Hi all,
Just a question or perhaps an observation regarding PDF/X.
After doing a few small tests it seems that a PDF/X-1a:2001 verification does not actually check the resolution of the images in the files. Or am I missing something?
Kind of dissapointing since it's a pretty major issue. I mean it's fine if you set your Export/Distiller options to downsample to 300dpi, but that doesn't guarantee that the source files are going to be above 300dpi does it? And again it's better to catch the problems before transmission, since it saves hours or even days of re-submission issues.
Thoughts, corrections?
Dwane.
