Route on PDF+ files in Esko AE

Hi,

I'd like to route the creation software of any PDF in AE.
The routing allows PDF/Normalised PDF/PDFPLA, or I can do it by SmartName checking the Creation tool and/or the PDF Producer.
However, I noticed that the Creator tool is the same as the original PDF, which is not changed if the file is edited and saved in ArtPro+.

Has anyone found an alternative way of detecting if the file is created with ArtPro+?

Thanks!

/Hans
 
Hi Hans,

Could you try this trick? Create a Smartname and extract this XMP Xpath Query:

/*[local-name() = 'xmpmeta']/*[local-name() = 'RDF']/*[local-name() = 'Description']/*[local-name() = 'CreatorTool']/text()
