Analyzing a PDF Job

You can use the PDF analyzer to check imported PDF files for problems that may
affect processing. The PDF analyzer checks the following elements:

Document: identifies incompatibilities of Acrobat software with compression,
encryption, security, and other properties

Pages: detects empty pages and identifies the page size, annotations, and other
properties

Fonts: determines whether specific fonts are in the PDF file and whether they
are embedded

Colors: detects color space information, spot colors, rendering information, and
color management settings

Images: identifies image resolution, whether images are skewed or flipped, and
whether images are compressed

OPI: detects whether OPI is used. If so, the PDF analyzer detects the OPI version
and determines whether any high-resolution images in the OPI path are missing

Text and line art: identifies the size of text, the width of the lines, white text, and
objects and flatness tolerance

PDF/X: determines whether the file conforms to PDF/X-1a or to
PDF/X-3 and whether the file contains PostScript fragments

Note: You cannot use the PDF analyzer or perform a Preflight check on PDF
files that are locked or protected. If you do, a message will appear stating that
the file is encrypted.

Note: This feature is only available for the Pro Basic and Pro Control Station
configurations.
