About preflight inspections
The Preflight tool analyzes the contents of a PDF to determine its validity for print production and a variety of other
conditions that you can specify. Preflight inspects the file against a set of user-defined values, called preflight profiles.
Depending on the profile, the preflight inspection can also correct certain errors. Preflight also runs checks and fixups
on visible areas or certain objects, and makes PDFs comply with various standards.
Preflight identifies issues with colors, fonts, transparency, image resolution, ink coverage, PDF version compatibility,
and more. Preflight also includes tools for examining PDF syntax or the actual PDF structure of a document.
