Run a preflight inspection

You can use or modify an existing profile, or create your own.

1

Open the PDF and select Advanced > Preflight.

2

If the Warning icon

appears in the upper right of the Preflight dialog box, click it to see potential problems in

viewing the PDF. These might include overprinting elements, or the influence of color management with or without
an embedded output intent. Click Adjust to resolve the conflict, or just close the dialog box.

3

Select a profile from the list.

Profiles are organized in groups that you can expand and collapse. Profiles with the gray wrench icon include fixups
that can correct errors in your file. The text beneath the profile name describes the profile’s purpose.

Important: Fixups permanently change the PDF. If you execute a fixup and want to undo the changes, choose Edit >
Undo immediately. You will not be prompted to save fixups.

4

For the options with check boxes, do any of the following:

Specify a page range for the inspection.

Specify whether to limit the inspection to visible layers. Selecting this option disables any fixups.

Run the inspection without fixing errors. Select this option if you want to view errors without changing the PDF.

5

Click Execute, or choose Execute Preflight Profile from the Options menu. When the inspection is finished, the

results appear in the Preflight dialog box. If you get a message that fixups are disabled, make sure that you have not
selected Run Preflight Checks For Visible Layers Only.
