Property groups

The properties for defining a check are grouped in categories. You can view a list of all property groups in the Edit
Check dialog box. In addition, you can view the individual properties that make up each group, as well as an expla­
nation of how the Preflight tool uses the properties.

The following property groups are available:

Text

Includes information about how text is rendered, whether it is scaled anamorphically or slanted, or whether it

can be mapped to Unicode and thus copied or exported correctly.

Font

Describes all aspects of a font in which text is rendered. Note that text size is a text property, not a font property,

because a font can be used at many sizes throughout a PDF document. Text size is included in the Text property
group.

Image

Includes image resolution, bit depth, number of pixels, rendering intent, and more.

Colors

Includes color characteristics, such as color spaces, alternate color spaces, patterns, and spot colors. Alternate

color spaces enable Acrobat to display or print certain spot colors and multicomponent spot colors (DeviceN). For
example, to reproduce the color orange on a monitor or printer, the PDF requires an alternate color space (made up
of RGB or CMYK colors) that defines what the spot color looks like.

ICC Color Spaces

Includes properties for accessing the characteristics in the embedded ICC profiles, which define

the ICC color spaces. ICC profiles contain data for translating device-dependent color to a device-independent color
space, such as Lab. This helps you reproduce color consistently across different platforms, devices, and ICC-
compliant applications (such as Adobe Illustrator and Adobe InDesign). A document that contains objects in
different color spaces (such as RGB, CMYK, and Grayscale) could have different ICC profiles for calibrating the color
for each color space.

Graphic State Properties For Fill

Includes graphic state information about how areas are filled, particularly the color

values of the current color space.

Graphic State Properties For Stroke

Includes graphic state information about how lines are drawn, particularly the

color values of the current color space, as well as line-specific properties, such as thickness.

General Graphic State Properties

Includes settings that control how text, graphics, or images are displayed in a PDF

page. Overprint settings, for example, are included here.

Halftone

Includes graphic state settings relevant to prepress operations, such as screen angles, frequencies, and spot

shapes.
