About rules and conditions

Each rule in a profile governs a particular document property. The properties that make up
rules are organized by categories. (See

About property groups

.) A condition is a simple

statement that is either true or false for a given object in an Adobe PDF file, for example,
"Font is not embedded" or "Color managed color used."

Conditions column in the Edit Profiles dialog box

You can create conditions for all objects that can be inspected, including file size, the last
modification date, number of pages, page size, comments, form fields, printer marks, text
objects, vector objects, images, and so on. Some condition statements specify
relationships between the actual value of a property (for example, text size or spot color
name) and the value you enter in the dialog box (for example, "12" or "Deep blue"). Other
statements compare numerical values, or define Boolean properties such as "has
TrimBox" or "is spot color."
