Adobe Acrobat 7 Professional - Manual (Page 678)

Submitting files to a production system
When you are ready to hand off the print job to submission, submit the JDF job definition
and associated Adobe PDF files to a preconfigured JDF-enabled production system.
Depending on your selections in the Submission Setup dialog box, inconsistencies
between the job definition and the PDF file are listed, followed by the results of a
Preflight inspection. (See
Submission site options .) To add or update sites, see Creating
submission site instructions .
To submit the Adobe PDF file and JDF package:
1. In the JDF Job Definitions dialog box, select the job definition and click Submit.
2. Choose a submission site from the Submit To menu.
3. Click Start.
4. If inconsistency errors are listed in the Submit dialog box, select them to see if you can
correct them in the job definition. The Update JDF button becomes available if you can.
(You can also click Next and Previous to move among the fixable errors.)
5. To update the job definition, select an error and click Update JDF. The JDF job definition
automatically updates, and the error disappears. Some errors cannot be fixed completely.
In this case, a warning appears in place of the previous error.
6. When you have corrected all fixable errors, click Continue.
7. If you selected Preflight in the Submission Site dialog box, Acrobat performs a preflight
inspection on the PDF file and displays the results. (See Working with Preflight results .)
Note: To correct problems, you must use the source application or Acrobat Distiller.
8. Click OK to exit the Preflight dialog box and continue the submission.
The Submit dialog box indicates the results of the submission process. If the submission
fails, an alert describes why it failed. A JDF file isn't written, and a JDF package isn't sent
to a JDF device.
