Select a different profile
Using different profiles is useful in many workflows. For example, you can select different profiles for documents you’re
editing at the same time, or you can select a new profile to begin a new production phase. When you select a different
profile, the document is reexamined.
1 Open the document.
2 In the Preflight panel, select a profile from the Profile menu.
If you want to use this profile whenever you work on this document, embed the profile. Otherwise, the document opens
using the default working profile.
Specify a page range for preflighting
❖ At the bottom of the Preflight panel, specify the page range (such as 1-8).
The rules for specifying page ranges are the same as in the Print dialog box. Errors that appear on pages outside this
page range are omitted from the error list.
Set Preflight options
1 Choose Preflight Options from the Preflight panel menu.
2 Specify the following options, and then click OK.
Working Profile Select the profile to use as the default for new documents. If you want the working profile to be
embedded in new documents, select Embed Working Profile Into New Documents. See Define a preflight profile .
Use Embedded Profile / Use Working Profile When you open a document, determine whether its embedded profile
or the specified working profile is used for preflighting.
Layers Specify whether items on all layers, visible layers, or visible and printable layers are included in preflighting.
For example, if an item is on a hidden layer, you can prevent errors from being reported on that item.
Non-Printing Objects Select this option to report errors on objects marked as non-printing in the Attributes panel
or on master page objects on pages to which Hide Master Items has been applied.
Objects On Pasteboard Select this option to report errors on objects placed on the pasteboard.
