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.
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 preflight profiles .
When you open a document, determine whether its embedded profile or the specified
working profile is used for preflighting.
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.
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.
