ID Setting Description

Compatible Format

Click [] and select the version of the output PDF.

Select from [1.3], [1.4], [1.5], [1.6], [1.7], [PDF/X-1a:2001], [PDF/X-1a:2003], [PDF/X-3:2002], and [PDF/X-3:2003].

Note
  1. Depending on the selected PDF version, some items in [PDF Format] settings may not be configured.
  2. If [PDF Export Settings] - [Rasterised PDF] - [Generate Rasterised PDF] is checked, this item cannot be configured.

Don't Proof DieLine Inks

When the checkbox is checked, the ink set in the die line is not output.

Note
  1. For details on setting the ink to use as the die line, contact the administrator.

3

Available Inks

Configure the settings related to PDF output inks.

You can display a list of the inks specified in the job and their usage status in an ink list, and perform output control of the inks.

Note
  1. In the CMYK ink settings registered in the default settings, only the processing order of separations can be changed.
  2. Configure the ink management settings for the job in [Job Element Manager] - [Inks] pane.

Add: Adds an ink to the ink list. Click [] to select the ink and click [Add], and the selected ink is added to the ink list.

Delete: Deletes an added ink. Select an ink to delete in the ink list and click this to delete the ink.

(Print Mode): Set the printing method for spot colours. Click the icon on the right side of a spot colour ink name, and set the printing method.

: Outputs the spot colour ink separated into process colours.

: Outputs the spot colour ink as a spot colour ink.

: Does not output this ink.

Separation Order: Specifies the order for processing separations. To change the processing order, select an ink in the ink list and change the value in [Separation Order]. (The processing order of other separations is automatically changed.)

In Use: Checked when used in the assigned input data.

Process: Separates all the spot colour inks into process colours for output.

Spot: Outputs all the spot colour inks as spot colour inks.

Restriction
  1. To display a rasterised PDF that includes the spot colour media in Acrobat, set the overprint preview in Acrobat to "On". If the overprint preview is "Off", the CMYK object specified as overprint may not be displayed correctly.

4

Ink Setting Information

Displays the settings of the ink selected in the list.

Note
  1. The settings in [Job Element Manager] - [Inks] pane are displayed.

5

Flatten Transparency

To process PDF output by XMF with a traditional RIP system (PostScript process RIP), performs flattening transparent objects in advance for processing correctly.

When the checkbox is checked, transparency flattening is achieved using the transparency flattening process built into Adobe PDF Print Engine (APPE). The settings related to transparency flattening are enabled.

Note
  1. If a non-transparency-compliant PDF version (less than 1.5) is specified, flattening is automatically performed.
  2. If [PDF Export Settings] - [Rasterised PDF] - [Generate Rasterised PDF] is checked, this item cannot be configured.

6

Raster/Vector balance

Set the flattened objects to be rasterised or set as vector objects. As the set value becomes larger, flattened objects are processed as vector objects instead of simple objects.

When 100% is set, flattened objects are processed as vector objects as much as possible.

When 0% is set, all objects are rasterised.

7

Line Art and Text resolution

Set the resolution for the rasterised line art and text.

8

Gradient and Mesh resolution

Set the resolution for the rasterised gradient and Illustrator mesh objects.

Note
  1. Normally, set the same resolution as the resolution configured in [Line Art and Text resolution]. Even if a higher resolution than the resolution configured in [Line Art and Text resolution] is set, no further effect is archived.

9

Enfocus PDF Profile

Verifies the generated PDF according to the specified profile (postflight). Click [] and select a profile to use for verification.

Note
  1. The PDF verification executed in [Postflight Profile] is the same as the preflight in [Job Element Manager]. Check the contents of the created PDF.
  2. If [PDF Export Settings] - [Rasterised PDF] - [Generate Rasterised PDF] is checked, this item cannot be configured.
  3. If one of the PDF/X versions is set in [PDF Version], this configuration is not necessary. When a PDF/X version is set, the verification is performed automatically during PDF generation using a profile that matches the PDF/X version.
