PDF Geomapper technology
Until now, it was impossible to configure PDF Preflight to distinguish between objects that are needed to render or print a file and those that are not.
The PDF Geomapper will ignore or remove these unnessecary elements, and we have provided some default Action Lists to help with this. This truly unique technology completely erradicates false warnings and errors when using PDF Preflight.
Rectangles can be created to the size of PDF Page Boxes and with round corners
Adding Rectangles is something that a lot of users do within PitStop using the ‘Add object’ Action. One of the shortcomings of this functionality was that it worked to a fixed size or a variable, whereas often there was a need to generate a rectangle based on a PDF page box.
This is now possible and you can make round corners with a specified radius.
Operating system support
PitStop Server is now officially supported in both Mac OS X 10.12 (Sierra) and Windows 10 anniversary edition.
Reorder and delete pages
The Enfocus Inspector gains a new tab specifically for working with transparency, and some new functionality and options as well.
You now have the ability to select or toggle through Page and Transparency groups and also modify and correct the attributes of the groups directly within PitStop.
Updated Adobe Transparency Flattener
This version of PitStop Server contains the latest Adobe PDF Library Transparency flattener (v15.0.1PlusP1m).
41 Devicelink Profiles included as standard
With this version of PitStop we now include 41 Devicelink profiles for CMYK-CMYK conversions and managing Ink Coverage.
These are made possible by our sister company X-Rite.
Ink coverage check to ignore named separations via Restrictions
The ink coverage check within PitStop can now ignore technical inks, and additional special finishes such as varnishes or white separations.
There is no specific interface for this functionality, as it’s incorporated within the standard restrictions interface.
All you have to do is simply create a Restriction to select or ignore specific separations and apply it to the ink coverage check.
