What's new?
PitStop Pro 11 introduces Smart Preflight & Correction - a flexible way of preflighting and correcting files to their specific production requirements. Until today, a Preflight Profile could only contain fixed checks and corrections e.g. the resolution of an image must be higher than 300 dpi or the page size should be A4. However, every job is different and comes with its specific order and production requirements. Therefore companies have to deal with many changing requirements like different page formats, different number of colors, different print destinations, etc. To truly check each job to its individual production requirements, you need to create a different Preflight Profile for every possible combination of values and conditions needed. The current situation requires many different Preflight Profiles that are very time-consuming to create and manage. Another option is to create more general Preflight Profiles that can be used for different types of jobs, but this results in less specific and accurate preflighting and corrections. Not anymore with PitStop Pro 11. Users no longer have to work with fixed values within a Preflight Profile, but can use preflight rules that can now depend on job and production specific information. Smart preflight has been introduced unleashing the full potential of checking and correcting PDF files within the PitStop Preflight engine. PitStop Pro 11 introduces the concept of 'Variable Sets' - a group of variables to be used when preflighting or correcting PDF files. These variables are substituted at run-time with the right values for the job. Smart Preflight is more powerful by being specific and accurate for each job, resulting in higher quality PDFs. The new version of PitStop Pro enables you to maximize the technology you already own and know today by using it in a smarter way. Smart Text Editing:
- Find and Replace text
The new Find and Replace text tool allows users to quickly locate specific text segments and immediately replace them. For example, you can easily correct misspellings globally, apply new branding styles, and more. These changes can be easily implemented and are quickly and efficiently handled saving precious time. - Merge characters and words into text lines.
PitStop Pro makes smart text manipulation easy with a new tool to automatically re-merge split text segments into a single line. This new feature eliminates the struggle to work with separate text segments and provides a more comfortable way to correct mistakes and edit and reposition text.
