Submit files to a production system, Verify That PDF Files Are Consistent With The JDF Job Definition

Page 488 highlights

USING ACROBAT X PRO 482 Job Definition Format PDF Conversion Settings When the job definition is sent through the submission process, any referenced non-Adobe PDF files are converted to Adobe PDF. The conversion settings come from either the PDF Conversion Settings embedded in the job definition or the Default PDF Conversion Settings pop-up menu in the Submission Site dialog box. Any PDFs referenced by the job definition before submission are not affected by the specified PDF Conversion Settings. Verify That PDF Files Are Consistent With The JDF Job Definition Compares the information in the job definition with the associated files, and verifies that all associated files exist and are linked to the appropriate URL. Any inconsistencies in page sizes, inks, and the number of pages available in the associated documents result in an error. For example, an error is reported if the job definition specifies that pages 1 through 12 from document A will be used but document A contains only 8 pages. You can either fix the job definition to match the document, use other features to fix the document, or continue without making changes. Note: Not all errors are fixable. Combine PDF Files Into A Single PDF File Combines PDFs in the document hierarchy into a single PDF. A nonprinting annotation can optionally be added to the corner of each page, indicating the section name and page number of that page within the section. Important: This feature is not recommended for workflows that rely on PDF/X compatibility, because changes to the referenced PDFs may make them noncompliant with the PDF/X specification. Any noncompliance will be tested if the Preflight option is selected with an appropriate PDF/X profile. Insert Blank Pages Inserts blank pages into the combined PDF where no PDF pages are referenced (for example, if a section has been specified to contain 12 pages but no PDF has been referenced). Include Annotations Adds annotations to the submitted PDFs to indicate their position in the job. Preflight PDF Files Runs a preflight inspection of the associated PDFs. The preflight profile used is either the Preflight profile embedded in the job definition or the one selected in the Default Preflight profile pop-up menu in the Submission Site dialog box. Convert To A MIME Package And Submit To A JMF Device Packages the JDF file and associated PDFs as a single MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions) file. MIME is a specification for formatting non-ASCII messages so that they can be sent over the Internet, ensuring they do not get separated from each other. This allows the package to be sent to an output device that supports Job Messaging Format (JMF), at the URL you specify. JMF enables electronic devices to communicate over a network. Submit To A Folder Submits the JDF file and associated PDFs to the folder you specify in the Path box. Prompt User For A Folder Location At Submit Time Unlike the Submit To Folder option, this option lets you specify a folder to receive the submitted JDF and associated PDFs when the job is submitted. Submit files to a production system When you are ready to hand off the print job to submission, submit the job definition and associated PDFs to a preconfigured JDF-enabled production system. Depending on your selections in the Submission Setup dialog box, inconsistencies between the job definition and the PDF are listed, followed by the results of a preflight inspection. 1 In the JDF Job Definitions dialog box, select the job definition and click Submit. 2 If the Submission Site field is unspecified, choose a submission site from the Submit To menu. Otherwise, the submission site specified in the job will be shown and used. 3 Click Start. Last updated 10/11/2011

USING ACROBAT X PRO
Job Definition Format
Last updated 10/11/2011
PDF Conversion Settings
When the job definition is sent through the submission process, any referenced non-Adobe
PDF files are converted to Adobe PDF. The conversion settings come from either the PDF Conversion Settings
embedded in the job definition or the Default PDF Conversion Settings pop-up menu in the Submission Site dialog
box. Any PDFs referenced by the job definition before submission are not affected by the specified PDF Conversion
Settings.
Verify That PDF Files Are Consistent With The JDF Job Definition
Compares the information in the job definition with
the associated files, and verifies that all associated files exist and are linked to the appropriate URL. Any inconsistencies
in page sizes, inks, and the number of pages available in the associated documents result in an error. For example, an
error is reported if the job definition specifies that pages 1 through 12 from document A will be used but document A
contains only 8 pages. You can either fix the job definition to match the document, use other features to fix the
document, or continue without making changes.
Note:
Not all errors are fixable.
Combine PDF Files Into A Single PDF File
Combines PDFs in the document hierarchy into a single PDF. A nonprinting
annotation can optionally be added to the corner of each page, indicating the section name and page number of that
page within the section.
Important:
This feature is not recommended for workflows that rely on PDF/X compatibility, because changes to the
referenced PDFs may make them noncompliant with the PDF/X specification. Any noncompliance will be tested if the
Preflight option is selected with an appropriate PDF/X profile.
Insert Blank Pages
Inserts blank pages into the combined PDF where no PDF pages are referenced (for example, if a
section has been specified to contain 12 pages but no PDF has been referenced).
Include Annotations
Adds annotations to the submitted PDFs to indicate their position in the job.
Preflight PDF Files
Runs a preflight inspection of the associated PDFs. The preflight profile used is either the Preflight
profile embedded in the job definition or the one selected in the Default Preflight profile pop-up menu in the
Submission Site dialog box.
Convert To A MIME Package And Submit To A JMF Device
Packages the JDF file and associated PDFs as a single MIME
(Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions) file. MIME is a specification for formatting non-ASCII messages so that they
can be sent over the Internet, ensuring they do not get separated from each other. This allows the package to be sent
to an output device that supports Job Messaging Format (JMF), at the URL you specify. JMF enables electronic devices
to communicate over a network.
Submit To A Folder
Submits the JDF file and associated PDFs to the folder you specify in the Path box.
Prompt User For A Folder Location At Submit Time
Unlike the Submit To Folder option, this option lets you specify a
folder to receive the submitted JDF and associated PDFs when the job is submitted.
Submit files to a production system
When you are ready to hand off the print job to submission, submit the job definition and associated PDFs to a
preconfigured JDF-enabled production system. Depending on your selections in the Submission Setup dialog box,
inconsistencies between the job definition and the PDF are listed, followed by the results of a preflight inspection.
1
In the JDF Job Definitions dialog box, select the job definition and click Submit.
2
If the Submission Site field is unspecified, choose a submission site from the Submit To menu. Otherwise, the
submission site specified in the job will be shown and used.
3
Click Start.
