Preflight alert options For each check in a profile, you specify how to handle mismatches during the inspection. You can select from the menu next to each alert icon. The icon for the alert appears next to the check in the Preflight dialog box. Error Generates an error message for this check (or any checks in this category). Choose this option for mismatches that you must correct before proceeding to the next stage in the workflow. Warning Generates a warning message for this check (or any checks in this category). Choose this option for mismatches that you want to know about and may need to correct before final output. Info Generates a simple note for this check (or any checks in this category). Choose this option for mismatches that you want to know about but do not need to correct before final output. Inactive Never generates an alert message for this check (or any checks in this category). Choose this option for mismatches that will not affect the output quality of the PDF document. You must change the state from Inactive to any other state to make the text boxes available. View a profile summary You can view a description of each check and its inspection criteria for a given profile by creating a profile summary. ❖ In the Preflight dialog box, select a profile, and choose Create Profile Summary from the Options menu. A profile summary is a PDF file. Additional checks About additional checks and properties The Preflight tool includes a collection of additional checks (called rules in previous versions of Acrobat) that you can add to a profile. These checks are available from the Custom Checks section of each profile. You can modify these checks in a variety of ways, depending on the PDF property they describe. Some properties are defined by a simple statement that is either true or false for a given object in a PDF-for example, "Font is not embedded" or "Color managed color used." Some property statements specify relationships between the actual value of a property (for example, text size or spot color name) and the value you enter in the dialog box (for example, "12" or "Deep blue"). Other statements compare numerical values.
