About PDF/VT file formats 109 About PDF/VT file formats The PDF/VT file format is designed to enable variable document printing (VDP) in a variety of environments. PDF/VT documents contain the final content elements and associated metadata, but not any variables or templates. The predecessor standard ISO 16612-1:2005 specified the PPML/VDX formats based on PDF 1.4. However, this older standard was missing several PDF features and relied on constructs external to PDF. The modern standard PDF/VT is based on the PDF/X-4 and PDF/X-5 standards and supports PDF 1.6 features including transparency, layers, and ICC-based color management. In addition to the requirements of PDF/X, the PDF/VT standard adds supplementary features to PDF to meet the requirements of high-volume personalized printing. PDF/VT enables high-performance rendering (RIPing) of digital print files by adding efficient resource management to PDF. As PDF/X includes color management features and support for ICC color profiles, PDF/VT inherits the same features. The IC-309m print controller supports the following PDF/VT file formats: ● PDF/VT1 ● PDF/VT2 ○ PDF/X4 ○ PDF/X4p ○ PDF/X4pg ○ PDF/X5g Deleting reusable elements Variable data printing (VDP) elements that are no longer in use take up valuable disk space on the IC-309m print controller. To free up disk space, you can delete the reusable elements that you no longer need. The IC-309m print controller caches reusable elements per job, and displays a list of the cached elements in the Reusable Elements management area in the Resource Center. Reusable elements are cached as PDL elements. Note: The Reusable Elements Management tool is only available with the Action Pack.
