Delete Check Add checks to a profile Acrobat includes several predefined preflight profiles, which you can use as is or modify to create custom profiles. You can modify a profile that nearly meets your needs by adding one or more checks that analyze the document using different criteria. For example, an existing check might detect all text that is not plain black-that is, text that uses black plus some amount of cyan, magenta, and yellow. Because this could be a problem when you print small text, you could modify the check so that it flags text objects that use more than one color and have a text size equal to or smaller than 12 points. You can reuse a check in any profile where it's needed. Keep in mind, however, that if you modify a check that's being used in multiple profiles, the check is modified in every profile that uses it. To avoid making unnecessary modifications, rename the check for a particular profile. Before editing a preflight profile, you must unlock it. 1 In the Preflight dialog box, select a profile, and click the Edit link next to the profile name, or choose Edit Preflight Profiles from the Options menu. 2 Choose Unlocked from the pop-up menu at the upper left. 3 Select Custom Checks from the list of items displayed under the profile name. 4 Work with the panels by doing any of the following: • To quickly find a specific check, type all or part of its name in the search box. Only those items containing the search term are displayed. Removing the name from the search box displays all the checks again. Last updated 9/30/2011
