Subscribing to a PDF
Queue-based Specification on
CertifiedPDF.net
Creating a New PDF Queue by Subscribing to a
Specification
You can create a new PDF Queue by subscribing to a
Specification containing a PDF Queue on Certified-
PDF.net. You can do this from within Instant PDF,
provided that you are a member of the Certified-
PDF.net community. The PDF Queue of the Specifi-
cation will then be installed locally in your version
of Instant PDF, but you will be notified of changes,
if any, to the corresponding PDF Queue in the Spec-
ification on CertifiedPDF.net. Furthermore, your
local PDF Queue will be kept synchronized with its
CertifiedPDF.net counterpart.
To create a new PDF Queue by subscribing to a PDF
Queue-based Specification on CertifiedPDF.net:
1 Choose File > Preferences > CertifiedPDF.net >
Membership and make sure that your e-mail
address and password are filled in correctly.
This is the e-mail address and password which you
use to log on to CertifiedPDF.net.
2 In the main Instant PDF window, click the PDF
Queues button to see list of PDF Queues.
3 Click the New button or choose PDF Queue >
New.
4 Select Subscribe to a specification from Certi-
fiedPDF.net and click OK.
5 Select the Specification which contains the
PDF Queue of your choice and click Subscribe.
The PDF Queue will be installed and will appear in
your list of Enfocus PDF Queues in the main Instant
PDF window. Its status will be Up-to-date with
CertifiedPDF.net.
You will be asked whether you want to check and,
if necessary, change the properties of the PDF
Queue. If so, click Yes to open the Enfocus PDF
Queue Editor.

a New PDF Queue Yourself” on page 86

Queues” on page 127
If you are not a member of CertifiedPDF.net
yet, you can click the Become a Member
button. Subscriber membership of Certi-
fiedPDF.net is a free-of-charge service.
You can only subscribe to Specifications that
contain a PDF Queue. If you select a Specifica-
tion that does not contain a PDF Queue, the
Subscribe button will appear dimmed and will
thus be unavailable. You can, of course,
always subscribe to these Specifications the
regular way, i.e. go to www.certifiedpdf.net,
subscribe to a Specification which does not
contain a PDF Queue and download and
install various components of this Specifica-
tion, e.g. a Preflight Profile and one or more
Action Lists. You can then use these compo-
nents when you create and configure a new
PDF Queue yourself. Refer to the Certi-
fiedPDF.net User Guide for more information.
