What Is an Enfocus PDF Queue?
The Enfocus PDF Queue: a Complete Certified PDF
Creation and Quality Assurance Workflow
An Enfocus PDF Queue is a complete Certified PDF
creation and quality assurance workflow. You create
an Enfocus PDF Queue in Instant PDF to convert your
source documents to output-ready Certified PDF
documents in a single step. “Output-ready” mean-
ing according to predefined parameters provided by
the PDF document receiver. The PDF Queue carries
out all the intermediate steps of the PDF creation
and quality assurance process automatically:
1 Add information about the PDF document in
the PDF document itself
2 Create not just a regular PDF document but a
Certified PDF document.
3 Correct the PDF document using Enfocus
Action Lists.
4 Preflight the PDF document using a Preflight
Profile.
5 Allow you to review the PDF document
6 Deliver the Certified PDF document by saving it
on a specific location or sending it to a recipi-
ent by e-mail or FTP.
