Interpreting the Edit Log
Depending on the product that was used to per-
form the edits on the Certified PDF document, the
edit log will display more or less information. Typi-
cally, the edits are recorded in the following for-
mat:
“Product abbreviation: Edit Description (Page #)”
For example, if somebody deleted an image using
Enfocus PitStop Pro, the following message might
appear in the Edit Log:
“PP: Remove Selection (Page 5)”
The following abbreviations are used to identify the
Enfocus products in the Edit Log:
•IP: Instant PDF
• PP: PitStop Pro
• CW: Enfocus Certified PDF
• PS: PitStop Server
• PEX: PitStop Extreme
• PCO: PitStop Connector
Viewing the Editing Sessions
About Sessions
The Certified PDF mechanism in Instant PDF allows
you to consult the history of your PDF document.
This means that you can view a chronological list of
all the editing sessions that your Certified PDF doc-
ument has run through. A session comprises all the
changes that were made between two saves of the
document.
The Sessions List
The chronological list of sessions contains the fol-
lowing information:
• The Certified PDF product that “stamped” the
session.
• The person or company responsible for the
session.
• The end date and time of the session.
To view the list of editing sessions:
1 Open the PDF document in Adobe Acrobat.
2 Click the Status button ( or depend-
ing on the status of the document) on the File
toolbar.
The Enfocus Certified PDF Status dialog box appears.
3 Click the Sessions tab.
The Sessions list appears, displaying the document
history.
