5.6 Adding Action Lists to Preflight Profiles
About adding Action Lists to Preflight Profiles
Before you perform a preflight check in your PDF document, you may want to edit your PDF
document first. And you may want to use Action Lists to perform a number of Global Changes. For
example, you may have a number of Action Lists to correct or change colors in your PDF document.
Instead of running these Action Lists separately and then performing the preflight check, it may
be a better idea to include these Action Lists to your Preflight Profile. You will then kill two birds
with one stone:
• The Action Lists in the Preflight Profile will be run first.
• The Preflight Profile will check the selected properties of your PDF document and fix problems,
if any.
To add Action Lists to a Preflight Profile
1. Open the Enfocus Processing - Preflight panel.
2. Double-click the Preflight Profile you want to change.
The Enfocus Preflight Profile Editor will open.
3. Click the Action Lists category. Select the checkbox next to it to enable the Action Lists category.
4. Click this button and select an Action List to check properties or fix problems. You can add
Action Lists that contain only changes to the Changes listbox and you can add Action Lists that
contain only checks to the Checks listbox.
