9.6 What is an Enfocus Certified PDF document?

Acrobat metadata

Any regular PDF document contains metadata, i.e. information about the document itself. The

Document Properties dialog box of Adobe Acrobat, for example, includes the following metadata:

• Creation and modification date of the PDF document.

• The application with which the PDF document was created.

• The PDF version.

• File size.

• The name and path of the PDF file.

• Number of pages.

• Page size.

Enfocus metadata

An Enfocus Certified PDF document can be enriched with the following metadata:

• A reference to one or more source documents on which the PDF document was based.

• A Preflight Profile.

• A preflight report.

• User and system identification.

• An edit log, listing all the changes done in the PDF document per editing session (the time in

which the PDF document was opened, edited and saved).

• Session comments.

9.7 Setting the Enfocus Certified PDF user identification

An Enfocus Certified PDF document can contain two types of user identification: personal information

and system information. Each of these serves its own purpose:

• The personal information is your name and company contact details, together with a message,

if any. You can fill this in so that people know how to reach you if they should have any questions

about edit or preflight actions done in the PDF document. This information is required for an

efficient use of the Certified PDF workflow and is used as Sender data in the e-mail notifications.

• The system information consists of the details of the person who registered Enfocus PitStop

Server and information taken from your operating system, network and computer. This

information cannot be changed and is therefore a reliable source to pinpoint responsibility, for

example. If people claim or disclaim responsibility for a given change made in the PDF document,

the system information will provide incontestable proof. This information will be used in the

edit log to show who made which changes in a given session.

To set the Certified PDF user identification:
