So it can happen that a certain PDF file can be opened with one reader and not with another. In addition, the PDF format is not suitable for long-term archiving. Invoices or other documents that have to be stored for decades should therefore be stored in PDF/A format in the ECM system. The ECM system also uses appropriate mechanisms to ensure that documen

Why DeviceLink profiles should interest you

In version 10, pdfToolbox introduced support for a wide range of DeviceLink profiles. They can be used – for free – from within the Switchboard or using a fixup in a preflight profile. And they can be really interesting for your production work! Hold on! What are DeviceLink profiles? That, of course, is a good and essential question, and I need to explain it before I can explain why you could use them.

Understanding Overprint

When working with support cases the ones that are related to Overprint parameters in PDF are always very likely to surprise customers. This is due to the fact that the Overprint rules in PDF are - compared to other rules, let's say for transparency - much less intuitive. I think this is because Overprint was invented for PostScript and nothing has been changed in these rules for PDF. That means Overprint was defined when technology was much less powerful than today and its rules had to take into

In PDF/UA (= Universal Accessibility), the specifications for barrier-free PDF documents are defined as an ISO standard. Wi

How does PDF 2.0 affect the printing industry?

For readers who aren't much aware of PDF 2.0, it is a consistent further development of the PDF standard, which incorporates numerous practical experiences and meaningful detail improvements - it is NOT a revolution that wants to create something completely new. In more than eight years, ISO has developed a 1,000 page standard as a further development of ISO 32000-1 (PDF 1.7). It contains extensions, clarifications, but also deprecations of PDF functions. Wherever standards are used - which in t
