Text and Line Art

Text is smaller than <list> points

Determines whether the PDF file contains text that is smaller than the font point size that you specify. The default is 5 points.

Text is smaller than <list> and is colored with <list> or more separations

Determines whether the PDF file contains text that is smaller than the font point size that you specify and is colored with the number of separations that you specify. The defaults are 8 points for the font and two separations.

Text is smaller than <list> points and white

Determines whether the PDF file contains white text that is smaller than the point size that you specify. The default is 5 points.

White text does not knock out

Determines whether the PDF file contains white text that does not knock out (that is, the text is invisible).
To knock out white text, select the Fix check box.

Black text is smaller than <list> points and does not overprint

Determines whether the PDF file contains black text that does not overprint and is smaller than the font point size that you specify.
To overprint the black text, select the Fix check box.

Text is invisible (text has no fill nor stroke color)

Determines whether the PDF file contains text that uses neither stroke nor fill (that is, the text is invisible).
To remove the invisible text, select the Fix check box.

Line weight is less than <list> points

Determines whether the PDF file contains lines narrower than the width value that you specify. The default is 2.0 points.
To increase the minimum line width, select the Fix check box.
Some software, such as Adobe Illustrator, creates color blends between path objects by overlapping objects of a similar shape, position, and color. This produces the visual effect of a shading object. To protect the blend of these objects, select the Protect Blend check box.
The following blend types are supported:

    • Radial blends with concentric circles that are increasing or decreasing
    • Axial blends with overlapping paths of a similar shape but a slightly different position
    • Interleaved blends made up of groups of paths with a similar shape but a slightly different position

Line weight is less than <list> points and is colored with <list> or more separations

Determines whether the PDF file contains lines narrower than the width value that you specify and that are colored with the number of separations that you specify. The defaults are 5.0 points and two separations.
To increase the minimum line width, select the Fix check box.

White objects do not knock out

Determines whether the PDF file contains white objects that are not set to knock out.
To knock out white objects, select the Fix check box.

Flatness tolerance is different than <list> points

Determines whether the flatness tolerance in the PDF file is different than the value that you specify. The flatness tolerance controls the maximum permitted distance in device pixels between the original path and an approximation of straight-line segments. In other words, flatness tolerance controls the precision of curve rendering.
To set the flatness tolerance in the PDF file to the number of points that you specify, select the Fix check box.

Maximum miter limit is above <list>

Determines whether the PDF file contains text and line art that has a miter limit above the number that you specify. The default is 10.0 points.
To decrease the miter limit of text and line art to the number specified, select the Fix check box.

Line art is invisible (line art has no fill nor stroke color)

Determines whether the PDF file contains line art that uses neither fill nor a stroke color (that is, the line art is invisible).
To remove the invisible line art, select the Fix check box.

Live Area

Measurement units

Determines the linear units used for the size of pages. You can select points, picas, inches, centimeters, or millimeters. The default is points.

Live area detection: Page contains text that is too close to the inside of the trim box

Determines how close text can be to the trim box.
To adjust the live area detection, type the desired values. By default, live area detection is turned off.
