New pdfCorrect now also embeds fonts
callas software, a specialist in the development of PDF verification and optimization tools, is now offering an update to its well-known correction tool pdfCorrect. It is available free to existing users and can be downloaded from the callas software Web site. The Adobe Acrobat plug-in for troubleshooting in PDF files has not only been optimized for the current version, version 8: It is now also able to embed missing fonts later on and to change and save the visibility of existing layers in PDFs. The pdfCorrect CLI command line module and the corresponding SDK have also been updated.
Berlin, April 20th 2007 One of the most important features of the new pdfCorrect is the possibility of embedding fonts in existing PDF files later on. This means that problems caused by missing or incorrect font characters no longer occur. In addition, the user can use the new pdfCorrect to redefine and save the visibility of layers in PDF files. This makes it possible to integrate more than one different language version in a single PDF but to only release the language relevant for the recipients. In this way, pdfCorrect allows users to flatten invisible and unnecessary layers to reduce the file size.
Being tried and tested and easy to use, pdfCorrect allows you to correct troublesome PDF files in no time at all. In this way, the plug-in for Acrobat 6, 7, and 8 guarantees almost 100% security even at the data creation stage, enabling the generation of PDF files that are optimized for printing. pdfCorrect is able to find up to 60 different typical errors that might cause problems during printing. These errors include common PDF defects such as incorrect overprint settings, defective image resolution, and unwanted embedded ICC profiles. Thanks to pdfCorrect, correcting errors in PDFs is no longer a job for specialists. It’s now something that can be carried out in seconds with a few clicks of the mouse.
callas software provides a command line version of pdfCorrect for the automated correction of PDF files and easy integration into existing workflows. As a result of this simple integration process into existing workflows (for example, with Helios or Gradual Full SWITCH/Power SWITCH), frequent PDF corrections can be carried out quickly and effectively. The new version of pdfCorrect CLI enables the automated changing or flattening of the visibility of layers for the first time. These new layer functions in the current pdfCorrect CLI command line module enable the quick, automated removal of crop marks and the separation of the die-cutting forme from the other pages. pdfCorrect is available from callas software as a plug-in for Adobe Acrobat 6, 7 and 8, or as a command-line module (CLI) for automated PDF workflows on Windows, Mac, Linux or Sun Solaris.
