| Document | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Add missing SPACE glyphs | If an embedded font does not have a glyph entry for the SPACE character the missing glyph is added to the font. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Append string to file name after processing PDF | Appends a string to file name (before the .pdf suffix, if present) of the PDF document after successfully processing it. This fixup is only being applied when used in batch mode or with a Droplet. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Apply ZIP compression to uncompressed stream objects | Applies ZIP compression (called Flate in the PDF specification) to stream objects that are not compressed (excluding Metadata which should always be left as uncompressed plain text). |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Convert TrueType fonts to CID | Re-encodes a TrueType font into a CID based TrueType font. If the TrueType font contains a Differences array, it is removed when applying this fixup. Some ISO-based standards prohibit the use of Differences arrays. This fixup will only convert fonts that are embedded into the PDF file. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Convert all embedded non PDF files to PDF | Converts all embedded files that are not of type PDF into PDF files if possible. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Convert fonts to outlines | Converts fonts to outlines. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Discard embedded thumbnails | Discards thumbnails embedded in PDF document. Embedding of thumbnails typically is not necessary anymore as Acrobat and Adobe Reader create them on the fly if they are needed. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Embed file | |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Embed missing fonts | If a PDF uses fonts which are not embedded into the PDF file they are embedded when using this fixup. It is required that the respective fonts are available in the operating system or in a specified folder. Some fonts may have a flag indicating that their licence does not allow embedding. In this case the fonts are not embedded into the PDF. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Fix font encoding (CIDSet) | This fixup creates a CIDSet for font subsets as required by some ISO standards such as PDF/A. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Fix font encoding (CIDToGIDMap) | This fixup sets a missing CIDToGIDMap to “Identity”. Some ISO standards such as PDF/A require that a CIDToGIDMap is present for all Type 2 CIDFonts. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Fix font encoding (CharSet) | This fixup creates a CharSet for font subsets as required by some ISO standards such as PDF/A. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Fix glyph width information | This fixup normalizes the glyph width information of the PDF and the fonts as required by some ISO standards such as PDF/A. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Initial view | The way a PDF is presented in a PDF viewer can be modified and saved within a PDF document. There are options for Layout and Magnification, Window options and User interface options. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Insert CMap for CID fonts | This fixup inserts CMaps for CID fonts if it is missing in the font. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Insert missing Type entry in StructElem objects | PDF/A-1 requires that StructElem objects in a tagged PDF must contain a "Type" entry with a value of "StructElem". By applying this fixup the "Type" entry is added in all StrucElem objects in a PDF document as necessary. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Make font name unique | This fixup adds a prefix to the names of embedded fonts. In that way problems with equal font names but different glyphs can be prevented. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Map structure to predefined types | Tagged PDF allows the use of custom structure elements. Some PDF based ISO standards require that only predefined tags are used. This fixup maps all custom structure elements to the standard paragraph tag <P> by adding these entries to the internal mapping table "Role Map" of the PDF. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Optimize the PDF for fast web view | Optimizes the PDF for fast web view. Linearizes the PDF such that it can be served more quickly over the internet by a web server that supports byte serving. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Prepare encoding entry in TrueType fonts for PDF/A-1 | Converts the encoding entry in TrueTypes fonts into a name object with the name of the encoding as its value as required by PDF/A-1. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Protect object level metadata | Protects object level metadata, for example for images, against removal during processes like transparency flattening. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Recompress LZW as ZIP | Recompresses any objects compressed as LZW into ZIP (internally called Flate). This is a completely lossless processing step that may be required if the PDF is to be converted to PDF/X or PDF/A (for which LZW is prohibited). |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Reduce structure to predefined types | Tagged PDF allows the use of custom structure elements. Some assistive devices though only support predefined standard structure elements. This fixup remaps custom structure elements to predefined structure elements. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Remove CIDSet if incomplete | CIDSets are used in embedded subset fonts in order to list all glyphs that are present in the font file. They are not required in a valid PDF file. Some PDF based ISO standards like PDF/A-2 require that if a CIDSet is present it has to be complete. It may therefore be useful to remove a CIDSet if incomplete. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Remove CharSet if incomplete | CharSets are used in embedded subset fonts in order to list all glyphs that are present in the font file. They are not required in a valid PDF file. Some PDF based ISO standards like PDF/A-2 require that if a CharSet is present it has to be complete. It may therefore be useful to remove a CharSet if incomplete. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Remove additional encoding entries in cmap of symbolic TrueType fonts | Some PDF ISO standards require that an embedded symbolic TrueType font must not define more than one encoding in its cmap table. This fixup tries to remove all but one encoding in a way that the PDF will not change its appearance. If this is not possible, it will not modify the PDF file at all. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Remove embedded files | Removes embedded files to decrease the file size. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Remove job tickets | Removes job ticket information embedded in a PDF document. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Remove object metadata protection | Removes protection for object level metadata which has been inserted into a PDF file by using the fixup “Protect object level metadata”. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Remove, apply or adjust object compression | This fixup applies one out of several object compression options: Object compression can be applied to just the document structure, the entire file, or it can be removed. PDF/X-1a, PDF/X-3 and PDF/A-1 prohibit the use of object compression. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Repair invalid ToUnicode CMap information in fonts | Repairs syntactical problems in the ToUnicode CMap of CID fonts. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Repair invalid bookmark hierarchies | Repairs syntactical problems in the bookmark structure. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Set PDF Version | This fixup only sets the PDF version, but does not adjust any features in the PDF document. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Set relationship entry for embedded files | The AFRelationship entry is used in PDF/A-3 files in order to define the type of relationship between an embedded file and the PDF into which it is embedded. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Set values to implementation limits of PDF/A if possible | The PDF/A standard requires that a PDF follows all implementation limits of Acrobat 5. This fixup repairs the values if possible without modifying the appearance of the PDF file. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Document | Subset fonts | Creates font subsets of fully embedded fonts to minimize the filesize. |
| Document info and Metadata | |||

| Configurable operation | Group: Document info and Metadata | Set document language entry | Sets the language for a PDF document. This fixup may be useful to prepare PDF documents for conversion to PDF/A-1a. |
| Color spaces, spot colors, inks | |||
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Adjust colors for PDF based ISO standards | Adjusts the colors in the PDF file to comply with the requirements of PDF based ISO standards such as PDF/A. Therefore an RGB or Gray Output Intent is embedded, and/or device-dependent CMYK colors are tagged with a CMYK ICC source profile. The Output Intents and the CMYK ICC profile are optimized for size to keep the PDF file size as small as possible. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Adjust dot gain | Tone values of the specified objects can be adjusted by applying dot gain curves. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Convert NChannel to DeviceN by removing NChannel entries in a DeviceN color space | NChannel is an extension to a DeviceN color space introduced in PDF 1.6 (Acrobat 7). It enhances color conversion and proofing for DeviceN color spaces but is neither supported in earlier versions of the PDF format nor by PDF/X-1a, PDF/X-3 and PDF/A. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Convert RGB colors using Quick Conversion (Office-RGB) | The Quick Conversion method performs a tranformation of RGB colors to CMYK as specified in the PostScript Reference Language Manual. This type of conversion is often better for colors from office documents than the results of ICC based color conversions. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Convert Registration color to black | Registration color (Separation All) can be converted to CMYK (100% DeviceCMYK), black as grayscale (100% DeviceGray) or to a spot color named Black (100% Separation Black). |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Convert colors | The “Color Convert” fixup offers very powerful and flexible options for converting colors in many ways, allowing for highly customizable color conversion settings. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Convert colors using DeviceLink profiles | DeviceLink profiles are especially intended to convert colors within one color model, e.g. to convert from one CMYK color space to another. The DeviceLink Add-on of pdfToolbox comes with a set of the most commonly needed DeviceLink profiles. The extended DeviceLink profile set of pdfToolbox Server/CLI can be configured in pdfToolbox plug-in to export a pdfToolbox profile for Server/CLI execution. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Embed Output Intent | Embed a PDF/A, PDF/E and/or PDF/X Output Intent. This can be useful in a callas pdfaPilot profile that converts a PDF document to a PDF/A, PDF/E and/or PDF/X file. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Knockout white vector and/or text objects | Set white objects to knock out - white objects should usually be set to knock out, as otherwise they may simply disappear when the PDF is printed. In some cases though they are used to knock out process colors while overprinting spot colors. In this case this fixup should not be used. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Make HKS spot color names consistent | Normalizes the spelling of HKS spot color names according to the HKS swatch color libraries. In addition problems where different HKS suffixes (e.g. "N" and "Z") are used for the same spot color are fixed. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Make Pantone spot color names consistent | Normalizes the spelling of PANTONE spot color names according to the Pantone swatch color libraries. In addition problems where different Pantone suffixes (e.g. "C" and "U" for coated and uncoated paper) are used for the same spot color are fixed. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Make custom spot color names consistent | Fixes problems where different spelling has been used for arbitrary spot color names. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Make spot color appearance consistent | Unifies the appearance of spot colors in cases where the same spot color is specified more than once in a PDF, using slightly different representations in each case. With this fixup, the first occurrence of the spot is used. The fixup can be customized to ask at runtime which instance to use. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Map colors | This fixup searches for a specified color and replaces it with a new color. When working within one color model (like from CMYK to CMYK) also single pixels of images can be mapped. Moreover intermediate values can be mapped, e.g. if there are lighter and darker gradations of a specific color. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Map spot and process colors | Spot colors and process colors can be modified when applying this fixup. The name, alternate color space and overprint status of spot colors can be modified individually. Furthermore spot colors can be converted to CMYK. Process colors defined as DeviceCMYK, Separation, DeviceN and DeviceGray can be mapped by using the Source color names with the exact spelling "Cyan", "Magenta", "Yellow" and "Black". When colors are mapped to process colors the alternate color is set automatically to the respective values. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Merge spot color name if appearance is identical | Fixes problems where different spot color names are used for the same spot color appearance. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Normalize spot color appearance | Adjusts spot color appearances to match those of the corresponding color definitions associated with this fixup. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Normalize spot color names | Normalizes the spelling of PANTONE and HKS spot color names according to the Pantone or HKS swatch color libraries. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Overprint black | Set black objects to overprint - for black objects it is often preferable that they are set to overprint. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Remove Black generation (BG) entry | Black Generation (BG) entries affect conversion of RGB color (DeviceRGB) to CMYK process color and may interfere with the settings in an output device |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Remove ICC profile(s) from Output Intent(s) | Remove ICC profile(s) from all Output Intents present in the PDF document without removing the Output Intents. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Remove ICC source profiles if identical to profile in Output Intent | It is a provision of the PDF/X-4 standard that a PDF file must not contain any ICC source profiles identical to that in the PDF/X OutputIntent. This provision avoids the possibility of differing output depending on different implementations of PDF rendering. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Remove Rendering Intents | This fixup removes all explicitly defined Rendering Intents. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Remove UCR | Under Color Removal (UCR) settings affect conversion of RGB color (DeviceRGB) to CMYK process color and may interfere with the settings in an output device |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Remove all Output Intent(s) | Remove all Output Intent(s) that are present in the PDF document. Removing an Output Intent can be a necessary step for repurposing a PDF/X or PDF/A file. It is also sometimes desirable to remove Output Intents if the file size must be reduced, for example if a low resolution version of a PDF is prepared for distribution over the internet. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Set ICC profile for Output Intent(s) | Sets the ICC profile for the Output Intent(s) in the PDF document. At least one PDF/X or PDF/A Output Intent must already be present or must be established by a separate fixup for the same profile in which this fixup is used. If both a PDF/X and a PDF/A Output Intent are present, the same ICC profile will be associated with them. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Set Overprint Mode to 1 | Sets the Overprint Mode to 1. Note that this will always only have an effect on DeviceCMYK vector, text or image mask objects that are already set to overprint, and for which at least one of the four CMYK channels is set to 0% for stroking or filling the object. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Set Overprint and Knockout | Change overprint and overprint mode to define objects as knockout or overprint. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Set Rendering Intent | Sets the Rendering Intent for all or selected objects, if applicable, based on current Rendering Intent settings. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Set halftone dictionary | Defines the required values for a Type 5 halftone dictionary and applies the halftone dictionary to all page content in the PDF document. It is important to add entries in this fixup for all colorants. There is one sample fixup included in callas pdfaPilot that can serve as a guidance. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Color spaces, spot colors, inks | Set transparency blend color space | Sets the transparency blend color space to the selected color space. It is also possible to make the blend color space simply compliant with PDF/X-4; this standard requires that the blend color space must not be identical to the one of the Output Intent. The blend color space should be set to DeviceCMYK instead. |
| Pages | |||
| Configurable operation | Group: Pages | Add marks | Marks are created according to the TrimBox and BleedBox. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Pages | Auto-correct page geometry boxes | Automatically corrects nesting of page geometry boxes (TrimBox or ArtBox, BleedBox, CropBox, MediaBox - in that order) if necessary. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Pages | Convert page into image | Converts a page into an image. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Pages | Create bleed | Bleed is created by upscaling of the pages. As pages may be upscaled unproportionally a maximum distortion can be specified. If the distortion of the pages is higher than specified the fixup is not executed and no bleed is created. If the value for the maximum distortion is set to 0 all pages are scaled proportionally. Then the bleed of the long edge is as specified and the bleed of the short edge is larger than specified. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Pages | Crop pages | Crops pages to the bounding box of objects on each page. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Pages | Derive page geometry boxes from crop marks | Inserts TrimBox and BleedBox on the basis of existing crop marks. |

| Configurable operation | Group: Pages | Remove objects outside page area | Remove all page objects that are completely outside of the selected page geometry box. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Pages | Remove page geometry boxes | Removes the selected page geometry boxes from all pages in the PDF document. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Pages | Remove page scaling factor | Removes page scaling factors (user unit entries) from pages. Page scaling factors are specified in the PDF 1.6 specification for the first time. They are therefore not allowed in some ISO based standards based on earlier versions of PDF. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Pages | Rotate pages | Rotate pages by the defined angle. If there is a page rotation parameter it is applied. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Pages | Scale page content only | Scales the page content to a given percentage without changing the page dimension. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Pages | Scale pages | Scales all pages in the PDF. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Pages | Set media box to origin | Sets the MediaBox to the origin 0/0. The visual appearance of the PDF does not change. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Pages | Set page geometry boxes | Sets page geometry boxes either relatively to an existing page geometry box or to absolute coordinates. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Pages | Set page geometry boxes (page box dimensions) | Set page geometry boxes by specifying page box dimensions. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Pages | Set page scaling factor | The page scaling factor (user unit entry) changes the effective size of a page. This fixup adds a page scaling factor to pages so that the size of these pages is modified. The page scaling factor makes it possible to have page sizes greater than 200 x 200 inch which is the maximum size for pages without page scaling factor. |
| Page contents | |||
| Configurable operation | Group: Page contents | Adjust or remove Image Interpolate entry | Adjusts or removes the Interpolate entry for images. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Page contents | Apply or remove transfer curves | Applies or removes transfer curves. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Page contents | Convert SMask to image mask | Converts a soft mask (SMask) that does actually not use transparency into an image mask. Soft masks using transparency will not be converted. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Page contents | Create an invisible text copy for all text | Makes an invisible copy of all text. This can be used in combination with "Convert page into image" in order to enable text features like copying or searching even for those pages that are converted into images. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Page contents | Discard private data from other applications | Removes private data stored in a PDF file by other applications. This fixup can help reduce file size substantially in certain cases but may affect features in other applications that rely on such private data. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Page contents | Downsample/compress color images | Downsamples, compresses or recompresses color images. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Page contents | Downsample/compress grayscale images | Downsamples, compresses or recompresses grayscale images. |

| Configurable operation | Group: Page contents | Recompress JPEG 2000 images as JPEG | Recompresses images compressed as JPEG 2000 into JPEG. The quality level of the resulting JPEG compression can be specified. Some PDF based ISO standards require that images are not compressed as JPEG 2000. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Page contents | Reduce image bit depth | Reduces the bit depth of 16 bit images to 8 bit. PDF/X-1a, PDF/X-3 and PDF/A-1a allow only a bit depth of up to 8 bit. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Page contents | Remove BX...EX entries | Removes BX...EX entries in page descriptions. BX...EX is sometimes used to bracket new page operators in order to establish a certain degree of backward compatibility with old PDF viewers. A PDF viewer may ignore page operators bracketed with BX...EX if it cannot support it. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Page contents | Remove OPI information | Removes OPI information. PDF/X and PDF/A prohibit the presence of OPI entries in compliant PDF documents. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Page contents | Remove alternate images | Removes all alternate images or alternate images not set as default for printing. |

| Configurable operation | Group: Interactive elements and properties | Remove JavaScript not associated with actions | Removes JavaScript which is not part of an action. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Interactive elements and properties | Remove actions | Removes actions. Note: PDF/X and PDF/A prohibit actions in PDF compliant documents. |
| Layers | |||
| Configurable operation | Group: Layers | Adjust OCCDs for PDF based ISO standards | PDF/X-4 and other PDF-based ISO standards such as PDF/X-5 require that layers (optional content) are used in a specific way to guarantee unambiguous rendering of a PDF/X-4 file that contains layers. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Layers | Apply OCCD setup | Applies an OCCD view setup that was saved using the Layer Explorer tool. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Layers | Configure OCCD | Optional content configuration dictionaries (OCCD) contain one or more layers and determine their visibility state. If the user selects an OCCD the visibility of all of the layers is switched to the defined state. This fixup allows the user to add or remove layers from or to OCCDs. Use the "+" button in order to add or remove layers. PDF/X-4 requires that if layers are present these are organized into OCCDs to make clear which ones are intended for output and which ones carry additional information. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Layers | Create layer name for all layers without name | Automatically names all unnamed layers using a sequential "Layer 1", "Layer 2" etc format. This allows for changing the visibility of layers which otherwise cannot be modified in Acrobat. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Layers | Discard hidden layer content and flatten visible layers | All objects on currently invisible layers are discarded and all layers, including visible ones, are flattened (removed from the document). |
| Configurable operation | Group: Layers | Make current visibility default visibility | All currently visible layers are set to initially visible and all currently invisible layers are set to initially invisible. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Layers | Put objects on layer | All objects identified by the selected check are put on an existing or new layer. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Layers | Set layer default to ON/OFF | Sets default layer visibility when the PDF document is opened. Usually this is also the same as the initial visibility state of the layer, however the initial visibility setting can also be changed e.g. visible even if the default is OFF by using another fixup. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Layers | Set layer initial export state | Sets the initial export state of the defined layers. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Layers | Set layer initial print state | Sets the initial print state of the defined layers. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Layers | Set layer initial visibility state | Sets the initial visibility of the defined layers. Default behaviour is that layers are visible if they are ON. This may be changed so that they are e.g. visible even if their default is OFF by setting the initial visibility to “Always visible”. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Layers | Set layer intent | Sets the layer intent to either “View” or “Reference”. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Layers | Set layer state to Locked/Unlocked | Sets the defined layers to either locked or unlocked. |
| Configurable operation | Group: Layers | Set layer visibility dependent on a zoom level | Sets the selected layers to being visible only within the defined zoom range. |
