Configuring Preflight settings

At minimum, preflight can validate the file and check formatting, 

verify the image format (resolution, color space, and color profile), 

fonts, and verify references to OPI image server images. The 

preflight validation depends on the profile you select. The 

administrator defines preflight profiles using Adobe Acrobat 

Professional’s profile repository and Xerox custom profiles. The 

operator can select a profile to use as the default profile for a 

specific workflow.

The Xerox FreeFlow Recommended Preflight profile, provided 

with the FreeFlow Process Manager product, includes the 

following checks:

•

Font is not embedded

•

Image resolution is less than 250 ppi

•

Bitmap (1bit monochrome) image resolution is less than 600 

ppi

•

Document is damaged and needs repairs

•

PDF contains errors or is damaged

Preflight can also be used to automatically filter and route 

incoming PDF files. This is done by setting up multiple preflight 

nodes as filters at key points in a workflow to check for specific 

conditions. Based on the results, the file is directed to the 

appropriate process or workflow branch.
