Question

Druckproduktion/Preflight Check PDF/UA is missing

I cannot find anymore the preflight options for checking PDF/UA. Some weeks ago I worked with them. I need them go create "barrierefreie pdfs". I need the Preflight-Korrektur PDF/UA and the check.

Preflight is still in Acrobat DC Pro, but its tool panel might not be visible in your right-hand panel.

 

To bring up the Preflight panel:

  1. Go to Tools tab in the upper left of the Acrobat window. Or click the little grey wrench at the bottom of the right-hand panel. This opens the tools panel.
     

     Scroll down to the PDF Standards tool, and select to "Add" it to the right-hand panel.

     
  2. Open the PDF Standards panel and select Preflight.
     
  3. Select the PDF/UA section and click to expand it.
     

     

  4. Select the little grey wrench for Fix problems in PDF tagging structure.
  5. Then select the magnifying glass button Analyze and Fix in the lower right of the dialogue box.

You need to check your middle dropdown circled in the image below. It is at the top center of the preflight panel. Ensure that it is set to PDF Standards. You will see more options.
