SaveAs X3

[Stefan Rakete]

Hi,

I am trying to to save my document with JavaScript as PDF/X3

I tried the optional parameters for the saveAs

curDoc.saveAs(outputpath, "com.callas.preflight.pdfx");

but it will not save it as X3.

It there a way to go through the optimizer by script, change preferences ..

Thanks for any help.

Stefan

Execute the preflight? But how. Any examples. Thanks Stefan

For the use of preflight profiles in Javascript look at the Acrobat Javascript Reference.

I am assuming the JavaScript is within the PDF file you are trying to convert to PDF/X-3? If so, be aware that none of the ISO PDF/X specifications (including PDF/X-1a, PDF/X-3, PDF/X-4, and the upcoming PDF/X-6 specifications support Javascript within the PDF file. Thus, any attempt to use the Acrobat Pro functions to create a PDF/X file from a PDF file with embedded JavaScript will succeed.

Thanks, I now created a simple action to convert the document to X3. No need for JavaScript.
