IDCS5 Win/Mac PDF Export preset options

[JADarnell]

I am writing a plugin that is required to set 27 PDF Export presets prior to exporting a single page to a PDF document.  I have tracked down 25 of these presets ( a couple, thanks to this forum) but I have no idea what I should use to set the final two options.  I have searched IPDFExportPrefs, searching for key words that might give me a hint to no avail.  The options are:

1.) On the Output page of the PDF Presets dialog, in the Color box I am required to set Color Conversion to "No Color Conversion."  I have searched for "kNoConversion", "Conversion", "Destination" and "Convert" (the last two are key words in the options a user might choose in the dropdown control).  I get hits but none of them are remotely related to color conversion, as far as I can tell.

2.)  On the Compression page in the Color and Grayscale Images group boxes, each has a dropdown control to select "Image Quality."  I am required to set it at Maximum.  Again, I have searched on "ImageQuality", "Maximum", "Quality" and "Medium" the latter a keyword in one of the dropdown choices.  I find enums that use "Maximum" and "Medium" in their definition lists, but I can find no function that actually uses these values (after finding these enums I searched for one of the values in the list...in this particular header the author kindly lists the values available for use with each member function).

I would greatly appreciate any assistance the forum could render.

I've given up to hard wire all those PDF export values, instead I run an embedded script.

You'd need

app.pdfExportPreferences.colorBitmapQuality = CompressionQuality.MAXIMUM;

app.pdfExportPreferences.colorBitmapQuality = CompressionQuality.MINIMUM;

app.pdfExportPreferences.pdfColorSpace = PDFColorSpace.UNCHANGED_COLOR_SPACE;

and so forth.

The equivalent would be

kSetPDFExportPrefsCmdBoss

IID_IPDFEXPORTPREFS=>SetPDFExCompressColorImages()

Maximum is mapped to kExportCompressImagesAutoLZWJPEGHigh,

Minimum is mapped to kExportCompressImagesAutoLZWJPEGLow

IID_IPDFEXPORTPREFS=>SetPDFExColorSpace()

kExportPDFColorSpacePassthru

Thanks, Dirk.  I appreciate the information.  This is going to make a certain management type very happy.
