There’s also an Offset Path Action that allows closed paths (shapes) to be enlarged (spread) or reduced (choked) by value. There are three further tools for editing line art, including the Vector Pathfinder Tool allows for manual line art editing for tasks such as working with dielines or cutter guides, useful for large format, label and packaging users.
This Hard Crop can be added through a standard Action List called ‘Clean up content’. PitStop also gains a new tool for cropping line art, removing unnecessary clipped content within the PDF file to reduce the complexity of files whilst still preserving its visual appearance. It should take a lot of the complexity out of using the Action Lists, which can be quite a powerful feature. There’s a new Visualizer mode that shows users what the Action List is doing so they can identify problems and edit that list on the go, saving a great deal of time. There’s a neat feature in the PitStop preflight report that emulates a DFE and tells a user if pages are empty, black and white or CMYK, which is handy for monitoring click charges on digital presses.Įnfocus has also simplified the process of creating and editing Action Lists. Other functions include remapping Pantone colours between Pantone libraries and remapping colours based on a name match. This is hardly a surprising development, given that Esko owns both Pantone and Enfocus. This should give consistent Pantones regardless of the colour space used.
PitStop has gained Pantone colour library Actions so that spot colors can now be checked and corrected against the correct Pantone colours and colour breakdowns in PitStop. This should help users see how many pages are processed each day and identify the type and quantity of errors in each job. Enfocus can also use the online access to offer customer support. There’s a new online dashboard feature that shows users which PitStop tools are being used and gives information on the incoming PDF files. PitStop 2018 gains a number of new features including Pantone colour libraries and the option to remap between libraries.
Enfocus has released the latest version of its PitStop Pro Acrobat plug-in, which is widely used to preflight and correct files for printing.
