This post on choosing a PDF export preset was originally published September 15, 2006. We are refreshing our oldest and most popular posts with updated information and screenshots. Acrobat 6 compatibility is the default, which allows for transparency and the use of Acrobat layers). Color images are downsampled to 100 ppi, grayscale images to 150 ppi. Smallest File Size: Use this preset for onscreen display, email, or the web. For reasons unexplained, the naming convention didn’t keep up.) (Notice that the actual PDF Standard is PDF/X-4:2010. The main advantage to the PDF/x-4 preset is that-in an Adobe PDF Print Engine workflow-it can harness the ability to manage color and transparency at the latest stages in the RIP stream. It sets the compatibility to Acrobat 7 (PDF 1.6), employs high image resolutions, can handle non-CMYK color-managed workflows, and allows color data to be grayscale, RGB, CMYK, Lab, spot, and ICC-profile based. PDF/X-4:2008: Use this PDF/X preset when you want to maintain transparency. Choose this option for color-managed environments where you expect the printer to optimize color reproduction for the specific printing environment. This standard is more widely used in Europe than in North America. PDF/X-3:2002: This PDF/X preset is similar to PDF/X-1a except that it also supports embedded RGB profiles and color management.

Image resolution settings are the same as the Press Quality preset. RGB images are converted to CMYK CMYK values are preserved. (Therefore, if you choose either of these choices, be sure to visit the Advanced panel and select the High Resolution Transparency Flattener Preset to retain the quality of your type and vectors.) PDF/X-1a supports CMYK and spot colors but doesn’t allow color management. PDF/X-1a:2001: Both PDF/X-1a:2001 and PDF/X-3:2002 presets set Acrobat 4 compatibility which flattens a file’s transparency. They’re also a good choice if you’re not sure what your printer wants. Many printers encourage their customers to use PDF/X.

The next three presets follow PDF/X standards: To reduce printing errors and enable the successful exchange of files, Adobe worked with other vendors and professional users to develop the PDF/X standards-a family of ISO standards which are a subset of PDF designed for print workflows. Acrobat can handle live transparency and produce high-quality separations. This would be a good choice if your printer is sending this to an imagesetter or platesetter out of Acrobat Professional. RGB images are converted to CMYK CMYK values are unchanged. Color and grayscale images are downsampled to 300 ppi (considered an industry standard for commercial printing). Acrobat 5 compatibility is selected, and transparency isn’t flattened. Press Quality: Use this PDF preset for high-quality commercial printing where the printer is comfortable receiving a PDF with live transparency. Transparency is retained (Acrobat 5 compatibility is the default). Colors are left unchanged (they aren’t converted to another color space). Color and grayscale images are downsampled to 300 ppi.

High Quality Print: Use this preset to create a PDF document for high-quality printing on desktop printers and proofers. More after the jump! Continue reading below↓įree and Premium members see fewer ads! Sign up and log-in today.
