This feature is new and - may not be 100% complete, yet. Feedback is welcome. - </warning> - <p> - PDF/X is a standard which faciliates prepress digital data exchange using PDF. - Currently, only PDF/X-3:2003 is implemented out of the many different flavours of PDF/X - profiles. PDF/X-3:2003 is documented in - <a href="http://www.iso.org/iso/en/CatalogueDetailPage.CatalogueDetail?CSNUMBER=39940&ICS1=37&ICS2=100&ICS3=99">ISO 15930-6:2003(E)</a>. - More info on PDF/X can be found on the - <a href="http://www.pdfx.info/">PDF/X info site</a>. - </p> - </section> - <section id="status"> - <title>Implementation Status</title> - <p> - <strong>PDF/X-3:2003</strong> is implemented to the degree that FOP supports - the creation of the elements described in ISO 15930-6. - </p> - <p> - An important restriction of the current implementation is that all normal - RGB colors specified in XSL-FO and SVG are left unchanged in the sRGB color - space (XSL-FO and SVG both use sRGB as their default color space). - There's no conversion to a CMYK color space. Although sRGB is a - calibrated color space, its color space has a different size than a CMYK - color space which makes the conversion a lossy conversion and can lead to - unwanted results. Although the use of the calibrated sRGB has been promoted - for years, print shops usually prefer to convert an sRGB PDF to CMYK prior - to production. Until there's full CMYK support in FOP you will have to - work closely with your print service provider to make sure you get the - intended result. - </p> - <p> - Tests have been performed against Adobe Acrobat 7.0.7 (Preflight function). - Note that there are bugs in Adobe Acrobat which cause false alarms if both - PDF/A-1b and PDF/X-3:2003 are activated at the same time. - </p> - </section> - <section id="command-line"> - <title>Usage (command line)</title> - <p> - To activate PDF/X-3:2003 from the command-line, specify "-pdfprofile PDF/X-3:2003" - as a parameter. If there is a violation of one of the validation rules for - PDF/X, an error message is presented and the processing stops. - </p> - </section> - <section id="embedded"> - <title>Usage (embedded)</title> - <p> - When FOP is embedded in another Java application you can set a special option - on the renderer options in the user agent to activate the PDF/A-1b profile. - Here's an example: - </p> - <source><![CDATA[ -FOUserAgent userAgent = fopFactory.newFOUserAgent(); -userAgent.getRendererOptions().put("pdf-x-mode", "PDF/X-3:2003"); -Fop fop = fopFactory.newFop(MimeConstants.MIME_PDF, userAgent); -[..]]]></source> - <p> - If one of the validation rules of PDF/X is violated, an PDFConformanceException - (descendant of RuntimeException) is thrown. - </p> - </section> - <section id="rules"> - <title>PDF/X in Action</title> - <p> - There are a number of things that must be looked after if you activate a PDF/X - profile. If you receive a PDFConformanceException, have a look at the following - list (not necessarily comprehensive): - </p> - <ul> - <li> - Make sure all (!) fonts are embedded. If you use base 14 fonts (like Helvetica) - you need to obtain a license for them and embed them like any other font. - </li> - <li> - Don't use PDF encryption. PDF/X doesn't allow it. - </li> - <li> - Don't use CMYK images without an ICC color profile. PDF/X doesn't allow mixing - color spaces and FOP currently only properly supports the sRGB color space. However, - you will need to specify an - <a href="configuration.html#pdf-renderer">output device profile</a> - (usually a CMYK profile) in the configuration. sRGB won't work here since it's a - display device profile, not an output device profile. - </li> - <li> - Don't use non-RGB colors in SVG images. Same issue as with CMYK images. - </li> - <li> - Don't use EPS graphics with fo:external-graphic. Embedding EPS graphics in PDF - is deprecated since PDF 1.4 and prohibited by PDF/X-3:2003. - </li> - <li> - PDF is forced to version 1.4 if PDF/X-3:2003 is activated. - </li> - </ul> - </section> - <section id="profile-compatibility"> - <title>PDF profile compatibility</title> - <p> - The PDF profiles "PDF/X-3:2003" and "PDF/A-1b" are compatible and can both be - activated at the same time. - </p> - </section> - </body> -</document>
