Hello everyone I have read and reread carefully the July thread started by Chris Yocum's "rather naive/dumb question" (as he put it), but I still feel the need to start this with a dumber query. Kindly excuse me.
I am preparing a PDF to go to press. It has to be PDF/X-1a compliant. I found in the web a generous sample file by Eric Jeschke containing these lines: ------------------- \special{pdf:docinfo << /Title (My Book) % set your title here /Author (Som Wan) % set author name /Subject (What Ever) % set subject /Keywords (Blah, Blah) % set keywords /Trapped (False) /GTS_PDFXVersion (PDF/X-1a:2001) %/TrimBox [0.00000 9.00000 684.36000 585.00000] >> } \special{pdf:put @catalog << /OutputIntents [ << /Info (none) /Type /OutputIntent /S /GTS_PDFX /OutputConditionIdentifier (lightningsource.com) /RegistryName (https://www.lightningsource.com/)>> ] >>} ------------------- Then I also found a line in the thread: \special{pdf: put @pages /TrimBox[1 2 3 4]} But using all this stuff, trying some modifications, is not helping me go through the preflight check. The following issues are complained about: --Trimbox --Date --Document ID --Trapped key: this won't work, no matter what I input above --Compressed object streams: I only have two greyscale .pdf images in the book, inserted via \includegraphics --PDF version is newer than 1.3: I am aware that there was a change of version with this year's TeX Live binaries, but I wonder if there is a way to change this setting and use 1.3 or at least to trick Acrobat into thinking that the file comes from 1.3 Does anyone have a successful \special setup for this? After beautifully creating the document with XeLaTeX, will be really have to resort to Acrobat to make the PDF compliant with the standard?
