Quickstart: Create a PDF/X-compliant file

You can validate PDF content using PDF/X criteria, and then save the PDF as a PDF/X-compliant file.

  1. Choose Advanced > Preflight.
  2. Choose Options > Convert Current PDF To PDF/X.
  3. Select PDF/X-1a, PDF/X-3, or PDF/X-4, and specify other conversion options.
  4. If the conversion succeeds, save the PDF. If it fails, view the results.

Preflight cannot modify conditions that make the conversion invalid. It provides only a list of those conditions.
