Adobe PDF Print Engine Features
Adobe’s Native Raster Image Processing
Adobe PDF Print Engine is a rendering engine technology packed as an SDK. Adobe PDF Print Engine uses a native PDF imaging model, which eliminates the need to convert PDF to PostScript. Process jobs using the Job Definition Format (JDF), which acts as the controller for Adobe PDF Print Engine.
Avoid PostScript Rendering Quirks
Utilizing PDF Print Engine circumvents PostScript problems by supporting more advanced design features. Use Live Transparency to avoid flattening at the early stages of the workflow. Generate accurate job previews by using the Adobe Common Renderer for both previews and final output rasterization.
