Enfocus PitStop Server — Automated PDF Preflight & Correction

The same preflight power as PitStop Pro, but fully automated. Inspect, correct and report on thousands of PDFs server-side — without manual intervention.

PitStop Server brings PitStop Pro's proven preflight and correction technology to your production server. Through hot folders, PDFs are automatically inspected, corrected and reported on — reliably and repeatably.

On this page you'll learn what PitStop Server automates, how to drive it through the CLI and Smart Preflight, and which license best fits your print shop.

Enfocus PitStop Server — Automated PDF Preflight & Correction

Preflight at production scale

All of PitStop Pro's correction power, applied automatically to every PDF entering your production.

Fully automated preflight & correction

Run your existing PitStop Preflight Profiles and Action Lists server-side. Inspect, correct and report on thousands of PDFs with no one needing to step in.

Hot folders & auto-pickup

Pick up files automatically via FTP, email and monitored folders. Sort, rename, route and archive them fully automatically.

Certified PDF & reporting

Validate with Certified PDF and generate XML, JSON or annotated PDF reports — the same reports as in PitStop Pro.

CLI & Smart Preflight

Drive PitStop Server from your MIS or front-end through the command-line interface. With Smart Preflight you use values from XML/JDF job tickets and databases directly in your profiles.
