There are well over 120 standard Fixups to choose from in the Workflow. You can quickly find out whether a suitable Fixup is already available for the problem you are looking for by searching for keywords.

Deflate, which was implemented with PDF 1.2, is a compression method that mainly combines two algorithms. On the one hand, a dictionary-based algorithm equivalent to LZ77 (LZW) is used to effectively encode repetitive sequences, and on the other hand, a Huffman code is used as an entropy encoder. While LZW is based on a patent from Unisys, Flate works with the public domain zlib/deflate-compression method, thus offering a solution free of charge.

Difference to LZW : A significant difference between LZW and Flate is immediately apparent to the user when compressing non-repeating patterns. While LZW increases the file size in this case to at least 1.125 times, or even up to 1.5 times, an enlargement by Flate is only possible up to 1.003 times, but a maximum of 11 bytes larger than the original.

Summary: Everything that has been said about LZW can be applied to Flate. However, if you have the choice between the two algorithms, always opt for the Flate algorithm. More effective compression should be reason enough to use it.

Technically speaking, Flate is one of the lossless, asymmetric compression methods, whereby compression is performed logically. In PDF, Flate compression is addressed via the FlateDecoce Filter. As with LZW, it is generally possible to parameterize the filter, but this is not provided for in the user interface of graphic, layout and PDF editors.

Flipping Horizontally, Flipping Vertically and Rotating are technical terms for the turning/rotating possibilities of a printed sheet, regardless of whether the process is carried out with one or two Print Items.

When the sheet is flipped horizontally, the sheet moves in the direction(s) described below in the diagram..

Figure: A visual representation of the horizontal flipping process.

FOGRA is a German-based Research Institute for the graphic arts. They are very actively involved in maintaining several ISO standards (ISO TC 130) concerning color management and printing. Based on ISO standards, they developed a system of certifications for print providers. proofing systems and proof providers known as FOGRAcert. www.fogra.org

Typical examples of Fonts are e.g: Helvetica, Rotis etc. A complete Font can consist of several Fonts weights - Regular, Italic, Bold or Bold Italic - or a font can be part of a Font family - Rotis Semi Sans, Rotis Serif and so forth.

The term Font embedding refers to the process of embedding the graphic description of the characters in the print file so that they are available for display on the monitor or for output to the printer (during rendering). Font embedding can be done in two ways.
