Ghent PDF Output Suite 5 compliancy and instructions

This allows vendors to ensure their solutions are compliant with the Ghent PDF Output Suite 5 and communicate that to their customers. It allows customers to ensure a wide range of advanced PDF features can successfully be handled by those solutions.

1. Have submitted proof of successful output, display or processing of the Ghent Output Suite 5 to the Ghent Workgroup.
2. Have provided instructions for end-users on how to successfully handle such files to the Ghent Workgroup.

These settings should also be used to process other PDF/X-4 files.

These instructions were created by the vendors of these systems. The Ghent Workgroup could not test these instructions. In case of problems please contact your vendor.
