Warnings Tab
The Online Editor has its own preflight engine to validate documents before they are saved by you or the shopper.
Figure 10.103: On a storefront, potential warnings and errors are displayed when a shopper saves a document.
The behavior is controlled in the Warnings tab which consists of the following panels:
Preflight Settings
In this panel you can set the parameters for validating the document while you are editing and when it’s saved in the Online Editor by yourself or the shopper. You can set the severity (Ignore, Warning, Error) or values to be checked. The actual results of the preflighting are shown in the Preflight Results panel. You can also prevent saving and PDF creation if your document has errors, and also show warnings before saving.
Frame outside page
Frames positioned outside the page will not appear on the printed document.
Text overflow
When text is too long to fit in its frame, part of the text will not be printed.
Missing characters
The user can use accents or non-Latin characters in a frame, then alter the typeface and accidentally select a font in which some of those characters are not supported. The missing characters might appear as spaces or small rectangles.
Img output resolution
The resolution of images must be high enough to avoid pixilation.
Img resize
Some companies do not want their logo to appear too small on documents.
Empty variable
In a document using the Forms or Expert workspace you may want to ensure that the user fills in all the fields. Only applies for “required” variables, so make sure the “Required check box is selected if you want this option to take effect.
Min. Output Res

Check resolution on
Defines if the resolution is checked on bitmap or vector images or both
Min. Resize %
The lower threshold value for ‘Img resize’
Max. Resize %
The upper threshold value for ‘Img resize’
Check resize on

Preflight Results
This panel provides a list of errors and warnings generated according to the Preflight Settings. Errors are indicated with a red error icon and warnings have a yellow icon.
Prevent save on errors

Prevent PDF generation on errors
It is recommended to clear this check box. Only applies for generating PDFs in the StoreCenter Online Editor, not on the storefront.
Show warnings on save
Informs the user explicitly about potential issues. Shoppers can however ignore warnings, close the window and order the product.
Import Warnings
