![]() When you click on a font, it highlights it in pink in the preview. PitStop Pro 12 tells you which missing fonts it can supply, and which ones it can’t. (As in previous versions, if the fonts are already active on your computer, PitStop can embed them for you without requiring a purchase.) If you don’t like what you see, or one or more fonts aren’t available from Monotype, then you can cancel and go get the missing font from another source. Thankfully, PitStop shows you a preview of your PDF with the new fonts in use, so you can check for line endings and other possible text issues before continuing. If you’re lucky and all the missing fonts are available, one click will buy them and embed them into the PDF. While this is a great first step toward making all fonts available to PitStop and your PDFs, the reality is that many (most?) creative layouts use fonts that are not available from those collections. (Currently, 30,000+ fonts are available in Monotype’s “Baseline” system, a subset of the 150,000 fonts in Monotype’s collection that includes Linotype, ITC, Bitstream and Ascender fonts.) For just $1.49 per font, per document, PitStop can instantly supply and embed the missing font into the PDF. The biggest “wow” feature in PitStop 12 is that Enfocus has teamed with Monotype to automatically supply fonts that PitStop identifies as missing. Editing multiple similar objects at once.This review focuses on the new features in version 12, so for in-depth information on everything PitStop Pro can do, please see my previous review of PitStop Pro 11.Įnfocus, the developers of PitStop Pro, identified several areas that challenged users of previous versions and solved them, including: It operates as a plug-in to Adobe Acrobat Standard or Pro, version 8 and higher. PitStop Pro 12 is a significant upgrade to this all-purpose (and all-powerful!) tool for preflighting and editing PDF files. Pros: Offers users the ability to find, buy, and embed missing fonts much easier editing of page items
