Automate can command the application of actions, which control sequences of processes within PitStop. This means that PDF files can be pre-flight checked, sorted and, if required, re-outputted with Enfocus’ embedded certified PDF information. These islands would otherwise run independently, so users would have to move files around manually, or more likely set up chains of hot folders where the output folder for one island becomes the input folder for another.Ī copy of Enfocus PitStop Server is built-in and included in the overall price of Automate (around £3,400). The main function of Automate is to sort job files and route them to the independent ‘islands of automation’. However, it can expand compressed files, split multipage PDFs, output to printers or FTP, send emails and create archives.


Automate only has limited built-in processing abilities, as the idea is that it passes files to other programmes for most functions.
