View MIP-protected PDFs in Acrobat 2020 and Reader 2020

Preflight enhancements and PDF/UA validation in Preflight

Preflight libraries: Preflight profiles, fixes, and checks are now organized into libraries.

Preflight variables: Variables let you dynamically customize profiles, checks, and fixes as you apply them. Variables can be used when editing profiles, checks, or fixes when the orange triangle is displayed. Variables also let you filter for existing objects.

Preflight supports the new Ghent Workgroup PDF specification 2015: The new GWG specifications are based on PDF/X-4 and support native transparency and media-neutral RGB workflows.
