What confuses matters is that Acrobat is considered part of Adobe’s Document Cloud more than it is in Adobe’s Creative Cloud – something that can be demonstrated by going into the Creative Cloud application looking at the items installed… or could simply be an unreported bug. I did this by going to Acrobat’s preferences, navigating to updates, and unchecking the dialog box that says Automatically install updates. In my case, updating Acrobat is something I have to do manually, having learned the hard way what can happen when software – used in a production environment – is changed without warning and affects components of production. This integration allows the pre-flight and correction of PDF files to be carried out as an automated workflow milestone configured and applied directly within the Ricoh TotalFlow solution.Unfortunately for many Adobe Acrobat users, the software had already updated – usually without the operator’s knowledge – until the signs of problems presented themselves, and by then it was too late. Enfocus PitStop Server is a hot-folder driven server version for those customers processing large quantities of files and needing automated offline processing.Įnfocus PitStop is also available as a standard integrated module within Ricoh TotalFlow Production Manager, while for TotalFlow BatchBuilder the integrated module or PitStop Server is offered as an option.
