A lot of talk has been circulating lately about security issues in Android.

Automating Preflight with PDF Analyzer

From Check List to PDF Options More than a decade ago Chuck Weger coined the term “preflight” to define the verification process of digital files prior to printing. Since then, this process or “check list” has materialized into integrated PDF options, plug-ins, and standalone products.
