Enfocus (Gent, Belgium) has released PitStop Pro and PitStop Server 2020, with a list of new features and improvements. The feature set offers new innovations, new automation possibilities, new Preflight checks and fixes, and specific new tools for working with vector graphics.

Among the highlights is a new, patent-pending technology that uses Computer Vision techniques, which enables PitStop Pro and Server to “see” the visual content of a PDF file. According to Enfocus, PitStop will be able to look for images, and graphical shapes such as logos to check if they are present or absent in a PDF file. The technology can also flag cropped or partial images that may occur in the file, and has options for size and rotation. This new technology has special value when files have particular legal or design restrictions such as a corporate identity or compliance rules.

Also new feature PitStop 2020 is the ability to trace raster elements to create a vector shape. Per the company, customers will find it valuable when creating varnishes, underprints or digital cutting paths. PitStop 2020 will be able to overlay and merge one PDF document onto another to making a single document, while using variables for placement, resizing and opacity options.
