Job Definition Format
Last updated 10/11/2011
View JDF job definitions
A JDF job definition in Acrobat contains references to the files to be printed as well as instructions and information
for print service providers at the production site.
Open the JDF Job Definitions dialog box
❖ Use either of the following methods:
• Choose Tools > Print Production > JDF Job Definitions.
• Double-click a JDF file on your computer to start Acrobat and list the JDF file in the dialog box.
View specifications of the print job
The components of a print job, their individual specifications, and the order in which they will be printed are listed in
a document hierarchy, which appears on the left side of the Edit JDF Job Definition dialog box.
1 In the JDF Job Definitions dialog box, select an item in the list, and click Edit.
2 In the document hierarchy on the left of the Edit JDF Job Definition dialog box, expand areas to list the components
of a section, and then do any of the following:
• Select the job definition name—the first item in the hierarchy—to view basic print job specifications and customer
information. The JDF definition may be labeled “Product.”
• Select a section—the second level in the hierarchy—to view page layout, media, and ink specifications.
• Select a file to see information specific to that file.
3 Click tabs to view different specifications.
Create JDF job definitions
You can create new JDF job definitions in a variety of ways using the JDF Job Definitions dialog box. Each resulting
JDF file can be edited and used in a production environment. Commercial printers who routinely print certain types
of jobs may find it useful to create several JDF files that match these job types, and use them as templates. Using a
template saves time and avoids costly mistakes, but may not be appropriate for every job. Before you construct a new
job definition from scratch, review existing job definitions for ones that achieve results similar to what you want.
1 In the JDF Job Definitions dialog box, click New.
2 Select a method of creating a new job definition:
New Creates a blank job definition.
Based On The Document Uses the properties of a currently open PDF, such as size and number of pages. Select a
document from the list on the right, which displays the names of files currently open in Acrobat.
Based On The Job Definition Creates a copy of an existing job definition with all its properties, including the list of
referenced files. Be sure that the page content is changed before you proceed with the rest of your workflow. If you
select this option, a list of available job definitions for your selection appears to the right, which shows a list of JDF files
present in the JDF Job Definitions dialog box.
3 Specify which version of the JDF specification your job definition will be compatible with.
