FAQs

Frequently asked questions about the Shrink Marked Proofs:

Can I choose which marked PDFs need compression?

Yes. You choose the review board, proof file column, and maximum PDF size during setup. A marked PDF starts this run when it exceeds your limit.

What if the version or maker task is missing?

Your team adds the version and linked maker task to the review item. If either is missing, the Agent asks for that detail there before attaching anything.

What happens if the compressed PDF has a problem?

Your original PDF stays untouched. The Agent adds a blocker update to the review item if the output will not open, loses pages, or is no smaller.

What happens when the Agent is unsure?

It stops and asks you. The Agent does not guess when it reaches a decision you have not approved.

Can I review its work?

Yes. Every run creates a plain-language log that you can review and export. Logs are kept for twelve months.

What happens if I cancel?

The Agent stops at the end of the billing month and its tool connections are removed. Your run logs remain available for twelve months.
