Hierarchy
Properties
| Property | Type | Access | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| clipComplexRegions | bool | r/w | If true, ensures that the boundaries between vector and rasterized artwork fall along object paths. |
| convertAllStrokesToOutlines | bool | r/w | If true, converts all strokes to outlines and ensures that stroke widths remain constant during flattening. Note: Can cause thin strokes to appear slightly thicker than their original width. Affects all strokes, not only strokes involved in the transparency. |
| convertAllTextToOutlines | bool | r/w | If true, converts all text to outlines and discards all type glyph information on spreads with transparency; ensures that the width of text strokes remains constant during flattening. Note: Can cause small fonts to appear slightly thicker when viewed in Acrobat or printed on low-quality desktop printers, but does not affect type quality when printed on high-resolution printers or imagesetters. |
| eventListeners | EventListeners | readonly | A collection of event listeners. |
| events | Events | readonly | A collection of events. |
| gradientAndMeshResolution | number | r/w | The resolution for gradients rasterized as a result of flattening and for drop shadow and feathers when printed or exported. (Range: 0 to 1200) Note: Resolutions higher than 300 ppi increase file size and printing time but generally do not improve the image quality. |
| isValid | bool | readonly | Returns true if the object specifier resolves to valid objects. |
| lineArtAndTextResolution | number | r/w | The resolution for vector objects rasterized as a result of flattening. (Range: 1 to 9600) For information, see raster vector balance. |
| parent | Spread | readonly | The parent of the FlattenerPreference (a Spread). |
| properties | Object | r/w | A property that allows setting of several properties at the same time. |
| rasterVectorBalance | FlattenerLevelReal (0 - 100) | r/w | The amount of vector artwork to rasterize during flattening, specified as an enumerator or as a percentage in the range 0 to 100. Can return: FlattenerLevel enumerator or Real (0 - 100). |
Methods
Instances
EventListener addEventListener (eventType:
string, handler:
varies[, captures:
bool=false])
Adds an event listener.
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| eventType | string | The event type. |
| handler | File JavaScript Function | The event handler. Can accept: File or JavaScript Function. |
| captures | bool | This parameter is obsolete. (Optional) (default: false) |
Array of FlattenerPreference getElements ()
Resolves the object specifier, creating an array of object references.
bool removeEventListener (eventType:
string, handler:
varies[, captures:
bool=false])
Removes the event listener.
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| eventType | string | The registered event type. |
| handler | File JavaScript Function | The registered event handler. Can accept: File or JavaScript Function. |
| captures | bool | This parameter is obsolete. (Optional) (default: false) |
string toSource ()
Generates a string which, if executed, will return the FlattenerPreference.
string toSpecifier ()
Retrieves the object specifier.
