San Mateo, CA – July 5, 2005 – The latest, feature-rich version of the world’s most popular PDF editing, preflight and certification software for graphic arts applications, Enfocus PitStop Professional, is now available via download or CD. New PitStop Professional 6.5 supports Acrobat 7 and allows checking and fixing of PDF 1.6-specific features during preflight; and also runs on the latest Windows and Macintosh operating systems, including new Macintosh OS X Tiger. Enfocus also re-institutes one of its most heralded features, text editing of PDF files using embedded fonts .
