Hi Thomas,

Thank you for taking time to help me with this :-)

Setting the properties of the app.flattenerPresets.item(0) object does just that; you changes the properties of the "[Low Resolution]" flattener preset. What I need to know is: How do I instruct InDesign to use "x" flattener preset or flattener preferences when exporting a PDF?

In addition to this: When scanning through the InDesign object model viewer I can't help noticing the FlattenerPreference object. In my export script I set various properties of the ColorSetting object with(app.colorSettings){ - trying the same approach with(app.flattenerPreferences){ gives me the exception: "Object does not support the property or method FlattenerPreference" - so how do I set the properties of this object?

I hope that you understand my question(s) :-)

BTW I test the flattener preferences in effect upon export by using a filled frame with the Bevel and Emboss effect applied. The effect will get rasterized by the flattener when exporting a PDF version 1.3 from the document. Using Acrobat preflight on the resulting PDF I'm able to scan for image resolution and check whether or not the specific flattener property 'lineArtAndTextResolution = 300' was honoured. So far InDesign have been using 'lineArtAndTextResolution = 150' - this is a property of the Medium Resolution flattener preset. Sigh..
