I had to send book files to Cuba today, didn't have direct contact with the printer and so had to guess on the PDF export settings. I said to myself, what the hell, that PDF/X-4:2008 looks pretty good, I vaguely recall something good about it being said on the InDesign list... so I just selected that one, turning the color marks on for the cover and off for the internal pages.
If this turns out not to be right for them, they'll presumably tell me what they do need and I'll redo it like that, but in any event I'm interested in which circumstances are known to be inappropriate for this latest PDF/X standard. I would suppose that some installations can't handle files created to it and that's why the earlier ones are still supported, but I'm really just guessing on the whole thing.
Thanks,
Roy
