Override rounding rules

What it does

Replaces the default rules used for comparing text size, line weight and/or coordinates to the ones set in this Action.

You have the choice to:

Leave text size, line weight and/or coordinates unchanged
Use the default rules, or
Use decimals.

Example

PitStop applies a number of rounding rules when comparing the actual values in a PDF to the ones set in a check (Profile check or "check" Action). For example, if you want to check if the text point size is equal to 10 points, PitStop will give a warning if there is a difference of 0.1 point.

If you don't want to log such small differences, use this Action to overrule the default behavior. Example of such an Action List:

Select all
Override rounding rules <!-- Select: Text size: decimals 0 -->
Check if text point size is equal to 10.0 pt <-- Check text point size  -->

Remark

We recommend using points as measurement unit because in the background, PitStop Pro converts all the different measurement units (p, in, cm, mm) into points and applies the rounding rules to this value (with its decimals).
