This document describes a method for storing data in a PDF file that correspond to the processing steps of printed products. This method has three parts: metadata identifying processing steps; limitations on the interaction between PDF graphics objects that are part of a processing step and other PDF graphics objects; limitations on PDF graphics objects in processing steps. This method is intended to be generic, i.e. not specific to packaging and labels. In addition, this document defines the following packaging- and label-specific groups of processing-steps data: data corresponding to finishing steps, such as cutting, folding or glueing; Braille; information panels; indications of physical dimensions; indications of intended positions of graphical elements; printed white, for example on transparent or metallic surfaces; printed varnish.
