Filecheck prefers remediation over rejection. When a file has a fixable problem, the Workflow corrects it instead of turning the customer away. The fixed output is available as outputRef on each file in the status payload.

​
Commonly auto-fixed issues

Color

Convert RGB to CMYK with standard targets (FOGRA39 / GRACoL); convert spot colors to process.

Bleed & geometry

Add missing bleed, align page boxes (Media/Trim/Bleed), normalize document geometry.

Fonts

Embed and subset fonts; outline text where required.

Images

Standardize backgrounds to white, strip EXIF, flatten transparency, upscale low-DPI rasters.
The exact remediation that runs is controlled by the Workflow. This page lists what is possible, not what runs on every job.
