pdfToolbox Profile version overview
Each pdfToolbox Profile contains a version number that indicates which pdfToolbox Desktop version it was created with.
To find it, open the exported .kfpx file in a text editor and check the XML header, for example:
<pdfpreflight version="22.0">
Click to copy
The pdfpreflight value maps to a specific pdfToolbox Desktop version (e.g. 22.0 = pdfToolbox Desktop 16).
