1. Set default PDF export preset

   When saving as PDF the preset is always set to Illustrator standard and you have to manually use the drop down menu to choose the standard you need.

   Most designers use always the same standard. I work for example in preprint and have to select X1a. It sucks to have to select this for every dingle file dozens of times a day.

   Other designers struggle there as well and send us constantly PDFs that are not X1a because of this. They forget about the selection.

   To ease up regular work flows it would be very handy to save this setting as a default.

   Illustrator now allows to set a default PDF export preset in the Beta version 27.6 — please verify if this fits your expectations and works correctly.
