The following code fragment should do it:
----
tell application "Acrobat 5.0" to activate
tell application "PreFab Player(tm)"
do menu menu item "Apago PDF/X-1 Checkup" of menu "Tools"
end tell
----
Prefab Player is an essential extension for scripting
Acrobat. Download a demo from www.prefab.com

Regards,
Bob
