Printing documents
In Canvas, you can print to any printer set up on your computer or network, including PostScript and
non-PostScript printers.
For information on installing, setting up, and selecting a printer to use, refer to your
operating system documentation.
Printing a document
If your document uses a standard paper size and you want to print all the visible objects on the page,
you can simply select a printer and print the document. However, Canvas also offers the flexibility to
print multiple pages on a page, scale the page to fit the paper, print color separations, print
registration marks, and much more.
To print a document:
1. Choose File | Print.
2. In the Print dialog box, select a printer from the Name drop-down list in the Printer section.
3. On the General tab, select the print range and copy settings.
4. Select any other options you want to use from the Advanced, Separations, and Page setup
tabs.
5. Click the Print button.
Print options
The Print dialog box contains four tabs: General, Advanced, Separations, and Page Setup.
General options
Printer Name: Select a printer from the drop-down list.
Properties: Click this button to modify the properties in the printer
driver.
Print to file: Select this check box if you want to generate a postscript
file rather than a printed document.
