The Tokenize PostScript Code and Compression options in the PostScript
Custom Properties dialog box reduce output file size and improve printing
speed on devices that support these options. If you have problems printing,
try clearing all the options. If you successfully print with no optimizations,
you can try turning the options on one at a time to determine the options
your printer supports.
Some desktop publishing applications only support Level 1 PostScript. If you
have problems using your EPS files, try a lower PostScript level and turn off
the optimizations just described.
Including a preview thumbnail in your EPS file makes the file substantially
larger but allows quick preview by many applications. The WMF preview is
for Windows; the EPSF preview is for Macintosh and other platforms.
Note Including both preview images can triple your file size.
