Color management options: The color management options in Publish to PDF let users apply an ICC profile at the
time of export. Users can choose either a composite printer profile or a separations printer profil e, and have
the option of setting specific profiles.
Encapsulated PostScript® Export
The Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) dialog box has been enhanced to give users new EPS exporting opti ons
based on parallel PostScript printing features. New options include enhanced color management optio ns,
bitmap image compression, and choice of PostScript compatibility. Also, bounding box options have b een
enhanced to increase flexibility. For example, users may now choose to use the object or page bound ing box,
or add a bleed amount and include crop marks.
Printing Features
Miniature Preview dialog box: The Miniature Preview dialog box lets users immediately see the effects of any
setting changes. Also, users can verify positioning and page sizes. For a larger preview with tools to zoom, set
up imposition layouts, and move or resize the contents of individual pages, users can still use the Print
Preview dialog box.
Preflight warnings: Preflight warnings give users important feedback and warnings about their print jobs. Once
the Print engine has analyzed a document, a message is displayed on the preflight tab stating wheth er or not
there are any issues related to the printing job.
Enhanced Print To File options : Enhanced Print To File options in the Print dialog box eliminate the need to print
an entire document to a single file.
Enhanced Imposition Layout: The Imposition Layout tools combine the Signature Layout and N-up Format
capabilities from CorelDRAW 8 into a single, powerful feature. This has been done to increase impos ition
usability and flexibility, and to address specific shortcomings in the imposition features of Corel DRAW 8.
The Imposition Layout tools are capable of advanced signature layouts, including customized group s ets of
signatures, advanced binding options, page rotation, fold marks, and gutters.
Enhanced Print options: New options in the Print dialog box give users the ability to turn off any overprints
specified for objects in the document, and the option to output all bitmap images as RGB, CMYK, or
grayscale. Also, a new printing page in the Tools, Options dialog box gives users access to those o ptions
previously located in the Special Settings section in the Miscellaneous tab in the Print dialog box .
Print multiple documents: Users can print multiple documents in CorelDRAW 9. All selected documents will be
printed together as a single print job, and users can choose to combine documents on a single page using the
Imposition Layout tools.
PDF marks: This option adds annotations to PostScript output that are useful when using Adobe® Acrobat®
Distiller. Hyperlinks and bookmarks are maintained when the document is converted to a PostScript f ile and
PDF.
Downsample bitmap images: By downsampling bitmap images, users can improve print speed when proofing a
document, or when printing documents that have bitmap images containing too much information.
