Printing to a Virtual Printer
You can print to a virtual printer to create a Certified
PDF document. You can do this from any applica-
tion in Windows or in the Mac OS, just as you would
print to a regular printer. The difference is, how-
ever, that your file will go through a complete PDF
creation and quality assurance workflow, resulting
in a Certified PDF document.
You may want to use a different method, however,
in applications where you can use Instant PDF as a
plug-in: Adobe InDesign CS3, CS4 and CS5, Adobe
Illustrator CS3, CS4 and CS5, QuarkXPress 7 and 8,
and Adobe Acrobat 8 and 9.
To create a Certified PDF document by printing to a
virtual printer:
1 Open your original document in its native
application.
2 Choose File > Print.
3 Select a PDF Queue, presented as a virtual
printer, from your list of printers.
4 Check the print settings which are specific to
your native application, change them, if nec-
essary, and click Print.
