Saving and Exporting Files 441
You cannot export the following effects to PDF format:
• Custom and PostScript fills and strokes, arrowheads, and textured fills.
• Alpha channel transparency.
• EPS images. If an EPS image has a TIFF preview, FreeHand exports the
preview instead of the EPS file.
• Text effects.
• Overprinting. Overprinting applied to objects is turned off when
exporting to PDF.
In addition, the maximum page size maximum for a PDF document is 3240 x
3240 pixels (about 45 x 45 inches). A larger page will be clipped to fit the
maximum PDF page size.
To export a PDF file:
1 In the Export Document dialog box, choose PDF for format, and click Setup
(Windows) or Options (Macintosh) to display the PDF Export dialog box.
2 In the PDF Export dialog box, select All to export all pages, or select From and
enter a page range.
