JPEG Quality
Use the slider control to set the JPEG quality index when using JPEG compression for
bitmapped images. Values range from 0 to 100, with higher values specifying
increased quality and lower values specifying increased compression and the loss of
some image fidelity. The default JPEG quality is 85.
Rasterization Resolution (DPI)
For MAGIX Page & Layout Designer 2013 graphic objects that cannot be exported as
native vector PDF objects (things like soft shadows, feathered objects, bevels),
MAGIX Page & Layout Designer 2013 will automatically rasterize, that is convert to a
bitmap. This option allows you to choose the DPI (dots per inch) for the rasterization
resolution using the dropdown list, or click
USE CUSTOM DPI and enter a custom value
by checking the
USE CUSTOM DPI option and specifying an integer value between 20
and 600. The default preset value for rasterization is 150. The higher the resolution,
the larger the PDF file. It is not usually necessary, even for the highest quality printing
to use a value above 300dpi.
Options
INCLUDE HYPERLINKS: Select this option to preserve any objects containing hyperlinks
in the outgoing PDF file. By default, this option is selected for standard PDF
documents. This option is not selected and disabled for PDF/X documents, since
hyperlinks are not allowed.
CONVERT TEXT INTO SHAPES: This option can be selected to convert all text content
into vector shapes. This option can be specified to preserve the appearance of text
when equivalent fonts may not be available on the target system or when font
embedding is not permitted. Note that the text in the resulting PDF file is translated
into shapes and is no longer editable as text. By default this option is not selected.
USE UNICODE FOR TEXT ENCODING: This option can be used to select the method to be
used for encoding text in the resulting PDF document. By default, this option is not
selected and text is encoded using the ANSI encoding scheme. Selecting this option
specifies that text should be encoded using Unicode.
PRESERVE BITMAP TILING: This option determines the method that the export filter
uses to generate tiles in the PDF file. By default, the preserve bitmap tiling option is
selected and a series of individual bitmaps are used to fill the corresponding object.
This option should be unchecked when the resulting PDF files are to be used in Adobe
Illustrator 9 and 10 or in any other application that does not directly support bitmap
tiles as fills.
PRESERVE GROUPS: Use this option to maintain groups in the resulting PDF document.
Note that because the PDF format does not natively support groups, grouping is
emulated using clipping masks.
