ASCII format: Select to create the PDF file using ASCII characters (instead of the usual 8-
bit binary format). This option produces a file suitable for transmission over a 7-bit ASCII
link. This option is useful if the PDFs need to be opened in a text editor, sent across net-
works, or sent via email using a program that does not support binary files. This option also
generates smaller files.
l
Compress text and line art: Select to compress the text and line work in the file using the
Flate compression filter. Flate is a compression method that works well on elements with
large areas of single colors or repeating patterns, as well as on black-and-white elements
that contain repeating patterns.

text or DSC comments.
