l Color down sampling: Select the down sampling option. Down sampling reduces image size by
breaking images down into small areas in which multiple pixels are replaced by single pixels.
The Color resolution you enter in the following box is used to control the down sampling process.
Select None to prevent grayscale down sampling. Select Average to average pixel color in each
sample area and to replace the entire area with a pixel of the average color. Select Subsample to
use a pixel in the center of the sample area and replace the entire area with that pixel value. This
method is significantly faster, but results in images that are less smooth. Select Bicubic to use a
weighted average to determine pixel shades. This method is the slowest but most precise and
results in the smoothest tonal gradations.
l Color resolution: Select the resolution to use for color images. Note that this setting has an
impact on the color down-sampling process.

l Embed all: Select to embed the entire font of all fonts used in the variable content document
within the generated PDFs. Using this option may result in large PDFs, especially if many fonts
are used. Note that those fonts installed by default with the Adobe Acrobat and Adobe Reader
are never embedded. If a font is not embedded in your PDF, opening it on another computer or
printing it may cause it to be substituted by another default font.
l Subset: Select to embed only a subset of the Type 1 and TrueType fonts used in the document.
A font subset is in fact composed of only those characters that are actually used in the document.
This option can only be used if the Embed all fonts option is selected. Note that if more than 35%
of the characters included in a font are used in the document, the entire font is embedded. This
option often produces smaller PDF files and ensures proper PDF display.
l Initial view group
l Zoom factor: Select the magnification at which you want Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Reader (or
other PDF viewer) to open the generated PDF. Choose the Fit in window option to display the
entire page using the available screen space, or choose a percentage of the actual document
