D. CREATING PRINT FILES
PrimoDVD 2.0 will support two types of print files:
*.STD - SureThing CD Labeler
*.PRN - Print files created through the Publisher
Printer Driver
The dual drive Duplicator Pro will support only the *.PRN file
type for printing.
*.STD files
These are files created in SureThing CD Labeler, the disc labeling
software that shipped with your printer. More information on
SureThing is available in your printer’s user’s manual. This is
the recommended file type for printing as it offers the most
flexibility.
.PRN files
These are files created from virtually any Windows graphics
application. Instead of printing to a printer, you print to file. In
some programs, you can print directly from that software's Print
screen, through the correct printer driver software for the brand
and model of printer you've installed on your Publisher, to a
*.prn file. Adobe Illustrator and CorelDRAW! are examples of
such programs. Most of the popular, higher-end graphics
applications give you this option of printing directly to a file.
If your graphics software does not allow a direct print to a file,
you will need to go into your Windows Control Panel, Printers
where you will be able to select File from your list of available
printer ports. This will enable the driver to print to a PRN file
from any application.
Note: When creating print files make sure that the 32 Bit Spooler and Direct
to Port options under printer properties are not checked. You will
encounter problems if they are checked.
