• To print the multiple pages of the layout in thumbnail view (reduced size), check
Thumbnails.
• To flip the output vertically or horizontally, choose an option from the Page Flip
drop-down menu.
To print a large layout in sections (tiles), choose an option from the Page Tiling
drop-down menu. The application prints tickmarks and location information on each
tile to aid you in reassembling them.
• To control the way in which a page is tiled by positioning the ruler origin, choose
Manual.
• To have the application determine the number of tiles needed to print each document
page based on the layout size, the media size, whether or not Absolute Overlap is
checked, and the value in the Overlap field, choose Automatic. The value entered in
the Overlap field is the amount the application will use to extend the page as needed
to create the tile. When Absolute Overlap is checked, the application will use only
the value in the Overlap field when extending the page to create the tile. If Absolute
Overlap is unchecked, the application will use at least the amount in the Overlap
field when creating the tile, but may use a larger amount if necessary. Do not check
Absolute Overlap if you want your layout centered on the final assembled tiles.
Pictures pane
Use the Pictures pane to control the way pictures are printed:
• To specify how pictures are printed, choose an option from the Output drop-down
menu. Normal provides high-resolution output of pictures using the data from the
pictures' source files. Low Resolution prints pictures at screen preview resolution.
Rough suppresses printout of pictures and blends and prints a box with the frame and
an "x" in it, much like an empty picture box on screen.
• To select a format for print data, choose an option from the Data drop-down menu.
Although documents print more quickly in Binary format, the ASCII option is more
portable because it is a standard format readable by a wider range of printers and print
spoolers. The Clean 8-bit option combines ASCII and binary in a versatile and portable
file format.
• Check Overprint EPS Black to force all black elements in imported EPS pictures to
overprint (regardless of their overprint settings in the EPS file).
• To print 1-bit TIFFs at full resolution (not to exceed the resolution specified in the
Device list item), check Full Resolution TIFF Output. If Full Resolution TIFF Output
is unchecked, images greater than 1-bit will be subsampled to twice the lines per inch
(lpi) setting.
Fonts pane
Use the Fonts pane to specify which fonts are included in output. Note that many of
the options in this pane are available only when printing to a PostScript output device.
• To read the list of downloaded fonts from the printer's PPD file, check Use PPD Font
Settings. Fonts listed in the PPD file are not downloaded. Checking this box disables
many of the other controls in this tab.
