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.
• If you are printing to a PostScript level 3 or later output device, or to a device that uses
PostScript 2 version 2015 or later, check Optimize Font Formats.
• To download all fonts used in the layout and all system fonts, check Download Layout
Fonts. To control which fonts are downloaded, uncheck Download Layout Fonts and
then check Download for each font you want to download. You can control which fonts
are listed by choosing an option from the Show drop-down menu.
• To download all fonts that are required by imported PDF and EPS files, check Download
Imported PDF/EPS Fonts.
• To retrieve a list of the fonts included on the active printer, click Scan Printer. Note that
this process can take a long time; you may want to check Use PPD Font Settings, and use
your printer manufacturer's PPD file.
Color pane
Use the Color pane to control color output.
• To print all colors on one page, choose Composite from the Mode drop-down menu. To
print a separate plate for each color (for use on a multicolor press), choose Separations
from the Mode drop-down menu. For more information about composite output, see
"Printing color composites." For more information about separations, see "Printing color
separations."
• To specify an output setup for the output device, choose an option from the Setup
drop-down menu. For more information about color management, see "Source setups and
output setups."
• To specify default halftone shape and frequency, use the Halftones and Frequency
drop-down menus. The Printer option on the Halftones drop-down menu lets the output
device determine all halftone settings.
• To print only specific plates, and to control halftone options for individual plates, use the
controls in the list of plates.
Marks pane
Use the Marks pane to include crop marks, registration marks, and bleed marks in the
output. Crop marks are short vertical and horizontal lines printed outside the page's final
trim size, indicating where to cut the page. Registration marks are symbols that are used to
align overlaying plates. Bleed marks indicate where page bleeds end.
