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 gradients 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.
If you are printing to a PostScript level 3 or later output device, or to a device
that uses PostScript level 2 version 2015 or later, check Optimize Font
Formats.
To download all fonts used in the layout , 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. (Windows only)
