Setup: Choose media size (including custom sizes), orientation, scale, and page position, as well
as thumbnail and tiling options.
Marks and Bleed: Choose options for crop, bleed, and registration marks. Caution: Choosing the
option to Use Document Bleed Settings won't include bleed if the Document Bleed Setting is set
to zero, so check the value in the Bleed fields to confirm that they contain the appropriate value.
Output: The availability of color options such as Composite CMYK, Composite Gray,
Separations, In-RIP Separations, and so on, will depend on the printer chosen. While you can
specify angle and frequency for each ink, your output device will probably ignore these choices.
Setup Options
Select from media sizes available for
the device (based on the PPD) and set
orientation . Offset and Gap are available
only for cut-sheet devices (such as roll-
fed printers or imagesetters) . Choose the
appropriate scaling factor and page position
on the media . Thumbnails are small versions
of the pages, printed with up to 7 x 7 (for a
total of 49) per sheet . Tile options allow you
to print a large document, such as a poster,
on smaller media and then tape the tiles
together manually .
Marks and Bleed Options
Choose the marks to be imaged on output,
the weight for crop and bleed marks
( . 1 25 pt, .25 pt, or .5 pt), and the marks
offset (between 0 and 1 inch) to avoid
impinging on artwork . Check the option to
Use Document Bleed Settings only if the
document has been set up with a defined
bleed area (File > Document Setup) . Include
Slug Area allows a designated Slug area to
print on output .
Output Options
The Color options available will depend on
the PPD for the target device . For example,
a desktop inkjet printer will allow only RGB
and Composite Gray, while a four-color laser
printer will often allow Composite CMYK,
Composite Gray, and separations . The Flip
option allows mirrored printing (horizontal,
vertical, or both) . Trapping and screening are
available only if separated output is chosen
(or in-RIP separations) . Choose Simulate
Overprint to simulate the appearance of
overprinted objects . The Ink Manager button
launches the Ink Manager for remapping
spot colors as necessary .
