Using the TIFF/IT to PostScript filter
TIFF/IT (Tagged Image File Format/Image Technology) is a common TIFF standard. The
TIFF/IT-p1 file format usually consists of three files. All TIFF/IT-p1 files contain an FP (Final
Page) file. The FP file includes page dimension and position required subfiles, such as CT
(Contone) and LW (Line Work) files. CT files contain all photographic imagery. LW files
contain high resolution data, such as line art images, text, or lines from drawings.
TIFF/IT-p1 files may also include MP (Monochrome Picture), HC (High resolution
Contone), BL (Binary Line), or BP (Binary Picture) files.
When you drag and drop your TIFF/IT-p1 files, your output is a pre-separated PostScript
with one separation per page.
Follow these guidelines to convert your TIFF/IT-p1 job:
Enable the Combine Separations print option. For more information about setting print
options, see Print Options.
• Make sure that you have all the necessary files for the TIFF/IT-p1 job. You must place all
of the files in the Hot Folder at the same time. If there is a file missing, the job will not
process and you will receive an error.
• If the multiple files for the TIFF/IT-p1 job are stored in a folder, you may place the entire
folder in the Hot Folder.
• If you download the TIFF/IT-p1 job using the Download command, all files may be inside
a folder and the entire folder may be downloaded.
N : The imposition feature is not available if you configure the TIFF/IT to PostScript filter.
