In the Imaging tab in the Print Setup dialog box, deselect the Include Invisible
Layers option. In the Layers panel, hide layers to make them invisible and prevent
them from printing. For more information, see "Setting imaging and output
options" on page 400 and "Viewing layers and layered artwork" on page 243.
•
Move layers you do not want to print below the separator line on the Layers
panel (see "Using layers" on page 237).
To ensure that the text on your pages displays and prints correctly, it's important
to choose the correct type of font, PostScript or TrueType, for your output and to
use that type of font exclusively for production work.
Generally, use PostScript fonts for output to PostScript printers or for exporting a
document as an EPS file, and use TrueType fonts for output to desktop or non-
PostScript printers. If you are working with a prepress service provider or service
bureau, ask for a recommendation on font formats before beginning your
FreeHand artwork.
Use a type manager to improve onscreen text display and font management.
Adobe Type Manager (ATM) is the only type-management utility that supports all
of the text effects available in FreeHand. ATM requires PostScript (Type 1) fonts,
but does not require output to a PostScript printer.
If you open or import a document that contains fonts not installed on your
system, you will be prompted to replace missing fonts. For more information on
replacing missing fonts, see "Replacing missing fonts" on page 133.
PostScript fonts are the best choice if your final output device is a PostScript
printer or imagesetter, or if you want to export your document as an EPS file. All
text effects and transformations are available for PostScript fonts.
PostScript fonts have three components:
•
The screen or bitmap font for a specific point size (Macintosh)
•
The printer or outline font
•
Font metrics—the information used to compose the font—including kerning
and spacing data
In Windows, a PostScript font is available for output if the font is listed in the
printer driver for the selected target printer; if the font metrics file name appears
in the target printer's section in the Win.ini file; or if the font was installed using a
font management utility such as ATM (Windows 98, or NT4) or using Start >
Settings > Control Panel > Fonts (Windows NT4).
