About PPD files

A PostScript Printer Description (PPD) file customizes the behavior of the printer driver

for your specific printer. A PPD file contains information about the output device,

including printer-resident fonts, available media sizes and orientation, optimized screen

frequencies, resolution, and color output capabilities. Selecting the PPD file that

corresponds to your PostScript printer or imagesetter provides the Advanced Print Setup

dialog box with the available settings for the output device, and determines which

PostScript information to send to the printer when printing a document. For example,

fonts listed in your PPD file reside in the printer, so they are not downloaded when you

print, unless you explicitly include them.
