Testing Macintosh Communication - QMS 1800409-001A User Manual

Chapter 3
If you use Aldus FreeHand 3.x, install the version 3.0 PPD and
PDX files in the PPDs folder in the Aldus folder in the System
Folder.
If you use Aldus PrePrint, install the version 3.0 PPD and PDX
files in the PPDs folder in the Aldus folder in the System Folder.
If you use QuarkXPress, install the magicolor LX PDF in the
same folder as QuarkXPress. QuarkXPress 3.3 allows you to access
either a PDF or a PPD, but in order to have access to all of your
printer's features, we recommend that you use the PDF. To select
the PDF, go to Quark's Page Setup dialog box and hold down the
Shift key while clicking the Printer Type listbox. (The selections
that appear italicized are PPDs and the selections that appear
non-italicized are PDFs.) Also in the Page Setup dialog box, make
sure the EFIColor profile selection is "None."
Note that the Quark LPI setting you choose determines which
printer halftone settings are used. The table below shows which
printer halftone setting is used for each Quark LPI setting:
