PostScript Options

The following are the settings for PostScript Options:

PostScript Output Options offers the following settings:

Optimize for Speed. This is the default setting.

Optimize for Portability. Use this setting to create a file that conforms to the Adobe
Document Structuring Conventions (ADSC). Each page of the document will be a self-
contained object. This is useful, for instance, if you want to create a PostScript file and print it
on a different product.

Encapsulated PostScript (EPS). Use this setting to include the file as an image in another
document that is to be printed from a different program.

Archive Format. Use this setting to create a PostScript file that you can use later.

TrueType Font Download Option offers the following settings:

Automatic (default )

Outline

Bitmap

Native TrueType

The PostScript Language Level specifies which PostScript language level to use, from 1 to the
highest level that your product supports. Some products support multiple levels. It is usually best
to select the highest level that is available, because a higher language-level provides more
features. In some instances, however, you would still use level 1. For example, if you are printing
a file to disk and that file will be printed by someone who has a level-1 printer, you would need to
select level 1. The PostScript Language Level spin box offers settings 1 through 3.

Send PostScript Error Handler specifies whether a PostScript error handler message is sent. If
you want the product to print an error page when an error occurs in the print job, click Yes.

Mirrored Output specifies mirrored print output. Click Yes to print a mirror image of your
document by reversing the horizontal coordinates.
