With this option checked, the pages must be printed in the order in which Acrobat emits them. • Download Asian Fonts downloads Asian fonts to a PostScript printer. Select this option if you want to print a PDF document with Asian fonts but do not have the fonts installed on the printer and do not have the fonts embedded in the document. (Embedded fonts are downloaded whether or not this option is selected.) You can use this option with a PostScript Level 2 or higher printer, or a Level 1 printer that supports Type 0 font extensions. • Save Printer Memory downloads all the fonts for a given page to the printer before the page is printed. When unchecked, print jobs may be smaller but require more printer memory. Note: Some fonts cannot be downloaded to a printer, either because the font is a bitmap or because embedding of the font is restricted in that document. In these cases, a substitute font is used for printing, and the printed output may not match the screen display exactly. For information on seeing what substituted fonts will look like on another system, see "Previewing PDF files without embedded fonts" on page 57. If Download Asian Fonts is not selected, the PDF document prints correctly only if the referenced fonts are installed on the printer. If the fonts are not on the printer but the printer has similar fonts, the printer substitutes the similar fonts. If there are no suitable fonts on the printer, Courier is used for the text. If you have a PostScript Level 1 printer that does not support Type 0 font extensions, or if Download Asian Fonts does not produce the results you want, print the PDF document as a bitmap image. Printing a document as an image may take longer than using a substituted printer font. 4 To set additional print features including tiling, output tray selection, and color management options, click the Advanced button. For information on advanced printing options, see "Printing oversize pages using tiling" on page 27, "Selecting a printer output tray (Windows only)" on page 28, and "Managing color on a printer" on page 239. Printing oversize pages using tiling Tiling is used to print oversize pages. (The alternative is to scale the image to fit the print page.) The oversize page is divided into tiles or sections, each of which is printed on one page. Automatic tiling is designed to use the minimum number of sheets per image. To set the tiling options: 1 In the Print Settings dialog box, select automatic or no tiling. Select Automatic to tile the image across multiple sheets if necessary. If you select None, all the other tiling options are grayed out. 2 In the Overlap text box, enter a value of 0 to 0.333 times the PDF page width or height (whichever is the smaller).This overlap is designed to be equivalent to the margin in which your laser printer cannot print, and the units are those specified in the Page Units setting of the General Preferences. After you trim off this overlap or unprinted area, the tiled sheets line up exactly. 3 Select Scale to increase or decrease the size of your current image. Using Help | Contents | Index Back 27
