Adobe
PageMaker Windows PC
We
can accept Pagemaker documents in their native format, providing all fonts
and linked items are supplied. We can also process both EPS and Postscript
files from this application. Step-by-step instructions can be found below.
For
optimum colour reproduction, we require all colours/images to be saved,
or printed to postscript file using CMYK colour model. If converting images
to CMYK, either within the document or when printing to file, it is important
that an appropriate colour profile within colour management options is
selected. Where Pantone spot colours are to be used, we advise contacting
us for advice on how to supply the files, prior to placing your order.
Creating
a Postscript (PRN and EPS) File
Install the required printer as the temporary default
printer.
Please Note: when using pagemaker, a copy of the PPD will need to be placed
into the appropriate folder, which contains the PPDS for pagemaker itself.
(Usually held in C:\PM56\RSRC\UKENGLISH\PPD4).
