CAUTION: Please make sure the lines you are adding follow exactly the format described here. A spelling mistake or an extra space may cause Persuasion to ignore these lines with no warning.

PhotoStyler

You must check the Halftone by Printer box in PhotoStyler's Page Setup window. Otherwise, PhotoStyler will limit the bitmaps to 16 colors when printing to Windows BLL Generator Driver.

If you choose Scale to Fit in the PhotoStyler's Print window, PhotoStyler will resample bitmaps to the film recorder's resolution instead of letting Windows BLL Generator do the work. This will make Windows BLL Generator print job files very large and make the processing very slow.

Word, Write

These applications assume a white background and always print text in black. So, when printing to the film recorder, you must explicitly select a white Background in Windows BLL Generator Driver's setup window. Otherwise, you will get black text printed on a black background.
