PDF

Output to PDF is a plug-in feature that lets you print and save documents from multiple sources to Adobe PDF. This feature can be used as an alternative to existing commercial applications for creating PDF documents. Documents saved as PDF retain their original appearance, and can be viewed and printed with Adobe Reader on Windows, Mac OS, and UNIX platforms.

For a document using mixed paper sizes, all pages in the PDF use the size of the first page.

Note: With PDF selected in the PDL Settings dialog box, only a limited set of driver options are available.

PDL Settings

When you click the Settings button, the available options are:

PCL XL Settings or KPDL Settings

Enable smart duplex printing

This option automatically keeps a sheet of paper from being sent through the duplex unit if the sheet will only be printed on one side. The duplex unit will be bypassed for the following types of print jobs: a one page document, one page from a multi-page document, or a multi-page document that prints onto a single sheet. Selecting this option can reduce wear on the mechanical duplex unit, and result in comparatively faster printing times.

PCL XL Settings

Skip printing blank pages

This option prevents the printing system from outputting any page that contains no data, or that has, at most, one space character. Selecting this option can save paper, and result in comparatively faster printing times. This feature is for regular printing (not for booklet, duplex or multiple pages per sheet).

KPDL Settings

Allow data passthrough

This option reduces errors when printing complex jobs from applications that use PostScript formatting. When selected, EMF spooling is not available in the Advanced tab.

PDF Settings

Provides options for printing and saving documents to Adobe PDF format.

See PDF topics for details.
