Aldus and Adobe applications

Aldus and Adobe applications, such as PageMaker and FreeHand, use PostScript printer description (PPD) files. Refer to your applications’ documentation for details on using PPD files.

Note To add PPDs for printers other than the Phaser 350 printer, open the WIN95_NT directory on the printer’s CD-ROM.

1.Locate the printer’s PPD files:

■On the printer’s CD-ROM in the WIN95_NT directory.

■On the Printer Software for Windows diskette at the top level.

2.Select a PPD file:

■Use TK350171.PPD if you have the standard version of the printer.

■Use TK350691.PPD if you have the printer’s Extended Features option.

Note If you are not sure which configuration of the printer you have, the printer’s startup page lists this information under Extended Features: Yes/No. See page 2-29 for instructions on printing a copy of the printer’s startup page.

3.Copy the PPD file to the directory on your hard disk where other PPD files are located. For example, the subdirectory in FreeHand’s File Manager containing printer description files should be called:

ALDUS\USENGLISH\PPD4
