PDFCreator Help |
General The general settings tab of the PDF settings menu allows the user to modify some basic settings when creating a PDF. Compatibility: Sets what version of the PDF format to use when converting a document into a PDF. The version corresponds to what version of Adobe® Acrobat® the PDF can open in. Auto-Rotate Pages: When used, automatically rotates horizontal pages to vertical and vertical pages to horizontal. You can choose to have the entire document rotates or just a single page. Overprint: Overprint is when one color is intentionally printed on top of another color without blending. When creating a PDF you have the option of having overprint on or off. When overprint is off it is called Non-Zero Overprint and when it is on it is called Full Overprint. Page layout: Specifies how pages are displayed. Single, two sides and whether scrolling should be used. Page mode: Specifies how to open the pdf file. Should bookmarks be displayed or whether should the document opened in full screen mode etc.. Start page: Determines which page should be displayed after opening.. Fast web view: When this setting is used, PDFCreator will optimize its PDF's for fast web viewing. Instead of the entire PDF document being downloaded before being displayed, it will display it as it is downloaded. Encryption cannot be used when this setting is enabled. If you do use encryption, the PDF is not optimized. |
