PDF Files for Printing
In order to print with good results from a PDF, the PDF you make MUST be distilled to the PDF-X/1a industry standard OR to our own Press-Ready standard (click below for the Job Options file for your version of Distiller). For a PDF file produced by High-Tech Printing with instructions on How to Produce a Press-Ready PDF with one of our Job Options files, click here.
