Printing to a PostScript File
From Adobe Illustrator 6.0

Printing to a PostScript file is not a difficult process, but it is very important that your printer setup and print settings are correct. IMAGERS will not be able to open or change a PostScript file, so double-check all settings to ensure proper output. First-time customers may want to send their native Illustrator files, support files, and font files. This provides us with the flexibility to remake the PostScript files if necessary. Incorrectly made files will incur the same charges as properly made files.

1. Confirm LaserWriter as chosen printer.

2. Confirm Page Setup selection as discussed.

3. Choose Print from File menu.

4. Select File in Destination field and set for composite, Level2 and Binary. Ensure that Color/Grayscale is selected under options (Fig 1).

5. Select Save to begin printing process.

6. You are prompted to name the PostScript file. Choose Binary, Level 2, and Font inclusion: All. The name should contain no more than 8 characters. Add a .CPS extension to the end. Name the PostScript file to match the original document name for ease of identification (Fig 2).

INFORM IMAGERS OF YOUR PAGE SIZE ON YOUR ORDER FORM TO ENSURE PROPER OUTPUT (i.e. Page Setup 9x6). Remember, we will not be able to open your PostScript files, so we will not know the page size.
