Question

What Acrobat adjustments are needed for TCS 5 (FM 12 Acrobat 11 Pro)?

It used to be that Acrobat, Distiller, and the PDF printer instance needed some tweaking when first installed, because Adobe's default settings were suboptimal.

Now I have TCS 5 (FM12 and Acrobat 11 Pro), what settings do I need to adjust in:

  • Acrobat
  • Distiller
  • PDF printer?

For example, I plan to embed and subset fonts, and not use font substitution, download TrueType Fonts as Softfont, and download as Native TrueType, and ask to replace existing PDF file (these last three apparently must be set in the printer instance as well as Acrobat settings).... Does print quality 1200dpi work well, for example (in the past, it has had issues)?

Thanks,

Sean

Forgot,

Device settings, change output protocol from ASCII to binary, substitution table, only substitute courier for courier new and symbol for symbol, nothing else.

Question: Rely on system fonts only; do not use document fonts .... Why would document fonts be different than system fonts (unless, perhaps, this prevents me from using printer fonts)?
