Hi all,
I have a number of marketing users who, at the moment, must turn on "Simulate Overprint" on every single document. Additionally, after the output preview box is closed, the view reverts back and layers are dropped off.
Is there any way to turn "Simulate Overprint" automatically On and keep it that way? Users are all on Windows 10.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
Renato
Output Preview is a separate specialist function, not a switch. You can’t make Acrobat work in Output Preview mode except when the function was opened and has not been closed.

Open the Output Preview dialog in Adobe Acrobat Pro in order to view all available visual preview options. To get there, click on the “Tools” tab, then scroll down to “Protect & Standardize,” then finally click on “Print Production.” In the right-hand pane, click “Output Preview.”

Thanks Ebony,
But users know how to turn it on, the issue here is having that automatically turned on.
As it is, they have to do it every single time, and it's just becoming quite taxing on them.
Cheers

On a PC:

Under “Page Content and Information”, the “Use Overprint Preview” dropdown menu, confirm or change to be set to Always.

I've been playing around with the for a while now. Im using a Mac, I think I have the fix.
It's the printer diolog rather than the Adobe Settings that you want to change.
Print... > Advanced > output > Simulate Overprinting.
Check that box off and you are good to go, it will save the settings as defult.

You can set Simulate Overprinting to be turned on automatically. It will have to be saved as a Custom Setting:
Every time you print a PDF from this point forward, your new print setting will be selected by default. It will only change if you change the Setting dropdown to something else.
