9. Choose Optimized Subsampling in the Images Send Data menu.
Th is menu determines how much data
is sent to the output device for placed
images.
• All, the default option, sends full-
resolution image data.
• Optimized Subsampling sends
only the necessary data to output
the best possible resolution on the
printer you are using.
• Proxy outputs low-resolution screen
previews, which reduces the time
required for output.
• None outputs all placed images as
gray frames with crossed diagonal
lines. Th is is useful for reviewing overall placement when developing an initial
layout comp.
If you are using a compatible output device, the Fonts Download menu determines
how much font data is downloaded to the printer. (Font data is required by the output
device to print the job correctly.)
• None sends no font information to the printer. (Th is can cause output
problems, especially if you use TrueType fonts.)
• Complete sends the entire font fi le for every font used in the document.
• Subset sends font information only for the characters used in the document.
Professional-quality output devices include a number of resident fonts, from just a
few to the entire Adobe type library. If the Download PPD Fonts option is checked,
InDesign sends data for all fonts in the document, even if those fonts are installed on
the output device. (Th is can be important because diff erent fonts of the same name
might have diff erent font metrics, which can cause text to refl ow and appear diff erent
in the print than in the fi le you created.)
