Print as bitmap
When
you print to a non-PostScript printer, you can choose to rasterize
all artwork during printing. This option is useful when printing
documents that contain complex objects (such as objects
with smooth shading or gradients) because it reduces the possibility
of errors.
- Choose File > Print.
- Select Advanced on the left side of the Print dialog
box.
- Select Print As Bitmap.
This option is available only if the printer driver identifies
the printer as non-PostScript. If this option is selected for non-PostScript
printers in Mac OS 10.3 or later, InDesign prints
PostScript, which is then used by Mac OS and the driver
to render the page images. In Windows, the high-end color and graphics
features may not be converted appropriately if this option is not
selected.
- Specify a resolution for bitmap printing.
The output resolution may be limited by the printer driver’s
resolution. To get the best quality output, set the non-PostScript
printer driver resolution to be equal or greater than the output
resolution specified in the InDesign Print dialog box.
