To change PDF preferences
GoLive lets you change several conversion, display, and security preferences for PDF documents. If you regularly use
certain settings to create PDF files, changing the preferences can help you work more efficiently.
1
Choose Edit > Preferences (Windows) or GoLive > Preferences (Mac OS).
2 In the list on the left, select Adobe PDF, and then select from the following groups of default settings:
HTML To PDF Conversion Sets the default PDF preset and page size. (GoLive applies the default page size if a preset
doesn’t specify this information.)
PDF Optimization Enables or disables Optimize For Fast Web View.
To ensure that uploaded PDF files have the smallest file size possible, select Rewrite PDF Files in the Upload/Export
section of the Site preferences. For more information, see “To select site export options” on page 448.
Initial View Determines default Zoom Factor and Display Mode.
Document Display Determines default smoothing of text and graphics, display of annotations, and colors for page
backgrounds and links.

About Adobe PDF presets
A PDF preset is a predefined set of PDF options that you can use to create Adobe PDF files. The settings in default
presets balance file size with quality for specific mediums, such as the web, mobile devices, or print. You can also
create new presets with custom settings.
All Adobe Creative Suite applications (Acrobat, GoLive, Illustrator, InDesign, and Photoshop) share PDF presets. For
more information about shared PDF settings, see the PDF Integration Guide on the Creative Suite CD.
GoLive provides the following Adobe PDF presets:
Note:
Both of these presets use the Single Page Layout option, which prevents page breaks in web content.
GoLive Default
Creates PDF files that are optimized for web browsers, reducing file size for fast downloads while
retaining features such as form elements, interactivity, and multimedia. This preset utilizes recent enhancements to
the PDF format, producing files that can be opened in Acrobat 6.0 and later.
Mobile PDF Creates PDF files that are optimized for mobile devices, such as cell phones and PDA’s. To accom­
modate these devices, page size is reduced for small screens, and file size is optimized for fast downloads. For broad
mobile compatibility, this preset produces files that can be opened in Acrobat 5.0 and later.
Other Adobe CS applications install additional presets. For more information, see InDesign Help, Illustrator Help, or
Photoshop Help.
