<Important!>
The platen size may become 14x16 inches when pressing Set From Printer, even after setting the size of
10x12 inches at "Document Properties" dialog box of Printer Driver. To make print data in platen size of 10x12
inches, set Width : 254 mm (10 inch), Height : 304.8 mm (12 inch).
If the print data file is not saved from the printer driver menu but application menu, the extension of the print
data is automatically ".prn" although you added ".ar3". Before you use GT-3 File Viewer to print, change the
extension to ".ar3" manually.
There are some cases reported in CorelDRAW 11/12 that outline Colors of curved texts (often by Envelop
Effects) are not fully printed. In those cases, convert the text object into Bitmap before you print or check
"Rasterize entire page (DPI)" checkbox in [ Misc ] tag of [ Print ] menu. Select the resolution by the type of
image and file size.
Change RGB=255 bitmap white to RGB=254:
RGB=255 (paper color) white is always transparent with no ink printed. When you print an image like photo, there
may be RGB=255 white spots and they will be ink holes. Follow the steps below to change RGB=255 white to
RGB=254 white.
(1) Select [ Effect ("Image" for CorelDRAW 12 or under)] > [ Adjust ] > [ Replace Colors ] menu.
(2) Set RGB=255 white to [ Old color ] and RGB=254 to [ New color ]. Set [ Range ] to [ 1 ] and click "OK".
