Working with imported files
Your application may allow you to import a variety of file formats.
If you encounter printing problems when using other imported
file formats such as TIFF and PICT, EPS files are recommended.
Note:
If you are unable to import EPS elements, it may be
necessary to perform a “custom install” of your Microsoft Office
applications.
Even when there are no user-defined color management options
within office applications, color conversions do occur when you
import images or page elements that were not defined in RGB. To
avoid such conversions with imported files, use the EPS file format
for non-RGB artwork that is to be imported into office
applications.
All RGB images placed in a document are affected by the settings
you choose for the RGB Source and Rendering Style print options.
Mixing imported image types (Advanced color
management)
If you place multiple RGB images—mixed non-photographic and
photographic—into an office application file, a single
may not
optimize output for all the images. In this case, you may want the
photographic images to bypass the CRD altogether. To accomplish
this, open the photographic image in
mode with a pixel-
editing application, such as Photoshop, and perform color
correction. Save the image as a Photoshop EPS and import it into
the document.
Selecting options when printing
There are few differences among office applications with regard to
Fiery printing. To specify print options and color management
settings, follow the instructions in the
Chapter 1
. To
specify these options, you must use a PostScript Level 2 (or later)
printer driver, such as an Adobe PostScript Printer Driver.
