On Microsoft Windows computers, the Universal PDF Printer printer displays the
print job as a PDF file in Adobe Reader, which then prints the PDF file to your
default printer. The Universal PDF Viewer printer displays the print job as a PDF file
in Adobe Reader. You can then decide whether to print or save the PDF file.
On UNIX, Linux, and Mac OS X platform computers, there is no difference between
the Universal PDF Printer and Universal PDF Viewer printers, as the print job is
always displayed as a PDF file in a PDF viewer. You can then decide whether to
print or save the PDF file.
Using PDF Printing
From a Windows application, you print in the normal way and select either the
Universal PDF Printer or the Universal PDF Viewer printer in the application’s Print
dialog box.
From an application running on a UNIX or Linux platform application server, you
print in the normal way, specifying a PDF printer as part of the print command. For
example:
The
file
must be a PostScript file, so the application must be able to output
PostScript.
On Windows computers, the PDF file is displayed in the Adobe Reader. Depending
on the printer you select, either of the following applies:
■
If the Universal PDF Printer printer is selected, the PDF file is printed
automatically to your default printer. The Adobe Reader runs minimized and
does not exit when the print job has finished.
■
If the Universal PDF Viewer printer is selected, the PDF file is displayed in the
Adobe Reader window. You can then decide whether to print or save the file.
On UNIX, Linux, and Mac OS X platform computers, the PDF file is displayed in a
PDF viewer. You can then decide whether to print or save the PDF file. There is no
difference between the Universal PDF Printer and the Universal PDF Viewer
printers, as the print job is always displayed in a PDF viewer.
