PrintParams Class Documentation

When true, apply print-specific visibility state settings from the optional-content group.

true if binary data is permitted in the PostScript file, false otherwise. It is overridden by the printer's "Output Protocol" device settings. The default value is true.

DPI for bitmaps. The default is 300. This will only work when you set useFullResolutionJP2KData to false; it should not be less than 50.

If true, do not set rendering intent in PostScript stream due to broken non-default CRDs. This is not honored anymore: its value is always false.

true if CropBox output is centered on the page when the CropBox < MediaBox, false otherwise. The default value is true.

Disable flattening of the PDF file; transparency data will be ignored. Also note the preprocessor define below.

Do the overprint preview operation.

When true, print using proofing settings.

Determines whether to tile none, all, or only large pages.

Sets the duplex mode if the device supports duplex printing. The default value is kPDDuplexOff.

Emit black generation. The default is true.

Emit images for Level-1 separations. The default value is false. This will be honored only when printing to a printer.

When emitting the extended graphics state, if this flag is true, include the device-dependent parameters (overprint, black generation, undercolor removal, transfer, halftone, halftone phase, smoothness, flatness, rendering intent) in addition to the device-independent parameters (font, line width, line cap, line join, miter limit, dash pattern). If this flag is false, only the device-independent parameters will be emitted. This flag overrides emitHalftones; if this is false, then halftones are not emitted. The default is true.

Honors the flatness settings over gstate flatness.

Preserve any halftone screening in the PDF file. The default value is false.

When true, it requests that separations, one sheet per ink, be generated in the RIP (printer).

If true, emit a PostScript file. The default value is true.

Emit page clip. The default is true.

Emit a concat at the beginning of each page so that the page is properly rotated. Used when emitting EPS. The default value is false.

true if adding no unnecessary filters when emitting image data, false otherwise. The default value is false.

If emitting EPS, include only CMYK and gray images.

Emit TrueType fonts before any other fonts. The default value is false.

Emit transfer. The default is true.

Emit undercolor removal. The default is true.

true if small pages are to be scaled up to fit the printer page size, false, otherwise. It overrides the scale. The default value is true.

GDI to PS or download CJK fonts PDPDFarEastFont_Print_As_Image will not be honored.

Get the resolution for flattening the edges of atomic regions.

ExternalDPI for flattening defaults to 144 (72x2).

DPI for gradients interior to the object (not edges). It can generally be lower than the bitmapResolution. The default is 150.

Do hostBased color management using the destination profile. The default is false, which means doing CSA generation for profiles instead of converting all colors on the host.

Embed the base fonts. The default value is kIncludeOncePerDoc.

Embed CID fonts. The default value is kIncludeNever.

Embed fonts that are embedded in the PDF file. This overrides the incType1Fonts, incTrueTypeFonts, and incCIDFonts fields. The default value is kIncludeWhenNeeded.

Include all other types of resources in the file. The default value is kIncludeByRange.

Include Procsets in the file. The default value is kIncludeOncePerDoc. This is not honored anymore: its value is always false. Procsets are always emitted at the document level.

Embed TrueType fonts. The default value is kIncludeNever.

Embed Type 1 fonts. The default value is kIncludeNever.

Proofing settings: simulate ink black.

Used when setPageSize is true to prevent unneeded setpagedevice calls.

Used when setPageSize is true to prevent unneeded setpagedevice calls.

The line weight to use for printer marks.

true if the printer is a Mac QuickDraw printer, false otherwise.

Specify the style to use for page marks. The PDPrintMarkStyles enum contains possible styles. It applies to print separations.

One of the following constants: kPDPrintFlipNone = 0x01 kPDPrintFlipX = 0x02 kPDPrintFlipY = 0x04 kPDPrintFlipXY = 0x08

Mirroring is done in the PostScript output stream.

When true, invert the plate.

Enables collation for the viewer.

If true, do it fast; false means PostScript code must be page-independent. If it is set to true, font downloads are forced from kIncludeOnEveryPage to kIncludeOncePerDoc. The default is true.

An optional-content context that determines what contents are visible. null uses the document's optional-content context.

This context is copied and the copy is used in drawing. This allows a client to change its copy of the context without raising an exception.

Print PostScript or EPS with or without a preview. EPS preview generation is not available on UNIX.

Get the page ranges for printing.

Proofing settings: simulate paper white.

Print the document, the document and comments, or document form fields only.

Annotation flags which modify PDPrintWhat to enable Pro product behavior.

PostScript level: 1, 2, or 3. The default value is 3.

If set to true, reverse the order of page output.

Enable the auto-rotating behavior from past versions of PDFL.

true if the page is to be rotated to fit the printer's orientation and centered in the printer's page size; false, otherwise. The default value is true. Rotation and centering (true) only occur, however, if the page contents are too wide to fit on a narrow page (or vice versa) and the page contents are less than an inch smaller than the target page in one direction.

true means try to save VM when printing to PostScript. The default is true.

The document-wide scale factor. 100.0 = full size. The default value is 100.

(PostScript level 2 only) Set the page size on each page. Use the media box for outputting to PostScript files, use the crop box for EPS files. Default is false.

true if the page is scaled to fit the printer page size, false, otherwise. This field overrides the scale. The default value is true.

If true, do not do CJK substitution on the printer. This will work only when farEastFontOpt is PDPDFarEastFont_Download_None.

Do not emit CSAs for 4-component (CMYK) colors. This will take precedence over the hostbasedCM settings.

When true, suppress OPP for pages that do not contain spot colors

When this is set, emit TrueType fonts as CIDType2 instead of as CIDFontType0.

If including TrueType fonts, convert to Type 42 fonts instead of Type 1 fonts. The default value is false.

The transparency flattening quality. The range is 0-100. Lower values flatten faster. Higher values provide better quality. The default is 80, which usually provides good quality at a reasonable speed.

When true, emit execform calls when emitting Form XObjects.

Used when printing with system fonts. The default value is false.

Determines whether to use the maximum available JPEG2000 resolution.

If true, store all possible resources in VM.
