1. Choose File > Print.
2. Choose Output from the pop-up menu.
3. Set one or more of the following options:
Prints an 11-step grayscale, a transition in density from 0 to 100% in 10% increments. With a CMYK color separation,
a gradient tint bar is printed to the left of each CMYK plate, and a progressive color bar to the right.
Calibration bars, registration marks, crop marks, and labels are printed only if the paper is larger than the printed image.
Prints registration marks on the image (including bull’s-eyes and star targets). These marks are used primarily for
aligning color separations on PostScript printers.
Prints crop marks where the page is to be trimmed. You can print crop marks at the corners. On PostScript printers,
selecting this option will also print star targets.
Prints crop marks where the page is to be trimmed. You can print crop marks at the center of each edge.
Prints any description text entered in the File Infodialog box, up to about 300 characters. Description text is always printed in
9-point Helvetica plain type.
Prints the file name above the image. If printing separations, the separation name is printed as part of the label.
Makes type readable when the emulsion is down—that is, when the photosensitive layer on a piece of film or photographic
paper is facing away from you. Normally, images printed on paper are printed with emulsion up, with type readable when the photosensitive
layer faces you. Images printed on film are often printed with emulsion down.
Prints an inverted version of the entire output, including all masks and any background color. Unlike the Invert command in the
Image menu, the Negative option converts the output, not the on-screen image, to a negative. If you print separations directly to film, you
probably want a negative, although in many countries film positives are common. Check with your print shop to determine which is required.
To determine the emulsion side, examine the film under a bright light after it has been developed. The dull side is the emulsion; the shiny
side is the base. Check whether your print shop requires film with positive emulsion up, negative emulsion up, positive emulsion down, or
negative emulsion down.
