Working with office applications
This chapter provides instructions for printing color documents from QuickDraw and
GDI applications such as presentation, spreadsheet, and word processing applications.
You can use these instructions with the Microsoft Office 97 and Microsoft Office 95
suite of applications and Persuasion v3.0.
Working with office applications
Before printing from these applications, make sure the appropriate printer driver and
the DocuColor 40 CP PPD are installed on your computer as described in Getting
Started. The DocuColor 40 CP color management system provides complete color
management for jobs printed from office applications.
Defining colors
Office applications use the RGB color model. For instructions on defining colors, see
“Choosing colors in office applications” on page 3-3.
Working with imported files
Use EPS format files for all raster images you import into office applications. They
print at their full resolution on the DocuColor 40 CP (not at the low resolution used
for the screen preview).
Although your application may allow you to import a variety of file formats, EPS
format files are recommended for all raster images you want to import; some
applications have printing problems when using file formats such as TIFF and PICT.
All RGB images placed in your document are affected by your RGB Source and
Rendering Style settings.
