FlightCheck Page Setup Options

These settings for page setup options in Markzware FlightCheck deal with options that some print drives contain that affect the output of the file and could cause layout problems.

Landscape - This Ground Control will trigger if the paper orientation has been set to Landscape. This can be a problem if the Designer sets the paper orientation to Landscape, and the Printer outputs in Portrait, as this may cause clipping of the image in the final printed piece. See also Print Preferences.

Portrait – This Ground Control will trigger if the paper orientation has been set to Portrait. This can be a problem if the Designer sets the paper orientation to Portrait and the Printer outputs in Landscape, as this may cause clipping of the image in the final printed piece.

Reduce - This Ground Control will trigger if a page has been set to print at a scaling factor, or scale factor, of less that 100%.

Enlarge – This Ground Control will trigger if a page has been set to print at a scaling factor of greater than 100%.

Options - This Ground Control will trigger if the user has selected additional Printer Options. ****This is very OS9′ish in terminology. Printer dialog boxes have changed under OS X.

N Up - This Ground Control will trigger if the user has set the job to print with more than one page per piece of paper. Under OS X, this is now found under the Layout menu.

Cover Page Before - This Ground Control will trigger if the user has selected Print Cover Page Before a document. This is a problem for Printers, as it causes, in most workflows, wasted film and plates.

Cover Page After - This Ground Control will trigger if the user has selected Print Cover Page After a document. This is a problem for Printers as it causes, in most workflows, wasted film and plates.
