A741 30 Print Server Manual
option will effect on all documents in the project. It is not possible to
enable/disable custom pensets on a plot by plot basis.
3. Moment of document RIPping (Raster Image Processor, see Glossary)
Typically select the 'RIP immediately' option on the server PC, on all
other network clients set to 'RIP when printed'.
4. Optional settings for server use
These settings have effect on the server PC only. If the 'Prompt on
interrupt' option is enabled you are asked if you really want to interrupt
the current printjob, if disabled the job is interrupted without any
question.
If you do not wish to use the accounting system you can mark the
second item. Normally the accounting system will be used.
5. Image Editor (optional)
By default the A741 Repro Client program will use Imaging for document
viewing. Imaging is a standard accessory program supplied with
Windows '95/NT. Use the Browse button to select any other editor
program if desired.
7.3 Setting program defaults
None of the supported fileformats (TIFF, HP-GL, CalComp etc) will contain
device specific commands like paper/roll selection etc. When importing a
document in a project the default settings are applied for that document.
With the dialog as presented when selecting the 'Tools -> Default Settings'
menu option, you can set these defaults.
7.4 Importing documents, how are they processed?
It is important to understand which processes take place when importing a
file and what happens when rfxServer applies the final settings.
Importing a document.
When importing a document the following processes (actions) will take
place:
Vector files (HP-GL, CalComp) are converted into a bitmap at the original
size (e.g. if the plotdata specifies a A3 size document a true--A3- size
bitmap is generated. During this conversion phase the pen settings are
applied as well (either as specified in the document or defined in the user
pensets).
Bitmap files (BMP, TIFF etc) are decompressed (if necessary) into a true-
size bitmap file.
From this true-size bitmap a 'Thumbnail' file is generated for quick and
easy viewing in the client window. Then the true-size bitmap file is
compressed (TIFF G4 compression) and stored as a Raster file. This will
be the actual image which will be printed.
To see where these files are stored goto the plot/print file properties, and
select the names tab.
