error occurs that stops the output in PlanetPress Design, the partial job will continue to print. This is because Plan-

etPress has no way to tell Windows to stop its printing and remove the job from its printer queue.

Printing Using a Windows Driver

Can I print using a Windows driver and how does it differ from other printing methods?

PlanetPress Design lets you print your document and data using any Windows printer driver. Note that this option generates

large print files and that it therefore does not provide the same level of speed and performance as the Optimized PostScript

Stream and Printer Centric methods (the latter being the fastest and most efficient). See "Print Using a Windows Driver" (page

668).

Generate a Soft Proof

Soft proofs are document previews that show no watermarks. Each soft proof has a maximum of 10 pages, so if your Plan-

etPress Design document has only 1 page, the soft proof can show as many as 10 records, but if your document has 10 pages,

the soft proof can show only a single record.

As with document previews, soft proofs must be generated one output type at a time. If your document contains more than

one output type, you must preview each separately.

Note that if you look at a document that uses one of the 35 standard PostScript fonts and that includes the Euro glyph, you are

likely to find out that although this glyph is displayed at design time it does not show up in previews. If this is the case, faxes

and archives generated usingPlanetPress Suite Workflow Tools will also lack this glyph. Try printing to see if the printer is able

to recognize and print this glyph.

To generate a soft proof:

1. From the PlanetPress Design Button, choose Soft Proof.

2. Select the data pages you want to use for the preview in the Data page range group.

All data pages: Select to use all data pages (or in the case of a database emulation, all record sets) in the sample

data file. It is important to understand that this refers to data pages and not document pages. The presence or absence
