Printing Publications

Printing Publications

The whole point of creating publications is to publish them, which ”except for Web pages ”means printing the publications you've created. If you have a printer connected to your computer you can print publications right away. If you have special printing needs, however, you might want to use a commercial printer who can deliver high-quality color documents. The Pack And Go Wizard compacts all the information a printer needs across multiple disks, embedded fonts, includes linked graphics, and prints composite and separation proofs. If needed, you can double-click the Unpack.exe file to unpack and open the Pack And Go file.
