Choose **File**, then **Export PDF…**, pick a **Preset**, click **OK** and name the file.
|
|
|
|
Shortcuts on this page use Ctrl. On macOS, use Cmd instead of Ctrl.
|
|
|
|
## Steps
|
|
|
|
1. Open the **File** menu and choose **Export PDF…**.
|
|
2. In the **Export PDF** dialog, pick a **Preset:** (see the table below).
|
|
3. Under **General**, leave **Page Range:** as `all`, or type the pages you want, for example `1-3,5`. **Spreads** is a checkbox in the same section.
|
|
4. Under **Compression**, tick or clear **Compress images**.
|
|
5. Under **Marks and Bleeds**, tick **Include document bleed**, **Crop Marks**, **Bleed Marks** or **Page Information** as your printer asks. **Weight:** and **Offset:** set the marks.
|
|
6. Under **Advanced**, pick a **Standard:** (**None**, **PDF/X-4** or **PDF/A-2b**) and decide on **Tagged PDF**.
|
|
7. Click **OK**, then choose where to save. The file name starts as your document's title with `.pdf`.
|
|
|
|
## Presets
|
|
|
|
Picking a preset fills in the other settings. Changing any setting by hand switches the preset to **Custom**.
|
|
|
|
| Preset | Standard | Compress images | Crop marks | Bleed marks |
|
|
|---------------------|----------|-----------------|------------|-------------|
|
|
| Desktop Printing | None | off | off | off |
|
|
| Commercial Printing | None | on | on | on |
|
|
| Screen and Email | None | on | off | off |
|
|
| PDF/X-4 | PDF/X-4 | off | on | on |
|
|
| PDF/A-2b | PDF/A-2b | off | off | off |
|
|
|
|
**Screen and Email** also sets the transparency flattener to low resolution, which draws pages with transparency at 72 ppi. DesignCraft remembers your last settings for next time.
|
