Preparing PDF files for a print provider

Open Prepress Interface (OPI) lets you use low-resolution images as placeholders for the high-resolution images that appear in your final work. When a print provider receives your file, the OPI server substitutes the low-resolution images with the high-resolution images.

Printers’ marks provide information to the print provider about how the work should be printed. You can specify which printers’ marks to include on the page. The available printers’ marks are as follows:

To maintain OPI links in a PDF file Back to Top

*

Don’t use OPI links if you are not sure whether your PDF file is destined for an OPI server.

To include printers’ marks in a PDF file Back to Top

Usually, a bleed amount of 0.125 to 0.25 inch is sufficient. Any object extending beyond this amount uses space needlessly and may cause problems when you print multiple pages with bleeds on a single sheet of paper.
