Trapping
In color printing, color inks or toners are applied separately to a page. A color
image has its component colors applied in color separations of cyan, magenta,
yellow and black. These color separations must be aligned (registered)
precisely to produce a quality full–color image. During printing, the paper or
media type may shift slightly. While the shift might be very small, the gaps
between the colors in the image can be noticeable. Color trapping corrects it by
overlapping colors slightly so that minor alignment issues are corrected.
To use trapping in a document, select a value for the print overlap pixel width:
Light, 0.5 pixel trapping; Medium, 1 pixel trapping; Heavy, 1.5 pixels trapping;
Very Heavy, 2 pixels trapping.
Note: Trapping is not available when PCL 5c or PDF is selected in the PDL
Settings dialog box.
Gloss Mode
Gloss mode simulates high-gloss copies by adding a glossy appearance to
printed text and images.
Note: When Gloss mode is selected, EcoPrint options are unavailable.
Fonts
A computer font is a data file containing a set of glyphs (visual representations
of textual elements), characters, or symbols. Common terms for fonts are:
Outline fonts, in contrast to bitmap fonts, are defined as a set of
mathematical lines and curves. An outline font is more easily scalable
(designed to display and print clearly at any point size) than a bitmap font.
Bitmap fonts define each character as a pattern of pixels (the smallest
resolvable rectangular areas of an image). Such fonts are not easily scalable
and distort when reduced or enlarged.
Native fonts are the basic or original fonts installed with the computer
operating system. TrueType fonts are the native fonts used by Microsoft
Windows.
TrueType fonts are a type of scalable outline fonts. TrueType has long been
the most common format for fonts on Microsoft Windows.
