Xerox Phaser 540 Leaflet

There are 3.0 and 4.x versions of the PPD files; use the version required by 
your application.  Each version is located in a separate folder.  However, if 
you need to check the file’s version number (3.0 or 4.x), open the file in a text 
editor and check the 

*FormatVersion line near the beginning of the file.    

The PPD and PDX files are compressed into the Phaser 540 Apps.sea archive 
file on the Macintosh Driver and Printer Utilities diskette.  Follow the 
instructions on page 2-12 to decompress these files, then continue with the 
steps that follow for your version of the application. Most applications that 
use version 3.0 PPD files also use PDX files.

The TKPH5401.PDX and TKPH5401.PPD files in the 3.0 PPDs folder are 
PostScript Printer Description files for use with Aldus, Adobe, and other 
applications.  Refer to your application’s documentation to see if this is the 
PPD version you should use.             

Locate the 3.0 PPDs Folder in the folder on your hard disk 
containing decompressed files.

Place the 3.0 PPD file and the PDX file with your other PPD files 
on your hard disk according to application needs.  

Typically, PPD files are located in the PPDs folder, in the Aldus 
folder, inside the System Folder.  Refer to your application’s 
documentation for details.  This file is used automatically by 
applications that require the information.

■

If you are using Canvas 3.0, drag the 3.0 PPD and PDX files into 
the PPDs folder on your computer’s hard disk.  The PPDs folder 
may be found in the Canvas folder if you don’t have any Aldus 
applications.
