Converting Documents from PDF to PostScript
The DCM application allows you to submit Adobe Acrobat’s Portable
Document Format (PDF) into an Input Queue for conversion to PostScript
prior to sending the document to the Xerox production printers. This
feature allows clients to place PDF documents in a well-known directory
for printing from the EC-PJM without requiring the client or EC-PJM user
to view the PDF document in Acrobat Reader prior to performing the print
operation.
