button. There will be a list of printers already installed through the OS X Print Center. In 
Windows, with no default settings file, ARTS PDF Crackerjack’s default is the default 

printer in your Windows “Printers” folder. You may choose from any printer in the drop-
down list and subsequently save it in your ARTS PDF Crackerjack defaults, or in another 

ARTS PDF Crackerjack settings file. 

 

Note: that on either system, you must also change your PPD in ARTS PDF Crackerjack when 
choosing a different printer. When you make a printer selection, ARTS PDF Crackerjack has all the 

information it needs to print. There is no need to select “Setup” in the “Chooser” menu or “Page 

Setup” in Acrobat. 

 

•  Copies  

 

This field allows specification of the number of copies to be printed. The default is 
one copy. 

 

•  Collate 

 

If the number of Copies is greater than one, this option is made available. If the 
box is checked, ARTS PDF Crackerjack performs software collation. If the selected 

device supports a hardware collator, the user may choose to use that option 
instead by selecting it from the Advanced Device Options (see below). Hardware 

collation will only be available if it is a supported option within the currently 
selected PPD. 

 

•  Device options 

 

ARTS PDF Crackerjack supports many traditional device options in a device 
independent way. For example, collation, negative and mirror print, separations, 

and screening are often treated as device options in other applications. ARTS PDF 
Crackerjack supports selected device options from the currently selected PPD. 

 

ƒ  Basic 

 

The initial list of device options includes input trays which are specified in the 

currently selected PPD. If the PPD indicates that the device supports 
duplexing, this option will also appear. 

 

ƒ  Advanced 

 

Clicking the Advanced... button will display an extended list of device-specific 
features defined in the PPD. 

 

Note: that many advanced options, such as separations, specialized halftone screening, etc. may 

conflict with choices made in ARTS PDF Crackerjack. Selecting these options may cause 

unpredictable output results. 

 

 
By choosing File, you are indicating to ARTS PDF Crackerjack that you want the output
