Produce reliable output
 
PageMaker provides support for the leading print standards. Output files to any printing device, including 
high-end commercial printers.
 
Consistent, predictable color 
 
PageMaker provides several features that enhance color output, whether you’re printing to a desktop printer 
or a commercial press. Ensure consistent and predictable color throughout your design, proofing, and 
printing process. Use knockout, overprint, and trapping to compensate for misregistration or hue shift 
between colors. 
Each publication contains its own collection of colors, available through the Colors palette. Define your own 
colors, select them from a color-matching system, or import them with an EPS graphic.
Easily specify spot or process colors, import spot colors from EPS files to the PageMaker palette, convert image 
formats from RGB to CMYK TIFF for separations, and instantly remove unused colors from a publication file.
 
Color management
 
Support for the ICC color management profile standards means you can share device profiles between 
multiple color management systems. Each device you use to create a publication—scanners, monitors, 
desktop printers, and printer presses—can reproduce or display a limited set of colors. A color management 
system obtains the color characteristics of each device and then maps this information between devices. By 
taking advantage of color management, you help ensure the quality and consistency of color output.
 
Advanced printing options
 
Using the Save for Service Provider plug-in, follow simple, guided steps to consolidate everything your 
printer needs in a single file. Specify duplexing options. The Build Booklet plug-in creates multipage spreads 
that print on a single sheet and assume the correct page order when folded.
 
Enhanced PDF export
 
Export publications directly to Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) files, maintaining the design and 
layout for accurate, high-quality printing. Adobe PDF files can be downloaded, viewed, and printed from 
several different platforms with the page layout and typography of the original publication intact.
PageMaker 7.0 includes Acrobat Distiller® 5.0 and Acrobat Reader 5.0—everything you need to create and 
view Adobe PDF files. Add document information, change security options, and modify advanced Distiller 
settings—all from within PageMaker.
