This dialog is extremely important for outputting from Calamus SL,
as its SoftRipping engine basically produces pixel data at a given
resolution, though many Mac OS drivers do not offer any usable
information about the resolutions actually available. That is why you
can choose here freely the resolution in which Calamus is to create
its output data. The dialog shows you first of all the resolutions
that the Mac OS driver recommends. For this it can specify one or more
individual resolutions, which are marked with an asterisk (*
)
in the resolution list. In addition, various drivers also specify a
range of resolutions that are particularly recommended.
Both values though are not binding (and occasionally even
incorrect): You can use any other desired resolution notwithstanding.
For this, use New
to create an additional entry in the list,
and alter the resolution to suit your purposes. With the two move
buttons (arrows up / down) you can rearrange the list entries
manually; Sort
arranges the list in ascending order.
Delete
removes the selected entry. But please note that the
asterisked recommended resolutions
will be restored the next
time the driver is called, provided that the resolutions are still
supported.
Incidentally, the resolution list – like all other settings – is managed separately for each individual Mac OS driver. If another Mac OS driver is chosen in the selector, MacPrint will switch over automatically to the corresponding settings.
Save
therefore does not just save the current resolution
list, but the complete settings of MacPrint for all Mac OS drivers
used previously.
