Subtitles of the Movie

Well, how about it if you want to make a pdf file quickly and easily out of say Microsoft word. Well here is a word document I created. It was one of the chapters I made for stereo graphics and you can see that it's a very simple document, with text and one picture; well Acrobat makes something called the pdf writer, the pdf writer is a print driver essentially which instead of sending it to an attached printer will write out a pdf file. So, with that already selected in my chooser I going to go to file menu and choose page setup first. Page set up brings up some options to control the parameters for a pdf writer and the two I am going to talk about are compression and fonts. When you click on fonts, and you can see that with the pdf writer allows us to embed or not to embed fonts, this is a very helpful feature, and this is one of the big reasons why Acrobat pdf's are so great is because they usually have the fonts in them, that the document needs to display correctly or display the way you intended it to. We have couple of options: the first option in the one I often choose is embed all fonts, this way I don't really have to pick and choose. But if that's not enabled, you can choose to always embed certain fonts that you have available on your computer and also never embed certain fonts. You might choose never embed something like Arial or Palatino - fonts that are fairly common almost proposed computers. However I am going to choose embed all fonts and what this will do is that it won't embed all of these fonts in my document, it will only embed the fonts on this list that are used in my document so in this case only Arial. We have some options for how we want to have images compressed and this is kind of important considering I have an image in my document, and the one I want to talk about is bitmap images. So a bit map image might be a photograph, or in this case it is a bitmap image that I derived from an illustrator graphic. If you enable compression which I recommend doing it will jpeg compress your images and what jpeg is, is a lossy compression scheme, that will balance image quality for file size. So a jpeg medium is a happy medium - it balances a medium file size for a decent look. If you jpeg high, it will highly compress your image making very small files which are very fast to download over the Internet or as an email attachment but your image will look kind of crummy, you will see artifacts in it. Conversely you can choose to jpeg low and that will be just the opposite it won't compress very much, making your file size fairly large but creating a overall pleasing effect for your image. So I will just stick with the default medium. For monochrome bitmap images this is really for something like a logo, or a corporate logo and this setting is just fine. So, I'm ready to go: I'm going to choose file menu and choose print, brings up options from my pdf writer you can choose to print all your pages, which in this case just one or if you have multiple pages you can choose the range. Give it a title, a subject tell it who the author is in you can even type in keywords at this point. Finally it asks it brings up the save as looking dialog box because remember you are not actually printing, you are actually saving this pdf document. So you need to make sure it has to right name and make sure you are sending it to the directory or the folder you wish it to end up in. So there we go - it just wrote out the file. I'm just going to go and choose Acrobat, Click on my open folder icon here and here is my document written out from Microsoft Word. Looks pretty much like the word document and it did an ok job my image here. So that's a quick and easy way of writing out pdf files from Microsoft word. The caveat I want to mention here is that pdf writer and pdf maker which is available in the windows platform, is quite good for fairly simple formatted documents such as a Microsoft word or Excel document, but for documents that come out of a page layout program such as Quark Express or Page Maker or Indesign. These documents have a lot more formatting involved and they also usually deal with a lot more different types of content, from text to bitmap images and placed eps files. If you're working with that you're almost always going to want to take advantage of the two step process that is writing out a postscript file, and then using Acrobat distiller to distill pdf files; and when you use distiller you have lot more control over all these different parameters. e, and then using Acrobat distiller to distill pdf files; and when you use distiller you have lot more control over all these different parameters.
