Hello! I am new to this board and was wondering if anyone could please help. I have a PSD file that I would like to make into a PDF using the print command in PhotoShop and changing the printer to Distiller. The original PSD files were created at 300dpi and I would like to know what compression to use, yada, yada, yada to email to a printer so my design will not loose any resolution when printed. I would like to make it into a printer PDF and am not sure how to set up the Distiller properties to do so. Can anybody help?

Just save it as a PDF. You don’t need to go through distiller.

Beth,

If you INSIST on using distiller, then no downsampling and ZIP compression are the settings you require
