33. ons PDF Direct works in conjunction with the printer memory or the printer Hard Disk An internal algorithm was set up in order to speed up the conversion and the printing phase This algorithm reads the PDF file and selects the best parsing mechanism When a printer hard disk is installed PDF Direct parses a percentage of pages depending on the total number of pages and while printing converted pages it converts the remaining pages This is done to achieve the engine speed but it s important to understand that the conversion and the printing time depend on the complexity of the PDF file This algorithm allows the user to print complex and large jobs even in the standard base printer as long as it has at least 32 MB of RAM The only known limitation is the RAM disk size compared to the PDF size In order to speed up the printing process it is strongly recommended that the user insure that the PDF file size is no larger than the amount of printer memory installed All True Type fonts are downloaded if embedded or generated as bitmaps if not in some cases there may be a mismatch between the screen font and the printed font If this occurs please send the file to Customer support so that it can be resolved Text e mails composed with UUEncode are not supported PDF files which contains images as Shading Type 1 are not yet supported PDF Direct Installation and User guide 47 What s new in PDF Direct 1 4 2 Version History Vers
