• long side - prints duplex where you flip the pages along the longer side of the paper. This is is useful for standard 3 hole binding.
• short side - prints duplex where you flip the pages along the shorter side of the paper. This choice is useful when you are binding a group of pages from the short side.
• printer default - uses the long or short side setting as selected in the printer driver. This setting applies only to automatic duplex printers.

Reverse Printing
This option is useful for inkjet or other printers that require manual reverse collation of pages when printing is complete. Note that this option may be required for proper operation of double-sided printing if you have such a printer. If your printer delivers pages in the reverse order, you should check this option before attempting double-sided printing. Checking this option would, for example, print the pages of a 5 page document in the following order: 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

Collate multiple copies - turns collation on or off. Coming soon: If your printer supports hardware collation, FinePrint will optimize its output to take advantage of this capability.

Printer duplex capabilities

• Printer has automatic duplex  
  Some printers have special hardware that supports double-sided printing. Select this option if your printer has duplex hardware. If your printer is not capable of automatic duplex printing, select Manual duplex. Automatic duplex printers sometimes do not orient the back sides according to standard conventions and there are two check boxes (portrait/landscape produces vertical flipping) available here to correct this. It is recommended that the wizard be used to help select the correct settings.
  
• Printer requires manual Duplex 
  Use this choice if your printer does not have special duplex hardware. If you do not use the Wizard, you will need to determine if your printer requires you rotate or flip the paper. Check the appropriate options for your printer.

Note: In the Manual Duplex mode, after FinePrint is done printing all of the front sides of the sheets, a dialog box will appear asking you to re-insert the pages into the printer for printing on the backside (side that has not yet been printed) of the sheets. Press OK on the dialog box when the sheets have been re-inserted into the printer.

Orientation
FinePrint will automatically calculate the most efficient page layout in most cases. In cases where you need to override how FinePrint orients the sheet, use these options.

• Portrait - formats all layouts using portrait orientation
• Landscape - formats all layouts using landscape orientation
• Smart - automatically selects portrait or landscape based on the current layout (default)

Printer Corrections
While FinePrint works correctly on most printers, some printers require a correction . For this reason, FinePrint provides corrective measures. They are:

Portrait/landscape produces vertical flipping
Some printers, notably the HP Laserjet 4000, require an adjustment in order to have the back sides of the sheets print in the proper orientation. If you are printing booklets and the back sides are reversed, check this box. This option applies only to printers that have automatic duplex.

PDF font correction
Check this box if your fonts are not printed correctly from Adobe Acrobat.

Colored Text Processing
This combo box has options to control how colored text is processed.

• Draw Normally - colored text will print correctly with this option in most cases.
• Color correction - select if colored text is missing or if watermarks do not print or are printed in black.
• Convert to black - convert all colored text be drawn as black.

Rotated Pages
This combo box has options to control how pages are rotated in the case where a document or group of documents has pages in both landscape and portrait orientations.

• Rotate entire page
  Use this option if your computer has a lot of memory and can rotate large graphics in a single operation.
  
• Rotate in pieces
  This is the default option and it uses memory most efficiently by rotating smaller sections of a page.
  
• Do not rotate
  Select this option if you do not want pages rotated. This will "letterbox" the page within the available area of the standard page rectangle.

Extra Margins

Set this option if you are missing any borders or are experiencing truncation of content when printing. This adjustment increases the margin from the sheet by the specified number of pixels. Print a Test Page to determine the correct number of pixels.

Test Page
FinePrint will print a test page showing how many pixels to apply to the margin correction.

Custom settings
This button displays the properties dialog associated with the currently selected printer. From here, you can create custom settings for your printer to be used when using FinePrint.

Restore default settings
This button will restore the default settings for your printer when used with FinePrint.
This dialog allows changing the settings for each of the available printers. Since printers have different methods of paper handling, this dialog allows you to have different settings for each. This dialog box is available by clicking the Options button on the FinePrint preview window.
