[. . . ] Some files, such as fonts, will need to be moved to specific locations; others can be moved to a directory of your choice. PostScript and TrueType fonts Regular, bold, italic, and bold italic versions of PostScript Type 1 fonts, as well as TrueType fonts are provided in the PS3 folder on the User Software CD. To use these fonts in applications and to properly display them on your monitor, you will need to install them on your computer. For information on installing fonts see the following section. 5 5-19 Installing additional software for Windows users For a complete list of fonts included with the Ci1000 printer, see Appendix A of Drivers and Utilities. ATM (Windows 95 and Windows 3. 1x) Adobe Type Manager (ATM) is included on the User Software CD. This application can be used to transfer Type 1 fonts to the printer's memory or hard disk drive, or to manage fonts on the printer. Manual downloading of fonts not already provided on the printer eliminates the need for automatic downloading of fonts used by a document, which speeds printing. You can also: · Install the PostScript Type 1 fonts that correspond to those installed on your printer · Print using PostScript fonts on nonPostScript printers · Improve the screen display of PostScript fonts When a Typical installation is performed all the files needed to install Adobe ATM for Windows 95 are copied to the Ci1000 directory. Windows 3. x users must manually copy the ATM files on the User Software CD to their hard drive. See the instructions provided with ATM for information on how to use the correct version for your system. NOTE: ATM cannot be used to install TrueType fonts, which are also included in the PS3 folder. These fonts can, however, be installed on Windows 95 and Windows NT 4. 0 using the Control Panel >Fonts>File >Install New Font command. Windows 3. 1 users can install TrueType fonts by double-clicking the Control Panel Fonts icon and selecting the fonts to be added. For additional information on installing TrueType fonts on Windows platforms, see the documentation that came with your system. Color reference pages CMYK and PANTONE color reference pages are provided on the User Software CD in the form of downloadable PostScript files. 5 5-20 Installing Software for Windows CMYK Color Reference The CMYK Color Reference is a PostScript file (Cmyk. ps), which can be printed using a PostScript downloader utility, such as Fiery WebDownloader. If the file has not already been installed in the Mita Ci1000 directory on your hard disk drive, you can copy it from the Clrfiles directory on the User Software CD to a directory of your choice. Each of the 11 pages displays swatches in graduated combinations of yellow, magenta, and cyan, and smaller patches that include 25%, 50%, and 75% black. You can specify these colors, and colors in between, in any application that allows you to define colors as CMYK percentages--and use the pages to see how they will be printed on your particular printer. For more information about color management using the CMYK Color Reference, see "Choosing colors in PostScript applications" in Drivers and Utilities. PANTONE Coated Color Reference The PANTONE Coated Color Reference is a PostScript file (Pantone. ps), which can be printed using a PostScript downloader utility, such as Fiery WebDownloader. If the file has not already been installed in the Mita Ci1000 directory on your hard disk drive, you can copy it from the Clrfiles directory on the User Software CD to a directory of your choice. The PANTONE color matching system is a standard color system within the graphic arts and prepress industries. It specifies hundreds of spot colors, each identified with a unique number. Each PANTONE color is simulated on the printer by printing an appropriate combination of process (CMYK) colors. The ability to simulate PANTONE colors is a basic form of color management. You can choose PANTONE colors in any application that allows you to define colors as named PANTONE colors--and use the pages to see how they will be printed on your particular printer 5 5-21 Removing the Ci1000 software For more information about color management using the PANTONE Coated Color Reference, see "Choosing colors in PostScript applications" in Drivers and Utilities.
