If you are using an earlier version of Neevia DocuPrinter on your system, it is recommended that you uninstall it before installing Neevia docuPrinter TSE v5.5.
To install Neevia docuPrinter TSE:
download and save the http://neevia.com/prods/dptse.exe file to your hard disk. After downloading the file, double-click on it and follow the instructions. The installation procedure automatically detects your operating system, copies the needed files into your system directory and installs Neevia docuPrinter TSE.
NOTE: On Windows NT, Windows 2000 and Windows 2003, you must be logged in as an Administrator to install docuPrinter TSE.
Unattended installation:
To perform an unattended (silent) installation launch docuPrinter TSE installer with /sp- /verysilent /norestart command line switches. Here is the full list of supported switches:
/SP-
Disables the "This will install... Do you wish to continue?" prompt at the beginning of Setup.
/SILENT, /VERYSILENT
Instructs Setup to be silent or very silent. When Setup is silent the wizard and the background window are not displayed but the installation progress window is. When Setup is very silent the installation progress window is not displayed. Everything else is normal so for example error messages during installation are displayed and the startup prompt is (if you haven't disabled it with '/SP-' command line option explained above). If a restart is necessary and the '/NORESTART' command is not used (see below) and Setup is silent, it will display a “Reboot now?” dialog. If it's very silent it will reboot without asking.
/NOCANCEL
Prevents the user
from canceling during the installation process, by
disabling the Cancel button and ignoring clicks on the close button. Useful
along with /SILENT.
/NORESTART
Instructs Setup not to reboot even if it's necessary.
/DIR="x:\dirname"
Overrides the default directory name displayed on the Select Destination Directory wizard page. A fully qualified pathname must be specified.
/GROUP="folder name"
Overrides the
default folder name displayed on the Select Start Menu Folder
wizard page.
/NOMACRO
Prevents docuPrinter from installing the Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Publisher macros.
/NOWORD
Disables the Microsoft Word docuPrinter macros installation. (Cannot be used with /NOMACRO switch)
/NOEXCEL
Disables the Microsoft Excel docuPrinter macros installation. (Cannot be used with /NOMACRO switch)
/NOPOWERPOINT
Disables the Microsoft PowerPoint docuPrinter macros installation. (Cannot be used with /NOMACRO switch)
/NOPUBLISHER

In that window select PDF as output format then press the "Configure Output" button to edit the output settings – the following screen will be displayed:
Optimize for
For your convenience there are several sets of predefined settings for creating PDF files. These settings are designed to balance file size with quality, depending on how the PDF file is to be used:
• Default - is intended to be useful across a wide variety of uses, possibly at the expense of a larger output file. All color and grayscale images are downsampled at 72 dpi, monochrome images at 300 dpi; subsets of all fonts used in the file are embedded; and all information is compressed. PDF files created using this setting are compatible with Acrobat 4.0 (and later).
• Screen - is for PDF files that will be displayed on the World Wide Web or an intranet, or that will be distributed through an e-mail system for on-screen viewing. This set of options uses compression, downsampling, and a relatively low resolution; converts all colors to RGB; maintains compatibility with Acrobat 3.0; to create a PDF file that is as small as possible.
• Printer - is for PDF files that are intended for desktop printers, digital copiers, publishing on a CD-ROM, or to send to a client as a publishing proof. In this set of options, file size is still important, but it is not the only objective. This set of options uses compression and downsampling to keep the file size down, tags everything for color management, and prints to a medium resolution to create a reasonably accurate rendition of the original document.
• Prepress - is for PDF files that will be printed as high-quality final output to an imagesetter or platesetter, for example. In this case, file size is not a consideration. The objective is to maintain all the information in a PDF file that a commercial printer or service bureau will need to print the document correctly. This set of options downsamples color and grayscale images at 300 dpi, monochrome images at 1200 dpi, embeds subsets of all fonts used in the file, prints to a higher resolution, and uses other settings to preserve the maximum amount of information about the original document.
PDF Settings
To edit the PDF settings click the "Edit PDF settings" button – you should see this screen
There are 5 tabs on the top of the screen:
General - Specify compatibility level, document resolution, optimization and other general information;
Compression - choose appropriate compression options to reduce the size of the output PDF document;
Fonts - select the font embedding options;
Color - select the color profiles for the output PDF file;
PDF Open Options - select the color profiles for the output PDF file.
General Tab
Compatibility
Select the PDF document compatibility level (a.k.a. PDF version).
Auto-Rotate Pages
Auto-Rotate Pages automatically rotates pages based on the orientation of the text. For example, some pages (such as those containing tables) in a document may require the document to be turned sideways to be read. Choose "None" to disable the Auto-Rotate Pages option. Choose "All" to rotate all pages in the document based on the orientation of the majority of text. Choose "PageByPage" to rotate each page based on the direction of the text on that page.
Resolution
Here you can define the output document resolution. Usually, a higher resolution setting will result in larger but higher quality PDF, while a lower setting will result in smaller but lower quality PDF. You can enter a value from 72 to 2400.
Important: Low resolution is ideal for screen viewing. However, if high-quality paper print or the accurate control of character position is required, you should choose resolution above (include) 600dpi.
Encode binary streams to ASCII85
Enabling this option will force docuPrinter to encode binary strings in the PDF file with ASCII85 algorithm.
Compression Tab
Neevia docuPrinter TSE allows you to compress images (bitmaps), text, and graphics (line art). ReSampling feature provides a further reduction to very large or high-resolution images.
Since the effectiveness of compression is highly data dependent for the best result, you might want to try different compression setting for different kinds of data sources.
Compression/Image Quality
Set the compression to be applied to color, grayscale, and monochrome images. For color and grayscale images, also set the image quality. For color or grayscale images, choose ZIP to apply the compression that works well on images with large areas of single colors or repeating patterns, such as screen shots, simple images created with paint programs, and black-and-white images that contain repeating patterns. Choose JPEG, quality minimum to maximum, to apply the compression that is suitable for grayscale or color images, such as continuous-tone photographs that contain more detail than can be reproduced on-screen or in print. Choose Automatic to determine automatically the best quality for color and grayscale images.
NOTE: For monochrome images, choose CCITT or ZIP compression.
Make sure that monochrome images are scanned as monochrome and not as grayscale. Scanned text is sometimes saved as grayscale images by default. Grayscale text compressed with the JPEG compression method is “muddy” at best and may be unreadable.
ReSample
To resample color, grayscale, or monochrome images, docuPrinter combines pixels in a sample area to make one larger pixel. You provide the resolution of your output device in dots per inch (dpi) and select the resample algorithm:
Average Downsample – this algorithm averages the pixels in a sample area and replaces the entire area with the average pixel color at the specified resolution.
Subsample – this algorithm chooses a pixel in the center of the sample area and replaces the entire area with that pixel at the specified resolution. Subsample significantly reduces the conversion time compared with downsampling but results in images that are less smooth and continuous.
Bicubic Downsample – this algorithm uses a weighted average to determine pixel color and usually yields better results than the simple averaging method of downsampling. Bicubic is the slowest but most precise method, resulting in the smoothest tonal gradations.
NOTE: Resampling monochrome images can have unexpected viewing results, such as no image display. If this happens, turn off resampling and convert the file again. This problem is most likely to occur with subsample and least likely with bicubic downsample.
Max inline image size
Specifies the maximum size of an inline image in bytes. For images larger than this size, docuPrinter will create a XObject instead of embedding the image into the context stream. The default value is 4000. Note that redundant inline images must be embedded each time they occur in the document, while multiple references can be made to a single XObject image. Therefore it may be advantageous to set a small or zero value if the source document is expected to contain multiple identical images, reducing the size of the generated PDF.
