PrimoPDF offers five output templates which allow you to create PDF files at an optimized size and quality level, depending on the intended use of the PDF document.

PrimoPDF Creation Profiles

• Screen — Creates a PDF optimized for on-screen viewing. This configuration creates small PDF files and reduces the image resolution to 72dpi, which may reduce print quality.
• eBook — Creates a PDF adapted for eBook publishing. This configuration creates average-sized PDF files and compresses all images, while optimizing the file for downloading and viewing on a variety of screens.
• Print — Creates a PDF which is better adapted for printing on most home and office printers. This configuration creates high-resolution PDF files, but does not embed fonts.
• Prepress — Creates a PDF optimized for printing on commercial-quality printers. This configuration creates large PDF files with high-resolution images and embedded fonts, for results of a quality-level consistent to the system on which the PDF was generated.
• Custom — Enables you to specify custom settings for your PDF output. Refer to the PrimoPDF Custom Creation Profile section of this guide for further details.
