66-1 Working with illustration applicationsThis chapter provides instructions for using Adobe Illustrator, Macromedia FreeHand,and CorelDRAW for Windows and Mac OS.Before printing from these applications, make sure the appropriate PostScript printerdriver and the Color Server PPD are installed on your computer, as described in theUser Software Installation Guide.Working with illustration applicationsYou can print directly from an illustration application or use it to create and save filesthat will be imported into a page layout document. To print from an illustrationapplication, use the printer driver and print settings recommended in the Color Guide.N OTE : This manual provides instructions for printing composites only.For instructions on printing color separations, see the documentation for yourapplication.As a general rule, use the EPS file format when saving files with an illustrationapplication.Defining colorsAll illustration applications use the CMYK color model. Although you may beallowed to define colors using other color models, these applications generally sendonly CMYK data to the Color Server. (The one exception is Illustrator 9.x, whichcan send either CMYK or RGB data to the Color Server.) For predictable resultswith CMYK colors, use the CMYK Color Reference pages when defining colors(see “Choosing colors in PostScript applications” on page 2-6).Chapter 6:IllustrationApplications
