#132862 - Negative? Responding to: ???'s previous message |
Mirror or negative?
- By mirroring you prepare your image to be printed so you can place toner directly on photo sensitive surface. I assume you mean this (for PCB making). - By making negative you swap black to white regions and viceversa (or in color/grayscale image swap complement color/intensity level). Both operations are available in postscript (pdf for example) printing. You can achieve postscript in two ways: 1) You have printer that is capable of postscript printing. You click on apropriate check box in printer driver -> postscript setting 2) If you have PCL printer only, you can use some software for pdf grabbing (pdf factory, acrobat, distiller...) and then procede as in 1) since all mentioned pdf creators have capability to mirror/negative postscript prior to printing. If you use this option, examine the output since this method can sometimes (not too often) yield unexpected results (such as fine lines instead of solid fill, font mismatches etc). Best luck, CN |
