PUBLISHER:
Unfortunately, Publisher is quite unreliable for professional printing, so we do not support it except under exceptional circumstances.
 If you have the full version of Adobe Acrobat PDF please follow the steps below.


Under File, Print, select Adobe PDF writer
Under Properties select Press Quality and Save your PDF.

If you do not have a full version of Acrobat, you may go to http://tinyurl.com/primo-pdf-maker
to download and install a free pdf print driver. After installing the driver, go to the file/print and choose PrimoPDF as the printer, then in  the print dialogue choose Properties and under the Paper/Quality tab, choose Advanced, and then choose either Print Quality or Prepress to achieve the best results. This is third party software and PRO Printers cannot guarantee the program though we have numerous clients using it successfully.
