Conversion
Sometimes you need to translate a file to be able to use it with an application it was not created from. AutoVue provides several conversion file formats for you.
Conversion Options
Depending on the conversion type being performed, the available options in the Convert dialog will vary. These options are:
With AutoVue it is possible to convert Office, 2D and EDA formats to PDF. When converted from Markup Mode, markups are "burned" onto the PDF. When you open the PDF, you will see the base file along with all markups.
X and Y
Three factors affect the resolution of an image: the type of image you are scanning, the output device and the acceptable file size. High-resolution scans often require large files, causing longer processing and print time. Note that a high-resolution may not produce a better-quality printed image if your output device does not recognize the higher resolution information stored in the file. To keep file sizes manageable, select the lowest resolution that provides acceptable quality on your output device.
With some file types, the Size option appears giving you a choice between millimeters and inches. Page sizes can be selected from the Size drop-down list or you can customize page sizes by configuring the Initialization file. For more information, see System Administration Guide.
