Advanced parameters
In the Advanced Parameters area, different options are available depending on the print format you select in the Production and Deployment section.

Legacy PDF VPS PS |
Bleed |
The space beyond the document size you define. By default, the Use Document Bleed Settings checkbox is selected to indicate that the bleed settings used in the document design in Adobe InDesign will be applied for the print output. Alternatively, you can deselect this checkbox and set up different bleed settings by entering inset values in the Top, Bottom, Left and Right fields. If the document has facing pages, bleed settings can be entered in the Top, Bottom, Inside and Outside fields. The inset value is measured from the edge of the document size. Once the production bleed settings have been set, they can be used for future jobs instead of the default option that consists in using the Document bleed settings. |
VPS VIPP PPML PS
|
Complete Fonts |
Select to embed a complete font definition in the print output file. When this checkbox is not selected, the print output file contains only references to the used fonts. Note that CID fonts are an exception: these fonts are not referenced but are embedded as a subset. This option controls the embedding of all fonts except for Chinese, Japanese and Korean (CJK) fonts. If the document uses CJK fonts, they are always embedded as subsets, regardless of this setting. |
VPS VIPP PPML |
Assets Resources |
Select to embed assets and / or resources in the print output file. When these checkboxes are not selected, the print output file includes references to external asset /resource files resulting in a smaller file. If your printer’s RIP (Raster Image Processor) supports external Assets / Resources, you may choose the Do Not Embed options. Note that when Require InDesign Rendering (Better color management) is selected, assets and resources are always automatically embedded and these options are disabled. |
PPML |
Supplied Resources in PPML Stream |
Select to embed PPML Resources in the PPML Print Output file if your RIP supports PPML 2.1, or supports embedding reusable resources in earlier PPML versions. When this checkbox is selected, uProduce generates a single file to be submitted to the RIP (no additional actions are required). Selecting this option also allows you to compress the output file (see Set up compression). When this checkbox is not selected, uProduce produces two print output files:
|
VPS PPML PDF/VT-1 |
Use RIP Global Caching |
Select this checkbox to enable the RIP to make use of cached elements from previous runs. The cached elements are shared between runs of the same document (with possible differences of the target data set). For more information, see Working with the RIP Global Caching. |
VIPP |
Project Name |
Name the project to be generated in the VIPP Print Output format. This name enables the RIP to locate referenced images of the VIPP file that reside in the corresponding project folder. Select Automatic to use an automatically-generated name, or type the name you want to use in the text field. |
VPS VIPP PPML |
Extract reusable content to external files |
Select this checkbox to create external files that hold the document’s reusable elements that are referenced by the VPS, VIPP and PPML and print output file to optimize the document’s processing by certain print controllers. This option is useful for troubleshooting errors in the PPML file. |
VIPP PPML |
Extract unique content to external files |
Select this checkbox to create external files that hold the document’s unique elements that are referenced by the VIPP and PPML print output files to optimize the document’s processing by certain print controllers. This option is useful for troubleshooting errors in the PPML file. |
PDF/VT-1 |
Add metadata
to each record |
Select this checkbox to add recipient content object values (single-value fields) to the print output file. To see the metadata, open the PDF file and check the code. |
PPML |
Tag each record as a document group |
If your RIP supports document groups, determine how to mark a document set (in PPML version 2.1) or a job (in PPML version 1.5) in the PPML file.
|
PPML |
Tag fixed
background as a master page |
This option applies only to Xeikon RIPs. It allows you to mark a background that is used for all records in a way that enables the RIP to process the print output file more efficiently. If the document contains one or more spread visibility rules, no tagging as the master page is performed, even if this option is selected. |
