1. Checking for Print Problems
Before
you print your document, it’s important to check the Summary category
in the Print dialog box. The summary information is good to have if
you’re having problems printing your job at a commercial printer. You
can save the information and send it to the printer to help diagnose the
problem. The important area is the Warnings box, which displays warning
about printing problems with your document. Check to make sure your
print job is clear of all warnings before you send it to a printer.
