What do I do about problems printing graphics to PostScript printers?
 When printing notebooks to a PostScript printer, Mathematica sends the PostScript commands for graphics directly to the printer. While this results in faster printing, it may cause problems when using True Type fonts or printing a graphic larger than one page. If you do not get good results from your printer, try the following. | 1. | From the menu, select . Be sure to set the Show option values for field to global. |
| 2. | Click the box beside Notebook Options. |
| 3. | Click the box beside Printing Options. |
| 4. | Click another box beside PrintingOptions, which is located under the option PageFooterLines. |
| 5. | Scroll to the option "GraphicsPrintingFormat". Click the box beside the text field, and choose "RenderInFrontEnd" from the pop-up menu. |
| 6. | Close the Option Inspector. |
Now when you print to a PostScript printer, the proper fonts should be used in graphics and large graphics will be clipped correctly. If your printer has an external hard disk for storing fonts, you might want to simply download the Mathematica fonts once. http://support.wolfram.com/mathematica/systems/allplatforms/manualfontdownload.html If you are not using any special typesetting features, you might want to see the FAQ on generating graphics that do not require the fonts. http://support.wolfram.com/mathematica/graphics/textfonts/nomathfonts.html  Download this FAQ as a Mathematica 5.2 Notebook
