The bandhome value is the location of the temporary RIP files. You should set the bandhome path to a fast drive with at least 6 GB free space. If possible, set the bandhome to a drive other than the drives where the operating system, RIP-QueueAn organized list of jobs that are printed on a first-in first-out (FIFO) basis., or the input and work folders reside.

Use blackoverprint if your images contain overprint attributes for the black channel.

The default font is used for font replacements when a font is not found. When using this option, you must specify a valid system font. A system font is a font supplied with RIP-Queue. Check the Font Manager to view which fonts are system fonts.

The bit depth defines the number of bits per pixel. This value may be either 8 or 1.

This value sets the maximum flatness of the PostScript image. The valid range for the maxflat setting is .2 to 100. FlatnessThe vector calculation of the maximum distance of any points of the approximation from the corresponding point on the true curve, measured in output device pixels. defines the number of segments to make a curve. Using lower numbers creates more accurate curves, but take longer to process.

Use the messages option to show the PostScript RIP actions in the RIP window.

This value sets the minimum flatness of the PostScript image. The valid range for the minflat setting is .2 to 100. Flatness defines the number of segments to make a curve. Using lower numbers creates more accurate curves, but take longer to process.

Ncolors sets the default number of colors used during processing. Valid Ncolors values are 1 (used for black and white processing), 3 (used for RGBSystem for describing colors based on a combination of values for Red, Green, and Blue—the additive primaries. RGB is the basic additive color model used for color video display. Mixing various percentages of red, green, and blue light can recreate most of the spectrum; combining 100% of all three creates white light. See CMYK, Additive Color. processing), and 4 (used for CMYKSystem for describing colors based on a combination of values for Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black; the ink colors used in four-color process printing. In theory, 100% of Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow create Black. In practice, the addition of Black ink is necessary to print a true Black. See also RGB. processing).

Use overprint if your images contain overprint attributes for color channels.

The default process resolution is set by this value.

Choose the spot rendering intent for the ColorThe attribute of visual experience that can be described using the dimensions of Hue, Saturation, and Brightness. Matching Table. Available options include 0 for Perceptual, 1 for Absolute, 2 for Relative, and 3 for SaturationTerm used to describe the strength, purity, or vividness of a hue. Saturation indicates how much color is present. When there is no saturation, there is no color; the more saturation, the more color there is of the given hue..

The VMSize value sets the PostScript interpreter's virtual memory size. The recommended VMSize value is 256,000,000 (256MB); however, do not set the value higher than half of your physical available memory.
