Select Preferences to make sure you select Minimize to Jobsize, 500 dpi, and consult the supervisor for the Halftone option. For normal engraving on most materials, you’ll use Black and White, but there are some areas where you can alter it. Sometimes the Minimize to Jobsize option does not work. If this happens, enter the dimensions of your design into the top right of the Preferences.
