Print Engine Choices on the Server
You have the option to set the effective print engine for your Arbortext Publishing Engine environment. Which print engine is used depends on the content of the document, its stylesheet settings, the output type, the final output format, and how the stylesheet may have been extended with source edits. Refer to the following documentation to learn about using print engines:
The following default print engine settings apply to Arbortext Styler stylesheets:
• Existing stylesheets, when updated to this release: PTC ALD, FOSI or XSL-FO as set
If a stylesheet has a value of Default, it will be set to use the PTC ALD print engine when it is updated to this release.
• New stylesheets: PTC ALD
• Distributed stylesheets: PTC ALD
You can set the print engine in the
Arbortext Styler stylesheet. You can also control the print engine selection on the
Arbortext PE server using the
set printengineoverride ACL option. Refer to the
Arbortext Command Language Reference and
Logic for Print/Preview Engine Selection for information.

The FOSI and XSL-FO print engines are on sustained support and do not receive enhancements or maintenance fixes. PTC ALD is the recommended engine for print/PDF output.
