FPO

Acronym for For Placement Only. An FPO image is a low-resolution version of a high-resolution original image.

You may want to use an FPO as a placeholder for a high-resolution image when working on a layout, since the FPO is smaller in file size than its high-resolution original and therefore easier to place into the layout, manipulate, and share. Synapse EyeMedia enables you to download an FPO version of a high-resolution element that is stored in a library, and place the FPO in a layout. When you send the layout for printing, your printer’s Prinergy software will recognize the low-resolution FPO in the layout and automatically swap it for the high-resolution image before output.
