The basic usage
is to enable the preference options in the left panel and dismiss them.
Using the trap zone creation tools you can then click or draw the trap
zones. Using the zone settings floating pallette you can then set the
parameters of the zones. Once the zones are created then the job is ready
to be printed to the rip.
