Induction type alternator and synchronous generator.
An ac generator produces ac, a dc generator produces dc, it all depends on the generator.
Alternator and ac generator is equal
You step down voltage from an AC generator with a transformer.You step down frequency from an AC generator with a motor/generator set, or with an inverter. This is not a common thing to do.
It may not be possible to physically convert AC generator to DC generator. What can be done is that 'Rectifier' of suitable capacity can be connected to the out put of AC generator to get DC supply.
The frequency in Hz is governed by the speed of a generator. The voltage is governed by the winding and types of connections of these windings.

By the operation supply 1.AC generator 2.DC generator In DC generator we are having the following types according to the construction 1.DC Series Generator 2.DC shunt Generator 3.DC Compound Generator
An ac generator produces ac, a dc generator produces dc, it all depends on the generator.
Alternator and ac generator is equal
10 AC
NO, generator always generating AC current,when commutator is used,at that time AC is converted in DC.and due to this generator is called dc generator.
DC generator
You step down voltage from an AC generator with a transformer.You step down frequency from an AC generator with a motor/generator set, or with an inverter. This is not a common thing to do.
an induction generator
It can be, however AC power is generally produced directly by an AC alternator/generator.
