Acrobat XPro, new printing dialog box

In December Adobe XPro said there was an update. We loaded this update and noticed that the print dialog box had changed dramatically. Also the "none" feature is no longer listed under the icons. Just fit, actual size etc. We used to just select our plotter and the preview would switch to 35.99 x 24 but now it stays at 10x8. We print 24x36 and need them to scale. What happened and how do I correct this?

Dear user,
In our latest update 10.1.2, we have revamped our print dialog towards more simpler and comprehensive UI and that's why you are noticing change in the dialog.
In case you are searching for 'None' option, it is now called 'Actual size' in new layout. Also, setting 'Shrink' as your page handing option will automatically scale your document to your page size.
Hope this will solve your problem.
Thanks!

Acrobat Pro XI print dialog box opens in background, Web Browser

Issue: From web browser apps, I select Print > Adobe PDF > then, the Save PDF File As dialog box opens in the background instead of the foreground.
Acrobat Pro XI / Acrobat Pro 11.0.2
IE8 x32 / IE8 x64 / Firefox 20.0.1
Win7 Ent x64 SP1
Dell Latitude with I5 proc and Intel video
Dual screens with extended desktop display via DVI
In Distiller, I check the box for Preferences > Ask for PDF file destination.
I was issued a new corporate laptop a few months back, specs are above. Did not have this issue with Acrobat Pro X on my old Dell Latitude running Win7 Ent x64 SP1. So, I have multiple new moving parts in what could be the root cause.
Any ideas?
Thank you,
Doug

One thing I've learned since OSX 10.2 is that Mac is finicky about printer drivers too.
I had a Lexmark and it would freeze all the time after I switched to Panther. It was a discontinued model so when I moved up to 10.3 there were no new drivers. The old ones installed OK but they would cause it to freeze up and if it did print, it took about ten minutes to get through a page of text.
I got a new printer and one tht had current drivers available for Mac and the problem was solved.
It seems we fight a never-ending battle with hardware and software racing to stay ahead of each other.
Yes I've owned three printers since owning my first Mac an SE 30 I started out with a Apple ImagewriterII (made C-Itoch). I had to switch when I bought a 7100/66 which used the PowerPC processor instead of the 68030 processors. Then I had a HP DJ 650cse which used a Black Cartridge only. No color. I had to change again When I bought my G4-500. I am still using it today. Its the best printer I've had so far. I fear when I buy a new Intel Mac, and comes with X.6 (Snow Leopard) I will have to swap again. I've seen the new HP DeskJets and the won't last as long this one. They look like cheap toys and (gulp!) they use heads built like in epson not the Cartridges. The Cartridges were more expensive. But each time you bought one you got a new set of print heads. No longer.

Can't see printer name in the print dialog box as the printer name is too long

This is actually causing siginificant pain as I am using a tablet and moving around a number of floors/buildings needing to be able to print from where I am.
When printing from Acrobat reader, the print dialog box that comes up does not have a horizontal scroll bar and does not fit in the names of the printers in my organisation. We are unable to change the printer name, so it basically means that when using Acrobat, we can't select a printer.
All other windows applications show more characters and also have a horizontal scroll bar in the print dialog box so you can scroll across to see the rest of a long printer name. Why is acrobat not using the standard windows print dialog?
Has anyone come across this? Help!

This is the Acrobat forum, not the Reader forum. In the future you should check there. I am not sure why you can not change the printer name, unless you do not have administrator rights. The name of the printer has nothing to do with where the print copy is sent. It is just for the purpose you mentioned of identifying the printer to print to. If you are not the administrator, ask your IT folks to change the name for you and explain why.

Acrobat 9 Mac Print dialog freezes

I haven't been able to print from Acrobat 9 Pro for Mac for about many months. I can open the Print dialog box and change settings, but as soon as I click the Print button, Acrobat freezes and I have to force quit. (More accurately, the Print dialog box can be dragged around, but even if I switch to a different app, like the Finder, the Print dialog box stays open -- Print button no longer flashing. Nothing prints, and the dialog box cannot close until I force quit.)
Even worse, it happens when I print a PDF from Safari, too! It's been driving me crazy, and I've tried a ton of different troubleshooting techniques.
Currently using 9.2.0 on Mac OS 10.5.8. Not sure when the problem started, but I've done a number of Acrobat and OS updates since then, always hoping that one will fix it. No luck.
I thought it was the free version of Font ExplorerX from linotype that I've been using far, far too long. When I quit that, it seemed to work once... but now even without that running it's crashing. So perhaps it was a fluke.
Also, sometimes it works if I hit the Print button really quickly after the dialog box opens. That's even weirder.
Yes, I have removed the printer driver and reinstalled.
Frustrated. (I usually just open the pdf in Preview and print, or place it in InDesign and print. But sometimes, like today when I have to print a contract with digital signatures, only Acrobat will do.)
Sigh,
David Blatner

Apps crash when selecting HP Business Inkjet 2600 in print dialog box

Hope someone can help. With an open PDF document I select the print dialog box. If I select the HP Business Inkjet 2600 the application crashes (tried Preview and Adobe Acrobat). I can select other printers fine.
What I have tried so far:
Logged into root account and the issue does not occur, indicating a permissions issue.
I have tried repairing permissions using disk utility with no success.
I have tried creating a new admin account and the same fault occurs in that account.
I have reset the printing system and re-added the printer - no success.
The system is a PowerMac G5 2GHz, 768 MB RAM, 10.4.8
Please help : )
PowerMac G5 2GHz, 768 MB RAM Mac OS X (10.4.8) HP Business Inkjet 2600

Don't worry, solved it. Tested the printer using my powerbook G4 running 10.4.8. It worked fine so I copied the HP folder from /Library/Printers from the PB to the PM G5, repaired permissions using disk utility, rebooted and the G5 can now print fine to the HP.

Print dialog box truncates device names

Is Firefox using an older .DLL or printing routing when one does a "File > Print"? The reason I ask is that our networked printers have long UNC path names. When you click Print the dialog box truncates the names and you don't know where you're printing too.
Other applications seem to use a newer .DLL/printing routing where when you Print you can horizontally scroll and see the full names of the printers.
Broken applications include Acrobat v9.x products; Firefox products.
Applications that work are: IE; Chrome; notepad; Adobe Reader 10, etc.
Is there a way to force firefox to use the newer/scrollable version of the Print Dialog Box?
thanks...

The print dialog hasn't changed in many years, if ever. IIRC, it was the same back in Phoenix 0.3 (fall of 2002), the first version of Firefox I used. AFAIK, it's from the Netscape days (like over 14 years ago)

Turn off print dialog box

I want to turn off the print dialog box in Adobe Reader. I want a similar function "quick print" that Word has in order to use Adobe Reader more efficently with other software. Is this possible?

You will have to write some custom JavaScript and with versions 7 or newer or Acrobat/Reader, you will need to install a special script in a special application folder due to revised security restrictions. You will also need to write a script file to add a menu item or tool bar button.
The basic Acrobat JS code is:
// Print a file silently
this.print({bUI: false, bSilent: true, bShrinkToFit: true});

How to suppress print dialog box from popping up under a condition

Greetings...
There may be a better way to accomplish what I'm trying to do, so I'm open to outside-the-box suggestions.
I have a pretty simple page which lists a set of statuses and descriptions of each. The user can edit these status flags and their descriptions on the page as well. When I view the page in "printer friendly" mode, I see a nice simple report of what the statuses are and their descriptions. Everything works great so far.
In our work request system built in ApEx, there's a page where someone can view the details of a work request, including the current status. When someone clicks on the help of that item, what I'd love to do is simple show the "printer friendly" version the status page mentioned above in a pop up window. My problem is that the print dialog box automatically shows up when a page is displayed in "printer friendly" mode and I do not want this to happen in this case.
I see the javascript code in the Printer Friendly page template which causes the print dialog box to show up automatically, but I don't want to remove it in the template just for this one case. This would suppress the print dialog box on all "printer friendly" page views and the users are used to it showing up when they ask to print the page.
I guess I could create a custom request to pass to the master status page which would pretty much do everything that the "printer friendly" mode is doing, but that seems like a lot of work when I'm so close to using something that is built in.
Am I not seeing some simple other way of doing it or perhaps asking too much? Any suggestions?
Shane.

Hi,
I think you have to call the FM GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS and pass NO_DIALOG = 'X'.
Something like:
CALL FUNCTION 'GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS'
    EXPORTING
      no_dialog      = 'X'
    IMPORTING
      out_parameters = ls_params
      valid          = lv_valid
    EXCEPTIONS
      OTHERS         = 1.
NEW-PAGE PRINT ON PARAMETERS ls_params NO DIALOG.
* Display Table
lr_table->display( ).
add: Spool numbers can be found in TSP01 or in system field SY-SPONO available in the submitting program...
Hope it helps,
Kr,
m.

Current View option in the Print dialog box

I have a PDF file, approximately 55 pages that is comrpised of 50+ .jpg images that were combined into a single PDF file. The images are various size screenshots from Facebook.
I need to be able to print the entire file at 75% magnification in order for every page to be readable. Only way in Adobe’s print dialog box that I can find to do so is select one page at a time, select “Current View” and then print.
When "All" is selected under Print Range in the Print Dialog box, the pages print at different magnifications, most below 10% and unreadable.
Is there a way to get the entire document to print in the “Current View” setting or at a specified magnification?
I’m using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

It means something in user profile should be configure to run excel print operation. Could you please somebody help what I need to configure in user profile that makes print operation success?

How to suppress the Print Dialog Box?

Running an (ASP.NET /Crystal Reports 2008) application and using CrystalReportViewer control. Is there way to suppress the print dialog box when I click the print icon on the report tool bar?
Edited by: juRamz on Aug 26, 2009 2:54 PM

Hello,
Sort of, CR needs the info. Only option is to create your own print button that has all the info filled in. It's a Windows Framework Common dialog box that CR calls so it's the OS that is prompting for the info.
Using ReportClientDoc here's a possible solution, note that this too has a dialog box to select the printer:
private void button1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e) // Print To Printer button
    System.Drawing.Printing.PrintDocument pDoc = new System.Drawing.Printing.PrintDocument();
    PrintReportOptions rasPROpts = new CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.Controllers.PrintReportOptionsClass();
    CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ReportDefModel.PrintOptions newOpts = new PrintOptionsClass();
    //CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.PrintOptions newOpts = new PrintOptionsClass();
    pDoc.PrinterSettings.PrinterName = cboCurrentPrinters.Text;
    rasPROpts.PrinterName = cboCurrentPrinters.Text;
    rasPROpts.PaperSize = (CrPaperSizeEnum)
        pDoc.PrinterSettings.PaperSizes[cboCurrentPaperSizes.SelectedIndex].Kind;
    rasPROpts.PaperSource = (CrPaperSourceEnum)
        pDoc.PrinterSettings.PaperSources[cboDefaultPaperTrays.SelectedIndex].Kind;
    // new API added to allow changing printing options
    newOpts = new CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ReportDefModel.PrintOptions();
    newOpts.DissociatePageSizeAndPrinterPaperSize = true;
    rptClientDoc.PrintOutputController.ModifyPageMargins(0, 0, 0, 0);
    rptClientDoc.PrintOutputController.PrintReport(rasPROpts);
    MessageBox.Show("Printing report.", "RAS", MessageBoxButtons.OK,MessageBoxIcon.Information );
Thank you

Printer dialog box does not appear in Photoshop CS.5

I use Photoshop CS.5.1 with a Macbook 2013 using version 10.9.5. The printer works perfectly with all other applications but in Photoshop no printer dialog box comes up and the print job does not appear in the printers queue. Anyone the same issues?

First, try nuking (deleting them and letting the application create new ones) your Photoshop preferences:
To re-create the preferences files for Photoshop, start the application while holding down Ctrl+Alt+Shift (Windows) or Command+Option+Shift (Mac OS). Then, click Yes to the message, "Delete the Adobe Photoshop Settings file?"
Note: If this process doesn't work for you while you're using a wireless (Bluetooth) keyboard, attach a wired keyboard and retry.
Important: If you re-create the preferences by deleting the Adobe Photoshop CS6 Settings file, make sure that you only delete that file. If you delete the entire settings folder, you also delete any unsaved actions or presets.
Reinstalling Photoshop does not remove the preferences file. Before reinstalling Photoshop, re-create your preferences.
NEW Video! Julieanne Kost created a video that takes you through two ways of resetting your Photoshop preferences. The manual preference file removal method is between 0:00 - 5:05. The keyboard shortcut method is between 5:05 - 8:18. The video is located here.
Mac OS
Important: Apple made the user library folder hidden by default with the release of Mac OS X 10.7. If you require access to files in the hidden library folder to perform Adobe-related troubleshooting, see How to access hidden user library files.

Photoshop cc print dialog box image dark

I'm on a MacBook Pro running Mt. Lion with PS CC, an Eizo monitor, printing with an Epson 3880, calibrated and profiled with a ColorMunki. When I preview an image to print, the image is darker in preview, and the color is much different than the actual image. When I print with the proper paper profile, (photoshop manages color and the space is Adobe 1998) it prints looking like the preview image rather tha the one on the monitor. I also run Snow Leopard on a partition with CS6, and the above does not happen, everything works fine. A photog friend of mine with a similar setup is experiencing the same problem since upgrading to Mt. Loin. Another graphic designer friend is running Mavericks and is has the same problem. I have another photog friend in Nashville who is having THE SAME PROBLEM!! Does anyone know what the heck is going on? I'm the only one who kept Snow Leopard so I can still print, which I do on almost a daily basis. What broke what? Is it a bug with PS CC, or did something in MT. Lion break? This is very frustrating for all of us and I find it totally unacceptable.
If anyone has a clue and can help, we would be eternally greatfull.
Thanks,
Greg Nikas

Thanks for the tip on inserting photos. I'm new here, won't post a link in the future.
I'll try to simplify my issue;
1. In CS6 in Snow Leopard, the original/source image looks just like the image in the print dialog box and prints beautifuly. See images below.
Original image.
Print dialog box image.
2. In PS CC and CS6 in Mt. Lion, the original/source image is redder and more saturated than the image in the print dialog box, but the print looks like the the image in the print dialog box. The image in the print dialog box looks like the original/source image in CS6 in Snow Leopard! See images below.
Original image.
Print dialog box image.
3. The issue seems to be with how the original/source image in PS CC and CS6 renders in Mt. Lion. As I said in my intial post, I have three friends who are having the same problem and none of us can figure it out, and I'm the only one who kept Snow Leopard.
4. I'm on a MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard and Mt. Lion on a partitioned disk.
5. I have an Eizo CG222W monitor, which is calibrated with an x-rite ColorMunki. Each OS has it's own calibration profile.
6. I print on an Epson 3880 using the latest driver, and all papers have thier own profile and look the same when printed from either OS.
7. All settings in PS CC, CS6 and Bridge are identical in both OS's.
I hope this is stated more clearly.
Greg
