  • Can not print PDF file at all with Windows Vista

    I have Acrobat Reader 9.3.2.  I am working off of Windows Vista on my laptop to a network wireless printer (Brother MFC 9440).  I am unable to print pdf files.  About a week ago, we had problems with our printer printing anything.  I had to uninstall it and reinstalled it and it now works fine except the pdf files. I have had no problems printing any other files on any other programs but this one.  I am unsure what specific "updates" I ran while trying to figure out printers issue.  When in Reader, everything seems normal.  When I hit print, the printer box pops up as normal and then I hit ok, my printer icon at bottom pops up for about 5 secs and nothing happens.  I know that I am connected to printer due to all other programs can print.  I do not have access to another printer to see if pdf will print on another printer, but do know that the other two computers used in this office (mac laptop and mac desktop) both are able to print pdf files to this printer without a problem.  I have gone thru all the other help steps to try to resolve the situation:  it still will not print when I hit "print as image", made sure that my printer is marked as network and is default printer, made sure to check that I have all upgrades, etc.  I am not getting any error message, so am unsure what is wrong.  It just will not print.  Is there anyone that could give me some suggestions that I have not tried?  I would REALLY appreciate it! Thanks!

  • Can not print PDF

    Can not print PDF from any application (acrobat 5.0)
    "Distiller failed to start up due to an internal error."
    It has been years since I have used my old Mac OS 9.2

    You can use the OS 9 app PrintToPDF http://www.jwwalker.com/pages/pdf.html to create PDF files from other apps files.

  • I can't print PDF docs since Reader XI update

    Help!!!!!!!  I can't print PDF documents since updating to Reader XI.  Had no problems before this update.  I have read other users posting and tried one "fix" that was suggested suggesting user try to print docs as "image," but that choice was not active to select.  I can't print even older PDFs that are on file in my computer.  Please advise - this is interfering with my business.  Thanks.  I get an error message indicating "no pages selected to print" even though it defaulted to Print All.  I selected by one page, pages 1-5, etc. with no success.  Windows 7 system.

    Pat, that did not fix the problem.  I still get the messages that the document cannot be printed and that no pages are selected; the print dialogue box shows that “all” pages are selected.  I get the message even if I manually select “pages 1-7” etc.  I tried deleting Adobe and reinstalling it but I get a 1311 message that seteup.exe cannot be located.  I tried downloading just the Adobe Reader printer drivers from your site and get a message saying that the download was not successful.  Please help.

  • Can't print .pdf doc

    HP TouchSmart 600 computer, Windows 7, Printer is HP OfficeJet 4500 Wireless.
    From an email with a .pdf document, it only gives unreadable copy.
    When I check on download, I get a window from MS Word, then a window that says "File conversion document.pdf.
    In the preview window there is unreadable copy and I can not print. How do I solve this problem?

    Thanks for the prompt reply.
    To open in Adobe Reader is not an offered option.
    The document comes in an email as an attachment. When you try to download the attachment, you get a MS Word window with a window on top. It reads: File Conversion - Document.PDF. Select the encoding that makes the document readable. The preview pane shows unreadable copy: letters, numbers, symbols.
    There is no other option to open it.

  • Can not open PDF docs in Mavericks

    Can't open mail PDF docs when transfered to DT. Removed Adobe plugins and restarted Safari...no change. I can open then in 10.6 Is this a Reader or an Apple issue?

    Thank you Linc Davis and Joe Bailey. The three files in question that I was not able to open on the DT were empty (0 byte). I re-downloaded them, save them on the DT and they opened. I really don't know what took place here, maybe some preferences were previously changed in the reader, but I don't really remember and I am not too concerned at this point. The main thing they work now... so thanks for the help.

  • Can't print pdf docs. Keep getting failed to connect to dde server. How do I fix?

    I have Adobe Reader X and I can not open files, or print them. I keep receiving a fatal error-DDE server not found. I have tried reloading Adobe, rebooted, and nothing seems to work. I have no trouble accessing my browser, can print nonadoble files. Everything else is running fine. What can I do?

    Hello,
    In order to change the default reader for PDF files (to not open PDF files with Firefox's internal PDF reader), follow these steps:
    #Go to ''Tools'' > ''Options'' (or ''Firefox'' > ''Options'').
    #In the Options window, select the ''Applications'' tab.
    #In the ''Search'' field, type ''PDF''. You should find ''Portable Document Format (PDF)''.
    #On the right handside you should find an ''Action'' column. Use that to select your favorite PDF reader. In order to view PDF files in Firefox, choose ''Preview in Firefox''.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • Can not print PDF created on Mac with Acrobat (Win and OS X)

    I created a PDF-File from "Pages", using the integrated "Print to PDF function" (OS X10.4.8)
    This file can be opened and viewed with Adobe Acrobat on the same Mac and also on another Win-XP-Machine.
    BUT: on both Machines (Mac and Win) it's not possible to print it. Only the message (translated in english) "The file can not be printed".
    I also tried Print to PDF-X and other Win-Machines, but this does not helped.
    Any Idea?

    Hi there,
    It sounds like there has been security added to this document. In Acrobat you can view the Security setting for the document by going to File > Properties (or Cmd D) and see if printing is allowed.
    If it is allowed, then it might be worth checking the cups error log to see if it explains why the document cannot be printed. You will find the log in Applications > Console. Click on the Logs icon and expand the entry /var/log. Then expand cups and click on error_log. This will show the job you have attempted to print and any error as to why it cannot.

  • I can not print pdf files since I updated to reader 11.0.10 I am so stuck need to do this urgently

  • Can't print PDF docs when never an issue before...

    Before I updated the Ver. 10  I had installed on my computer, I never had any problems printing PDF documents.  Now, I hit the "Print" button and get nothing.  No printed document, no "Error" pop-up, NOTHING!  I have an HP LaserJet 4050 connected to USB.  All are good.  I have troubleshooted using Adobe's website, and uninstalled and re-installed Reader Ver. 11 on my computer.  I was able to hit the "Print" button on the User Agreement and it printed fine.  I can print Word documents with no problem, and even internet sites.  Bring up any other PDF document that I used to be able to successfully print, and I STILL get nothing.  Any suggestions??

    Pat, that did not fix the problem.  I still get the messages that the document cannot be printed and that no pages are selected; the print dialogue box shows that “all” pages are selected.  I get the message even if I manually select “pages 1-7” etc.  I tried deleting Adobe and reinstalling it but I get a 1311 message that seteup.exe cannot be located.  I tried downloading just the Adobe Reader printer drivers from your site and get a message saying that the download was not successful.  Please help.

  • Can not print .pdf files to HP Deskjet 3050 with Adobe 8.2

    I tried HP support and did the suggested actions with no success.  Adobe 8.2 .pdf files will not print on my HP Deskjet 3050.  OS is Vista on an HP Pavillion dv6000.  Will not print as image either in advanced options.
    No error messages and it appears that the document should print, but when I hit "print", the dialogue box disappears and nothing happens.

    macs don't come with acrobat reader by default

  • I can not search pdf doc for word or terms in doc, comes back as not found although I know it exists

    I have a Mac which prior to upgrading to snow leopard I could search a pdf document for words or terms.  Since the upgrade I can not successfully do this search.  Although I know the term or word exists in the document the search comes up with Not found.  Help!

    What you're seeing is ASCII unicode. The OCR of the text in the body of the PDF was either improperly performed or not at all... or the data has been corrupted.
    Have you tried opening it with Preview?

  • P1102w can not print PDF file

    Hi, 
    I am trying to print a 11.3MB of PDF file with pictures in it. After printing 4 pages, printer starts to wait green light blinking, and the 5th page comes without half the content, orange light blinking. (I bought two of this model, one for home, one for the office and same for both, airprint or cable, the same...)
    The home is connected to wi-fi, the base station is close, a few meters away. It has fixed IP. It seems the printer doesn't have enough hardware sources. Office version is connected via USB.
    It seems this model lack the adequate hardware (RAM, CPU, etc.) to print a PDF document properly. What good is a printer if it cannot print a simple PDF file with some pictures in it?  I need a solution as soon as possible.
    Thank you in advance.

    Hi @bastun,
    I see that you are having issues printing PDF documents. I would be happy to help you.
    Check the driver name that is installed for the printer. Make sure it shows just the printer's name.
    Click the Apple menu and then click System Preferences. Click Printers & Scanners, highlight the printer name on the left side and on the right side of the screen it should show the printer's name. (Laserjet P1102w)
    If the full printer name isn't listed correctly, delete it and add the printer name back in from the list. Click the - sign to delete the driver and then click the + sign to add the driver, might have to click the drop down to select the printer's name to add it in.
    Try printing the PDF again.
    If you are still having issues, try printing the PDF as "Print as Image". Print PDF as an image.
    Try printing a couple of pages from the printer's manual, to see if to see if you have the same results.
    LASERJET PROFESSIONAL P1100 Printer series.
    Run the updates for Adobe. Product updates.
    Are you having this issue with both printers, one using the USB connection and the other one using Wireless?
