Cannot print pdf from Excel. Saving as log file

I am trying to print an Excel page to pdf and everytime I get an error.
I am using Adobe Acrobat 9 and Excel 2010

You printed to Adobe PDF from excel.
There was an error which prevented the pdf from being created.
That log file lists the errors and seeing it's content might enable us to determine why the job failed.
Open the log file with Notepad or any text editor (Word)
Copy that text to this forum

  • ***BUG*** Acroread 8.1.2 CANNOT PRINT pdfs from PLOS One...

    Hello, after much hassle, I finally determined that my shiny new 8.1.2 installation (which is sweet!) CANNOT PRINT *ANY* PDFs generated by the online journal PLOS One. The CUPS debug output shows that the foomatic-rip renderer *always* dies with an "Illegal Seek (29)" error. These PDFs also CANNOT be printed to PS files -- same renderer error.
    I have verified this behavior with several PLOS One PDFs. I have also verified that 8.1.2 *can* print other PDFs I have on my system. So the issue is with how 8.1.2 is handling PLOS One PDFs which may be non-conforming. HOWEVER, I distinctly remember being able to print PLOS One PDFs using Acroread 7. So this is a new problem with 8.1.2.
    EDIT2: I dug up the 7.0.1 acroread which was left on my system after installing 8.1.2, and verified that it CAN print the two PDFs linked below. So this proves the issue is a BUG in 8.1.2 and I have filed a bug report with Adobe.
    Representative PDFs can be found at the following links:
    http://www.plosone.org/article/fetchObjectAttachment.action?uri=info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjou rnal.pone.0003446&representation=PDF
    http://www.plosone.org/article/fetchObjectAttachment.action?uri=info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjou rnal.pone.0003309&representation=PDF
    ...or simply goto www.plosone.org and select any article and then select the PDF link.
    The remainder of this post contains the CUPS debug2 log listing for printing a single page from a PLOS One PDF. I have included only the stuff involving the foomatic-rip renderer. Sorry for the length of the log dump... I jumped straight to debug2... :)
    EDIT: ok, your forum clips posts *way* too short to let me post the debug listing... so I uploaded it here: http://wolbachiax.googlepages.com/cups_error_log.txt ...Please consider adding attachments support, or allowing long [code] blocks or longer posts.
    Thanks,

    When you select print from the menu bar a print
    window opens. Verify that the correct printer is
    selected. Adobe will over ride some defaults and put
    in itself. Let me know if this didn't work.
    Thanks Glynn, but the correct printer is indeed selected. This is a weird one!
    FWIW, here is my CUPS error log:

  • Cannot print PDF from websites

    We have about 50 PCs. We regulalry download documents from websites and print them out. But on one PC we are having problems. We can download the document and view it on screen. The problem PC does not have a local printer. Instead it is connected to two printers shared through the main server: a HP 4250 and a HP4014. We cannot print these downloaded PDFs to either printer. When we attempt to print the confirmation "bubble" does not appear about the tasktray, but he printer icon does appear. When I open the printer window it briefly dispalys a 1 for the number of print jobs. When I look at the list of jobs it says the job is spooling, then it deletes and disappears. If I view the queue from another PC it shows the job spooling and then disappearing. If I store the PDF locally it will print no problem. We have a couple of printers shared from PCs. I can print from the affected PC straight from websites to these printers no problem. Some of the documents we want to print do not have a save option. Instead we print to a virtual PDF printer, save locally, then open with Adobe Reader and it prints no problem. I have tried reinstalling the network printers, but doesn't fix the problem. We are running 10.1.4 on the affected PC. Any help would be much apprecited.

    Some more information would be useful:
    What application are you using to print, Preview, Adobe Reader, Acrobat, or something else?
    What happens when you try to print? Can you not select it from the File menu? Does something go wrong with the Print dialog box? Is it something that happens afterwards?

  • Cannot print PDF from iBook G4 and iMac G5 to HP printer

    I cannot print any PDF documents or any downloads from websites that convert to PDFs onto our HP 6110. All other applications or documents do work. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

  • Cannot print pdf from Preview

    Preview freezes everytime I select print! What's up with Lion... Leopard was far better, too many bugs in Lion.

    I cannot print a pdf from preview either. Have you found out how to correct this yet?

  • I cannot print PDFs from Firefox.

    Since I updated to Firefox 5.0 it shows PDFs differently, and will NO LONGER print them. The PDFs from these sites used to print okay, and still do print if I use Internet Explorer.
    When I click Print on the menu or toolbar, nothing happens.
    The Adobe style print box does not come up.
    Print preview shows a blank page with only header & footer.

    Go to Print-Page Setup and turn on "print backgroud".

  • Cannot Print PDFs from Adobe Reader

    Hey gang-
    Just purchased a new Brother MFC-9420CN color laser printer. Works great- with one exception.
    I am unable to print any PDFs with it from Adobe Reader. But note this: The very same PDFs print fine using Preview! I initially discovered this problem using Adobe Reader 7.0.5, so I downloaded and installed the latest Adobe Reader 8.1. No Help. I also reinstalled the latest Brother Drivers- no help.
    I then went into Printer Setup Utility and did the Reset Printing System- re-added all Printers- but no help. I am running OS 10.4.9 on a G5 iMac.
    I've seen this mentioned elsewhere including here:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2643378&#2643378
    Thoughts on how to fix this?
    Thanks!

  • Cannot print .pdf from web browser, being prompted to save

    We have Adobe Reader 9 installed
    It is being run on a Vista OS
    User is able to open a pdf file and print to the printer without any problems.
    The problem occurs when the pdf is opened in a browser window.
    When you select the print button and select to print the document, rather than printing as would be the norm, it defaults to saving to a location.
    You can save it, then open what was saved in Reader and print it.
    What changes need to be made in order for it to print from the browser rather than try to save?

    Hi ronquaedvlieg,
    What is the current version of Reader installed on your machine?
    Have you tried to install the latest version, also have you tried to check latest updated driver for your printer.
    What is the problem you are facing while trying to print using Reader, are you getting any error. Attach screen shot of the error if any.
    Also i moving this discussion under Reader forums.

  • Cannot print pdf from safari

    When I try to print a pdf downloaded by safari I only get a blank, black page, if I print via safari itself, and an error that no pages are selected (when thy are) if I try to print via adobe reader,  I'm running OSX 10.9.2 and Safari 7.0.3

    To view PDF in Preview, you have to remove Adobe Reader.
    Remove Adobe plug ins if any.
    Macintosh HD > Library > Internet Plug-ins
    Look for these two files.
    AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin
    AdobePDFViewer.plugin
    Right click it and then select Move to Trash”.

  • Adobe v9 on W7 and office 2007. cannot create PDF from MS word using Adobe. But can from Excel, PPT

    Adobe v9 on W7 and office 2007. cannot create PDF from MS word using Adobe. But can from Excel, PPT and other MS office apps. Reinslalled Adobe, updated Office, and Adobe no help! Also I can create a pdf from the MS Word and it is using the Adobe 9. So one would think that's good. No it isn't when you need to combine different files to one big PDF document. Any suggetions? Thank you

    Yes, I’m saying that I can in WORD use “Save As ADOBE pdf” but cannot in ADOBE create a pdf file from a WORD (.doc or .docx) document. While I can from other MS Office apps like Excel and PowerPoint.
    I understand I can use “work around” and save doc in WORD as pdf then compile all files needed (xml, ppt, pdf) in the ADOBE v9. to one big pdf document. But that is not the point of this post.

  • Text getting cut off when printing to PDF from Excel

    Hello,
         I've seen a lot related to this subject but nothing that shows a real solution.
         Using Excel 2003-sp3 and Adobe Acrobat v.9 Standard, the right half of the last character in the string gets cut off. It prints from excel fine.
         It's not always the text that is the right-most on the page either. An affected PDF file is attached - note the cut off "S" on the last line (NET ASSETS OF GOVERNMENTAL ACTIVITIES).
         Any assistance is appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Kevin Murphy

  • How do i print to pdf from excel? I am using Windows 8.1 and Office 365 (new)

    How do i print to pdf from excel? I am using Windows 8.1 and Office 365 (new)

    Please see Huge lag in games on bootcamp as a reference. The linked thread is for a GT750m.
    Since there are no mid-2013 Retina models (as per Apple - Support - Technical Specifications), assuming this is your Mac - MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013) - Technical Specifications - the same should work for you.

  • Cant print black from excel for mac 2011 anymore only colour

    I can't print black from excel for mac 2011 anymore only colour. Can print normally from all other programs. Will not work from excel. Will only print colour. Have reinstalled printer drivers with no difference. Brand new mac so should be no font issues. I have to screen print all excel documents to print. Wont work if saved as PDF either. Am looking for suggestions. Have checked all preferences and settings. Tried fine and fast - no difference. Comes out blank. Will only print colour. HELP!

    I have a variation of this same problem.  I maintain a bunch of Microsoft Excel 97-2004 Workbooks.  Some of these documents print in colour (actually a light grey colour), while others print in black ink.  I cannot discern the difference between the documents and why the difference in printing.
    Thanks in advance for your assistance,
