Issue with printing with Acrobat Reader X

Hello, we recently upgraded to Acrobat Reader X on our Terminal Servers and we are having a print issue. When a PDF is being printed, on any printer, the same fonts are not printing like how the pdf is being displayed on the screen. This is only happening to some of our users and for others the PDF is printing correctly. Has anyone experienced this issue? Does anyone have any ideas how I can fix this? Thanks for any help.

Hello craigsat,
You are offtopic. Your problem is not the same as topic starter. You have to make your own topic. Sorry for my reply on your post, my mistake.
Acroblabchi,
Quick responce! I just tested running as admin, but that gives the same result, bad print format. We updated from version 8 to X last week. Print as Image gives a good result, and is good as a workaround, but not a permanent solution.
Gr. Paul.

Problem with printing from Acrobat Reader XI

SInce I installed Acrobat Reader XI I have got problems with printing out pages. The text starts a bit down (2 cm) on the paper, resulting that the last part of the text on the page will be missing. And the missing part does not follow on page 2, it just don´t comes out!
It doesn´t matter what settings i click in on the print setting page in Acrobat Reader, it always gets the same result.
Does anyone know what can be the problem?

No files appeared in C:\Users\Pavilion\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe PDF\Settings but they did appear in Distiller.
I tried to copied them from C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 11.0\Acrobat\Settings, but found they were already there. I copied them by adding -COPY before .joboptions in the name. Now they appeared in Printing Preferences with the -COPY added.
I tested a print from Word (using File / Print), but was not prompted for the filename or location. I checked my entire system and couldn't find the PDF file anywhere. I tried changing the Port to Desktop\*.pdf using Printer Properties, but that didn't work either.
I was able to successfully use the Acrobat menu item in Word & Excel to create a PDF but it automatically created the file on the Desktop without an option to change the filename.
After several days and hours, I gave up and installed Acrobat X on the W7 computer. I can still use Acrobat XI on the W8 computer. So be it!
Thanks anyway for your attempts to help.

PDFs not printing from Acrobat Reader 7.0.8

PDF don't print from Acrobat Reader 7.0.8. The same PDFs print from Preview. I've tried many PDF from various sources (over a dozen including those created on my Mac) in every case they print fro Preview and not from Reader.
I'm currently on OS 10.4.7 but This has been an issue for some time and I believe was the case with Reader 7.0.7.

FIXED!
Priner Setup Utility/Reset Printing System
Then added priner again.
Interesting that the only issue was printing from Acrobat Reader and that this fixed it. Probably deleted and "rewrote" whatever file was at issue.

Printing freezes Acrobat Reader various versions

I have one (luckily, just one) client who has a problem printing from Acrobat Reader. So far, this problem has been with v6.x, v7.x, and v9.x (uninstalled 6.x, installed and uninstalled 7.x, and then installed 9.x, trying to solve this issue, with no changes).
For the longest time, there was NO problem printing PDF files. Then, she couldn't print at all, it would bring up an error message. I read where setting/changing the default printer would solve this, and it did -- to a point.
Now, when she tries to print (FILE | PRINT -- read below as to why this is necessary), it will print, but the printer dialog box takes a LONG time to come up (3-5 minutes) and then the drop down menu to select a printer takes a long time to come up, as well.
She travels between various offices, which is why she must use FILE | PRINT -- she needs to choose the printer(s) that are available to her when she logs into the network. There are HP, Cannon, Lexmark, and other printers at these various locations.
The problem *only* happens in Acrobat Reader. All of the other applications print fine.
Today, I discovered something interesting by accident. If she is *disconnected* from a network, and starts a print job (again, FILE | PRINT), the printer dialog box opens almost immediately, as does the printer selection drop-down menu. She can then reconnect to the network, after selecting a printer, and then press OK (to print), at which time it does print just fine.
So, in a nutshell:
(1) It *only* happens when trying to print something from Acrobat Reader regardless of version.
(2) It is *only* slow to bring up the printer dialog box, and printer selection drop-down menu when connected to a network.
(3) It *will* eventually (say 3-5 minutes later) bring up the printer dialog box, and printer selection drop-down menu, and print, when connected to a network.
(4) She is using Windows XP (I didnt check on the service pack version, it is, for certain SP2 at least, although she may have allowed Windows Updates to upgrade it to SP3). Multiple printers are being used, from various vendors (HP, Lexmark, Canon, others) so it is extremely unlikely that it is a printer driver issue.
(5) There are others with identical laptops, Windows XP, and using the same printers and Acrobat Reader who also travel to the same offices and work in the same fashion as she, and they do not have this issue.
So, anyone out there smarter than me, any suggestions about how to resolve this?

Hi, I found this to work
open cmd
type the following and press enter after each command:
c:
cd\
del arc*.tmp /S
What the command does is that it deletes acrobat temp files that are stored on your pc, which slows down acrobat printing.
I found this info at http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/403/kb403914.html towards the bottom of the page
Hope it helps

Printing in Acrobat Reader X gives an extra unwanted line in the bottom margin

Printing in Acrobat Reader X gives an extra unwanted line in the bottom margin. This margin should normally be blank. The line pattern follows the pattern of the print inside the margins. How can I print without this extra line?. The problem does not occur with the same documents opened in Acrobat Reader 9.4.

I had the same problem when I created my pdf for my Realtor flyer using microsoft publisher. I was able to get rid of the unwated line by using a png file in the publisher before generating the pdf.

Printing from Acrobat Reader 9.1

I can not print from Acrobat Reader 9.1 to my HP printer connected wirelessly to my Mac. I can print fine from any other software on my Mac. Tips and suggestions are welcome!

I'm having the same issue. It all started after upgrading to 10.5.7 and Adobe Acrobat to 8.1.5.
I have an HP Photosmart C7280 and I am able to print via WiFi from all applications except Acrobat (version 8). However, Acrobat will print 1 page documents, but nothing longer.
At first I thought it was the 10.5.7 update. I saw in some other places that downloading and installing the combo update worked better for some folks. I did that, but still no joy.
I did the "Reset Printing System..." thing in system preferences and added the HP back. Still no joy.
I uninstalled and re-installed the HP software (drivers and all). Still no joy.
I uninstalled Acrobat and re-installed from CD so I was back to version 8.0. Still no joy.
I have not re-upgraded Acrobat to 8.1.5, but I don't have high hopes.
I wondering where the fix will come from. Hard to say that the problem is exclusively Adobe... made two changes to my system (OS upgrade and Acrobat upgrade). I have seen folks that dropped back to 10.5.6 and the problem persisted for them. I don't want to go back to 10.5.6 as I don't have that kind of time.
Printing from Preview for now.

I am having issues with printing using Adobe Reader

I am currently using adobe reader and have not been able to print with my HP DeskJet 3050, I have both reinstalled my drivers and Reader, yet they both will not work. Every time I click print it brings up the printing options screen, from there I have tried the following: I have tried printing the document as an image, changing the language to see if the printer itself could not handle the printing language and I have also tried to save the document as a preprint and printing it from there yet it is still not working.

Error with pdf, adobe acrobat reader 8 and Mozilla Firefox 2

Hello.
I create view PDF file with following code
String filename = "er.pdf"
File file = new File("C:/" + filename);
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(file);
int length = (int)file.length();
httpServletResponse.setContentType("application/pdf");
httpServletResponse.setContentLength(length);
ServletOutputStream fos = httpServletResponse.getOutputStream();
byte buffer[] = new byte[4096];
int count = fis.read(buffer,0,buffer.length);
while (count > 0) {
fos.write(buffer,0,count);
count = fis.read(buffer,0,buffer.length);
} // end while
// Cleanup
fis.close();
// session.removeAttribute(key);
// file.delete(); // If temporary file
} catch (Exception ex) {
System.out.println("error");
This call Error when I used browser Mozilla 2 and plugin adobe acrobat reader 8, but all work good, when I used adobe acrobat reader 7 and Mozilla 2.
I need help.
Have someone this problem?

Hi,
did you search the Mozilla forum for this issue? I don't think that the JDeveloper 11 forum is the right place to post this problem if it is an Adobe/Mozilla issue

I Can't open the attechment in mail with latter open , acrobat reader , ... . Please help me

Atfer the upgrade os of my ipad to 6 . i can't open the all of attechment in LATTEROPEN program & Acrobat Reader & other app.
PLease help me. how can i open it ?

I my case there is no button - I can't even scroll down. But I also don't get any error message, especially not "domain error 912".
If I try to open the .mov file the screen shows the movie-progressbar (where you can normally scroll through the video) for half a second and then the screen goes gray. In the middle of the gray screen I can see the file name and the text "QuickTime-Film" (german version) and the file size. Underneath is a "play-button" (with no reaction if I click on it) and the buttons for forwarding the movie and the button for airplay. No "Download full message"-button.
Seems that we are having different problems with more or less the same result. Again, it only seems to happen with mail which was sent through MS Exchange and it started with IOS 7.1. Therefore I don't think that we can fix it but I hope that someone from Apple is "listening".
My fault! I misunderstood your posting - I was looking for a "download full message"-Button on the screen AFTER clicking on the movie icon. But you meant the mail itself - and there I found it. Thanx! That also explains why small mail went through without problems but larger didn't.

Can't print from acrobat reader

I have a mac mini (2011) running lion. I have the latest version of Acrobat Reader installed. When viewing any pdf file, it works fine. However, if I click on the printer icon, nothing happens. Nothing goes to the print queue. Also, if I hit File>Print, the printer dialogue doesn't appear. Nothing happens at all.
I can print pdf files from Preview, just fine, so I know it's not a printer problem.
I've trashed and reinstalled Acrobat Reader, fixed permissions, rebooted and trashed the Adobe Application Support files from Library.
I'm stumped. I have to have Acrobat, as it's the only program that can open certain government forms. I can't "print as image" since I can't even get the printer dialogue to show up. I'm only having this issue on one machine, so I'm completely stumped.
HELP!

"IF" You are using, OSX.4.11 Try locating , downloading, installing AppleJack (there currently isn't a version for Leopard or Snow Leopard). The to Run Restart holding down the Command-S keys. This put you in Single User Mode (Raw UNIX).
when a screen full of print scrolls through and your left with a Blink Cursor, Type applejack.
simply follow directions. go by the numbers follow them in order they are given.
Now items 3&4 you have to do once for your system, and once for each User Account (name you gave computer when setting up example you gave name as John Smith name for user account would be johnsmith).
Once completed (1-5) hit return then choose Reboot or Shutdown.
In your case choose r and then hit return.
when it restarts wait, a whole bunch of cache files were dumped. You may even see the "dreaded "Blue screen for a little bit, and bits and piece of the desktop will appear until completely rebuilt.
After rebuilt Try printing.
If that doesn't work. Report back and maybe someone else can come up with an idea.

Editing pdf document with prints with DPI

Because I can't afford Adobe Acrobat to edit pdf(s) I use Page and Word. I use photoshop to create digital art work and save them at 300 DPI. For the first book I created with an online publisher the art work looked good. However, I re-did the book and added more art work but the publisher kept telling my dpi was less than 200 and it would come out blurry. They were right. I received the proof and the proof was blurry and pixel lated. To try to correct this I tried a larger dpi but this didn't do anything. Has anyone had a similar problem with prints and dpi becoming less when the original was 300 dpi yet changes when trying to get published to less of 200. I know this complicated and maybe hard to follow. I don't know how to explain it better.

>Filling of Form Fields enabled
You're confusing "enabled" with "allowed".
If I were to guess I'd say you are looking at the security in File>Properties and seeing the word "allowed".
That just means if the creator of the file had added form fields, you would be "allowed" to fill them out.

How can I permanently disable double sided printing in Acrobat Reader 11.0.09?

It is annoying to have to manually turn off double sided printing every time I print a *.pdf. Is this fixable?

Hi prtlaw,
Are you still look for answer?
These option are available with printer drivers. So, this is something you need to check from printer http://windows.microsoft.com/en-in/windows/choosing-print-options#1TC=windows-7
Or change the properties of every document:

Adobe 9 issues with forms in Acrobat Reader 7

I've been reading up on this forum as to why the adobe rights are disabled after a user saves their data in Reader. I have been adding form fields in Adobe Standard 9 then save the file, test it in Reader, then Extend the Forms Fill-In for Adobe Reader and save the file with a slightly different name. The only usage rights that are allowed is to Save Form Data. When I test the file in Reader 7, I can save the data but when I go into the document to make sure my data is there, I get that dreaded and popular message "Adobe Rights have changed and are no longer valid dialog box...
I never changed the original extended file to cause this..even when I don't add data but save to a new file anyway I lose the writable functionality.
A side note, I do not use LiveCycle and have been asked not to when creating these forms.
I did not have any problems with the forms that I had other people create and extend in Adobe Pro 8. It seems to be a Standard 9 and Pro 9 problem. Or, it could very well be me!
I use Reader 7 to test because these forms are for a volunteer organization and there are users on some early versions of Reader. II do not use earlier versions of Reader. This doesn't seem to be an issue in Reader 9. I cannot vouch for Reader 8.
I just had one of my form writers take my form that was done in Standard 9 and Extend Forms Fill-In via Adobe Pro 8. She initally received a message stating that the file appears to use a new format and it may not open or display correctly. I then got that same message when opening the extended version of the file. The document rights on the new form allow me to add comments and markup, a digital signature and save form data. Once I fill out the fields and try to save, also get another dialog box telling me that I need Adobe Standard or Professional to save (in this case it was 7 since I'm testing in Reader 7).
The forms that I am creating are initally PDFed by another party. The orignal forms are created in QuarkXpress 4.1 and PDFed using Acrobat Distiller 4.0 for Macintosh. I retrieve the files from a web site and save them to my hard drive to work on them. They are shared via email.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've spent the last week researching but no anwers to help me solve this particular issue with 9.

Interesting. I did just do the Reduce File Size and extended the document and there were no dialog boxes when I saved my data. The file size got larger instead of smaller and I received the message at the end of the Reduce File Size cycle that said " Enforcement of compatability to an earlier version of Acrobat has increased the size of some images". There is an image in the file, not one that I added, but from the original document. No change to the image either. No biggie to me. As long as my users can fill out the form and come back to it later to make changes, I'm happy!
Thank you. I think that solved it!

Issues when Printing with "Summarize Comments" option

I've been using Acrobat 8 to review documents via the comment tool.
The issue is that when I want to print a hard copy and I select "Summarize Comments" and Select the option to print "Document and Comments with sequence numbers on separate pages" option, I can not get a full sized (A3)printout of the original document. Acrobat seems to automatically place a large white border around the original page and no selection of orientation or page size seems to remove this.
Can any advise a solution to enable a full size printout with the sequence numbers included.

It's going to be tough to match the RGB work you've done for the web and laser printers are a challenge. You might have to rebuild the file or convert the colors to CMYK. The grays will probably be the easy part ( 20%, 45% ), but the dark greenish blue will have to be remixed ( i.e., 100C, 18.5M, 0Y, 51K ). I think you could use the existing elements, but you might have to expand them or divide them. You should avoid layering or overlaying, just work with a flattened .ai file and see if that prints any better. Raster elements, transparency, and layering effects are better handled via a Postscript 3 RIP + PRINTER. If your laser is non-postscript and does not have a RIP ( raster image processor ), then the color will be problematic. If you will be printing the sheets for the tradeshow using the laser, then whatever you mix will be able to be proofed ( by eye, I assume ) internally. If you go outside and use a Kinkos or something, then color should be proofed using a contract proofer at your local prepress shop before sending it out to be printed.

Problem with Printing Preferences Acrobat XI on Windows 7

I just upgraded from Acrobat X Std to XI Pro on both my Windows 7 desktop and Windows 8 laptop. The laptop works fine, but on the desktop I'm not able to print to the Adobe PDF printer from Word or Excel or Chrome. I noticed that the Adobe PDF Printing Preferences do not display any options for Default Settings or Adobe PDF Security. I did find the Standard.joboptions file in the C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Adobe PDF\Settings folder on both machines. What could be the problem?

No files appeared in C:\Users\Pavilion\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe PDF\Settings but they did appear in Distiller.
I tried to copied them from C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 11.0\Acrobat\Settings, but found they were already there. I copied them by adding -COPY before .joboptions in the name. Now they appeared in Printing Preferences with the -COPY added.
I tested a print from Word (using File / Print), but was not prompted for the filename or location. I checked my entire system and couldn't find the PDF file anywhere. I tried changing the Port to Desktop\*.pdf using Printer Properties, but that didn't work either.
I was able to successfully use the Acrobat menu item in Word & Excel to create a PDF but it automatically created the file on the Desktop without an option to change the filename.
After several days and hours, I gave up and installed Acrobat X on the W7 computer. I can still use Acrobat XI on the W8 computer. So be it!
Thanks anyway for your attempts to help.
