Acrobat 5.0.5, Windows XP, not printing to scale

I use an admitedly odd CADD program (Visual CADD 4.0) to make drawings. Until today, I was able to create a document from CADD to Acrobat that would then print to scale on any laser or ink jet printer. This morning I emailed a drawing to someone who reported that the drawing was smaller than scale. I printed one myself and verified that this is the case. I have tried various settings to correct the problem to no avail. Any ideas on what might have changed and / or how to fix it?
Thanks,
Ken

In the print menu there are selections for shrink and expand to page. Turn that off. There is an outside chance you had it on when you created the PDF.

  • Smartforms main window is not printing

    Hi,
    I would like to ask what to do with this problem.
    The smartform main window is not printing in all the pages.  All the other windows, even the window with the total data is printing.  The only problem is the contents of the main window is not printing.
    Also, the problem only happens when the I've changed printer.
    When I use LOCL as printer, the smartform is OK but when I change the printer, the problem is encountered.
    This also happens when I change environment from development server to production server.  In production server, even the LOCL printer is encountering the problem.
    thanks.

    Hi Mike,
    Have you checked the device type in transaction SPAD? Try to click on Full Admininstration from application toolbar and select device types.
    Hope the above helps.
    Cheers,

  • PDF files created in Acrobat Pro X for Mac will not print correctly on Windows - text is missing

    I recently created a PDF file with pictures and texts in Acrobat Pro X. However, when I send it to my coworkers (who work on Windows computers), the printed file contains only images, and no text. I am using Century Gothic - a font that is installed on these Windows computers. When they open the files, they can see the text and everything exactly as it is meant to be. However, upon printing, the text disappears completely.
    We are using a Konica Minolta Bizhub printer to complete these printouts. When I print from my computer (the Mac), the files print perfectly on this printer. However, when using the same printer, a Windows user cannot print the text in the PDF's.
    Has anyone else run across this problem? I am thinking of trying to embed fonts, however it doesn't seem like it would make much of a difference (since the fonts show up fine on a Windows computer anyways). Is there a known issue with printing PDF's on a Konica Minolta printer?

    The archive format you used embeds all fonts, as does Press and Print type job settings. The standard job settings does not embed all fonts and that might be where the problem was.

  • Windows 8 not printing color files cp1525nw

    I had no problems printing until today.  B/W files print no problem.  A color MS publisher file stalls when printing.  Indicator on the printer says "printing document"  but the file does not print.  The file is approx 468kb saved, but when I select to print it, the file print status indicates that it tops out at 1.06/1.75 mb.  
    Again, b/w word documents print with no problem.  Is there a publisher plug in that i'm missing?   
    System: Windows 8 Pro, wireless network.

    Ok, thank you.
    I am assuming that this printer shows up correctly on the Printer tab in the AirPort Utility ... correct?
    Have you updated the Windows 8 version of the printer drivers from the manufacturer's support site yet? If not, please do. If, per chance, HP does not have Windows 8-specific drivers for this printer may be an indication that it is not supported, especially when connected to an AirPort router.
    Finally, have you installed Bonjour for Windows on your laptop? If not, please do.

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro 9, "This document could not Printed" then "No pages were selected"

    Windows 7, Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 (latest update)
    I have been researching this issue for days and can't find a solution. I am using Acrobat not Reader, there is not an option to uncheck the "enable protected mode" in Arcobat. The only error Adobe says I can have printing is different from the one I'm getting.  Can anyone answer this?

    Hi Josh ,
    Try re installing the printer subsystem and see if that works.

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.5.0 will not print SRA3 size paper

    I created an Adobe InDesign file 320x450mm (SRA3) and saved it as a a High Quality PDF. However, when I print from Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 with SRA3 paper size settings, it defaults to A4 and the printer will not register the SRA3 paper size request. The tech from Canon updated the printer driver which increased print dialog options such as Paper Handling, Paper Source etc. (which I didn't have before) and spent over an hour running tests. We both agreed there was a software issue since there were not issues from other software:
    I can print SRA3 files from InDesign and Microsoft Word, but not Adobe Acrobat Pro.
    This is an ongoing problem since I often receive artwork in PDF format at this size.
    My workaround is to place the PDF into InDesign, line up the crops by eye and print to SRA3 paper which works fine until I need to do a double sided print which becomes slightly innacurate and often time consuming.
    Canon printer driver specs:
    V2.0
    iR-ADV C5045/5051 PS (UK)

    What happens if you select other paper sizes? Also ensure that 'choose paper source by PDF page size' is not checked at your print dialog.
    Kindly let us know your results and if possible please forward us your pdf at [email protected]
    Looking forward to help you out.
    Thanks

  • HP Deskjet 9650 with Photoshop Elements 7 and Windows 7 not printing

    I have a new Windows 7 computer and installed Photoshop Elements 7.0 on it, which works fine, except I cannot print.  I did the installation instructions to use the alternate driver 9800 and can print 8 1/2 X 11 Word documents, but I cannot print a 12X12 scrapbook page to save my soul.  The resume print button keeps blinking and it spits it out blank.  Any help?
    I hope I do not have to get a new large format printer.

    I just accomplished this without any real problems and am now running with my same license on the newly rebuilt PC.  Here is what I did ...
    Originally my PSE7 configuration was set up last year on new Intel I7-based PC running Vista 64 bit version with a retail copy of the PSE7 software, i.e. not the upgrade version.  Once that was setup I imported my catalog from the older Adobe Photoshop Album on my previous system.  That put me at the place you are now, i.e. PSE7 on Windows Vista.
    For this upgrade I puchased the upgrade version of Windows 7 and an additional second disk drive.  I installed Windows 7 onto the clean drive, giving me a dual-boot system for either OS.  While booted on the Vista drive, I used the easy-transfer method to write a backup of my Vista files to an external disk drive.  I then rebooted into the Windows 7 drive and used the Easy-transfer tool to reload the files from the external drive. (note; this easy-transfer included >200GB of music/video/image files so it ran for several hours for each phase of the transfer)
    Once I verified the directory structure on the new Windows 7 setup, only then did I do the installation of PSE7.  That wnet flawlessly and relicensed without any problems.  Next I was able to open up my catalog in organizer and all of the images were intact.  Since then I have had no issues with the configuration.
    So bottom line is you should be fine doing the upgrade regardless of whether you do the upgrade like I did to a new drive or an in-place upgrade overlaying your vista environment.  For the in-place upgrade I would strongly recommend you still do a backup of all of your images and their associated catalog(s) to an external drive.  Win7 is a vast improvement over Vista so I'm sure you won't regret the upgrade but I don't trust any vendor's software upgrade procedure, especially Microsoft so please do the backup first.

  • Header window tiotle not printing on next page

    Hi !
    I have aa form in which I have a header table created inside the main window to print the titles of the line items, unit , unti price , Qty and totals. The next page has the similar format with the headerr table inside the main window, but unfortunately the header titles from the header title prints on the first page and when there are more items and the items are carried over to next page the titles dosent print on next page. Could nayone please tell me why the titles wouldnt be printing on the next page when the format is the same on teh next page also and it does have the texts to print there . Only the items are printing and not its titles.
    Thanks,

    Hi!
    Thanks for your reply. We are anyways getting the header in the first page its that I am not getting the header titles on second page and folowing pages only. I do have a next page in my smartforms and as per teh design both the pages has the header wondow but still it dosent print on second page but prints on first page. What I ahve done is created an extra window on my next page and created temp[late under that with the header titles and this prints it oin the second page now.
    Thanks

  • Mac Acrobat Pro v9.4.1 will not print to HP Envy 100

    Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.4.1 for the Mac on Mac OS X 10.6.5 or 10.6.6 was printing PDFs find to my new HP Envy 100 printer.
    I have the latest driver updates on the printer.
    I've tried deleting Acrobat preferences files - a common tactic to take on a Mac that clears up lots of issues. It didn't this time.
    I can take the very same PDF files and print them from the Mac OS X utility Preview just fine with no issues. Try Acrobat no luck.
    Not sure how to proceed right now. I see Acrobat go through the motions of printing and I even see the HP printer icon appear in the Finder dock like it does anytime you print from an application, but it quickly disappears and then the printer never does anything. Nothing is queued. It is almost as if Acrobat sent a zeroed out or null file to the printer queue.

    I have the almost exact same problem. Popped up out of nowhere. When I tried to print something today wirelessly from my Macbook, the computer tried endlessly to connect to the network, but failed. Everything is fine when I directly connect the printer and the Macbook. I have now deleted that networked printer from my list and when I try to add a new printer, the system is not finding any printers.
    Any help would be appreciated.

  • Why does my Epson 3800 printer not print to scale?

    I have designed a cover for a brochure in Illustrator CS4 that I intend to print at home. This cover has a mixture of colour graphics and mono text. The mono text prints more clearly on my HP LaserJet 2200 than my Epson 3800 inkjet printer so I intend to run my covers through the laser printer first for the mono text and then through the inkjet printer for all the colour items.
    I did this for last year's brochure cover without any apparent problems but my latest design is highlighting the fact that the laser printer is placing items on the page more accurately than my inkjet paper - which results in some misalignment. My Epson 3800 appears to be slightly expanding my Illustrator page layout even though I have selected the 'Do Not Scale' option in the Illustrator Print dialogue box. A measurement between two items in my Illustrator design is 278 mm. The same dimension on the printed page is 284 mm, i.e. 6 mm wider, which is a non-trivial error.
    Can anyone provide an explanation and/or solution for this behaviour?
    David  

    Hi Harron,
    Thanks for a rapid and accurate answer. The borderless option was indeed the culprit.
    Your reply was also very useful in alerting me to the existence of the 'Retain Size' option under Expansion. I'd never seen that before, despite owning my Epson 3800 for over two years! Of course, I could have read the manual ....
    The human brain is a puzzling thing. I don't think I'm stupid but I'd always ruled out the use of full bleed items in any of my amateur graphic design work as I didn't fancy printing everything on A3 just to cut it down to A4 (I use folded A4 to create an A5 brochure). I totally forgot my inkjet printer's capability to make borderless photographic prints. It's as if my brain was divided into a graphic arts compartment and a photographic compartment.
    Quite by accident, your comments have made both halves of my brain talk to one another and now my cover design benefits from the use of full bleed. I can't thank you enough!

  • Why can I not print two sided

    I just downloaded Acrobat reader Dc for windows and cannot print two sided.

    Hi Michael,
    I can understand your concern & will guide you in the right direction.
    To print both sides your printer should support duplex printing, please refer to this KB doc. Print double-sided | Acrobat, Reader
    In case if you still experience any issue please let us know, we will be happy to help you.

  • SAPScript graphic not printing

    Hi Folks
    I have a problem in a 3.1i system (yes that's right 3.1i - ah those were the days...I remember when..etc).
    I have changed a SAPScript layout (just the contents of a text element in the main window) and this works fine. However something is now causing the logo in the header window to not print at all (neither print preview nor hard copy). The standard text is there but I can not get this to print out from SO10 either.
    I don't think I have changed anything that could have caused this and it may be coincidence, but does anyone have an idea of what could be causing it?
    During testing of this problem, I have created a new layout and included the same logo and other graphics all with no result. I have checked that all graphic are created from Tif files (version 6 no compression).
    Now I have run out of ideas...
    Thanks in advance.
    Nick

    Fixed it by uploading the image again. Don't know why it didn't work before but it does now.
