Acrobat 7.0 printing letters not there

I have Adobe Acrobat 7.1.0 running on Mac OSX (10.6.3).  I downloaded a form which I turned into a printable form, saved it and filled it in.  However, when I go to print it, it prints letters not there.  It will change letter like the letter "P" and make it an "R".  Oh yea, these are letters that are part of the form, not what i added or typed in.
This problem has never happened before and I use Acrobat 7.0 all the time.......... OK I know I have to upgrade and I am going to, but my understanding is there are issues with Acrobat 9.0 and Mac X.
Help.............

No I can't post an example since it's PHI. 
But I did what you said.  The .pdf that works fine has nothing listed in the fonts page.  The one that doesn’t work has a lot of fonts.
On the Description page, the differences are:
Application (bad): IDRS KDK - Plus
Application (good): Xerox WorkCenter 7655
PDF Producer (bad): Image Recognition Integrated Systems S.A.
PDF Producer (good): Xerox WorkCenter 7655
So it's obviously trying to do some character recognition which I don't want.
So is my client (who sent these to me) sending from different scanners that are set up differently?  Or is she sending from the same scanner ... with the settings occasionally set differently for some reason.
I'd like to be a little educated before I talk to her.
Thanks for your help

  • Printer profile not there and brings into preview

    When I go to print, the printer profile for my Epson is not in the list. I know it's not on the computer, why is it not on the CS5 list?
    Then I click print and it print the image into Preview instead of printing on the epson. Why is that? thanks!

  • Adobe reader printer list not showing

    while printing the PDF File, windows  printers are not showing in the printer list. Where as windows printers are working in Word/Wordpad/notepad.

    Same Problem, Adobe Reader 11.0.06
    The printer I need is not in the list.
    It works fine for everything else, It is directly plugged into my computer, it shows in the services box as a printer I have.
    When I go to print, its not there.....
    I have 3 others, they are there.  But I need a bigger 11x17 paper so I print to a different printer.
    It will not let me make it my default ?  So cant try that.
    I have used the Adobe removal tool and reinstalled with no luck
    Any thoughts ??
    Where do I download an order working version of Adobe Reader ?
    Thanks

  • I just purchased Adobe Acrobat Standard DC andf upgraded from Acrobat XI. When I instalkled it on my PC the print Production Tools were there and functional. I installed it on my Laptop and those tolls are not there. What do I need to do to have Print Pro

    I just purchased Adobe Acrobat Standard DC andf upgraded from Acrobat XI. When I instalkled it on my PC the print Production Tools were there and functional. I installed it on my Laptop and those tolls are not there. What do I need to do to have Print Production Tools on both computers?

    This is quite odd. I wonder if you could try something for me on EACH computer.
    Use Help > About Adobe Acrobat DC.
    At the top of the box it should say Adobe Acrobat Pro DC or Adobe Acrobat Standard DC.
    On each of the two machines, what does it say? (I think something odd has happened)

    Hi , Welcome to the HP Forums! I understand that you cannot print wirelessly with your HP Photosmart Premium c310 on Mac OS X 10.9. I am happy to look into this connection issue for you! I am not sure which support pages you have been to, but here are some that I would suggest going through: 'Printer Offline' or 'Printer Not Responding' Message (OS X).Printer Does Not Maintain Wireless Connection. Tips for troubleshooting wireless connection issues
    The following tips can help you troubleshoot and avoid wireless connectivity issues. You can try these tips separately or in combination to get a successful wireless signal. Move the printer and the computer closer to the router, but no closer than 6 ft (1.8 m). Wireless signals can be weaker at greater distances between the printer and the router.If you are experiencing an intermittent wireless connection, try restarting your router. Consult your router manufacturer, Internet service provider, or network administrator for instructions on how to restart the router.Remove any metal objects between the printer, the computer, and the router. Objects such as refrigerators, microwaves, or metal bookcases can interfere with wireless transmission.Move any device that emits radio signals, such as microwaves and cordless telephones, farther away from the printer. Such devices can interfere with wireless signals. Are you able to print to the printer with any other wireless devices? Hope this information is helpful, and hope to hear from you soon!  “Please click the Thumbs up icon below to thank me for responding.”

  • Some of the times when I print a document from the internet using my Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro printer, the letters appear in the PDF as symbols, How do I correct the problem?

    On many documents that I try and print from the internet such as receipts, conformations, etc, using my Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional printer, the PDF shows some if not all the letters as symbols.  I think it might be font issue, but do not know how to fix the problem.  Any suggestions.
    On another issue, can a Tiff file of my signature be inserted in a PDF?

    Hello,
    For 1st issue please follow the steps in given article:

  • Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Printer Drivers does not pass windows logo testing.

    Issue:
    I'am using the Acrobat Wizard tool to customize Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro to run create Adobe installed to run siliently within our network but I recieve the following hardware prompt to complete the install.
    During the install of the Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro I recieve a Hardware Installation prompt:
    The software you are installing for this hardware:
    Printer
    Has not passed Windows Logo testing to verfiy its compatibility with Windows XP.
    Continue your installation of this software may impair or destabilize the correct operation of your system either immediately or in the future. Microsoft strongly recommends that you stop this installation now and contact the hardware vendor for software that has passed Windows Logo testing.
    Is there any way I can download the drivers before I run the installation or is there a patch for Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.
    Thanks

    When I start itunes i get the message "Itunes was not properly installed if you wish to burn Cds you will need to reinstall itunes" Any ideas what i should do anyone?
    That sounds like the GEAR drivers that iTunes uses for burning and importing aren't going in properly. (or there's damaged GEAR drivers for an old install stuck on the PC.
    Perhaps manually uninstalling and reinstalling the GEAR drivers can get you past this. There's instructions for that on the GEAR wiki:
    [DRIVERS: Windows - Updating, removing, 64 bit versions, etc|http://www.gearsoftware.com/wiki/index.php?title=DRIVERS:Windows_-_Updating%2C_removing%2C_64_bit_versions%2Cetc]

  • Slug and bleed print fine from Acrobat 9.5.3 but not Acrobat 9.5.4

    Our creative department is having issues printing slugs from Acrobat.
    (slugs were created in InDesign CS5 and exported to pdf)
    There are NO issues printing form Acrobat Pro 9.5.3.
    Ther ARE issues printing from Arobat Pro 9.5.4.
    The slug and bleed shows up in the print preview screen but does NOT print.
    Does anyone have any advice or solutions?
    Thanks!

    Did you ever figure this out? One day I was printing slugs a few days later acrobat was not printing them, even though they show in the preview. Help?

  • In installation process of Acrobat Professional 7 , its showing that Adobe Pdf printer is not Installed...need help to install the software completely

    In installation process of Acrobat Professional 7 , its showing that Adobe Pdf printer is not Installed...need help to install the software completely

    If it is Win 7 or later, the Adobe PDF printer for AA 7 will not install and AcroTray will not function. You will have to install a PS driver from Adobe or maybe an HP color PS printer driver. Then edit the driver properties and change the name to Adobe PDF and the port to FILE. You will always have to do an extra step in creating PDFs by opening the file that is created in Distiller to get the PDF.
    If you are talking about Win 8, you may not be successful at all. If you got Acrobat and Distiller to install, then there is a chance.

  • Acrobat ignores my PowerPoint Print Layout Notes Pages view and gives me regular slides PDF.

    I have written a presentation in PowerPoint in the usual PowerPoint slide view.  Now I want to print the presentation as a manual or booklet.
    For this I go to the Print File Print page.
    I select Print Layout > Notes Pages and click Print.
    Acrobat creates a PDF only of the Full Page Slides. It ignores my change of print layout before creating the PDF.
    I have tried printing to file (PostScript  *prn). The prn is the slides view.
    I could maybe create an image of every slide, and try pdfing it that way? But the file is 100 (slides) long.  Anyone see an easier way of doing this?
    Thanks in advance for any input,

    Based on your description, I assume you are running on a Windows system with both Office and Acrobat installed.
    There are three ways of producing PDF from PowerPoint in this situation.
    The first method is to use the Save as Adobe PDF / PDFMaker solution that doesn't involve printing at all. It produces the highest quality PDF of all three methods, but the options for this allow the notes only to come out as PDF annotations in a separate,hide-able layer, not as the full Notes Pages format, regardless of the current settings for displaying the PowerPoint file on screen. You can see the annotations in comments pane in the comments tool. This isn't what you want.
    The second method is to use the Microsoft Save as function and specify PDF instead of a .PPT or .PPTX file. If you press Options, one of the options is to publish the Notes Pages instead of just the Slides. That will give you what you want, but Microsoft's generated PDF is somewhat wonky, often generating invalid PDF with improper font references and other problems too numerous to get into here.
    The third method is to print to the Adobe PDF PostScript printer driver instance. The secret here is that under Settings, instead of selecting the default Print All Slides, you need to select Notes Pages. In other words, the print function ignores the view you currently have on the screen. The only problem with this approach is that the resultant PDF file is not nearly as high a quality as the PDF produced by Save as Adobe PDF, but it should probably be sufficient for your needs.
    That having been said, I will submit a request internally to “beef up” our Save as Adobe PDF to provide an option for the Notes Pages as an alternative to putting out the notes as annotations.
    Please advise if this solves your issue.

    You can try two different ways to print your photos as a document:
    1) Download a trial version of Adobe Acrobat XI and you it as your printer.  This creates a pdf file for you and you can just view the file on your screen or print it out using your printer;
    2) Windows 7 comes with Microsoft XPS Document Writer.  You can select it as your printer and save the file as a document by giving it a name;
    Click on this this picture to get the idea:
    Good luck.

  • When Printing Flash Paper from Acrobat Professional, Flash paper is not able to search!

    When I try to print a flash paper file from adobe acrobat professional, it prints, and it creates the flash paper file. The flash paper file is no longer search-able though, when I try searching, it just says "not found".
    The original PDF is search-able, and I have created the flash paper files before and they were search-able, but now they are not. Is there something I'm missing? Please let me know!
    contact me at [email protected]
    Thanks!

    I havent exported any videos in the past from Flash. The movie is around 45 seconds and the size is 470KB.
    I tried both, the memory and the hard drive.
    In the attached image you can see the settings and in the other image you can see the progress bar that remains without something to happen.
    I dont mind what type of video to export it can be also .avi but again I have troubles there. It is very large and the animation is distorted.
    The animation consist from two scenes. The first one can be exported without any problem but the second one cannot be exported. May be because it has some masks layers and guide layers?

  • Pdf printer is not get installed while installing adobe acrobat pro 11 in win 7 32 bit

    pdf printer is not get installed while installing adobe acrobat  pro 11 in win 7 32 bit

    BlackCat,
    Two things:
    1) Acrobat 8 Pro is not Win 7 compatible, no less Win 7 64-bit copmpatible
    2) Reader X and Acrobat 8 are not a supported combination. Reader X and Acrobat X is the first Windows combination that is supported by Adobe. Reader X and Acrobat 8 will cause problems.
    You are using a brand new 64-bit OS, you need to use an application that is designed to work with it. Acrobat X is the way to go, HOWEVER, there are still growing pains with Acrobat X, Win 7 64-bit, and the latest version of Office.

  • Exporting pdf "acrobat distiller printer description not found" ERROR!

    Anybody who knows how to fix this please let me know!
    Thanks

    You may need to re-install Adobe Acrobat Pro, assuming you need the functionality of Acrobat to create PDFs. To create simple PDF's there is a PDF menu on every print dialog box that does not require the Distiller printer description file.

  • PDF Printer is not working. Is there an update?

    I have a large document that I'm trying to save individual pages into separate files. I usually do this by using the pdf printer and selecting the pages I want to save as individual files.  I recently moved to a new computer and can no longer use the pdf printer.  Is there an update I'm missing? 

    Acrobat 7 is not compatible with anything beyond Windows XP. Beginning with Windows Vista and forward, there were changes in the way drivers work such that the Adobe PDF PostScript print driver instance needed to be modified. The first version of Acrobat that was fully compatible with Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8.x is Acrobat 8.1. If a user installed Acrobat 8 on such a system and then applied the 8.1 update, the Adobe PDF PostScript printer driver instance appears and works.
    Alas, Acrobat 8 is no longer licensed by Adobe. Your upgrade path now is to Acrobat DC Pro.
