Acrobat 9's PDF Printer prints pages individually (W7x64)

Hello,
I have a user that tries to print a document using Acrobat 9's PDF Printer. Despite specifying to print the whole document, the printer prompts a save location for each page of the document. This is done from Excel 2010 Pro Plus with the OS Windows 7 Enterprise x64 edition.
So basically, what happens is that the printer makes a file for each page of the document.

What version of Acrobat 9?

  • Acrobat Help | Basic PDF printing tasks

    This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/basic-pdf-printing-tasks.html

    The idea of re-sorting multiple pages so they appear in the correct order when printed on saddle-stitched or stapled pager is called imposition. Neither Adobe Reader nor Adobe Acrobat will do it for you automatically.
    Often if your printer has double-sided capability the manufacturer's driver software will have an option that handles imposition for you. If so it can be accessed through the Advanced button on the print dialog and that would work in both Reader and Acrobat just the same.
    Failing that, using Acrobat there are two options - either rearrange the pages by hand (drag and drop in the page navigation sidebar) or use a plugin such as Quite Imposing that will also handle things like margin adjustments and rotating pages to fit portrait<>landscape etc.

  • How to allow domain users to customize  Adobe PDF  printer page size in Printer Preferences

    Hi
    I am able to customize  Adobe PDF  printer page size in Printer Preferences in admin login but not able to customize  Adobe PDF  printer page size in domian users login...
    can I have a solution to customize  Adobe PDF  printer page size in domin user login

    WOW! I was amazed to see that within minutes of posting my initial thread, I tried something that works.
    Apparently, the only way is will actually convert is if you select the regular Print option in the File tab. Then, change the Printer to Adobe PDF & the Paper Size to 11x17. It also worked for 36"x48" becuase I created a custom size named "Poster", so I changed the paper size to Poster & it worked!
    I hope this helps someone. I searched for an existing forum on this issue off & on for MONTHS before creating this thread. If anyone has any suggestions why the Adobe PDF tab /PDF Maker wouldn't work, I'd like to know.

  • Acrobat Pro XI PDF Printer を利用したPDF作成でエラーダイアログを表示させない方法はあるか」

    お世話になっております。

  • Acrobat Pro 9 PDF Printer Hangs when printing Test Page (Checking Fonts)

    I have upgraded to CS5 and acrobat pro 9....
    When I print a test page from the PDF printer it starts fine but then hangs when checking fonts?!?!
    I have removed the software and reinstalled twice now and the same occurs...
    Any advice anyone?

    Bernd,
    thanks for the input... It helped a lot!
    I tracked down a few corrupt fonts and now things seem much better but not quite perfect yet....
    Distiller now opens fine but when I ran the test page from the PDF printer I got the follwoing error in the log file:
    Does it give any clues?
    %%[ ProductName: Distiller ]%%
    %%[ Error: typecheck; OffendingCommand: xshow ]%%

  • Why does my Acrobat Pro 9 PDF print driver either lock up or become confused as to where it should store a file when printing a document from within the Firefox browser?

    I use Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.4.5 for creating .pdf files on a Windows XP SP3 platform. Firefox 6.0.2 is my browser of choice. This question only applies to the .pdf printing process. All other printer drivers work fine with this version of Firefox.
    In attempt to save paper, I choose to print most documents in an electronic .pdf format using the PDF print driver and save them to my USB drive. Before upgrading my Firefox version to 6.0.2 this process seemed to work fine but after upgrading the .pdf print process seems to be experiencing problems. This particular printing process will cause Firefox to lock up when the distiller tries to print the file to what I believe is a temporary folder under the Adobe folder. When it does this I am sometimes able to force it to complete the process but frequently it will only produce a log not a .pdf file. On other occasions the distiller will just lock up mid print without producing any kind of error message. In both cases I will frequently have to use Windows Task Manager to break out of the process which then shuts down the Firefox browser. I don't seem to have any problems when I use Internet Explorer to perform the same function. As far as I am aware I am running the most current drivers as Adobe automatically pushes down updates to me as they become available. Any ideas how I can overcome this issue or is it inherent to the new version of Firefox?

    The PDF file itself does not control the "print as image" preference, which should always be turned OFF unless there's a specific need to rasterize the entire page, and is turned off by default in all Acrobat and Adobe Reader installations.
    What's the filetype for the ultralight font and what export setting* are you using in ID? If you're exporting to earlier than PDF1.7, OpenType fonts will be converted and may experience some small changes in shape if their hint definitions aren't done right.
    *As a side note, bear in mind that InDesign does not use any part of Acrobat when exporting PDFs, so questions specific to that stage in the process should be posted to the InDesign forums.

  • Acrobat 9 bug? - Print Pages function does not print all bookmarked pages

    We use the Bookmark Print Pages function to allow for easy printing of sections of large PDFs. All of the pages that should be printed are bookmarked. The bookmarked pages print correctly in Adobe 8, but not in Adobe 9.
    I have put together a javascript workaround, but would prefer a solution that does not require distributing a file to all users.
    I would appreciate any suggestions on other possible workarounds.
    Here is the bug report I submitted to Adobe:
    Concise problem statement: The "Print Pages" function for bookmarks does not print all bookmarked pages in Adobe Reader 9.0 and 9.1. The same bookmarks print properly in Adobe Reader, Standard, and Pro 8.
    Steps to reproduce bug:
    1. Open the Adobe Acrobat SDK JavaScript for Acrobat API Reference PDF (Version 8.1, April 2007) in Adobe Reader 9.0 or 9.1.
    2. View the bookmarks. Right-click on New Features and Changes and choose "Print Pages."
    3. Open the same PDF in Adobe Reader, Standard, or Pro 8. (I used Adobe Professional 8.1.3.)
    4. View the bookmarks. Right-click on New Features and Changes and choose "Print Pages."
    Results and Expected results: Printing from v8 results in 12 pages. Printing from v9 results in 9 pages. Pages 741, 754, and 769 did not print from v9.

    I'm having the same issues.  Using the latest version 9.3.3.  Is this a bug? I tired calling adobe but their CR sounds like 3rd country only.  Anyone can shed a light on this issue?

  • PDF Printer Page Size Limitation

    I have been creating documents in Microsoft Publisher 2007 & have been trying to convert them to PDF via the Acrobat PDF Maker. When I am dealing with 11x17 & Poster size (36"x48"), the PDFMaker gets into the Converting Process (60%) then displays the following option:
    PDF Page Size in Adobe PDF printer is small causing pages to be split.
    Press OK to convert without preserving transparency, bookmarks & links.
    Press Cancel to choose a bigger sheet (at least 17.00 by 11.00 inches)
    I hit cancel & have changed every Page Size option I can find including:
    the Change Conversion Settings, in the Adobe PDF tab in Publisher
    Conversion Settings: (Created custom setting with default page size)
    Printers & Faxes in Control Panel
    Adobe PDF Printer
    Printing Preferences
    Changed default settings & page size
    I even changed the output paper 11x17
    Yet, it never fails to try to convert everything into letter size. It seems as though it won't do anything over Letter size.
    I have Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard & running Windows XP.
    PLEASE HELP!

  • Acrobat X Pro - pdf printer

    hi
    I install on my mac (leopard 10.5.8) Adobe Acrobat X Pro.
    but i haven't any pdf printer in Preferences->Printer
    how I print with acrobat pdf printer as the same on Acrobat 9 Professional?

    The proper method to set up is in the original Document.
    I've just tested this out. It use to be that you could use page setup with Acrobat.
    Since Acrobat 9 the setup menu has been rendered useless, then in Acrobat X it was totally removed.
    I created a test Pdf in Word 2011. I  setup for a 4by6"  Card (like you print Recipes on).
    Then I went to Print Menu and choose PDF > Adobe PDF. Then when I chose location and saved file. Acrobat opened up and the PDF was 4by6" Card format.
    Whatever  WordProcessor you use set page set up there for A4 create your Document choose adobe PDF, under the PDF button in the Print menu. save your PDF document.
    When you open your PDF it will be in the proper format.

  • Acrobat 8 - Adobe PDF Printer hanging when printing

    Hi
    I have an installation of Adobe CS3 Design Standard on a Windows 7 64-bit machine. When attempting to use the 'Adobe PDF' printer from an Adobe application, i.e. Illustrator, Photoshop, the application freezes and the PDF printer does not proceed to convert the document. The job is in the print spooler, however this either sits there with 'error', or 'spooling'.
    This behaviour does not occur when using another application such as Microsoft Word.
    When looking at the printer preferences of the printer, the tab appears to be malformed and incomplete.  (see screenshot)
    There are no options under the 'Adobe PDF Folder' dropdown, apart from LPT1.
    I have tried reinstalling Acrobat from the CS3 DVD, after deleting the printer and driver, however this does not appear to solve the problem.
    Can anyone shed some light on this issue?
    Thanks, Luke.

    Thanks for this, it solved the problem!
    It appears that despite the updater saying there weren't any updates, there clearly were. I'm guessing they've turned off the update servers as it's such an old product.
    For the record, I installed 8.1 and 8.1.1 all the way to 8.1.7 individually.
    Thanks again.
    Luke.

    Solution 3:  I am copying below with notes as to what didn't show up
    Manually install the PDF Printer
    Click Start >  Control Panel > Devices and Printers
    Select Add a printer
    Select Add a local printer
    Check Use an existing port and select Documents\*.pdf (Adobe PDF) from the drop down.  Click Next
    [No such file on 'existing port.' attempted using NITRO pdf which came with this new lenovo machine [but never availbale and not installed --jst recommended, although this file exists  < NitroPDF Port: (local port) > which I attempt]

    Click the Browse… button
    Navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\Acrobat\Xtras\AdobePDF
    Select AdobePDF.inf from the list if using Acrobat Pro, or AdobePDFstd.inf if using Acrobat Std, then click the OK button
    [this files exists]
    You will see many Adobe PDF Converters in the list, however count six down from the top and click Next (you may need to try this numerous times to find the correct Converter from the list that works with your version of Windows)
    [Attempted six down--no dice].
    Name your printer, e.g. Adobe PDF
    Follow the rest of the prompts and your PDF printer should now be installed correctly
    If you are later prompted for the ADPDF9.PPD file, it can be found in the C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\Acrobat\Xtras\AdobePDF\<OS version> folders.
    [Once I hit 'test' print it states  < Windows cannot find 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 11.0\Acrobat\Acrotray.exe'.
    BUT i'm not using Acrobat 11.0!
    Any ideas, o wise ones?
    best,
    skylar1

    Hello All,
    I just figured this out--
    I installed updates in the Help tab, and the files required, including pdf printer were installed.
    Works!
    I realize that this is a gen behind in software but I am running legacy large format printers and the newest is not the best in this application.
    Hope this helps....

  • Acrobat Pro 9 pdf Printer issue

    Hello!  Hope everyone is having a great day!
    I have a small issue with the 9.0 printer.  It is part of my print cue, can print to it, the print dialogue says that the job is completed, but the file never shows up. 
    I am running a MacBook with OSX 10.5.8 and have Acrobat 9 Pro version 9.1.3.
    Any ideas would be helpful.  My apologies if I did not provide enough information to do so!  Cheers.
    Jeremy

    If you have X.5.8.  look here:
    I've blacked out my computer identity. This is based on on my OSX.4.11 Setup.
    In reading up on Snow Leopard I 've read in MacWorld and what was Mac Addict that lots of things have been changed moved around or renamed in Snow Leopard. So Your milage may vary.
    As for Getting back the PDF Printer in Snow Leopard. Because of the new Security system in Snow Leopard, as  the saying goes it ain't going to happen.

  • [Acrobat 8.x] PDF Printer not working

    Hi there,
    I just migrated from Windows XP SP3 to Windows 7. After having installed Acrobat (as part of CS3), I quickly came across the following nasty problem. The PDF Printer worked about once. After that, it became defunct. When starting a print job with PDF Printer, the entire application hangs. For some reason, there is considerable hard drive activity after that, but the application that has issued the print command does not recover (I waited for several minutes).
    I have tried the following solution:
    (1) Auto-Update updated my Acrobat version to 8.1.3
    (2) "Repair Acrobat Installation" from Acrobat Help Menu
    (3) Manually reinstalled PDF Printer
    (4) Removed all PDF Ports and recovered via "Repair Acrobat Installation"
    => no effect, the problem remains.
    I would be very greatful for any suggestions. This problem is driving me nuts! The PDF printer is an important component that just has to work.
    Maniac

    Thanks for the input!
    The upgrade to 8.1.6 did solve the problem. Acrobat still works poorly, but at least the PDF Maker works quite fine.
    Nevertheless, it's really too bad that Adobe requires you to purchase a full (and considerably expensive) upgrade for Win7 support. Adobe 8 is not that old so that it would require updating.

  • What is the Acrobat 7 Adobe PDF printer driver name?

    I can no longer print to my "Adobe PDF" printer.
    I have Acrobat 7.1.0 (as part of Creative Suite 2) on my small travel laptop system running Windows XP Professional, SP3. 
    Recently, if I try to print to a PDF file from Firefox, I get:
          "an unexpected error has occurred" or "an unknown error has occurred while printing".
    I went to the Adobe PDF printer itself and if I try to choose the properties, I get "The Adobe PDF Converter' is not installed on this computer. Then it asks me if I want to install the driver now.  If I say yes, it wants the driver name, which I don't know and don't see obvious candidates.   If I say no, and I see the properties for the PDF printer, it says the driver is "Adobe PDF Converter", but I guess the underlying driver file is missing.
    I found a posting for how to manually reinstall the printer on Acrobat 10, but my directory structure is different and I don't have a file called pdf.inf, so I suspect the driver name is different in Acrobat 7. 
    I can still launch Acrobat 7 just fine, and have tried doing the repair from the help menu twice, and rebooted afterward.  No luck.
    I didn't delete the Adobe PDF printer before the repair.  I was afraid to.
    I could go back to the original CS2 disks, but then I'll lose all the updates I've downloaded and installed over the years.  I don't know if Adobe even has the updates for CS2 online anymore.
    I suspect if I knew the name of the PDF printer driver in Acrobat 7, I may be able to fix it. Even if the file got deleted, I likely have it on an old backup.
    Does anyone know the name of the ".inf" driver file for the Adobe PDF printer in Acrobat7 (CS2)?
    If not, is there something else I can run from the setup files that will reinstall the PDF converter?
    Thanks.
    Cindy

    I cannot confirm, but feel confident that Adobe has the updates available for CS2.
    Reinstall from the disks.
    I just looked through my XP system running CS2; I cannot see an easy way to reinstall the Adobe PDF Printer, but it is already installed there.
