Acrobat Pro 8 Print queue error, but pdf is created fine...

I'm running xp pro, and acrobat pro 8, every time I try to print a pdf, I get an error with the print queue although it still makes a pdf every time! I've tried the repair tool in acrobat and also uninstall/reinstall but I get the same deal every time.
Its more an annoyance than anything as I still get the pdf files but I'm thinking something must be wrong to throw up an error every single time!
Any help would be good :)

Alternatively, look at using digital signatures and the security
policies. This method ensures that only the person with the matching
certificate can open the file and have specific options ...
It would involve swapping digital ID files but once set-up, it's very
powerful ... just uses Acrobat 8 and even Reader ..

PDF Virtual Printer Queue has doc print errors but PDF's created

This has probably been answered already somewhere here, but I can't seem to find a current solution.
I am using Windows 7 64bit Pro and Acrobat X Pro. When printing to a PDF from any source - word, excel, email, the PDF is created correctly, but my PDF Printer Queue shows a document print error and leaves the doc in the queue.
This wasn't happening before so I am not sure if it's a known issue that an update has fixed or something else. If there is another thread that has the answer, let me know. Or a link to the fix would be great! Thanks.

Hi, try instead: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/set-default-printer-print-center.html
It works for current OS versions. If other dialogs appear, continue to add the printer.
The printer will be called localhost. Select it to print from eTax and choose the option to " Print to pdf"
Directions previous were to go to the manufacturers site, not the Apple site for the install, but its ok, link above is a better alternative.
Apologies….
Cheers

Acrobat Pro 9 does not open pdf on web

I have just done a clean installation of Win Vista Home Premium, and put CS4 on it. I always throw out a lot of links and programmes that come with a re-install, but may have thrown out too much this time: Acrobat Pro 9.1.3 opens pdf's just fine as long as they are on my hard disk. It does not open pdf files on web sites.
I remember trying to delete the link to Acrobat.com that has nestled itself at the top of "All Programs". Its icon has dissapeared, but otherwise it seems ok. It seems unlikely that that has anything to do with my not being able to open pdf's on the web, but I mention it anyway.
Anybody any ideas and remedies? Thanks.

I just realised the same pdf on the web is opened properly by Acrobat Pro when the site is open in IE. It does not work in Firefox 3.5.2, however.
I pointed in Firefox Tools > Options > Applications the application to open pdf's to Acrobat 9.1 . It does work now, but in a rather weird fashion: Acrobat seems to sort of swirl into my Firefox window. Never mind, the pdf's do open.

Ever since I downloaded Acrobat Pro 11.0.09, the PDF Maker and Save As PDF have not worked, but instead cause MS Word 2013 to crash.

OK I will try to elaborate this time with pictures so it is clear what I am asking and what the issue I am facing is.
The specific option I want to be able to use from within the Adobe Acrobat Pro user interface is
File\Create\Batch Create Multiple Files
When I select that menu item a floating tool bar thing pops up that I can drag and drop files onto.
If I drag excel or powerpoint documents onto it and press OK it converts them fine. If I drag MS word documents into it the documents appear in the list but when I click OK it says no files processed.
In the process of troubleshooting I also tried using the Add Files button. That is when I discovered that MS word documents (*.doc, *.docx) are not showing up in the list of supported file types.
The same thing happens when I try converting a single file using the File\Create\Create PDF From File menu item. Just like above the MS word documents do not show up in the list of supported file types.
Looking in my registry entries as suggested by the article linked to by one of the posters above I can see both *.doc and *.docx types registered in the correct place.
Unless I can use the batch convert command as intended by the time my trial period runs out in 13 days I cannot justify buying this software. If converting the documents one at a time was acceptable I would just use Save As PDF from within MS Word which works just fine. I need the batch convert function so I can convert my whole library of word documents to PDF at once.
Any further assistance greatly appreciated!

Gray

It's all about setting up what ever version of windows you have running on your pc to share the printer. If you still get stuck post in a windows forum for help.

Acrobat pro 8 scanner error 200010

Acrobat pro 8 scanner error 200010. I am using a Canon all in one fax scanner laser printer. Acrobat prints correct but does not seem to recognize scanner. Using MAC Pro Intel / 9gb ram with OSX 10.6.8 and Canon Imageclass MF4350 d printer/fax/copier/scanner device. Acrobat shows Canon MF 4350 USB as only device in scan menu. I believe it should show Canon MF 4350 FAX but no option to change device in scan menu. Help would be appreciated

Does Acrobat Pro read the content in pdf file and transforms it?

Does Acrobat Pro read the content in pdf file and transforms it to xls file without the need for much changes or manual work?

Acrobat X (Standard and Pro) will save tabular data to XLS or XLSX format, provided it can recognize the table as being a table. If the PDF has missing or incorrect structure tags, Acrobat will try to guess the table layout by the position of text and lines on the page - this works well for basic formatting but if the table has complex styling, spanned cells etc. it can lead to problems.
Acrobat X will even attempt to export a table within a scanned document, by applying OCR during the export stage - though again this relies on the table being visually identified.
See http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobatpro/pdf-to-word-excel-converter.html and this article on how to extract one table from a larger document.

Possibility to execute Acrobat Pro's "Combine files into PDF" function from within SAP?

Good day.
Presently, a company uses Acrobat Pro to manually combine files such as *.pdf, *.jpg, *.doc, which have been downloaded from SAP's Document Management System, into one pdf file. I would like to know if it is possible to automatically execute Acrobat Pro's "Combine files into PDF" function from within SAP (ECC 6.0) application system. I'm wondering if this could be achieved from a program via OLE (Object Linking and Embedding) or RFC (remote function call).
Thanks in advance for your thoughts and inputs.

Yes, you can combine PDF files via IAC/COM methods.

Adobe Acrobat Pro X will not open PDFs

Hello,
My Adobe Acrobat Pro X will not open PDFs. This happens twice a month and is becoming extremely irritating. I have tried uninstalling, reinstalling, repairing and a system restore. What can I do to make this problem go away?
Thank you.

To check that it is an Acrobat problem, open Acrobat from the programs list and try to open a PDF from the file menu. I suspect this will work fine from what I read into your post. I suspect that somehow your OS is changing file associations. In that case, right click on a PDF and select Open With>Select Default Program and then select Acrobat. Be sure the check box for default program has been checked.

Acrobat Pro IX License was activated and was working fine. Then it stop working application would not launch. I

My Acrobat Pro IX license was activated and was working fine. Then the application stop launching after an update was by Adobe. After a while I uninstalled the application successfully, logged on to my adobe account, viewed past purchases, re-downloaded the application successfully, activated the license and entered my serial number. The next day I get a pop up message that my trial licenses is set to expire in 29 days. I clicked again to activate my license and this time, the message stated that the license for serial number has been revoked.
How do I resolve this matter?

InDesign PDF printing with errors but only in browser

Hello,
I've created a PDF poster and uploaded it to dropbox and put a link to it on my website. I want people to be able to open the PDF in the browser and print it immediately without having to download it. Unfortunately when the link to the PDF is clicked on and the poster printed, some of the objects within the PDF have moved - some items near the top seem to have shifted downwards while others have stayed where they are. However when I print the file direct from Adobe reader, this doesn't happen, it prints normally.
This is what the poster should look like, and what it looks like when printed from Adobe reader:
This is what the poster looks like when its printed from a browser:
As you can see something strange has happened to some of the objects near the top of the page, they appear to have been 'pushed down' in some way. We've tried saving the PDF as various different versions and with a variety of different settings, and although occasionally this might change the look of the printed document - the errant objects may move to different locations, this never solves the problem.
N.B. I've had the same problem when printing from some PDF readers other than Adobe reader.
Any help would be much appreciated, thank you for your time.

Thank you for responding!
The browser doesn't open the reader, it just opens the PDF in a new window. This is the case in all browsers i've tried. But I should add that when the PDF first opens in this new window, it appears error free. It is only when print is clicked, and the print preview appears that the errors show up.
In response to your points about transparency (which I don't know about) and an interactive button, the PDF was created in InDesign just using what I assume where the default settings. So if I were to recreate the PDF in InDesign, with these complex functions disable would this solve the problem? If so could you tell me how to do that?
Thanks very much for your help,

Acrobat Pro - Printing Problems

I've just started having problems printing from Acrobat Pro 9.0. I've heard there might be a patch or something to solve this issue, but can't find anything. I realize that this is an old program, but don't have the funds to upgrade, so have to stick with what I have. The problem occurs every time I try and print a PDF that was created in Illustrator or InDesign (it says that there are no pages selected or it just funnels through like it's going to print, but nothing happens and it disappears from the print queue. Occasionally I have a problem printing PDF's that were created from other sources (or downloaded from the web) - most of the time these take at least 15 minutes or so to print each page.
This just started happening. I don't have problem printing from other programs, just Acrobat Pro. Any help that anyone can send would be greatly appreciated!!

Thank you for responding to all of my questions and helping with this problem. I'm sorry, but I'm not sure how to apply these. I've opened up the link and it wants me to connect to a server…I selected guest. It doesn't connect to anything. I'm not exactly sure what I am supposed to be doing with this.

Acrobat Pro 9 - Conversion Error from Word 2007

I do not want to hijack the thread or question raised by another poster a short time ago but I cannot figure out how to correct the below.
Office 2007 fully updated
Vista 32-bit
Acrobat Pro 9.3.4
I have to provide data for someone else to assemble and publish and have been attempting to convert some Word documents nearly full of tables to press quality .pdf. Whenever I try the conversion, Acrobat Pro seems to re-center the tables both horizontally and vertically forcing the misalignment of the rows of data although any repeating headers remain properly placed. I can even see the table shift downward slightly when using the Acrobat conversion macro within Word. It may be adjusting the margins instead of re-centering.
I have tried using the macro within Word 2007, Create PDF within Acrobat Pro and Print to PDF as well as tweaking some of the settings such as lowering resolution and turned off unused settings such as enable fast web view, etc. The glitch also occurs with High Quality Print. Standard used to work but after the update to 9.3.4 that conversion shows the same problem. I even tried saving in Word 97-2003 format with the same results.
The documents in question do have custom page sizes and margins but do not use any abnormal fonts. I have tried changing the margins but the conversion to .pdf still changes the information and/or magins as described above. Row height seems to be correctly maintained.
I realize that a knowledgeable user can export the .pdf back into Word or other program but am trying to make it more difficult for someone to edit information which has always had extremely negative consequences in terms of data organization, layout and even integrity.
There has to be something really silly that I am overlooking.
Thank You

Thanks Bill.
Sorry for the delay, Verizon dumped its DSL +service to Frontier so we had one of the bi-weekly extended outages.
No changes occurred when I changed the default printer to Adobe PDF. All of my printers are new enough so that they can handle the current margins so I do not think that they is a problem there but changing the default as suggested by you and Michael eliminates that as the source.
I had previously been able to convert using the built-in converter in Word but was unsure whether or not the result would be press quality and was unable to find this information in my searches. I retested this and conversion using Word’s built-in converter works without a problem.
The conversion using Combine Miles > Merge Into A Single PDF also works without a problem with the highest quality setting. It took several hours to run but I guess or assume that it was because of the number of tags as this is a quick setting and therefore I could not disable the tagging which is not needed in this case.
I was also able to convert the same file which had been saved from Word 2007 into the 1997-2003 format as described above but the same problem came up when using the Acrobat macro and Create PDF from File. I had even created a modified press quality settings to modify settings like disabling autorotate, Object Level Compression, changed the binding option, lowered resolution, bumping the format up to PDF 1.7, etc., but all produce the same result. I have tried changing the document margins in case the conversion process rounded these but all produce the same artifact/problem except when I use Combine Files or the converter built into Word.
