Acrobat Pro 9.5.4 Update causes PDF to print more like a web page

Something changed from 9.5.3 to 9.5.4 such that PDFs opened within a browser (FireFox) now print more like a web page.  This has caused several issues.
1. Printing now uses the header/footer printing preferences of the browser.  All PDF's I print from within the browser print with the URL in the upper right, time/date in the lower right and all the other header/footer preferences in the browser.  This was never the case before.
2. Font sizes and text location are different.  We print checks, invoices from PDF's generated within our business system.  These are now misaligned compared to what they have been because of this change. 
It's possible this is related to a browser update but I haven't pinned this down yet.  I'm using Firefox 19.0, Windows 7, 32 bit. 
Any insights are appreciated.

Hi,
This is not happening because of Acrobat update but the reason for this change is that Firefox 19.0 has introduced  its own Javascript PDF viewer.
You can change the settings in browser to use Acrobat plugin for viewing PDF files. Go to Options->Application to chnage the settings, please see attached screenshot for more details.
Hope this solves your problem.
Thanks.

  • Acrobat Pro XI, Server 2012 r2 Remote Desktop, cannot print until server reboot, No Pages Selected

    Ever since we migrated to terminal services (remote desktop) this problem has plagued us.
    We are a terminal services environment with 25 users.
    Our version of Adobe is 11.0.10
    I've believe I have traced the issue to temp files in \users\username\appdata\local\temp\XX
    There are [email protected] files that the system locks.
    Once those files are written out and the server locks them down the user cannot print .pdf files any longer.
    ALL OTHER APPLICATIONS WORK PERFECTLY!
    The only way to clear the situation is to reboot the server (not optimal).
    And even then the problem reappears within a day.
    I have read many different versions of this problem and tried many different solutions.
    I have tried having the users go the advanced tab when printing and choose "print as image"
    FAIL!
    I have put a acroct.ini with the following parameters in the windows directory
    [WinFntSvr]
    TTToSysPrintDisabled=1
    T1ToTTDisabled=1
    FAIL!
    I have tried to remove Microsoft security updates related to this issue and 3rd party fonts.
    FAIL!
    I've tried the "Disable Protected Mode at Startup"
    FAIL!
    I have rebuilt our print server with the latest drivers.
    FAIL!
    Since we deal with thousands of .pdf files on a daily basis this has become CRITICAL!
    Please Help!

  • Reinstalled Acrobat Pro 8.1.6 won't let me print web pages to PDFs

    I'm really ticked at Adobe's "help" in updating the program only to cause a lot of misery.  I'd read Acrobat had a security update, and got a constant reminder from Adobe update to install the available update.  I've been using Acrobat Pro 8.1.6 with absolutely no problems printing web pages to PDFs.  I installed the 8.1.7 update which immediately disabled Acrobat completely.  So I wasted a lot of time uninstalling Acrobat and reinstalling sequential versions to get back to 8.1.6.  Now I can't print web pages to a PDF.
    I had NOT done anything else to installed programs in the meantime, except that probably Norton has automatically updated antivirus files in the background.  I don't have any problems using Acrobat to open and print an existing PDF, or to create new PDFs from my scanner.  I can do a hardcopy print of a webpage by selecting my Brother printer.  From Word 2002 and Excel 2002, I can create a PDF by "printing" to Acrobat as usual.   The only problem is creating a PDF by "printing" a webpage by selecting Acrobat as the device from the list of available printers.  This problem happens both with Firefox and with Internet Explorer 7.
    I have Windows XP Pro SP3.  I did the most recent Windows Tuesday security update several days before messing around with Acrobat and did not have any problems printing PDF files from Firefox or IE7.  So, it seems like it's clearly an Adobe Acrobat problem.  I get the small box saying "Preparing to Print" which goes nowhere and then I have to use the Task Manager to get out of the loop.  That closes Firefox, and when I reopen Firefox, the same webpage comes up.

  • I' m trying to install Acrobat Pro 10.1.8 Update. I'm getting the Error "Istallation fehlgeschlagen" without Error code  what can I do?

    Hi,
    I' m trying to install Acrobat Pro 10.1.8 Update. I'm getting the Error "Istallation fehlgeschlagen" without Error code . What can I do? I purchased CS5.1

    You can get the updates for the MAC from Adobe - Acrobat : For Macintosh, but apparently you already found that. Two possibilities that I can think of: 1. You have anti-virus enabled and that is causing the failure or 2. You are trying to install an update and skipped ones before it. If you start with the latest update, the download indicates the previous version required for the update. It looks like 10.1.12 can install over any previous version, so I would go for broke and install the latest.

  • How do I add a functional "submit button" to a pdf form in Adobe Acrobat Pro XI ? I created the pdf form in Adobe Forms Central.

    How do I add a functional "submit button" to a pdf form in Adobe Acrobat Pro XI ? I created the pdf form in Adobe Forms Central. It's for an online Diet Questionnaire. After people complete the form I'd like them to click "SUBMIT" and the completed form will be emailed to me.

    This can be a bit confusing because Acrobat 11 comes with the desktop app that allows you to create simple PDF forms without having a FormsCentral account. Some people find this helpful, but you need to understand that when you generate the PDF form, it is Reader-enabled by Acrobat. In order to edit the form further in Acrobat, you have to create a non-enabled copy of the form. You do this in Acrobat by opening the form and selecting: File > Save a Copy
    and opening the copy. It is not opened automatically.
    You can now add a button and set it up to submit by email, either using a "Submit a form" action or the submitForm JavaScript method. You can set it up to include just the form data or the entire PDF, and will want to use a mailto type URL. Submitting the form to the FormsCentral server has a number of important advantages over email (much more reliable, more secure, etc.), so you might want to consider it.
    If the form needs to be saved with Reader versions prior to 11, then you will need to Reader-enable the document. In Acrobat 11 you do this by selecting: File > Save As Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools

  • Acrobat Pro 9 - Disable thumbnail preview in PDF file icons on Desktop

    After upgrading to Acrobat Pro 9, the file icons of PDF files on my Windows 7  desktop changed to showing a thumbnail preview. I want to get the standard PDF file icon back for all PDF files. Can someone please tell me how?
    Thanks.

    Did you ever find an answer for this??? I had the same issue and was searching for an answer. I saw this and since I fixed mine I thought I would tell you what I did. Also, in case someone else finds this and needs an answer.
    Opened Windows Explorer -> Tools -> Folder Options
    Go to the View tab
    Check "Always show icons, never thumbnails"
    Hit Apply
    All your PDF files on your desktop should now show with the generic PDF icon.
    Reverse this to get the preview icon "thumbnails".

    After you remove acrobat, Try booting your mahcine in Safe Boot mode first and then enable the root user and try to install Acrobat 9 followed by its updates.

  • Problem creating a PDF from the "print view" of a web page

    When creating a PDF from the "print view" of a web page, the features in the print dialog box overlap. When the PDF is created, the words are garbled. e.g. words apppear as jzhhhxxf or zxihcj.

    Use a job settings that embeds the fonts. If you look at the PDF, the font properties probably do not look correct and don't include embedded fonts. Also, set the printer to Adobe PDF before you try to do a print, so that the web page can try to properly adjust to the printer.
    Why not just try opening the web site directly in Acrobat?

  • My iMac is connected to a Brother printer. I have Snow Leopard 10.7.3 As of yesterday, when I try to print a PDF it prints as a blank black page. Does anyone know how to correct this so that the PDF will print as I see it on screen?

    My iMac is connected to a Brother printer. I have Snow Leopard 10.7.3 As of yesterday, when I try to print a PDF it prints as a blank black page. Does anyone know how to correct this so that the PDF will print as I see it on screen?

    If you are running Mac OS X 10.7.3 then you have Lion installed, not Snow Leopard. It's probably not important to this discussion, but something you should be aware of.
    What application are you printing the PDF files from? Have you tried opening the PDF file using the Preview application that can be found in the Applications folder? Does the issue still occur? Have you tried other PDF files from a different source?
    Another poster in the following discussion thread reported that this method resolved their black blank PDF issue when viewing (and presumably printing) PDF files from Safari.

    This solved my question by mcbuffy  on Apr 20, 2012 11:29 AM 
    There's a solution if you want to see the PDF inside Safari's window :
    Go to the folder : Your Hard Drive / Library / Internet Plug-ins.
    If you see a file with PDF in its name drag it to the trash.
    Quit and restart Safari to test with a PDF.
    If it works you can empty the trash.

    There is one, it's called "System Preferences".  And for items like the "Dock", you can use google to find the defaults code (i.e. 2D flat Dock for Mac OS X)
    Most (not all) appearance issues can be adjusted to your liking.
    With a little work, you'll have your iMac looking like 2005 in no time!

  • Acrobat Pro 9.4.5 Updated, now won't launch program or open pdfs

    Downloaded and updated 9.4.5 when prompted. Ran update but think there may have been a glitch. I haven't been able to launch the application or open pdf documents since. (OSX 10.6.8).
    Was going to uninstall but can't find Acrobat Pro Unistall app. on my computer (Own CS5 Design Premium, and have searched and found the other application uninstallers. See attachment)
    1) Is there some sort of patch or update for this? If not, is there some sort of support where I can contact Adobe directly about this issue? (I already filed a bug report).
    2) Where can I download Acrobat Pro 9.? uninstaller? (I still have my old Mac from CS4, should I try using that???)
    Upgrading to CS5.5 and or AcrobatX is not an option at this time. Please advise.

    Thanks for your response Steve.
    Don't quite know what happened. I'm technically challenged. I just inserted the disks and double clicked to "install". I have two Macs, one at work and one at home. The one at home which was installed after the one at work looks correct. I am copying that and bringing my application disks to work to uninstall/reinstall.
    Main question, is there a problem with Acrobat Pro 9.4.5? Do you suggest I uninstall, re-install this program?
    TIA MrsMelbyElvis

  • Acrobat 9.1.2 New Update Causes Print Error

    operating sys: Win XP
    ver: Acrobat 9.1.2
    I'm using a Master file on the printer and marrying my data file to that master.
    Ever since I received the new update, any time I print a file over 35 pgs. from Adobe Acrobat it prints out about 30 pgs. correctly and on the next print it spits out the Master file but for the data it prints out the following error:
    "ERROR: undefined
    OFFENDING COMMAND: limitcheck
    STACK:
    32
    -dictionary-"
    I've tried printing to different printers and on different projects but as soon as throw that .pdf into an InDesign document and print from the InDesign program the project prints out correctly.
    Any suggests as to how to fix this? OR Will this be fixed in the newest update?

    Windows 7 64 Pro, Thunderbird 7.0 (updated recently) : the "publish form" is completely bugged.
    Before reading solutions here : can't find mail program error messages (can't find my adress book in TB)
    After applying the fix : set the by default programm forced on Thunderbird -> http://forums.adobe.com/message/3610561#3610561
    Acrobat "resolves mail adress", then the submit button make a small dialog box appear (can't read anything in it). Nothing happens.
    I can click and re-click several times, same "empty" or "not displaying a message long enough" dialog box keeps appearing. No forms sent whatsoever.
    This is critical. I'm an ACI. I must set up a special training for one of our customers, about delivering forms. Ok, that issue is on my personnal computer, so far.
    I may need to fix the install, or reinstall whatsoever, BUT : can I really come with that kind of answers in a classroom ?
    "-Oh, and now publish the form, by clicking here..."
    "-Oh, that doesn't work ? Hmmm, it's a known issue without any solution. Uninstall everything and reinstall everything, that should work (or not). Yeah, I know, it's Acrobat...
    and no, sorry, I don't have time to uninstall an reinstall everything on all the computers in the classroom, sorry, it's the end of the day. Bye ! What ? You, students, think this
    training was in fact useless ? Hm, you kinda of right...we spent a whole day setting forms, discussed how Acrobat is a cool software, and in the end our forms are good to be dropped to the trashcan."
    May we have a answer from the Acrobat Team here ?
