Acrobat Reader XI for print-ready PDF

Can I use Adobe Reader XI to construct a print-ready PDF file with all text outlined in a CMYK format?

Other than reading and printing PDF, Adobe Reader allows only limited operations on PDF files including annotating and filling out forms.
You cannot create or “construct” a PDF file with the free Reader. And for that matter, even with Acrobat, the facilities for PDF creation, manipulation, preflight, etc. are done in conjunction with whatever layout / illustration / image editing software you have which normally initially creates the PDF file.

PS:   “Outlining text” is not considered best or even acceptable practice for high quality printing.

    I have a macbook pro w/OS V10.9.5;  I've downloaded acrobat reader XI for mac (I've also installed Micrsort office XI for mac).  PDF files won't open for reading;  videos of granddaughter from daughter's iphone won't play...two separate problems.  Help!  Not very learned about computer semantics and processing functions.

  • How can I get Acrobat Reader X to send my pdf to the printer?

    My pdf just looks at me while I push all of the buttons, file menus and keyboard shortcuts associated with printing and it does nothing. No dialog box, no nothing. All three of my printers work and i've tried them all. It just doesn't do anything. Any suggestions? I really need help here.

  • I am trying to create a print ready PDF from a word file with unacceptable results.

    I am trying to create a print ready PDF from a word file with unacceptable results.
    The word file has a trim size of 6” x 9”. It has been set to mirror margins with the inner, top and bottom margins set to 0.75”, the outer margin is set to 0.5” and the gutter to 0.14”.
    It doesn’t matter if I create the PDF from inside Word, or open Acrobat Pro 11.0.9 and click Create From File, while the resulting document size is correct and the odd numbered pages reflect the correct margins, the even numbered pages do not. This results in some text near the outer margin, as well as the page numbers being omitted.
    Does anyone know how to correct this?
    I just noticed that some of the odd numbered pages' text is also cropped. Apparently Acrobat is refusing to set side margins to smaller than 1" (@ 3cm).

    I'm away from my printer, so I'll try it later. Even so, the proposed test is irrelevant. I operate a small publishing house and am trying to upload certain novels to Ingram, the largest book distributor in the world. The specifications I've set are the specifications they've asked for. Since they've said that the results I'm obtaining are unacceptable, and since they demand submission in PDF form, this renders Acrobat Pro for Mac completely unacceptable for anyone in the publication industry. As far as I can tell, Adobe has a serious bug here that it needs to fix—and at once.

  • Adobe Acrobat Reader's slow printing

    I had this same problem with Tiger when I first got a printer server for my printer (HP Laserjet 1200) but I fixed it by selecting another driver. Basically what happens is that takes like 5 minutes to print the first page, and after the first page it stops and waits a few minutes to print the next page. This only happens for Adobe Acrobat Reader but it prints like normal on Preview and Office. I've tired selecting other drivers, another protocols (Appletalk, IP, Windows), removing and adding the printer again, updating and downgrading drivers, but nothing seems to work.
    My little brother (on a iMac 20" Intel Core 2 Duo and Leopard) also has the same problem.
    Does anyone else have the same problem or knows how to fix this?

    Adobe indicates that Adobe Reader 8.1.1 requires an update to be fully compatible with OS X 10.5. They are estimating the update will be ready in January, 2008. See http://www.adobe.com/go/leopardfaq They do not indicate what conflicts there are.

  • Acrobat 9pro won't print to PDF

    I am using Acrobat 9pro on my Windows XP x64 computer.  When I use Acrobat and try to print to PDF I get the error messages "The document could not be printed." and "There were no pages selected to print."  I can, however, print to PDF from other applications such as Word.  This problem started suddenly a few months ago after having used the application fine for a year or two.  The technical support person told me they wouldn't help me unless I paid $35 to upgrade to Acrobat 10!  I'm at a loss.

    I'm having this problem too. Acrobat 9.5.3 running on Win 7 x64. After updating Reader form X to XI, Acrobat stopped printing .
    I've tried everything: repairing installation, complete installation, removing all the package, removing reader and acrobat, update printers driver, reinstall printers... nothing worked.
    Now the only way I have to print is using Reader, that works properly.
    This are the dialog boxes coming up: "Document can't be printed" "There were no selected pages to print". I can't have access to the printer setup window too, I guess this is connected to the same issue.
    Thank you for your help

  • Problem with saving InDesign newsletter to a print ready PDF in CS6

    I am using a PC and created a 4 page newsletter in InDesign, CS6.  I have made this newsletter over and over in previous version of CS products and never had a problem.  But with CS6, I cannot get it to save as a print-ready PDF with the bleeds and markups the printer needs. 
    I have the Document Setup set to a bleed of 0.25 all around.  I have tried Printing to PDF, Exporting, and Print Booklet.  Printing to PDF doesn't show the bleeds and markups.  Exporting doesn't show the bleeds and markups.  Print Booklet only shows the bleeds and markups if I shrink the file down with a Scale to Fit...which won't work for the printer.  I have tried everything thing I can think of, tried changing all kinds of printer settings...I seriously have no idea why this isn't working.
    Any suggestions?

    Well, the obvious thing is to make sure you've got "Use Document Bleed Settings" checked in the export dialog AND that you've got trim marks turned on. YOu should save a custom preset to do this along with the other settings your printer requires.

  • Making document into a print ready pdf

    Hi there,
    I am trialing In Design, but I don't know if it's the program I need.  I have a manuscript saved to my computer as both a Word document and an ordinary pdf.  What do I need to do in order to get the document print ready for digital printing?  Any help very much appreciated, thanks!

    Thanks Bob,
    My book has been professionally edited and was supposed to come back to me in print ready pdf format ready for digital printing.  The printers are telling me that the format needs to be changed and the professional I used isn't interested in talking about it. The document is also in Word format.

  • Firefox 4.0 support for printing embedded PDF files in iFrames via JavaScript

    I recently upgraded to Firefox 4.0 and can no longer print embedded PDF documents contained in an iFrame.
    My company's web application has several pages which load PDF files from a Servlet into an iFrame. The pages in question all have "Print" buttons which when clicked executes a JavaScript function to obtain reference to the iframe containing the PDF, place it into focus() (e.g., frames['pdfdoc'].focus();), and invoke print() (e.g., frames['pdfdoc'].print();). There are no errors, or exceptions caught when the JavaScript function is invoked, but the "Print" button is no longer operational.
    Does Firefox 4.0 no longer support iFrames? The issue goes away if I revert back to ver 3.6.16

    I have same issue for printing embedded PDF files in iFrames via JavaScript in Firefox 5.0.
    In previous versions it was working fine. But not in Firefox 4.0/5.0.
    Is there any solution for this problem?

  • InDesign Book Project...some images/graphics not appearing in print-ready PDF

    Some images/graphics not appearing in print-ready PDF. Why? and how to fix.
    The images are linked.

    That didn't work, but i copied images from other parts of my document that did work and pasted/resized to replace images that didn't import and that seemed to work.
    still wish i could figure out why it happens in the first place so i don't have to do this other process.

  • From PSD to Illustrator to PRINT READY PDF getting blurry

    Hello Experts,
    I got a problem about converting my illustrator file to print ready pdf's. Basically i did my design in Illustrator but some of the graphic elements in my design are in PSD format, i just imported it to illustrator using place command and even embedded it to the main illustrator file, I got not problem with the resolution 'coz i set it to 300dpi CYMK. But the problem occurs when i print it to PDF because those images from psd file i imported are getting blurry, no matter how i set the settings to its maximum i still got those result over and over again. If anyone got a solution to this problem it might a good help to anyone not only me who is experiencing this problem.
    Thanks,
    erick

    Thanks Mylenium, i finally figured it out now how to tweak those blurry stuff. First i tried to set the bicubic downsampling to its maximum pixels per inch and secondly i set the  bicubic downsampling off, both settings just works fine. Thanks again. This is a great help.

  • Acrobat Reader DC for Android &Javascripts in form cells

    Acrobat Reader DC for Android is not taking in consideration most of the Javascripts in form cells ( scripts were all produced in Acrobat XI) Worked fine in Reader 11.7.2 pre-DC for Android... Do you have any suggestions? he issue seems to be fairly general, since only my most simple script for adding times together is working, none of the others, no matter what they do...
    Sample already provided in one of my prev. posts, although the issue was different.
    Regards: Robert Bartok

    Hi Mevish,
    I had this issue earlier also with Acrobat Reader 11.7.2 on Lollipop 5.02
    but after a system component update the issue "sorted itself out"... right
    now I tried to run this on a Galaxy s6 Android 5.02, Acrobat DC fails, and
    at the same time, on the same phone Acrobat 11.7.2 (pre DC) succeeds. This
    is the case also with my other forms.
    Thanks for getting back to me. I'll try to get my hands on a 5.1 v.
    Android.
    Regards: Robert

  • Adobe Acrobat xi pro for mac (trial) PDF Printer Problem

    I have just installed Adobe Acrobat xi pro for mac (trial) but it did not install a PDF printer,hence when I use other software such as Word etc I cannot find the PDF printer. Has anyone got a fix for this issue
    Thanks

    Hi Sailesh,
    If you're running Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) or 10.7 (Lion), Adobe PDF is replaced.
    See the following blog posting:

  • Did Adobe Acrobat/reader stop providing browser integrated PDF viewing(addin) for Internet Explorer?

    Did Adobe acrobat and reader stop providing browser integrated PDF viewing capability for Internet Explorer?
    Hi, I have been trying to view PDF's directly on my browser (Internet Explorer 9). We used to be able to have this available. To be honest last configuration that did work was Internet Explorer 8 with Adobe Acrobat 7. But I recently tried with Intenet Explorer 9 with Adobe Acrobat X and did not work as expected (I tried to activate the add in for Adobe but the adobe addin for PDF did not show up) I have the following questions:
    1) Do you still provide PDF's viewing capabilties on Internet Explorer?
    2) If yes: Is there a propper Add-in we (users) are able to install for Internet Explorer?
    3) if yes: Do we require to have Adobe Acrobat to have this capability? (this was my experience with IE8 and Adobe Acrobat 7)
    Additional Info:
    There seems to be an addin for Chrome wich works as expected (opens PDF in browser) to this current date. This does not happen on IE.
    Thanks in advance.

    Are you using the 64-bit edition of Internet Explorer?
    The Adobe Reader/Acrobat plugin is 32-bit, and will not work on a 64-bit browser.
