Adobe Acrobat 8 printing blurred

Whenever I am emailed an Adobe pdf document and I try to print it the print is unreadable. I have two printers attached to computer, one HP and one canon and same result. Screen shot looks fine and I can save as TIFF and print fine. It is only if I try to print from Adobe that I have problem. Also, have sent same pdf to other computers and it prints with no problems. I assume that I have some wrong setting on my version of Adobe 8 Professional. How do I fix it? [email protected]

Hi,
1 Have the fonts been embedded when the pdf was made?
2. Fontexplorer caused too many problems when I upgraded to 10.5.2 with quark 7.0 so I had to disgard it.
3. Are you printing through a postscript printer? or not.
I have some fonts that will print through a kinolta minolta fine but come out as you described when put through a OKi 5600.
Can you highlight all your text in reader 8>0 and convert to outlines. It might tell you fonts not embedded, not sure if you can do this with reader as I use Professional with pitstop.

  • Adobe Acrobat 9 - Print certain webpage as PDF file but some of its contents were corrupted

    Print certain webpage as PDF file but some of its contents were corrupted as non-readable alphanumeric.
    Preview of the PDF file shown OK but when printed, its contents were corrupted.
    Adobe Acrobat 9 Professional reinstalled but problem persists.

    It is Acrobat printing to a PDF file using Acrobat 9 Professional because I have no printer attached.
    The preview before printing showed every words OK but when printed to the PDF file, some alphabets and numerics were corrupted and the words were NOT readable.

  • Text unreadable when using adobe acrobat to print pdf

    When printing to a pdf with adobe acrobat professional version 9 all i get is lots of symbols in place of the original text. I have tried printing preview, converting webpage to pdf etc but when converted to a pdf it just displays symbols, however when copying the text and pasting it here for example the text is readable.  Is there anyway i can fix this or i have a missed something in the settings of adobe acrobat?

    Generally, if you have the fonts on your system, then the fonts should properly display. To embed the fonts on your system, you would again have to have the fonts on your system. It sounds like some fonts are being used that you do not have. You might try downloading the fonts you think might be the problem. Be careful, you have to have the precise font, not one that sounds correct. Even sometimes fonts with the same name are not really compatible. You should be able to select the text touch up tool (new name in AA X) and select some of the text and see what the font name is. Then you know what you should be looking for.

  • Adobe acrobat only prints first page with airport express

    I got my printer (HP PSC1315) to work with airport express using one of the solutions described in these forums. Printing is fine except when trying to print pdf files with adobe acrobat, in which case only the first page of the document prints. Preview has no trouble printing pdfs. Anyone else experience this? Is there a solution?
    Thanks,
    Kevin
    PS- my version of acrobat is acrobat pro 7.0.5

    Figured it out.
    Adobe Acrobat/Reader is apparently very picky about printer drivers.
    I had to have the users delete their mapped network printers from their Printers & Faxes window.
    Then I opened the registry and went to:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Environments\Windows NT x86\Drivers\Version-3
    I deleted the drivers for the printer(s) the customer had mapped (e.g. Xerox 6360DN, .. etc.)
    I rebooted the computer
    I had the customer logon and remap their printer.
    That resolved the issue.

  • Adobe Acrobat webpage Printing spins/"not responding" in FF 3.6 latest release - please fix it

    FF 3.6 (latest) Print web page to Adobe Acrobat v.9.02 spins and not responding. Earlier version of FF was ok w/Acrobat. I have the Acrobat Plug-ins in FF 3.6. Annoying to see FF 3.6 not ready for prime-time as prior versions. How can I go-back to FF 3.5? Thank you.

    Hi, sorry it took me so long to reply. I finally had some time to troubleshoot the issue, and fortunately I found what was wrong .
    But first, I must say that I am deeply ashamed, and I apologize to for coming here and blaming Skype, because it turns out the fault is completely mine. The problem was that a while back, a tech buddy of mine sent me his Windows "hosts" files (the hosts file allows a simple way to block unwanted and dangerous websites, as well as advertisements from loading on your computer). Most of the time, I do pay attention when I compile my hosts file, but this time I assumed my buddy's list of blocked websites was reasonable.
    Turns out, he had the following entries in there (without the quotation marks):
    "skypeassets.com"
    "secure.skypeassets.com"
    That means, any web page that needed to access these was blocked from loading. As a result, this is what broke the Skype Credit page.
    I attached a screenshot to show what the Buy Skype Credit page looks like when it is blocked, so that way, if anyone has this issue and wonders why it's not working, check your hosts file (found in "C:\WINDOWS\System32\drivers\etc").
    The Buy Skype Credit page now seems to work fine in all of my browsers (Firefox 32, Firefox 24, Opera 12/11/10, and IE8 ). I also tested IE6 just for giggles, but it gives a "Page Cannot be Displayed" error. This is very common with IE6, though. I'm just stating this in case anyone is still running that dinosaur browser (please don't, it's not safe or compatible).
    Thanks, and I hope this was somewhat helpful .

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro Printing Problem

    Hello everyone I have Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.5 and when I print a file I have some issue with the design elements.  I have a american flag and has some areas which expand.  Below is a picture of what the file should look like:
    No what happens is the file prints like this:
    Please not the expanded white area in between the red stripes on the american flag.  This may vary from file to file, but I cannot have this since these will be sent out to a customer for approval.  I have tried Adobe Illustrator, and have no problem with the file.  I have saving a PDF from Adobe Illustrator and then printing in Adobe Acrobat Pro for proper color.  Any suggestions would be great!  I can provide more information also.  Thanks!

    Without actually having the digital assets to look at, it is a real cr*pshoot to guess as to what is going on here.
    What is the pseudo-American flag in term of object types? Vector, raster, what? Perhaps you can point us to the objects to examine?

  • Adobe Acrobat XI printed to blank PDF from Brava Reader v7.3 on a paper size 100mm x 3000mm

    I am on Adobe Acrobat XI and am having trouble printing to PDF from Brava Reader v7.3 to a paper size 100mm x 3000mm. The output is a blank PDF to the given paper size.  I was able to print with image from Brava Reader v7.2.  However, when I installed a freeware PDF995, it allows me to print to this paper size (albeit with only 600DPI - too low resolution).  What is the problem with Adobe Acrobat?  Please help?

    Is AcroTray running in the background? Can you print to file using the Adobe PDF printer and open the file in Distiller to complete the conversion to PDF?

  • Adobe Acrobat Distiller Prints every second page blank

    Running Windows Vista with Adobe Acrobat Pro 8.1. When the user converts web base html document ( IE 8) to PDF in Legal format we end up with every second page bank or the footer over printing. We have changed the header/footer settings in Acrobat and under print properties to no avail. Other cleared cache reset IE users have exactly the same Vista image and install of Acrobat Pro and it is not an issue.
    Any ideas on this thanks!

    When printing deselect "Choose paper source by PDF page size"

  • Force the "Fit To Printable Area" Option in Adobe Acrobat [Reader] Print Dialog

    Hi,
    I was wondering if there is a way to force Adobe Arcobat Reader to  always use the "Fit To Printable Area" Option in the print dialog?
    If this is possible, how can I achieve it?
    Thanks...

    If you only have Reader (that is different from Acrobat, the full product), then your only options would be under the preferences in Reader. If they are not there, then the answer is no. To really get a better idea, ask in the Reader forum. If you have Acrobat, then provide the version to get more specific help.

  • Adobe Acrobat 7 printer not recognized.

    Need to be able to print to PDF.  Used this feature in Win XP just fine.  New computer with Win 8 does not recognize the PDF printer.  No download available from Adobe website for the distiller (yes, there is an Adobe Distiller "server" but this will be discontinued in 2013 so why would I bother?).  Tried "dmcmahon" solution to manually install the printer but my computer DOES NOT SHOW "Documents\*.pdf" in the ports.  I am unable to "create" this port.  Did I pay for useless software or is there a fix that won't cost me more money?

    Umm, you paid once 8 years and hope to maintain this through eternity? No offense, but you need to take a different view on such things. I'm sure in teh meantime you have updated your Office software more often... Yes, it's simply not compatible and all the tricks in teh world won't make it work. If you just want to "print" PDfs, there's enough cheap alternatives or even free ones like GhostScript. Otherwise simply get a new version of Acrobat.

  • Adobe Acrobat standard printing problems

    I use a program that most of my printable items are on legal paper. I
    print these to letter size pdf files. As of today, each time I clicke print and change to
    letter size and print, it defaults back to legal size and not all of my page prints.
    I am using Adobe 7.0 standard. Please help!!!

    Enter the printer properties and set the page size. If you want it to be the default, you will need to set it in the printer itself (start menu) and not in the application. The latter will reset when ever you change printers or restart the application.

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro failed to print pdf file

    I downloaded adobe acrobat pro and started the 30 trial version just a few minutes ago.
    I could open files through adobe acrobat and convert word files to pdf, but when i tried converting a publisher file it could not go through. An error popped up which read "Adobe PDF printer failed to print pdf file".
    The publisher file I am hoping to convert to pdf is a 21 page panorama article. It contains lots of images and a variety of font types.
    I do not know other alternatives for solving this issue.
    Your help will be very much appreciated.
    Thank you!
