Adobe Acrobat X Pro not printing correctly

Having issues with printing through Adobe Acrobat X Pro. For some reason, sometimes when i am printing pdfs, they will come out looking different from what is on screen. It looks as though it is compressing the pdf to a smaller size, although the images and fonts are the same size. It's basically changing the spacing on the paper. One of the documents is a fill in form for customers so it looks very strange that all the lines are spaced differently when the document is set up properly. The other weird thing is that it doesn't do it every time. It's hit or miss. Printing from the same HP LaserJet Pro 500 and haven't touched a single setting on the printer or in Acrobat. Any ideas?

I don't think it's page scaling. Here's the settings below. It's not scaling it down proportionally. The document has about 1.5 inches of space at the bottom
and when printed sometimes there is 3 inches of space and it isn't all of the line spacing that is decreased, only some of them. That's the strage part. It doesn'ty alter the size of the whole document, just random parts of it. I will probably switch the auto portrait/landscape option, but that shouldn't affect this.

  • Adobe Acrobat XI Pro not working (at all) following update

    I have been have issues with my Adobe Acrobat XI Pro for a few weeks now.  It stopped allowing me to view, create and print pdfs a few weeks ago.  As I teach part time online at a university- I commonly use pdf's to provide information to my students.  I also use pdf's to transfer data back and for from my work computer - for my full time job - to my home computer and back again.  Not having this availability is really hindering my work.
    My computer runs on Windows 7 with a 64 bit operating system.  Up until a few weeks ago I had no problems.  I'm thinking an update may have gone through that caused the issues.
    In order to reload my full program I had to completely reformat one of my drives which I had remnants of an old adobe version on it- unfortunately, I did not realize that outlook was still pointing to this drive so I lost a lot of data in the long run- needless to say this adobe issue is has been more than just a nuisance to me.
    Once the drive was clean- I was able to reload my software for Adobe XI Pro. It worked perfectly after I loaded it.  At least I was able to breath a sigh of relief.  The next day (yesterday) I was informed that some security updates were needed on the program- considering the age of my disks- It seemed plausible and I received the updates.  This evening, as I was setting up my course for winter semester- I tried to open a pdf- and low and behold- I am back where I was- I can't do anything again.  What is going on here?  I need this program to work- yesterday!  Actually I needed it weeks ago when I started realizing I had issues.
    There has to be a fix out there for this problem- and I can't be the only one with this problem.  I would appreciate any suggestions that anyone has!
    Thank you!

    Bill-
    Thanks for the suggestion- but unfortunately this doesn't work- the reason being is that "Repair" is not option.
    I took a snapshot and attached it of what is available for me when I click on Adobe and as you can see- Repair is not an option.
    I'm getting to the point of frustration- I will probably uninstall adobe again and refuse to get any updates for it.  I honestly do not know what else to do.
    Without adobe I can't post assignments for my college students to my website.  Winter term starts tomorrow and I am very much behind schedule because of this problem.
    I can't be the only person having this issue.
    Again- I do appreciate the suggestion.  Wish it would have worked.

  • Adobe Acrobat X Pro Not Working, InDesign is Finicky

    I purchased CS6 a little while ago and now Adobe Acrobat X Pro is not working at all.  This is a major problem because I cannot access PDF files, which is the file type I use most.  Also, InDesign doesn't save my files correctly and sometimes just shuts down without notice.  I use those two programs the most so I'm not too sure what problems the other programs potentially have.  This same problem happened to my co-worker and she was emailed new download codes and now CS6 works perfectly for her.

  • How to setup a four page PDF in Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro to print only one of four pages?

    Hello,
    I have a request from a end-user to setup a four page PDF in Adobe Acroat 9 PDF to only allow printing of one specific page of the four page PDF.
    The end-user will abe able to view the four pages in the PDF - however - the PDF would only allow printing of one page.  The PDF would need to be pre-set for the end-user.  Is there a setting Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro to allow this type of specific pre-set printing.
    I appreciate your help.  I hope to hear from you soon.

    No, Acrobat can't do that.

  • Acrobat 7 Pro not Printing Some Layers

    Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me with an issue I'm having printing layered acrobat files.  Many of my layers are not printing for some reason.  This only happens on page 1 of a two page pdf.  This is happening on Acrobat 7 pro on both Windows XP and Windows 7.  It happens on several computers but for some strange reason it behaves on a third computer.
    Thanks in advance, Stephen

    That's a guaranteed sign of a conflict between the Print Driver for your Printer and the Version of Acrobat you have.
    First upgrade to the very latest version of Acrobat you can for the version you have.
    Then go to to Printer website and the the very latest Driver they have.
    I'll will almost bet a wooden nickel that you have a Hewlett-Packard Printer.
    Adobe and Hewlett-Packard have had a known for years love/hate, yin/yang relationship. Every time Adobe would make a small change to Acrobat code. It would bust HP's Print Driver code. Usually it showed up as diagonal lines from one corner to the other. The only work around is Print as image. (looks like an old time TV that has the Horizontal hold out of adjustment.) as of Lat through Acrobat 8 and 9 they've buried the hatchet apparently.

  • My adobe acrobat forms do not load correctly. I have uptodate version of that software.

    I am an immigration attorney and have an online immigration program I use daily. Since the last upgrade of Firefox, the immigration forms (adobe acrobat) for my clients do not load correctly. I get a message that the forms may not display correctly with an option to open with a different viewer. The form opens correctly if I choose this option, but the form does not allow me to add and save information to the client's file so it is of no use to me. if this cannot be corrected I will stop using Firefox.

    hello, firefox 19 has introduced its own integrated pdf viewer - if you want to switch back to the plugin you've used before to view pdfs just go to firefox options > applications & define the default action for the ''portable document format (pdf)''.

  • Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Not Installing

    When I click on the shortcut to Acrobat 9 Pro, the program says it is preparing to install.  This program was installed with CS4.  At any rate, if I let it continue to install, the install fails with a message that it cannot access C:\Config.msi\48b6b5d.rbf.  That file doesn't exist, or at least I cannot see it.
    I have tried to reinstall from my CS4 disk with the same result.
    Any help for this issue?

    To all:
    Thanks for your help on this.  Here is where I stand right now.  I stopped clicking on the icon pinned to my taskbar, the one that always starts the install process, and double clicked on the .exe in My Computer.  It started 9 Pro without a hitch.  I then unpinned the icon on the taskbar and repinned the icon from the .exe in My Computer.  I clicked on this and it started the install once again.  I got rid of the pinned icon again and pinned the .exe to the start menu.   This works.  Bizarre.

  • Adobe acrobat 9 pro not displaying jpegs on ipad/ ipod touch

    Hello,
    I am sure that this question came up in the pass. After using the "Document" , "Reduce file size" say to be compatible with
    Acrobat 8  then jpg are not showing on ipad/ touch.
    Has anybody experience this?
    Thank you in advance
    Carlos

    The problem is with Apple's Preview which is what you need to use to view PDF's. There is no Adobe product for that yet.
    You may want to ask around in the Apple forums to see if there is a setting you can change.

  • Adobe Acrobat XI will not print to pdf. Error message says no pages selected.

    When I try to print a document created with Acrobat XI (recently updated), I get an error message telling me that no pages were selected. On the print window the "All" radio button is selected but the others are grayed out and not selectable. This was not a problem before I upgraded to XI.

    Hi marsha's angels,
    Please see No pages selected printing error (Printing & Prepress).
    If the solutions listed there don't do the trick, please let us know. It'll help us narrow down the problem if you can let us know what operating system you have, and whether the printing error is specific to one file, or occurs with any file that you try to print.
    Best,
    Sara

  • Trying to instal trial version of Adobe Acrobat XI Pro

    By mistake, I downloaded the trail version of regular Adobe Acrobat XI Pro not the student rate.  I tried to download the student trial Adobe Acrobat XI Pro and it is telling me that the same versin already exists. I ask to replace it, but give me an eroor again. how could I install the student trial version since I already paid for it and would like to use it immediately? 

    Hi Haregua,
    Would you mind providing more detail? You mention the 'Trial' version of Acrobat XI Pro. It is free for 30 days and does not ask you to pay anything unless you decide to after the end of 30 days.
    At the end of the trial period you are welcome to purchase the student version.
    Let me know if this helps!
    Kind regards, Stacy

  • Adobe Acrobat Professional 9.4 - Printing in color won't work

    Hello,
    So what I've done so far:
    Checked the printer's settings
    Checked the Color management features of Adobe Acrobat and made sure they are set to color. 
    Every setting is set to color that I could find.
    Adobe Acrobat Professional is not printing in color, other Windows applications are. I checked the printer's default options as well as prior to printing, the "current" settings.  The PDF has color.  Any ideas why the pdf won't print in color?
    Thanks for all and any replies.
