Adobe Reader 10: How to print a PDF ignoring the red characters?

Adobe Reader 10: I want to print a PDF ignoring the red characters.
I am a school teacher. I would like to print PDF answer key files (answers in red) without the answers for the students to work on. How can I suppress the red characters during print and print only the black characters?

I don't think this is possible with Adobe Reader. You would need a program like Acrobat or Illustrator to hide these text portions.
If this is a one-time task, you could use the 30 day trial of Acrobat: http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-acrobat-xi-pro-standard-reader-direct-download-links.html - make sure you follow the Very Important Instructions on that page.

I have a user on Adobe Reader X. whenever they open a .pdf file, the form fields do not auto-fill until you click in the box. Is there a setting that can be changed to make the form open properly?

Sounds like the form fields were filled in on a Mac using Mac Preview. This cannot be fixed in Reader only Acrobat. Ask the person who filled in the form to redo their work in Adobe Reader.

I just downloaded adobe reader and can't print a pdf file

i just downloaded adobe reader and cannot print a pdf file.

Same or related issue.
After installing latest updates of Mac Mavericks and Adobe Reader, I can't open pdfs downloaded from the web or print pdfs from the web. Using "export" doesn't help. Same with the print/pdf workaround.
I uninstalled/reinstalled Reader. I indicated Adobe Reader as my default opener for pdf-type files. No help.
I'm using Safari.

Adobe reader x how to print a 11x17 at 8.5 x 11 letter size

I keep getting emailed maps in 11x17 size and really need to print the whole document at 8.5 x 11 letter size. I have free Adobe Reader X. Anyone know how I can do this?

I did what you advised, still didn't work - then tried unchecking "choose paper source by pdf, then it worked. Even when choose paper sourse by pdf was checked and the paper size showed it 8.5 x 11 - it did not downsize the print for me to that size. Not sure why? Thank you so much!

Adobe reader crashes when I print a pdf

When I try and print a PDF document, Adobe Reader crashes. The rainbow pinwheel of death comes up. The Force Quit dialogue box says that Adobe reader is not responsive. What do I do?

Thanks. Lots of us on Macs never install Adobe stuff. With Preview you can do a lot of things (like instant alpha, and dragging pages from one pdf to another). Are you also aware that in the Print menu there is a direct Print to PDF option?
Have fun.

How to Print a PDF programmatically without the Adobe Reader Window

Hi,
I'm trying to print a PDF my application. I would prefer to do it as silent as possible - no PrintDialogue | Adobe Reader Window.
Language C#
Adobe Reader 10.0
Here´s some Code:
public static void PrintPDF(string file, string printerName)
Process proc = new Process();
proc.StartInfo.FileName = @"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 10.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe";
proc.StartInfo.Arguments = @" /t /h " + "\"" + file + "\"" + " " + "\"" + printerName + "\"";
proc.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = true;
proc.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = true;
proc.Start();
Thread.Sleep(1000);
proc.WaitForInputIdle();
proc.Kill();
It works, but the Adobe Reader Window is still popping up -> /h (start the reader minimized) does not work.
Is there another way to hide the Window ?
Regards

Hi,
I am developing an application, which have to support a PDF print. My result after searching for the best possibilities is this snippet:
public static void PrintPDF(string path, string printer)
Process process = new Process();
process.StartInfo.FileName = path;
process.StartInfo.Verb = "printto";
process.StartInfo.Arguments = "\"" + printerName + "\"";
process.Start();
// I have to use this in case of Adobe Reader to close the window
process.WaitForInputIdle();
process.Kill();
This is the most generic solution - it prints a pdf unless no matter wich reader is installed.
Only deficit - the Adobe Reader window still pops up. Why it does not behave like it´s alternatives (for example Foxit Reader) and print the PDF without popping up ?
Regards

How to print a pdf file of compounds A3 and A4 with adobe mac

how to print a pdf file of compounds A3 and A4 with adobe mac, windows with the option I choose paper source by PDF page size mac but I can not find it. how to get it thank you

I think if you use the start-command, the execution is asynchronously and you won't get the correct process-id. Try to execute Acorbat directly without the cmd /c start in front of it.

Printing a PDF in Adobe Reader v8 does not print watermark

In our office we have PDFs created with Adobe Acrobat Professional version 7 that have a lighten watermark which say "confidential". These PDF documents print fine with Adobe Reader 7.0.8. Our office has now converted to Adobe Reader 8.1.1. When you open the PDF in Adobe Reader v8.1.1 the watermark displays on the screen but when you print the document the document prints without the watermark.
I have checked the knowledge base and can't find this issue. The document has no trouble printing, it just doesn't display the watermark. I have tested Adobe Reader versions 8.0, 8.1.1 and the new version 8.1.2 all display the watermark when you open the Reader, but none of them print the watermark. I have gone back and verify and the watermark does print on Adobe Reader v7.0.8.
If anyone has a similar issue or solution please let me know.
Thanks,
Mary Mendoza

I have the same problem. The watermark does not print out even though I can see it in the print preview. Anybody...?

We are trying to implement a process so that any document that needs to be printed through our Java application will be printed as PDF using Adobe Reader. For which, We created and execute the below command line to call Adobe Reader and print the PDF on a printer."C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" /T "\\<Application Server>\Report\<TEST.PDF>" "<Printer Name>". Current Situation: The above command line parameter when executed is working as expected in a User's Workspace. When executed in a command line on the Application Server is working as expected. But, the same is not working while executing it from Deployed environment.Software being used: 1. Adobe 11.0 enterprise version. 2. Webshpere Application Server 8.5.5.2. Please let us know if there is a way to enable trace logs in Adobe Reader to further diagnose this issue.

This is the Acrobat.com forum. Your question will have a much better chance being addressed in the Acrobat SDK forum.

Hi,
I would suggest you to uninstall Adobe Reader using the cleaner tool and then re-install the latest version.
Adobe Cleaner Tool:- Download Adobe Reader and Acrobat Cleaner Tool - Adobe Labs.
Latest version of Adobe Reader:- http://get.adobe.com/reader/
If you still experience the same issue, please share the following information:-
- Screenshot of Adobe Reader showing printer options
- Screenshot of Microsoft Word showing printer options

Website pdf won't open with Preview - requires Adobe Reader. How do I force iMac to use Adobe for this particular website?

I need to access a tax form from my state's tax website. The site will not allow Mac Preview to open any pdfs on the site. I already have the latest version of Adobe Reader downloaded on my iMac which is using Mac OS X 10.6.8 The state's support guide says to make certain my internet browser (Safari) is set to open all pdfs with Adobe Reader. How do I do this? Thanks in advance for helping.

I think you solved my problem! Upon following your advice, I first got a message that I had not allowed a connection to the Tax dept computers, which would prevent the file I need to fill out from being e-filed. I proceeded to then open the file at the top of which was a security banner at which I chose the site as safe. I then filled in the first line of the form which autofilled other lines telling me I was connected with the tax site. In a few days when I have the data I need, I will actually attempt to file the return. If there is a problem, I will send another message. Thanks so much for your assistance!

How can I convert .pdf file to .doc using the free adobe reader app? when I try to convert the .pdf file it asks me to sign in. when I click on "sign in", I am taken to a service subscription page. So, no free conversions using free adobe reader app?

As has been mentioned Adobe Reader cannot export PDF page content. Nor can it create PDF or manipulate PDF page content.
What you can do is use one of Adobe's online subscription services. Two provide for PDF to Word export.
There's ExportPDF and PDF Pack.
Be well...

How do I set Adobe Reader XI so that a saved pdf will be saved in the last folder saved?

When I save a group of PDF files, I want them all saved in the same folder. How do I configure so that each fille will be saved in the last folder that was used to save, rather than having to browse for the save folder each time?

I am replying to my own question. I learned that if you right click when trying to open a PDF, you are asked which app you wish to use to open the file. If you click on Get Info, instead of choosing an app, you get this great information box which gives you the option to set Adobe Reader as your default app for PDF files. It even allows you to change all the pdf files you already have to Adobe Files. Yay.

How do i make adobe reader my default to open any pdf file

how do i make adobe reader my default to open any pdf file?

What is your current default? If Adobe Acrobat (X or XI), you can set it in your preferences.
If it's another program, reinstalling or repairing Adobe Reader will set it to the default program.
