Adobe Reader 9.4.6: how to skip print dialog

Hello,
in our company we implement a freestanding self-services kiosk project.
The kiosk uses a browser, which links with internal application server, which contains the required information.
There's also an option to print some documents via Adobe ActiveX PlugIn. Explored some versions of Adobe Reader, we considered that the most appropriate is version 9.4.6. We strongly needed to set Adobe Reader so that the only clickable button in upper toolbar is “Print” button, and also side navigation panel is hidden (because pdf file opens in the frame within the kiosk system page). We've succeeded with this issue.
But now we experience one more problem. When the user clicks the "Print" button, the print dialog appears. Is it possible to choose default printing settings and start printing avoiding print dialog by some standard options?
Or maybe you can provide us an event, which initiates Adobe print dialog, so that we can use it to fire the OK within java script.
Best regards
  Anton.

Looks like you need a silent print, take a look at:

The steps are for Acrobat. You'll need to see if they work with Reader.

  • Print PDF file in Adobe Reader from Galaxy Tab 2 to HP Printer?

    Can someone please tell me an easy way to do this?  I've tried Cloud Print and Printer Share and neither one are very user friendly.  When I open my PDF in Adobe Reader on my tablet 2, the only printer listed is the Cloud Print.  This is a pain in the butt.  It really shouldn't be this hard. 

    did you get an answer to this one?  I am having the same problem.

  • Adobe Reader 11.0.07 defaults to duplex printing. Is there a way to set the default to leave that "print to both sides of the page" box unchecked?

    Adobe Reader 11.0.07 defaults to duplex printing. Is there a way to set the default to leave that "print to both sides of the page" box unchecked?
    I am working on an end-user's computer, I just updated to the newest Adobe Reader and they don't ever print duplex. I want to be able to have the "print to both sides" box unchecked on the print dialog by default. Is there a way to do this? I have the printer settings all set to 1-sided but it is adobe print dialog settings that keep messing it up.
    Thanks!

    Hi John,
    Have you tried repairing Reader and checked?
    Does this issue occur only on this machine or are you facing the issue with other computers as well which have updated to Reader 11.0.10?

  • Adobe Reader does not work-how to use adobe reader on Lion

    I was trying to print an international label on eBay via Adobe Reader, and was very dissapointed and shocked that it does not work on Lion.
    I was so happy that I figured out how to use adobe reader on Lion, and hope I can help anyone else who is frusterated too.
    Step 1. Download Google Chrome
    Step 2. Printe your international label, or whatever you need to do that uses Adobe Reader

    Thanks Shelly! I too was having trouble and thought it was something wrong with my Mac. I still have a big though. When I try to print the saved pdf file, I get a pop-up that says "The document could not be printed. There are no selected pages to print" even though I am looking at the complete doc. It's there and in my print prompt "all pages" are selected to print. The way I got around this, is by emailing the pdf file to a gmail address and viewing the attachment via Google Docs. It loads perfectly and prints without a problem.

  • Adobe Reader And SharePoint Workflow: How To?

    Hi all,
    We are using SharePoint 2010 as our collaboration portal.
    Our Marketing department wants to use feedback workflows on PDF documents.
    The PDF documents can be commented and all reviewers should be able to do that in turn or parallel.
    We can start the workflow on the PDF document and users can edit the file by entering comments.
    However, as soon as someone has entered comments into the PDF file the corresponding SharePoint workflow tasks are cancelled?!
    It appears that when commented, Adobe Reader does not change the exisiting document, but deletes the old one (hence the cancellation of the workflow tasks by SharePoint) and consolidates the comments into a physical new document?!
    Does anyone know how to fix this and what is best practice in these scenario's?
    Much obliged,
    Vladja

    Hi SAMSUNG,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to get the full path of a document in a list workflow.
    You can set the variable to the Enconded Absolute URL of the document. The screenshot is my testing. In my testing (in the red area), when the title of a document was equal to the tile of the current item, set a variable to the Enconded Absolute URL of the
    document. I used ‘Log to history list’ to check the value of the variable in Workflow History .
    I hope this helps.
    Thanks,

  • Adobe Reader 8.1.1 -   How to Uninstall ?

    I recently downloaded Adobe 8.1.1 and have not been able to open pdf files on other browsers. I have tried to change(repair)the download, then tried removing the download hoping that re-installing would help. However,when I hit Start, go to Settings, then Control Panel, then Add / Remove programs, and press "Change" I get the following message:
    "The patch package could not be opened. Verify that the patch package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer patch package."
    When I press "Remove" the following message appears:
    "This patch package could not be opened. Verify that the patch package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer patch package."
    I got the free download of 8.1.1 from the adobe site, how do I "verify that the patch package exists or if it's valid" ?

    Augustine,
    Adobe Reader 8.1.1 has been "CORRUPTED"

    When page opens, scroll down to "Download the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility package now. (You can read instructions or not)
    When "File Download-Security Warning" box appears "click" RUN
    After download completes--Open "Programs" on your computer and look for "WINDOWS INSTALL CLEANUP"--Click to open
    When box opens look for 8.1.1 (or) Adobe 8.1.1 and "click" (HIGHLIGHT)WARNING--DO NOT HIGHLIGHT ANY OTHER PROGRAM!!!!

    My computer is infected with Adware.  I deleted Adobe Reader thinking it might have the adware in it.  Since the problem started the same day as Adobe Reader was installed.  Reader wasn't the problem.  So how do I get Reader reinstalled?
    And if anyone knows how to delete WebProtect ads, please let me know.  It's actually getting worse.

    Hi frostedinsilver,
    I'm sorry to hear that. What a hassle.
    You can download Reader from www.adobe.com/products/reader.html.

  • My Adobe Reader toolbar that allows you to save, print, email, etc. the document in the browser window/tab has disappeared and I want to know how to get it back.

    I was unable to view PDF files in Firefox and would get a blank screen telling me I needed to re-install Adobe. I did that and was still unable to view PDF files in the browser window or tab.
    Now that I have upgraded to the most current version of Firefox I no longer have the Adobe Reader toolbar that used to be a toolbar above a PDF file when viewing in the browser window or tab. I don't have the printer icon, floppy disc icon, email icon, page arrows to scroll up or down, the percentage for size, etc. Is there a way to be able to have this toolbar again?

    I do not use Adobe Reader, but use Foxit Reader in its place, and had the same problem. In Foxit Reader, I right-clicked in the area at the top where you would expect the toolbar to be (it was a blank area immediately above the displayed PDF file), and chose which toolbars to display and that has "stuck" and I still see the Foxit toolbars when I load a PDF file after system shutdown overnight. The only problem is that the area where you would expect the toolbars is still there and blank, but the toolbars that I selected appear immediately below that blank area. See if that works in Adobe Reader for you.

  • Is it legal to burn the adobe reader software if so how do i?

    My grandfather has a computer but no internet access. He uses his computer solely for geneology, word processing, and organizational purposes. I recently found some historic public domain documents that i know that he would be very interested in; however, they are in pdf form and for him to view the documents he would have to have a pdf reader and as i said earlier he can't simply download the software. If anyone has any advice both my grandfather and myself would greatly appreciate. I only want to download and burn the reader software and possibly an older version because i am not sure his system can handle the specified requirements for 9.0.
    Many thanks,
    Coryishappy

    What OS is he running?
    You can get Reader 7 at ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/7x/7.1.0/enu/AdbeRdr710_en_US.exe but if we know the OS, we can suggest the best version to run.
    Oh and yes, for what you are using it for, it's legal.

  • Adobe Reader 9.1.3 fr does not print text, only graphix

    I recently had a problem with windows live hotmail, removed the recently installed adobe reader usin windows removing program to test the problem with no change then reinstalled adobe reader, since i connot print any pdf  file, only the graphix is printed. I have : windows family vista french on a dell 530.

    To clarify my previous post, I had already seen http://forums.adobe.com/message/1770581 .  I mentioned in my post that I get the message "Preview not supported" when I click the Preview button from the print dialog in Adobe Reader, and thus concluded that the "Preview" workaround discussed in that thread wasn't helping me.
    However, re-reading that post, they were talking about using the Mac "Preview" application to print the pdf file.  Like every other application (other than Reader) I have tried, the Mac's Preview application prints just fine, and is another workaround.
    The only program that doesn't print for me is Adobe Reader.
    BTW, I also have an Intel chip in my MacBook Pro.
    Re-installing Leopard, as suggested by one post in that thread, is not a reasonable option for this problem.
    In fact, since Preview allows me to view and print .pdf's , my solution is probably just going to be not to use Adobe Reader.  In fact, had I not been new to the Mac, I would have known that I didn't need Adobe Reader at all.
    However, I'm glad this happened, in the sense that I use CS3 on the PC, and had considered moving to CS4 on the Mac.  However, since Adobe apparently hasn't figured out how to get printing to work on a Mac from their flagship product (!), I will be sure to do a lot of testing of CS4 before considering buying the upgrade.
