Adobe Reader Print Preview

Hello,
Our buisness program has a built in Fax program that uses Windows Fax and Scan, when I send our priclist to 243 companies each week a print preview from Adobe Reader pops up each time. How can this preview be turned OFF?

That depends upon the fax software, not Reader.

Also check this out. Firefox10 was able to display the pdf document perfectly.
Now goto Firefox options and click print which invokes the printer print view and NOT the Adobe print view.
Also if you click the print preview a blank page is shown.

Adobe Reader Printing Problem

I have a PC with Windows XP SP3. When I try to print a PDF document, I get the following message: "The document could not be printed. There were no pages selected to print." Of course, I had selected the pages to print.
Recently, I had many problems with Adobe Reader 10, so I removed it and reloaded Adobe 9. Today, when this printing problem appeared, I did a restore on my computer, taking it back a few months. I still have the printing problem.
Any idea what's wrong? Any idea how to fix it?

I have Acrobat Pro 9, but the feature I am using is listed under my
printers.
If I go to Print, then in the drop-down list of printers, I have PDF -
which essentially creates a new PDF document. I don't really understand
why it worked, but it did. The Print - PDF is also available to Word,
Publisher, etc.
Hope tis works.

Adobe reader file preview type library reference

Where I will may see adobe reader file preview type library reference?

I would guess that this interface is registered and used by Windows to generate previews for Explorer. It is not supported or documented, but if it does that, it won't have anything to do with text extraction.
Adobe Reader has a supported interface for displaying in a window.
For a text extraction API you'd want Acrobat, which would allow you via VBA to run JavaScript to get text quads.
Note that this is not for server use. If you want server text extraction consider Adobe's PDF iFilter. This is unusual in that it is supported but is not in the SDK; Microsoft define the interfaces to iFilters, not Adobe.
If you have further questions about Acrobat or Reader development, I'd recommend that you post in the Acrobat SDK forum, to reach the right experts.

Adobe Reader Hijacks Preview as Safari's Default PDF Viewer

Installing the latest Adobe Reader causes Preview to be overwritten by Reader as the default PDF reader in Safari. There's a setting in Adobe Reader prefs that should aloow one to change the setting, but it is greyed out. Thanks Adobe! You'll need to go to your HD/Library/Internet Plug-in folder and remove the Adobe plug-ins. Quit and restart Safari, then Preview is default again.

Thanks very much for your post Bruce.
I was sick of adobe reader always bugging me with updates when i didn't use it so i killed it with appzapper thinking that would be that. However the two plug-ins in the library/internet plug-ins folder were still there and instead of defaulting back to preview i just got a message to reinstal adobe.
After finding your post, I deleted the adobe plug-ins and preview is back and hopefully all remnants of adobe reader are gone.
Much appreciated

Adobe Reader - Print Dialoge box is usable

Yesterday I was running Reader ver. 10.1.3 on a Windows 2008 x64 Terminal Server. All users Adobe Reader print dialoge boxes now open up very very large. Any visible font is perhpas 10" tall (see screenshots below). Drop down pick lists don't display text, and neither does any of the buttons (see screenshots below). As long as you just want a standard print, you can press enter to activate the defaulted print button. You can press the ESC key to exit the print dialoge form. Printing is all being done to Networked printers and I get the same screen no matter what printer is set to be the default printer.
Sometimes (rarely) the print dialoge box will display normal size, and it will display the page your going to print, but as per above, there is no text on the buttons or drop down boxes. The sample screenshot below took up my entire 1920x1080 screen and is just a small portion of the dialoge box size. I have to scroll around three screen lengths to get to the other side of the dialoge box. There is no verticle scroll bars, so I can't scroll down to the bootom of the dialoge box. Nor are there any window resize options (see last screenshot below)
Here is a closeup shot of the top LH side of the Dialoge box:
Below is a screenshot of the top RH corner (I had to scroll three window lengths to get to it):
The Word and Excel etc. Print Dialoge boxes are all working ok. I have tested different default printers with the Reader Print Dialoge box window and get the same looking screen.
The first thing I tried was to just reboot the Terminal Server (TS). I was supprised to find that I had the same problem. I tried upgrading to 10.1.4 and rebooted the TS. I still have the same problem. I see that someone else has sort of had a similar issue to mine: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4559861 But don't really see a response on how or if it was resolved.
Anyone have an idea of whats going wrong and how to fix this?
Thanks.

As mentioned above, every now and then people will see a normal sized dialoge box. Here are two examples:

Adobe Reader print box overrides HP print box

Adobe Reader print box overrides HP print capability when I download PDF files. I need this capability to properly use manual duplex printing.
Any fix or workaround for this? Previous versions of Reader did not cause this problem. Adove add-even pr;int function does not work properly for my needs.

Adobe Reader prints incorrectly, OSX Preview prints correctly?!

I was wondering if anyone could help us out with some insights into a problem which occurred recently when printing some large, combined PDFs, some of which ran to several hundreds of pages in length.
The PDFs were combined from three main sources:
PDFs we’d produced ourselves from InDesign 5.5 to “Pass4Press” / PDF 1.4 specifications.
PDFs saved from Microsoft Word 2010 using the “Save as PDF” command.
PDFs supplied by the client - I suspect these were produced either from Microsoft Word or via the “Save as PDF” command on a printer/scanner.
We used an up-to-date postscript driver and printed to something like a Canon 7100 printer using Adobe/Acrobat Reader. The stuff we printed from InDesign was fine (as I expected it to be, this is the spec I send my PDFs to commercial printers with and I’ve never had a problem with it). Sometimes the text from the Word-generated ones would print as a series of boxes and other times the same file would print correctly with no problems (the font used was either Arial or Arial Narrow), whilst the ones from the client would always print incorrectly in places as a series of symbols. I don’t know what font they used (or how it was embedded) but it looked like Arial and the files came from France (we were printing in England) so maybe their font glyphs are different?
Opening up a couple of the files in Illustrator revealed no problems with the font. We could print from Adobe Reader using a slower, rasterized driver (which was sooooooo slow we would have missed the deadline) but the funny thing was if we opened the same files using Mac OSX 10.6’s “Preview” programme and printed via the wickedly-fast postscript driver, everything came out perfectly!
I know that I haven’t provided much in the way of specific, detailed information but would anyone have a general idea of what was going on? I suspect that it was something to do with the fonts not being embedded properly and Preview being more tolerant of this issue than Reader? That said, Adobe Reader is meant to be the blue-ribband application for PDF viewing and printing so presumably it should be more versatile than a scaled-down imitation product which comes free with every Mac? Would anyone be able to suggest a way of heading this off at the pass in the future? Please bear in mind that some of the files were supplied to us by our client, an engineering firm who would see supplying correctly-formatted PDFs as a non-issue, they just hand over whatever comes out of the machine, so ensuring that the PDFs have been encoded correctly at source is not really an option that’s open to us in this case.
As always, thanks in advance for any and all advice offered.

Just as a further note to this, something along similar lines has just happened.
A work collegue printed the PDF located at:
http://marketforce.eu.com/Conferences/nuclearnewbuild12/Brochure/
The text printed largely as a series of "y"s and full stops (periods). I printed the same file to a different machine (same make and model) from both Preview on the Mac and Reader 8 on a Windows XP PC and the result was perfect both times!
Would anyone have any general tips on how to troubleshoot PDFs so we can spot in advance if things like this might happen and also can anyone shed any light on if these kind of problems can sometimes be caused by a printer and/or its driver rather than the PDF itself? I looked at the Preflight options in Acrobat for the first time ever this morning and the range of options contained within seemed a little overwhelming for a newcomer.

Adobe Reader printer output not printing with printer

Hi all,
I've downloaded the current Adobe Reader 9.3 and have not been able to print. It sends the file to my print spooler where I check on it and see that the job is tagged with an error. I've just got the 10.6.3 but this also occurred under 10.6.2 Mac OS. I posted a bug alert to Adobe. My printer is a Canon. I sometimes choose to use Adobe Reader in leu of Preview when filling out a form. Personal choice at this point, but in the past, only Adobe preserved the correct font and all of the form.
Just wondering if anyone else has had this issue.
Not sure if this is a printer driver issue or a output error. But the printer works with everything else.
Linc

I have a similar problem that my mac mini running 10.6.3 with Adobe Reader 9.3.2. I print using a shared printer HP F2280 from iMac running 10.5.8 wireless airport.
When I print PDF from my mac mini, the share printer can only print a few lines and that stop. There is no error in the printer queue. It say accept print file.
I'm using preview to print PDF right now before solution come out.

Why won't adobe reader print a .pdf?

I have worked on this Mac at my job for 3 years. Much of my job is online research, and I frequently print .pdf documents, or "Open .pdf In Preview" and select pages to print.
About 2 weeks ago I found that .pdfs would no longer print or Open In Preview. I can still Select the content and copy it to a Word doc and repair the formatting for printing.
But I would really like to just print the .pdf.
How to find out what's wrong? How to fix it?
I have already re-installed Adobe Reader and downloaded the latest version.
Thank you for any help.
Shayne

Hi Shayne Laughter,
Adobe Reader is for reliably viewing, printing, and annotating PDF documents. It’s the only PDF file viewer that can open and interact with all types of PDF content, including forms and multimedia, hence we cannot print documents to PDF using this.
Also, Preview is a default application in Mac used to view and edit images and PDFs. If you are not able to print documents to PDF then the issue is with Preview and I would suggest you to check with Apple.

Adobe Acrobat Print Preview not supported

I have Adobe Acrobat 8.2.0 and have been having this issue (not really a problem but it bugs me) where when I go to print a PDF and click on preview before sending the document to the printer I always get this message pop up that says "Preview is not supported." I just like to be able to get an idea of what things will look like before potentially wasting paper.
Is this normal and expected or is there something I can do to get print preview to work?

It's normal and expected because Acrobat has a more powerful printing and preview capability than Preview, so running output through Preview would just dumb it down.
If you set up your Page Setup right, the preview in the Acrobat Print dialog (Copies and Pages) is pretty effective for predicting print size and position relative to the true print margins. For color previewing, if you use Advanced/Print Production/Output Preview in Acrobat it, too, blows away the soft proofing in Preview.

Adobe Reader print error

When I try to print some (but not all) pdf documents using Adobe Reader, my printer "stops" and it won't print. I get an error message in my Printer Status box that says "The process "pdffilter" stopped unexpectedly with status 1." I need to delete the job and then "Start Jobs" to print something else.
I am using Reader 7.0.8 and printer is HP Photosmart 8250.
I've tried updating my Reader software and my printer driver without avail.
The same documents will print fine using Preview.
Any ideas how to resolve???
G4 Powerbook Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Here are a couple of longshots to try:
Open FontBook and look for font dupes (they have a bullet by them).
If you find any select them and then choose resolve dupes from the edit menu.
Close Adobe Reader and then select the application in the finder.
Do a Get Info and:
Disable plug-ins—just click the box to remove the checkmark.
You can fairly safely disable every plug-in EXCEPT for the following four:
1. WebLink.acroplugin
2. ImageViewer.acroplugin
3. EScript.acroplugin
4. Search.acroplugin
Lets hope this helps ... Ken
