Hi Chris,
Please do the following:
1) Uninstall RXI.
2) Run the cleaner tool from: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
3) Restart the system.
4) Install RXI again\from: http://get.adobe.com/reader/
Now try printing to the new default printer.
Please let us know if that solves your problem.
Thanks,

Ctrl+P usually does the trick... If it's not working for you you'll need to explain what exactly goes wrong. We're not mind-readers and can't help you without more detailed information about your set-up and the nature of the problem.

Hi,
I would suggest you to uninstall Adobe Reader using the cleaner tool and then re-install the latest version.

I installed Adobe Reader X and i can't print PDF's without opening Reader first

Hi, i am using windows XP and i just installed Adobe Reader X onto a workstation within' my office. I use to have Adobe Reader 9 where i could just open a folder with my PDF's. For example, My Documents folder and right click on the PDF i want to print, without opening the file in Adobe Reader first and then clicking print. With Adobe Reader X, i can't do the right click option and print because nothing happens.
Is they an option in Adobe Reader X i need to turn on or off, to get the function of printing by right clicking on the PDF file without opening Reader X to print please ?

Is it happening all the times or happened just in the starting when you hadn't accepted EULA?
Is it still happening after accepting EULA?
Also, can you please tell what printer exactly are you using?

Print as Image changes between Adobe Reader ver7 and ver8+

Hi,
We have customers that upgraded to Adobe Reader ver8+ and are now experiencing printing issues with our printer driver (operating system is Windows XP/Vista). When they use Adobe Reader ver8 and above to print their PDF files, with "Print as Image" option selected, the print output is smaller. It looks like the latest version of Adobe Reader output the images using a square DPI. Our printer (line matrix) does not handle square DPI (for example: printer resolution are 120x48, 120x72, 120x144, and 180x96).
Our printer driver just takes the output from the Microsoft print spooler and just encapsulate it with our printer language. We don't do any image manipulation. So, I would like to know was there a change in the way Adobe Reader version 8 and above create the output image? If so, is there a backward compatibility switch our driver can issue during the printing function?
I tried talking to Adobe Tech support (bronze support), but they only handle end user issues. Is there a tech support option that I can purchase that will allow me to get to the root of this driver compatibility issue? Any suggestion would be appreciated.

Adobe doesn't apparently care. I get this problem all the time on our work network. There's a lot of questions in this forum and elsewhere on the internet.
The best answer I've seen is that there's something wrong with the PDF or you don't have the right font, or you did something wrong, or here try this ridiculously complicated workaround. I wish they would just fix their program!
Suggestions: go through all the "standard" things like updating printer drivers, printing the document as an image, updating Adobe (yeah, like "it works now" is a new feature in the latest version), etc. It's possible that could fix the problem. Otherwise, wait until Adobe releases a version of Reader that doesn't have this issue.

Adobe Reader 9 and printing labels with USPS.

I have read some of the other posts about Adobe Reader 9 and printing labels with USPS. I am running Snow Leopard on my IMac with Adobe reader 9.1.3 and have had no problems only when using Mozilla Firefox 3.5.3 for the Mac. There is, however, an extra step, if I recall (some window asking me to make a selection, which came up after I clicked on the "print and bill" button). But everything worked just fine.

Hi,
Thank you for the quick response. I've done that but the problem persists.
A bit about my computer it's Vista, but the folders are a little weird. Default install directory and common files folders are on a different drive. In addition appdata are also on a different drive. However this should not affect sinve I've already re-installed Adobe Reader multiple times and it used to work just fine.
But perhaps the problem is indeed path related. Anybody with more ideas to share?
Thank you in advance.
Update: When I reinstall Adobe Reader and open the file, the first time I try to install Japanese font it does not end with "registering product" but with something like "removing backup files" (see attachment). If I try to install Japanese font again and again, I will get the "registering product" at the final glimpse of the installation pop-up.

Quick Printing from Outlook 2010sp1 / Adobe reader X and XI

Hey all,
We have a problem with printing multiple PDF attachments from Outlook 2010. When a user wants to print a e-mail with two of more PDF attachments only one attachment gets printed, after that Adobe Reader gives a Error message that the documents cannot be found. I found some "solutions" on the net, but none of them works with the combination of Outlook 2010sp1 and Adobe reader X and XI.
I hope you guys have a sollutions for this, or help me find one. Also if you need more information please ask!
Thanks!

Just a little update:
When I open a e-mail with multiple PDF attachemts, and then use the normal print function it works. All the attachments are getting printed. But when I use the normal Print function from say the inbox. (same like Quick Print) it doenst work.
So I guess there is a diffrence in how Outlook sends the Print and Quick Print command (DDE?) to Adobe Reader when the e-mail is open.

Communication problem with Adobe 9.0 and HP Printer when I scan

I'm having a problem getting a .pdf file to come up when I scan from a HP 5610 All-in-one printer. Have uninstalled and reinstalled HP software three times but when I scan and want a pdf file it won't communicate with Adobe 9.0 reader for some reason. Is there a setting in Adobe reader that's a problem?
Thanks.

Thanks...found out that an HP5610xi All-in-One will not completely communicate with Adobe 9.0 Had to go to Adobe 6.0

Adobe Reader 9.3.1 prints incorrectly in Windows 7 x64 - HELP

Adobe Reader 9.3.1 PDF document pages at half size and rotated 90 degrees. If I set "Print as Image" under the Advanced print options, it does print correctly, although the resolution isn't very good. This happens on several documents (stand alone files and from Internet Explorer both). I am running Windows 7 64 bit.
On my Vista 32 bit system, Adobe Reader 9.3.1 prints the same documents correctly on the same printer.
Has anyone heard of this problem? Is there a solution?

I have some of the same problem
with my Windows 7 64 bit computer. I
get an error when sending a document to
the PDF veiwer and am told to shut down
Adobe Reader. Is there a download to
correct this problem? Adobe Reader 9.3.1
works fine with Windows XP on my 32 bit
computer.

Partial printing only from Adobe Reader via Server 2008 print spooler

Hi there,
We've recently set up a new print server for our school. It's running Windows Server 2008 (not R2) 32 bit. We have 8 printers, which are all HP LaserJet P2035n.
All printing works fine, except for PDF files from Adobe Reader. PDF files from Adobe Reader go through the print server with no visible errors, however they print strangely.
Often there will be a blank page at the start. Generally they will not print all pages (e.g. 4/10 or so) and they will cause the printer to error.
We do not get this problem using other PDF readers or with the Google Chrome PDF plugin.
Could you please provide some troubleshooting steps? Based on elimination, it seems to be something to do with the way Adobe Reader communicates with either the print server or the printer, causing some type of malformed request.
Thanks,
Andrew

In adobe reader, I can't print from different trays?

Using Adobe Reader, I can't print from different trays on my Lexmark x954 printer. I've tried reinstalling the print driver (latest version) and reinstalling Adobe Reader with no luck. I can see the trays and even select them in the print dialog box in adobe but when I print I am unable to print from the correct trays. It always prints from tray 3 of my printer no matter what tray and type of paper I choose in adobe. Any suggestions?
I've also noticed a problem printing through Preview. I can select different trays using preview but the print time is extremely slow. It seems like it has to re-download the pdf page each time it goes to print. So a 100 page print job takes 20-30 minutes to complete which means other have to wait for my job to complete so it really slows our office down.
Thanks for your help. Also, I am using the mountain lion operating system. Thanks again!

Don't know whether it will make any difference, but a new version of Adobe Reader has just been released:
http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/73/adobe-reader (version 11.0.03).

Running Safari 6.0.3 When trying to print files using Adobe Reader 11.0.02, print preview screen is all black. If files are attached to an email, receiver can't open it. It does work OK in Firefox 19.0.2 Any ideas?

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

Century gothic displays in adobe reader 8 and not in 9

Hi
I have created a pdf using adobe livecycle and i have set the address font in my header to Century Gothic. When i view the doc in Adobe reader 8, it shows it exactly the way i want. When i view it in adobe 9, it has changed to arial. Why is this happening? and how can i prevent it from changing when viewed in the different versions of adobe reader?
Also, it doesnt make sense to say that the font is supported in adobe 8 and NOT in 9. Surely capability should be backward compatible?
PLEASE HELP!!!
Fatima

Hi Hitender
The document does not show the correct font in Adobe Reader 9.0. We have now downgraded our adobe reader on the server where we are printing the docs from. We have tried installing the font onto that server but that was also unsuccessful.
Please let me know if you have any advice for my problem.
Thanks
Fatima
