Print PDF document with printer's name and date/time of print

Hi,
I'm pretty new to this...
I have a PDF document and when I print it, I want the printer's name and the date/time of print to be showed on the printer's output.
I have several printers (some local and some on network) and don't necessarly use the default one. I would like the name of the printer used, to be printed on the document.
With var h = this.getField("Printer"); h.value = app.printerNames; I'm able to get the list of all printers available but I just need the one used.
For the date/time, using var f = this.getField("Today"); f.value = util.printd("mmm/d/yyyy", new Date()); gives me the date/time of when the document is open, not when the document is printed. (or maybe I'm missing something?)
I guess the date/time issue is not the major one as there is usually not much difference between the time you open the document and the time you print it.
I'm more interested in the printer's name.
I use Acrobat Pro 9 to edit my PDF document.
Can anyone help me please?
Thanks!

This project was left aside for a while... but it's now finished!
Thank you for the answers. It was helpful.
Here is a step-by-step of what I did (using Adobe Acrobat 9.5.1):
Open PDF document in Acrobat
Select Forms -> Add or Edit Fields
Add two text fields: one called "Today" for the date and one called "Printer" for the printer name
Close the form editing
Select Advanced -> Document Processing -> Set Document Actions...
Then select Document Will Print and Edit
Paste the following code:
var f = this.getField("Today"); f.value = util.printd("dd mmm yyyy - HH:MM", new Date());
var pp = this.getPrintParams();
this.getField("Printer").value = pp.printerName;
Save your PDF
Enjoy!
The date and printer name field will be automatically updated when you print the document!

Pdf files print with horizontal and vertical lines

All of a sudden, today, when I print pdf files, they print with horizontal and vertical lines. I thaught it was the computer or printer. So I printed from another computer on the network, and printed to a different printer with the same result. It is not just that one pdf file either, I have tried multiple files. HELP. Does anyone have any ideas?

It is not clear how you are creating the files. It appears that they were created by Distiller from PS files that were created in some way. I also noted that you are using AA8.1.0. You may want to try to update (do all the updates in order) as a possible fix. It may be in the creation process also. Several packages will split large graphics into parts and create the image. I think this is a characteristic of OFFICE 2007 (docx) files - but I am not sure yet. Tell us how you created the files - step by step, including the scan.
If you have the original documents, why not simply print to the Adobe PDF printer. The result would be smaller and a lot cleaner.

PRINTER USER NAME AND PASSWORD

Pproduct: HP Photosmart Premium c309a OS: Windows 7 Error Message: Need printer's User Name and Password
Trying to print from my iPhone I am asked for printer User Name and Password. Where do I find them?

I checked the link, I only see B210a, C310a, C510a printers but not C309a. But at least now you know which printers would be capable of eprint feature.
Kawaii would mean cute (in Japanese language)

Printing document name and date with document

hi all.
former pc user here.
is there a way to automatically print the name of a document and the time it was printed on documents that I print on the mac?
how does this work?
can i set it globally by printer driver?
can i set it globally by software?
or can i only set it by manually doing this on each document?
thanks

How to print file name and date on document

How can we print the file name and date, like in the old days, on a document as a header or footer?

Not the print dialog for iWork but in the app itself. Here is Pages:

Printing FILE NAME and DATE PRINTED?

when i was on a mac i used to be able to have a default in the printer dialog so that every page printed showed the file name and the data printed. i would like to do this in the mac but i am guessing that this has to be done in either the specialized software dialog box or perhaps in a mac dialog box?
in any event, can anyone help me figure out where i might find a place to do this? i haveadobe acrobat but i wold also like to do it in something like Preview as well.
TIA

if i have documents coming that i print for a project and these are quite naturally coming from different software it i have no way now of being able to FIND this file in my computer when i am looking at it.
Consider using Find from the File menu or Spotlight to search for the document. In one of your previous posts, you stated that you name documents with a date and name. Then perhaps search for the name. Also, with your method of naming documents, if the document is a letter, wouldn't the date on the letter and the person to whom the letter is addressed to give clues to the filename and thus finding it on your computer?
this is a major organizational issue over here and customizing a template for all my various software should be unnecessary IMHO.
I do not know how many documents you deal with but I do know that there a many organizations that deal with billions of documents. In addition, if you share documents with others or others with you, there is not a filenaming method that works for everyone. People adapt to each other. A date in a filename could have several forms such as month-date-year or year-month-date, two digits or four digits for year and so on and so forth.
Are you saying it IS necessary to have this dual file type that has a Pages document which then prints a PDF?
No. Please re-read what I wrote and the Pages Help Center articles.
also, is there in fact a way to save a PDF back out as a Pages document?
Yes, re-read what I wrote (that which you quoted).
"Acrobat has the capability to save a PDF in other formats such as Microsoft Word, which can be opened in Pages. That said IMO, a separate Pages document for each "custom" letter/report would not be necessary."
alternatively i guess i could create a Pages TEMPLATE - that has a DATE in the header that automatically updates .../but/ i am realizing that this has the unfortunate consequence of having the DATE updated if i open the Pages document again
But that is what you stated you wanted because
...and try to remember to SAVE AS this document with another name with the original FILE NAME but a NEW DATE. this does not always work and sometimes i write over the original accidentally.
anyway, maybe the answer here is to create a Template for any new document type and simply use this template any time i need to create a PDF and then not save or delete the original Pages document but this seems a bit hairy and dangerous in terms of possibly losing a file if i forget to print to PDF or something.
You have redundant backups, yes?
It seems that your understanding of a template is different from what it actually is, its purpose and its use. If you have not already done so, try using one of the included Pages templates to create a document that you would reuse to get a better understanding of how it works and to help determine your workflow. What you wrote in the last post seems to be a lot of what ifs but not hands on experience with the software itself. My response was based on my experience of using many types of software and in particular to your questions, Pages and Acrobat. Perhaps you will find better responses in the Pages forum and for Acrobat there is a forum at the Adobe web site.
is there a lock file functionality in Pages in Mountain Lion or was this in Lion?!
Perhaps reviewing the tutorials for Pages or searching with Google would help answer many of your questions.

Word document pdf printing with vertical and horizontal pages

I have a Word document that has both vertical and horizontal formatted pages. When I print to PDF, the I get a new pdf file whenever a page orientation change is found. pages 1 to 7 are vertical, 8 to 12 are horizontal and 13 to 20 are vertical again. If I print to a file named "out_to_PDF" I get 3 files named "out_to_PDF", "out_to_PDF2" and "out_to_PDF3", the first one with pages 1 to 7, the second one with pages 8 to 12 and the third one with the remaining pages. Is there a way to get only one file with all the pages?
I know I can merge the files later. This file with 20 pages is no problem. I have several 70+ page docs, with multiple changes between horizontal and vertical that will result in 20 or more separate pdf files.
Any pointers?

Word renders print jobs that change the orientation as separate print jobs. So, each print job becomes its own PDF.
You can make an Automator workflow to combine PDFs. I’m not sure how it decides the order it combines them, so you’d have to experiment.
This is built as an Application where you’d drop all of the PDFs onto the App icon and it will open the combined PDF where you can edit, name, and save.

Printing Company Name and Contact Name on Labels

Does anyone know how to print BOTH the company name and contact name on the label in address book? I have read the "fixes" but they won't work for me .. I have a 10,000 person mailing list ... so I can't hand fix each one. Will this problem with address book be fixed in Leopard?
THANK YOU FOR ANY AND ALL HELP IN THIS MATTER.

Welcome to the discussions, Shadrach.
I think the only way to do this is with a 3rd-party application such as Roll Call Directory, which reads the AB database but gives you greater flexibility in printing labels.

Share printer with XP and Vista

I have an HP psc 2110xi connected to a PC running XP. This PC is connected (hardwired) to a Linksys wireless router. Another PC running Vista is connected to the wireless network. I am trying to share the printer with the Vista PC. Is this possible??????I fear it is not but await confirmation from any guru willing to commit him/her self.........

hello,
yes, it is possible since your host computer is the XP. make sure the firewall is turned off. try to ping the computer first with each other to make sure that the computers are communicating well with each other.
go to printers and faxes
right click on the printer driver and click Sharing.
put a check mark on Share this printer.
take note of the share name.
then from your vista computer type \\ xp ip address.
for example, \\192.168.1.100
the printers and faxes window of the XP will show up.
right click on the driver and click Connect.
try to print.
keep me informed please..

Printing with Lion and Adobe Reader 9.4.5

Today, after installing Lion Wed, I needed to print a pdf document with mixed landscape and portrait pages.
With AR 9.4.5 all the landscape pages were rendered in portrait, occupying about half of each sheet.
With Preview, all pages printed as they should.
A colleague printed the same file with Snow Leopard and AR 9.4.5: It printed as it should.
Either AR 9.4.5 is not fully compatible or (more likely) there is some obscure setting I need to change.
Any thoughts?
Phil

Thanks. I will give it a try!

Printing page name and other information

I'm new to mac and having a bit of a time trying to understand how many print interfaces there are. Loving things so far but I need to take a minute to figure some things out.
1. Is there a way to set my HP Printer to always print the name of the file at the bottom or otherwise set these kinds of options as pre-settings so I can pull down to them when I want various configs/
2. Is there a way to get the pdf printer in Preview to default to printing to all pages? I seem to frequently print one page and I have to go through a bunch of clickthrough operations to get all the pages to print to one pdf.
Thanks,
Jon

This is usually a feature of the application you are printing from and appears in the applications PDE, usually the default panel shown when the the Print Dialog is brought up.
2. Is there a way to get the pdf printer in Preview to default to printing to all pages? I seem to frequently print one page and I have to go through a bunch of clickthrough operations to get all the pages to print to one pdf.
What printer are you using? And are you using the PDF menu at the bottom left of the print dialog?

Pin names and numbers do not print with black and white printer setup option

Multisim V12
Printer HP LaserJet 1320
File -> Print Options -> Print Sheet Setup, check In black/white, OK
Then
File -> Print Preview, shows all elements of the drawing in black white
Then select Print and the drawing prints without pin names and pin numbers.
The same procedure with the black/white unchecked previews in color and then prints all circuit elements

Hi HiZTrace,
I used Multisim 12 with the same configuration and printed with a HP LaserJet 4250, but it seemed to be working well for me. There could be some incompatibility issue with your printer driver. A workaround you can try is to install a PDF Converter and print the file in color, then print the generated PDF file in black and white. There are many PDF Converters available, for example, CutePDF Writer (free)
Sorry for the inconvenience.
