Can't make pdf and getting ready to print very slow

I am using ID CS4 with Windows 7.  CS4 includes Acrobat 9.  I want to create a pdf file of a business card design.  When I chose Print and pdf as the printer, there is a very long pause.  Finally a windows says "Printing" and then a message "Downloading procset."  At this point the process is frozen.  I can go to Task Manager and it shows ID not responding.  No pdf file is produced.
What's the solution?
And while I mentioned the long pause above, that pause is very long if I want to print from my Officejet printer.  The document will print, but it seems like a much longer pause that should happen.

Good question.  That's the way I've done it before, but if export is the recommended way, I'll try that.

  • Acrobat 9 standard can't make pdf and can't uninstall or reinstall

    952 update killed the pdf printer. Gone. Adobe guy in India couldn't fix it by taking over my computer. He deleted something in printers and faxes and then I got the put in the windows cd for files message. I did a system restore and the PDF printer came back, but now nothing works. Can't uninstall it either in windows or with uninstall programs downloaded from web. In Windows I get the message "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 package." Can't reinstall it with the cd either. Same message. Will have to try to call India Monday morning. (Gee, I work Saturday, why can't they.) I don't have a good feelling about this.
    Meanwhile, I downloaded PrimoPDF for free and it works a charm. Maybe I'll stick with that. Can't beat the price.

    India lady said she would "escalate" and someone would call me withing 24 hours. Nobody called. Too bad, twist slowly in the wind seems to be Adobe's message. I own a jewelry store and I do whatever it takes to take care of my customers. Meanwhile, I paid for their product which was working fine until their update and now it doesn't. Not only no pdf printer, but distiller won't even open. Hangs up and I have to CTRL ALT DEL to shut it down. Manual PDF printer install asks for i386, a windows folder. I have it. It lives in Windows>driver cache but the install doesn't see it. Is there no one at Adobe with the knowledge to fix this? Will Adobe do whatever it takes? If they don't, I will do whatever it takes to get them to do whatever it takes. Grrrr.

  • New to indesign how do i make a magazine to pdf and get code for website

    Hi,
    I am learning indesign, I cannot seem to figure out how to create a magazine than convert it to PDF and get a html code so I can have display on my website. Is this even possiable? I have watch the videos maybe I am missing something. Can someone offer advice please or links.
    Thank you.

    Here are some sites for learning html/css. Some sites are getting a bit old, I have not updated the link for the w3.org site yet. But this should point you in the right direction. And make sure your pop up blocker is on, some of these site will open a new window with an ad. I tried to mark as many as I could, but I may have missed a few.

  • Can't make PDFs suddenly

    I have a 12 month direct-debit contract for Adobe Reader XI with 10 months still to go. Today suddenly I can't create PDF files from my documents. Instead it keeps giving me a message offering me Acrobat XI Pro Trial 30 Days Free and won't go away. Any suggestions?

    Hi Sara,
    I'm getting the message when I open Acrobat Pro and also when I go to the files themselves, right click then choose 'Combine Files in Acrobat.'

    created by Sara.Forsberg in Adobe Acrobat.com Services - View the full discussionHi mgsphinx, I've checked your account--your subscription is to Acrobat Pro XI. Adobe Reader is a different (free) application.  Where are you seeing that message? When you open Acrobat Pro? Or are you opening Reader, or accessing one of the Acrobat online services?  Best,Sara If the reply above answers your question, please take a moment to mark this answer as correct by visiting: https://forums.adobe.com/message/7019770#7019770 and clicking ‘Correct’ below the answer Replies to this message go to everyone subscribed to this thread, not directly to the person who posted the message.

  • CAN I MAKE PDF'S FROM AUTOCAD DWGS. IN ACROBAT 9?

    CAN I MAKE PDF'S FROM AUTOCAD DWGS. USING ACROBAT 9, WAS USING ACROBAT 11 AND COULD PLOT TO PDF FROM AUTOCAD MENU, DON'T HAVE THAT OPTION WITH 9

    Newer versions of Acrobat's AutoCAD plug-in support newer versions of AutoCAD. Older versions of Acrobat have plug-ins that obviously don't support versions of AutoCAD newer than the Acrobat release. FYI, Acrobat 9 was released over seven years ago.

    Hello there,I delete my scruff application on the 8/05/13. Receipt N: 184052577343. And I was charged ammount of £ 16.99on the 15/05/13. I t's a Subscription Renewal. How can I stop it and get the refund of this ammount back on my account? Thank you!!

    There are instructions on this page for managing and stopping auto-renewing subscriptions (deleting an app won't stop it) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4098
    In terms of a refund, what does it say on the app's description page in the store (a lot say that refunds aren't given) ? But you can try contacting iTunes Support and see if they will refund or credit you : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

    First turn off auto-renewing subscriptions:
    iTunes Store: Purchasing and managing auto-renewing subscriptions
    Getting a refund won't be as simple. For that you will have to contact iTunes Store Support.
