Can't print pdf web pages

using OS 10.4.11, safari 3.1.1, and adobe professional 7.0, I find that although
I can print most web pages, I can't print a pdf web page.
any thoughts ?

where do you make that selection?
Not sure where in Acrobat Professional, but in the free Acrobat Reader, it's in Acrobat Reader menu > Preferences > (category) Internet > "Display PDF in browser using:" - uncheck the box and that should cause Safari to use it's own PDF display engine (shared with Preview).
how do I make Safari show scroll command along page side - right now I seem to have lost ability to scroll up and down web page ?
That's a puzzler - the vertical/horizontal scroll bars should always be there if the page is longer/wider than the current size of the display window... Might try posting that one in the Safari for Mac forum.
Hope this helps...

  • How can I print a web page to a hard copy with Adobe?

    How can I print a web page to a hard copy with Adobe? When I print this particular page in the usual way it prints only the text of that page, not the photo that's also part of that page.

    I have Adobe SendNow, but I can buy another Adobe product if it will solve my web page printing problem.

    Just read that the default memory storage on FF is set to 5 mbs. You can up that by clicking on tools, advanced and overriding the default and set it to 50 mbs (if you use lots of tabs) or 10 mbs (if you use just a few).
    I open a blank tab and clear the cache periodically, while I am working. I can have several tabs open and watch videos on Youtube, by doing this. Have you cleared your cache?
    Since I have an older computer, I've also used CCleaner for years. I use it often, but always before signing off. You can get it free...search for CCleaner, download from Pirifoam free. I didn't change any of the settings and it clears crap left behind from uninstalling programs, clears all browsers at once of: cookies, history, passwords, etc. I love it!
    I had freezing, before using the "open blank tab, clear the cache" thing. Now I have no problems. Plus, as I said...you can change the default memory usage for FF and that should help too.
    Hope this helps! Good luck! :)

  • How do I get print n share to work after upgrade to iOS 5.  I can print from this app thru wifi.  But it can,t print mail, web pages, etc..

    How do I get print n share to work after upgrade to iOS 5.  I can print from the app thru wifi and PC. However am unable to print mail, web pages, etc..
    In mail when I try to print it just says can,t find air printers.  It used to say print with print  n share.

    I sent e-mail to developer regarding this and they said that basically Apple has denied them access to the Airprint dialog in the new source code for iOS 5.  So, the only way to print to pdf is to capture the e-mail or webpage in the internal apps within Print n Share.  INHO, this really *****.  Apple should make printing to pdf files just a standard feature of all their apps.  If they don't do this, they are going to lose alot of business to the Adroid world as pdf file format is the business standard for all documents.

  • Firefox 3.6.15 Can not print entire web page

    When using the print icon or "print preview" I only get/see the first and last page of a web page, all pages in between are missing. Only time it prints correctly is when web page is 1 or 2 pages.
    Copying URL to IE and printing works fine.
    This used to work. I think problem started with last Firefox update.
    I updated to 3.6.14 and a few days later 3.6.15 was released to fix bugs and not sure which version it started with.
    It worked in RC 3.6.13

  • Can't print complete web pages in Ver 5.0

    Just upgraded to Ver 5.0. OS is XP SP3. Printer is Brother MFC-7225N. When trying to print a page from a site, instead of the one page, I got multiple pages that were the frame by frame pages. The "Print Frame" section is greyed out under the print command. Cannot choose "as laid out on screen" Did not have problem with previous version which was 3.6

  • I can't print a web page via Preview or directly from page. Have to use Safari which works.

    I can no longer use Firefox (last 5 months or so) and be able to print anything especially using Preview (which is automatic) on my MAC. Safari works great.

    Do you have any custom DNS settings on the devices that cannot connect?
    What happens If you connect to a different Wifi network outside of your home with any of the devices that can't open the website in your home, can you view the website?
    If you Ping the website from home what IP address does it attempt to ping?

  • Printing a document from firefox web page or Microsoft Word doc ument used to work just fine. All of a sudden I was unable to print a Word document. I can still print a web page. Any suggestions?

    I have a document from Microsoft Word that will not print. It's as if the printer is not connected when I attempt with the Word document. I have gone in and deleted any pending documents in Microsoft Word. I have restarted computer, as well as the printer. The printer does not seem to be connecting or responding to the Word program (cannot find spooler) Any suggestions?

    I have a problem similar to those posted here, with one difference. With my printers newly installed, regardless of which one is selected as the default, when I try to print from Adobe Reader I receive the error message we're talking about : "Before you can perform a print related task...."
    Here's the fun part.
    If I click OK on the message, ALL MY PRINTERS GET DELETED and, I get the windows message that "Spooler subsystem app has encountered a problem and needs to close"! If instead of clicking OK I switch to Task Manager and end Adobe, I'm fine and can print from other programs.
    I can "reset" the problem by deleting the files in C:\Windows\System32\Spool\Printers and C:\Windows\System32\Spool\Drivers\w32x86, restarting the machine, and deleting then reinstalling the printers (which show up again after the restart).
    BUT, if I try to print from Adobe Reader again, I get the same cycle of problems.
    I am running Windows Vista and Adobe Reader 8.1

  • Safari 5.1.5 shows .pdf web pages as black. The same thing happens with Firefox. Does this have something to do with an AdobePDF plug-in?

    Safari 5.1.5 shows .pdf web pages as black. The same thing happens with Firefox, at least with the few pages I've checked. Does this have something to do with an AdobePDF plug-in? I recently had to restore my system from Time Machine backup.

    The following appears to have I solved my problem with Safari 5.1.5, 5.1.6 and 5.1.7. I also have Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 installed.
    Follow mbuffy's post dated May 10, 2012 directly above, and
    Do NOT allow Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 to perform the "repair" the missing Adobe PDFViewer Plug-in when the window pops up and offers to repair Adobe PDFViewer Safari Plug-in. If Adobe does the "repair," then I can not view .pdf web pages in Safari or Firefox.
    FYI, cmmartin0275 posted the following on Sep 8, 2011 in a discussion of "Missing PDF Pluggin" at https://discussions.apple.com/message/16119130#16119130:
    "Just FYI to anyone with this problem...this is straight from Adobe's website.
    "Adobe Reader plug-in and Acrobat plug-in are not compatible with the Safari 5.1 browser, which will ship with Mac OS X 10.7 and for 10.6 in July. Adobe Reader and Acrobat will continue to work as standalone applications on Mac OS X 10.7 and 10.6, and will render PDF documents outside of the browser. In addition, Safari 5.1 renders PDF documents natively. However, the Adobe Reader and Acrobat plug-ins will not function as expected in LiveCycle and Acrobat workflows that require either plug-in to render PDF documents in Safari 5.1."
    They also go on to say they hope to have a solution or work around before the end of 2011..."
    Thanks for the help.

  • Safari 4.0.3 hangs every time I try to print a web page to a pdf file.

    Hi. Just wondering if anyone else has run into this problem and whether or not they have found a fix for it. Every time I try to print a web page to a pdf file from Safari (v4.0.3 running under Snow Leopard 10.6.1), Safari hangs and I have to force quit the program. The pdf is saved successfully, but the browser hangs immediately after the file has been created.
    The problem is very consistent - every time I try to print a web page to a pdf file, the browser hangs. Anyone else have the same problem? Thanks.

    Hi,
    Try Safari maintenance.
    From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Empty Cache. When you are done with that...
    from the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 5 buttons and click Reset.

  • PDF printing of web-pages WITH background?

    How do I make it possible to have the background image/pattern/colour etc. of a web-page included when I "print" to PDF?
    Whenever I print a web page with something in the background other than white it's missing in the PDF file. This happens in my daily-use browser (Seamonkey), but also in Safari. However, in iCab (http://www.icab.de/) the background is included in the PDF file, so at least it's possible in MacOS. I just can't find any settings for it.

    Yes, this worked! Thanks!
    Another neat trick I found is that you can save the different settings. Just go to the "presets" part of the print menu, then save the current setting. For example by naming it "PDF printing with background".
    Then turn off the background colour/image/pattern and save it as a new preset (e.g. "Print (to paper)").
    That way you don't need to waste lots of ink, but at the same time you'll get the complete web-page with background and all when you save it as a PDF file. Just remember to select the right preset before you "print".

  • No preview or preview button appears when I try to print a web page, as it does for any other file. How can I arrange for preview?

    n the dialog box that appears when I try to print any web page, there is neither a preview nor a preview button, (although there is a preview if I open the web item as a pdf file, but that takes an extra step. A preview appears when I print any other file on my computer (a Macbook). Is there a setup procedure that will give a preview when printing one or several web pages?

    The Print button in the "3-bar" Firefox menu button drop-down list opens the Print Preview window.
    You can click the Print button in the Print Preview window or use the Print item in the File menu (File > Print) or use the Ctrl+P shortcut to have access to the print selection item and other print setup options.
    * Tap the Alt key or press F10 to show the Menu bar.
    * Use "View > Toolbars > [X] Menu Bar" to have the menu bar visible permanently.
