Cannot print pdf with update to 29

Only getting blank pages since the update to 29. I print many International eBay postage labels daily that are pdf format. Very disappointed in mozilla. Been printing these for a few years, this should not happen....now back to Explorer. May not come back to firefox.

Hi corsnguy,
I'm sorry to hear you're having problems. We're aware of the situation and our engineers are working on it.
Meanwhile what you can you is to download the file you want to print, use an external pdf reader to open it (like Adobe Reader) and then print from there.
Hope that helps! The issue will be hopefully fixed soon.

Cannot print PDF with Adobe Reader 9.4.6 ?

I cannot print PDF files using Adobe Reader 9.4.6. OS is VISTA. Everytime I try to print a PDF file, I receive the following message - " Before you can perform print or related tasks such as page settings or printing you need to install a printer" I have a printer installed and can print word, excel files, etc. Cannot print any PDF files. Help!

Had you managed to print the same files, or are you talking about files you hadn't attempted to print? Are these PDF files forms that you are trying to fill and print in Reader?

Cannot print PDF with selectable text from Chrome

Hi All
Fairly recently (since the last chrome update?) I cannot select text in my PDFs printed from Chrome (on my windows 7 machine).
Previously, I had discovered the workaround (print using printer dialog) that is outlined here Google Chrome | Cannot select text in PDF but that solution no longer works, however. Now, even if I follow that method, zooming in shows that the text has been converted to outline and the text cannot be selected OR searched for within windows.
Doing the same print from Internet Explorer yields the expected result - selectable, searchable text.
This may well be a Chrome issue... but considering it makes the above workaround invalid I figured it should be reported. Perhaps Adobe has a big enough voice to get Googles attention.
It's such a massive pain - all PDFs I've created in the last couple of weeks are useless.
Help?
Thanks, Glenn

Agreed.. it is raised there also (Google Groups)... although there are multiple posts on the matter being ignored so I'm not overly optimistic.
I just figured if Adobe cared enough above the issue to write that (now incorrect) help page Google Chrome | Cannot select text in PDF then they (and others) may care to know that particular solution is no longer working.
The only thing that seems to work is Google's own "Save as PDF"... which seems to support your point, unfortunately.

Cannot print pdf with watermark - watermark showing as "markup"

I'm trying to add a watermark to my PDF to show only when printed. It is simple enough to do, except it will not actually print. I can see it in print preview when viewing "document and markup," but not on my document. Therefore, when I distribute this PDF, and others print it, they will not see my watermark.
Help! Does anyone know a workaround for this or what I can do to make the watermark part of the document and not a markup only?

Hi,
Something (maybe) that might help.
With Acrobat 8 or 9 -
In the "Add Watermark" dialog; look for "Appearance Options" (lower third of the dialog window).
Click on it.
In the "Appearance Options" dialog, be sure "Show when printing" is selected.
Test the PDF one a different computer using Adobe Reader.
Be well...

Cannot print PDF's with Kyocera

I am using a Kyocera 5050 in my office installed as a network printer that utilizes local authorization codes for each employee in order to track printing usage. Normally, a print job will be sent to the printer and a box will pop up asking for credentials (the username and password for the printer). The printer will authorize the print job and then print it. I have one employee which cannot print PDF's from Acrobat. I tried updating the printer driver, Acrobat is up to date, and he has no trouble printing from any other application. Tried installing Adobe Acrobat Reader in order to see if it was just Acrobat, and Reader will not allow printing either. The computer will send the print job to the printer, but the printer rejects the credentials and will not print the job. No other employee has issues so it isn't a network issue, and his credentials work in any other software outside of Adobe products so I'm assuming that the issue lies within Adobe's software. Any ideas?

I we understand your posting, only one user out of a group of users printing to a particular printer requiring credential presentation is having problems printing from Acrobat. How do you conclude that “the issue lies within Adobe's software” given that the other users don't have this problem?
The particular printer, the Kyocera 5050, supports a number of page description languages, including their own emulations of PostScript and PCL. What page description language is being used? Are all the users setup with the same driver using the same page description language and the exact same driver settings?
Acrobat and Reader generate their own PostScript, bypassing the driver for that function. Drivers that attempt to put up their own dialogs (such as requesting credentials) and then try to insert commands into the PostScript stream must do so very carefully per conventions established by Microsoft and Adobe. If such commands (such as a pre-job authentication stream) are not properly inserted, then they might be put into the job in the wrong place or go missing altogether.
I would recommend checking the driver for the user experiencing the problems, making sure it is the exact same version and having all the same settings as those for users not having problems.

After updating to Adobe Reader 11.0.07 on my iMac, I cannot print pdf forms off the web

after updating my iMac to Adobe Reader 11.0.07, I cannot print pdf forms off the Web

It would be great, if you could provide us with the following details:
1. The OS you are working on.
2. The version of MS Office installed on your machine.
3. A screenshot of the error message along with the scenario in which the same is displayed.
4. How exactly did you go about updating Reader 11.0.02 to 11.0.03. Was it via the updater mechanism or by downloading the patch from the Adobe site.
Also, it would be great if you could let us know if there was any other Windows or Antivirus related updates applied on your machine in the same timeframe as the Reader update.

Cannot print PDF file with version 11.0.10 Adobe Reader.

Cannot print PDF file with version 11.0.10 Adobe Reader. Get error messages "This document could not be printed" and "There are no pages selected to print". I am using a Mac OS Ver 10.0.2. I see that this question has been asked by others recently, but no answers. Anyone have any suggestions?

Assuming you are running 10.10.2 and not the ancient 10.0.2, can you tell us what printer and printer driver you are using? How is the printer connected to the computer (network, usb)? See if you can delete the Reader preference files? Years ago I resetting the printer subsystem would sometimes cure a problem like this.

Cannot print PDF files on Mac OS X

Hi,
since some update from Reader 8.1 to 8.1.2 I cannot print PDF files anymore. Meanwhile I installed Reader 9, but with no luck.
If I crank up the preferences I get the error "Failed to load an application resource (internal error)." ... maybe there is something wrong with the installation, but even an reinstall doesnt fix it.
If I try to print I get only the message "The document could not be printed" and then "There were no pages selected to print." ... no matter what PDF I try to print.
The Apple Preview works without any problems, so the PDFs should be good.
Can anyone help me on this ... its really frustrating.
Best Regards
--Michael

I had this same problem. I did a clean install of OS X 10.5.6 to an USB hard drive, installed Adobe Reader 9, and tried printing. It worked fine. Then I cloned the external drive back onto the internal drive and it failed with the same no pages selected problem.
It turns out that my filesystem on my internal hard drive is case sensitive, but the external hard drive had the default case-insensitive file system.
To fix, do this:
Go get yourself an external firewire or usb hard drive at least as big as your internal drive. Plug it in and use Disk Utility.app (under /Applications/Utilities) to Erase it and format it as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)". The download CarbonCopyCloaner, a free utility that can copy an entire drive. Use CCC to clone your Macintosh HD to the external drive.
Now that you have a backup drive, go to System Preferences and choose Startup Disk. Pick the external drive as the the startup drive. Reboot and check that your printing works properly now.
If that fixed your problem, while you are booted from the external drive, use Disk Utility to erase Macintosh HD and format it as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" not "Mac OS Extended (Journaled) case-sensitive". Then use CCC to copy everything back. Reboot.

Cannot print pdf doc

After upgrading to 11.0.10 I cannot print PDF. I've got 2 boxes: The document cannot be printed and There were no Pages selected.

I think we need to know what Sibleyfam is using as a PDF reader. I have had difficulties printing PDFs using Adobe Reader to various HP LaserJets but if I open the files using Preview they print without any problem at all. Right-click or Control-click on the PDF icon and select the Open With option... then slide across to the available applications and select Preview... if, of course, the document was opening in Adobe Reader previously. If it won't print from Preview it could be a postscript error generated by a bad font in the PDF. Opening the file in Photoshop or similar so you are, effectively, rasterizing the font data may solve the problem if a dodgy font is the issue. Converting the file to Postscript should also produce the same fix though I just 'printed' a PDF as a .ps file and the text was still selectable making me think that the font problem (if it is this) will not disappear after the conversion.
I hope this helps eliminate something even if it doesn't solve your problem.

Cannot print pdf using Mac OSX 10.9.3 and Reader XI 11.0.07

Please advise how to get Apple Mac OSX 10.9.3 withAdobe Reader XI 11.0.07 to print pdf. Able to open the pdf but on selecting print simply comes up with an Adobe red box saying "Cannot print pdf". I believe this is a common problem so expect Adobe have an answer.

Have had same problem with error message "Unable to convert postscript file". No response from Adobe. Even tried their technical support which said they offered no support for free products. Have found a couple go arounds but no fixes.

Printing pdf with Adobe 10 and Mac OSX

After downloading Adobe Reader 10.0.0 I cannot print pdf files on my Canon MP620 printer. Snow Leopard Mac OSX 10.6.6 is my operating system Error message comes up "pstopdffilter/pstocupsraster failed with err. number 13". Can anyone help please?

After dealing with this problem for a whole day, this finally solved the problem. Not sure if it will work for everyone or if I just got lucky. Either way...
I threw out all Acrobat preferences (8 and 9). I uninstalled Acrobat Pro 9. Opened Acrobat Pro 8 and printed the files. I then re-installed Pro 9 and with both 8 and 9 open, I was able to print. Now Pro 9 works fine (without having 8 open) Not sure why this worked, since re-installing Acrobat Pro 9 alone didn't fix the problem.
Hopefully this might work for someone else too.

Cannot print PDFs after installing mountain lion

I recently upgraded to mountain lion and have been having a series of problems!
The latest is that after updating my drivers for my printer Brother 7840W, I am able to print word documents. But I just found out that I cannot print PDFs. It says, "looking for printer..." However, I can cancel that and go and print a word document. So, i'm at a loss as to what the issue is. Any thoughts?
