Check box printing

I created a form in InDesign cs6 that contains check boxes. I exported the form as an interactive pdf.
When I check the boxes and print the form it only prints the check mark and not the boxes around the checkmark.
The unchecked boxes print just fine.
This is probably something silly, but I can't figure it out!
I'm not even sure if this should be fixed in InDesign or Acrobat...
Help!
Thank you

If it's not a bug, I'd say this is related to one of the many settings in Adobe Reader/Acrobat.
I never used such before, but I made a test how it turns out and it freaks me out what crap Adobe's programmers did here:
Original in Indesign CS6                      Exported PDF in Acrobat, unchecked                Exported PDF in Acrobat, checked
Other check box types are even worse!
Checked (default), not hovered             Unchecked, not hovered                                   
Only when checked AND hovered, it looks normal:
Checked (default), not hovered
Unchecked, not hovered
Unchecked, hovered
Checked, hovered
Anyway, when printed on paper both come out as expected. Like top left and bottom right

  • Multiple Report print out on Check box click

    Hi,
    I am using version apex_3.2.
    I have created Report and define check box in report. i want to give print functionality on check box. As i tick multiple invoices from report and click on print link defined below to the report, Selected Invoices should be printed. How i can do this?
    Thanks & regards
    Vedant

    Hello Vedant,
    <li> Do you already have a report that will accept multiple invoice numbers as input and generate required "Invoice Report" for you?
    <li> If Yes - Are you looking to generate URL based on user check-box selection? If so, please provide sample URL format which will accept multiple invoice numbers.
    <li> If No - I think first you should create such report (I have limited knowledge on Oracle Reports though)

  • How to print check box from smartform

    Hi friends,
    Any body help me ???
    How can we print a check box in a layout from smartform.....

    Hi Shashi,
    You can't directly print a checkbox as such in a smartform. But, there is a workaround.
    Create two GraphicElements (for checked / unchecked). Assigned images to (for tick and untick) them.
    In the conditions tab of GraphicElement enter conditions -
    1. for checked - field = 'X'
    2. for unchecked - field = ' '
    To add images of tick and untick to system, Use transaction SO73.

  • Print Check Box In MIGO

    Hi ALL,
    I'm having an issue with print check box in migo .
    I created a po and i created a material document(i.e Goods Recipt) in MIGO using the PO nUMBER. I made sure i selected Collective Slip and Print Check Box enabled and posted the document and when i went back to PO and looked at PO History and clicked on the GR Receipt it shows me the Material Document but for some reason the Print Check box is disabled .
    Again this happens if i create a po with one particular plant and if i use any other plant it works fine and print check box remains enabled.
    I made sure in OMJ3 ,WA03 AND WE03 i have the Plant,St Loc and Printer for the plant WHICH IS CREATING PROBLEM.
    Let me know if i'm missing something in here
    Thanks
    Venki

    Hi all,
    The same movement type works for all other plants except for one plant .
    No matter what movement type is, this plant is always disabling the print chek box for some reason.
    Let me know
    Thanks

  • I have a new MacBook Pro with OS10.8.2 and cannot get Contacts to print a list of addresses with pictures showing.  There is a check box selecting "picture" which has been checked - but no picture.  This worked fine on OS10.7.5.  Problem??

    First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
    There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
    If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane.
    Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
    Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
    If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
    Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.

  • Acrobat 9-forms-Radio buttons print different than check boxes

    I am using Acrobat Pro 9 to create forms.
    I've used both radio buttons and check boxes (that are circles).
    Forms were designed in InDesign with Zapf Dingbats as the open circles to be filled in.
    I used radio buttons when the user had to pick one over the other.
    I used check boxes when there were multiple choices or I wanted the user to be able to uncheck a box. (I used the circle style so they would look like radio buttons).
    The radio buttons are printing differently than the check boxes. It looks almost like there is an overlay on top of the actual open circle created by Zapf Dingbats.
    I checked the "appearance" window and there is no border or fill color on the radio buttons (same for the check boxes).
    Under the <general> tab, <common properties> is visible. I'm assuming it should be in order for the radio button to appear on the form.
    I would appreciate any input as to how to fix this.
    Thansk!
    Maureen

    That's just the way radio buttons are, and one reason I rarely use them in preference to check boxes. If Adobe wanted to, they could allow you to use any appearance you want for both the selected an unselected state of a check box or radio button, but they've actually further restricted your options over the years.

  • Check box is not printing ...

    hello , i need to insert check box in my smartform
    i got some number related to the pic i selected eg: 678 in the text element.. But it is not outputting that symbol in the printer.

    Hello,
    The symbol has couple of disadvantages:
    1. you will not be able to see the check box in print preview.
    2. If you take OTF output for the PDF conversion, the symbol get distorted.
    So in the Scripts / SSF, I have been using either [ ] [x] or the graphics for empty / checked - check box.
    Hope this helps you.
    Best Regards, Murugesh AS

  • Want Print Priview of check box on smart forms

    Hi Expert,
    I want  Print Priview of check box on smart forms.
    I get the checkbox symbol when i give the print out but it not show in priview.
    So pls suggest how it show in print priview.
    Thanks & Regards
    SwatantraPathak

    Hi,
    If you used the symbols then you cannot see the print preview of the checkboxes. This can seen in the print. If you want to have the print preview of checkbiex you have to create the Window of same size as check size and place it where you required. This cannot be possible with symbols

  • Radio Buttons & Check Boxes Replaced w/ Rectangles, when printing Form w/ Adobe Reader XI (11.0.03)

    Hello.  I need to be able to print a .pdf copy of a completed web page form.  The form is completed by entering data into text boxes and text areas, and selecting various radio buttons and check boxes.  When the form is complete, it is saved, which converts the form into a .pdf file.
    When I open the saved .pdf file, it looks completely normal.  I will then select the print button, which is built into the display window for the form.  The printed form will appear, but the radio buttons and check boxes will have been replaced with the outline of rectangles.
    This is what the source form looks like, before printing:
    This is what the printed image looks like, after printing.  NOTE: All check boxes and radio buttons (and the data that they contained) are gone:
    I am not sure if this is a setting that needs to be changed in Adobe REader XI, or something else.
    Please let me know what you think it might be.
    Thanks,
    Rick

    Michael,
    It is a web/html form.
    The forms are built and used inside of a software program called WebEOC.
    WebEOC is used to allow for sharing information between different
    emergency response entities (like a State, and the counties within the
    State).
    The form I am working with was built with a web page editing program.  The
    form uses html, xhtml, xml, CSS and javascript.
    A for user would launch the WebEOC form (after logging into WebEOC), and
    they would fill out the form.  Text goes into text boxes and text areas,
    dropdown menu selections are made, and some information is entered using
    radio buttons and check boxes.
    When the form is complete, it is saved within the WebEOC database, as a
    .pdf file.
    You can then open the .pdf file in order to see the form, in it's
    completed state, as a pdf.
    When I try to pint this pdf file of the completed form, the check boxes
    and radio buttons are replaced with rectangles.  Any selections made in
    the radio buttons or checkboxes is lost.
    Thanks,
    Rick

  • Very slight blue cast on epson r1900 when match print color check box is checked

    Ok, so this problem has been bugging me for some time now and I know other people have it too, because I can see it some of the screen shots. 
    I am running CS3 and and epson r1900.  Using the latest drivers, and latest ICM epson paper profiles downloaded again just yesterday.  So what happen is when I go to print a photo, whenever I check the match print color box, the proof instantly assume a very light blue cast which prints on the paper as well.
    Let me tell you what I know it is not.
    1.  It is not double color management- ICM is disabled on the epson print manager side
    2.  It is not a badly calibrate monitor, My spyder 2 is working just fine.
    I am wondering if its some type of gamut compression inherint the the ICC profile, but if that were the case, if I converted my photo into the icc's color space, it just take on the blue cast, but it does not it.  The blue cast appears only after the match printer colors check box is checked.  Even if I add additional whitespace to the picture, that what space, which when you think about it, should just be paper white, get printed again with the light blue cast.  In checking and unchecking that above mentioned box, I can see that other features within the photo are being affected or shifted as well.  If I use a different icc profile, say, the Kodak Professional Paper profile or a red river paper profile, there is no Blue Cast period when the box is check or unchecked, so it seems to be something related to epson profiles, and Photoshop.
    I have removed the printer and reinstalled with all the latested drivers available at epson website, as well as removed all my old epson paper iCC profiles and reinstalled them from that latest available from epson as well.
    I can see on some epson printing tutorials avaiable on the web, this blue cast in the screen shots.  Like here- http://www.gballard.net/psd/printing_epson_photoshop_cs3.html
    compare the the preview print area , the the white in the in input box for print size and you can see there is a cast.
    So is this normal?
    thanks
    Patrick

    Patrick,
    ICC profiles include white point information.  When you check  the match print color box, Photoshop trys to show a quick soft proof of your image there in the print dialog.  The blue cast is Photoshop trying to simulate the white point in the profile - which happens to be the shade of the paper.  Some papers have more of a pronounced blue or yellow shade, and this shows up in the soft proof.
    In reality you will not see nearly the level of shift on a print as you do in the Photoshop print dialog.  That soft proof is not really super accurate.
    To summarize it is indeed the paper ICC profile that is causing the effect.  Different profiles will all show slightly different variations in the white point under these circumstances.
