PDF Printer stopped prompting for output filename

I use the Adobe Acrobat PDF Printer to create PDFs from a variety of applications. My version of Acrobat Pro is 10.1.6. The printer is configured to prompt me for the output filename, but never does. It used to work, but I can't figure out what has changed. I have done a repair of Acrobat, and even went so far to uninstall and reinstall.

Turns out to be an OS problem. I cannot print to my HP printer either! (And this is after rebooting.) Oh well. Off to the Mac forums for assistance. Thanks anyway for those of you who looked at this.

Printing or Converting to PDF and outputting in current folder?

Hi all,
I've got a bunch of Word docs in a bunch of different folders and I'm looking for an easy way to convert them to PDF without much intervention. I can go into my Adobe PDF printing preferences and specify each folder before I select all the Word docs and print them, but then I have to change the output folder each time. I'm looking for a way to specify it to just output the PDF to the current folder by default and not bring up a dialog box to rename the file.
Is there an easy way to do this? I have docs separated into about 50-100 different folders. I'd like to just point it to the root folder and click print or convert, but if I have to go into each folder individually, select all and print/convert then that would be more acceptable than the way we have to do it currently.
Thanks for your time!

Quite so, but transparency implied vector to me.

Printer output to PDF?

Hi all,
I have been using Java to creating graphical reports using JComponent. The printing quality is really good. However, when I try to save it as image, the image quality is HUGHLY deteriorated as I simply can't produce a high enough resolution for printing.
I am thinking of saving it as a PDF from the printer output. I have done a search on JAVA forum but have no luck. Could anyone give me a pointer on how to achieve this?
Thank you all in advance.
Cheers,
Sam

Output file name in Adobe PDF printer

I am a new user trying to use the Adobe PDF printer to print a large number (34,000+) of single sheet reports from an application that is using ASP web pages with long trash names. The pdf printer tries to name them all 1.pdf. Is there any setting to have it increment the file name so that i do not have to name each of these documents? As you can imagine this would take slightly more time than would be convenient, not to mention the assossiated hand cramps

I am sad to report that apparently Adobe does not do a very good job with the PDF printer. I have just spent over an hour with support to get the answer we can not help you. I guess I will have to spend $50 for NovaPDF to handle my problem. It's a shame when a superior overall product like Acrobat is not able to keep up with the knockoffs on the small things.

Adobe PDF printer no output. Did 'Print Test Page', but never got out of queue (Acrobat X Pro;Win 7)

I'm using Acrobat X Pro in Windows 7 environment. At Control Panel->Hardware and Sound->Devices and Printers, I did a 'Print Test Page' when I right-clicked on the Adobe Printer icon and clicked Printer properties. The 'Save PDF File As' prompt came up and I entered the filename and chose the folder location. Next, I clicked the 'Save' button in the prompt.
I could not locate the pdf file at the folder I had designated the test page to be saved to. So I checked the printer queue. The test page was still in the queue, but nothing was happening. What do I need to do to rectify this problem? Thank you very much.

I figured it out.
Adobe PDF cannot parse the quotes in any title that firfox passes to it.
So if your page has a " in it. The PDF printer does not parse " right.

Adobe PDF printer - saves output file as filetype+filename need it to save only as filename

I am using windows xp pro, when i create the pdf file with adobe PDF printer it creates the file name "Ami Pro - filename.pdf" I really need it to create the file name as "filename.pdf". Can you please help me - thank you

Thank you Bernd - Explorer will let us change the file name one at a time, however I am creating numerous pdfs at a time, and its a pain to correct them one at a time, or to create a bat file to do this. Does anyone know if the Adobe PDF printer has a feature that will eliminate the file type? thanks

HP LaserJet P1102W - no print output in Linux Mint 17.1 Cinnamon Desktop

I've just done a default install of Linux Mint 17.1 - as feared, no print output.
I'm guessing I need to install a driver - but I couldn't find anything easily on HP site, only Windows/Mac OS stuff. Are HP printers generally linux friendly? Where can I download drivers if they are? More over, I'm a total linux newbie, so any drivers need to be easily installed! I'm not currently familiar with Terminal windows and line commands!
My printer does have wireless enabled, but I have it connected via direct USB also.
Linux Mint did offer to run a diagnostic tool/debugging tool which gave a great deal of what means nothing to me. Debug output is below if it is helpful, but hoping a simple driver install will cure all ...

Printer output incorrect/too small after upgrading to VS 2010 Crystal

I have a Windows Form application that was originally written using .net 3.5 and the version of Crystal Reports that came with Visual Studio 2008. When the VS 2010 release of Crystal Reports came out, I upgraded the application to .net 4/VS 2010 and the new Crystal release.
This application prints checks on blank check stock, so alignment of the output has to be very exact to print the checks correctly. It prints the reports using the PrintToPrinter() method of the ReportDocument class.
In the original version of the program, I had everything aligned correctly in the check report. After updating the application to the latest Crystal release,but making no changes to the report itself, I noticed that the alignment of the checks report was incorrect.
After comparing the output, I was able to determine that the new output is slightly shrunk compared to old output, almost as if it is scaling the report in some way.
I opened the report in the new report designer and verified that all page size and margin settings were correct/the same as before, and they were. The printed output is smaller than it should be based on how the report is designed. I tried adjusted the paper size, and also tried the "Dissociate Formatting Page Size and Printer Paper Size" to see if I could somehow adjust for the scaling, but nothing I tried was successful.
Our check printer is a HP LaserJet 5Si. During my investigation into the problem I discovered that if I printed the report to a pdf printer (PDFCreator) the resulting pdf did not have the same scaling/shrinking problem that I get when the report is sent directly to the LaserJet. I also printed a page from the pdf to the LaserJet using Acrobat Reader, and the output was as I expected it to be.
I only seem to be seeing the scaling/shrinking problem when I send the report directly to the LaserJet. Is there some new setting that I'm overlooking that would be applying some sort of report-wide scaling? Any other ideas as to why this is happening?

Looking for HP LaserJet 5Si at the HP website:

I notice that there are several different types (hm, mx, nx, ...). Also, there are different drivers, depending on the OS.
Ensure that you are using the correct driver (hm, mx, nx, ...) for your printer and for your OS and that the driver has the latest updates from HP.

Double sided pdf printing

Is there a way to set up a pdf for double sided printing? I know how to do double sided printing directly out of InDesign, but I want to save my document in such a way so that I can have the printing done at an outside printing company. Is there a way to do this? Or must I save each page as a PDF and then try to align it? (Print one side, turn it over and then print the other PDF on the other side.)
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

No. But you are asking the wrong question.
The decision to print duplex or simplex is a decision made at the time of printing the PDF, by the program and printer driver printing the PDF (and limited by the capabilities of the output device). Instruct your outside printing company to print double-sided, and they will do so, just as they will use the paper size and weight you request.
I do not believe there is a way to embed within a PDF a directive indicating that it ought to be printed double-sided, no. Certainly InDesign has no such way. Not do you need it. Communicate the information out-of-band.

Another problem with PDF printing

Hi all.
I try new pdf printing in Apex 3.0 with printing engine Apache FOP and BI Publisher. Both engines seems work well. I configured Apex engine to use Standard Support for pdf.
Next I imported example application http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/packaged_apps/pdf_demo.zip and run it. But when I press "print" link, instead pdf output I receive error page "404 Not Found The requested URL /pls/apex/f was not found on this server."
Apex 3.0 reside on Oracle 9.0.2 database server and use it http server with modplsql. Both Apache FOP and BI Publisher works on standalone OC4J container.
In Apex's http-server error log I noticed next error messages:
[Fri Apr 13 16:07:11 2007] [warn] mod_plsql: Stale Connection due to Oracle error 22293
[Fri Apr 13 16:07:11 2007] [error] mod_plsql: /pls/apex/f ORA-22293
ORA-22293: LOB already opened in the same transaction
Is anybody know what to do in this situation?

Marc, thank you for your reply.

How to set default PDF print locations to be same as source file

Is it possible to make the "Save to" location for files created using the Adobe PDF print driver to be the same location as the source file?
When I checked the prefs dialog box in the Adobe PDF print driver, the only setting I found was to make "PDF Output Folder" either the "My Documents" folder or "Prompt for PDF File Name." I wish there were a third option that said "Same as source file."
-Danny

Hi Daniel, Yes, it is possible to do so. Here is the solution: 1) Open the PDF. 2) File->Print 3) Click the Properties button available on Print Dialog Box. 4) Select the Adobe PDF Settings Tab and you will find static text "Adobe PDF Output Folder", Go for "Browse" button available against that and select your preferred location. 5) Now the drop down menu will display all the options i.e. "My Documents" , "Prompt for PDF File Name" and "<Your selected Option>". I hope this will help resolve your issue. Thanks, Atul Agarwal Adobe Systems

Avoiding the 'Save PDF File As' dialog when printing to the adobe PDF printer from a service

Hello, can someone please help.
I have Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro installed.
I have an in house application which (among many other things) effectively monitors a directory and prints the file to the default printer. It works fine when run as an application.
I have set the defaults on the Adobe PDF printer to put the output PDF file into a directory and not to open it so it works silently without prompts.
When I run my application as a service, it brings up the 'Save PDF File As' dialog and I would like to avoid this. My impression is that if I put the right registry key in then it will work.
I do not want to do any scripting if I can avoid it.
Thanks for all constructive help given.

Thank for your help Bill, but changing settings in the distiller did not seem to work. As my application prints directly to the default application without using anything specific to Acrobat, I was hoping there was a simple way forward. A colleague suggested copying registry entries from the account I logged on as to the S-1-5-18 entry, then rebooting. This had no effect as the prompt still comes up.
Aandi, I don't have the Acrobat SDK or any experience of it.
Also I'm not sure where any code/script would sit since the application is stable and so I would rather not change it.
If it amounts to a few lines of javascript sitting outside the application then that would be of interest.

Quark / PDF Printing Problems (Save as PDF in OS X)

I upgraded from Quark 4.1 to 6.5 about a year ago, and ever since then the files I create and print don't look as good. The primary issue seems to be color -- colors don't come out as deep, there seems to be less color saturation, sometimes colors are just pretty far off. I'm working in Mac OS 10.4.8.
For many years my method has been to design documents and output as PDFs to be professionally printed. These days my PDFs don't print as well. I suspect that the problem has to do with the process of creating the PDF. In Quark 6.5 I create PDFs by selecting "Save as PDF" from Quark's Print menu. Back when I was using 4.1, since Quark didn't have a built-in PDF-creator, I would go into the Chooser, select AdobePS as my printer, and then just choose Print in Quark and it would "print" to a PDF.
One other problem I've had since the upgrade is that the PDFs Quark creates are HUGE files -- tens or hundreds of megs -- often too large to email. When I used to create PDFs from the identical Quark files using 4.1, the resulting PDFs printed much better and were much smaller files (often far less than 1 meg). Solving the color problem is a higher priority for me than solving the file size issue, though.
I've spent a lot of time trying to troubleshoot this with our local printer here in Albany, NY (the same guy who printed my stuff in the old days, when it came out looking a lot better). Things we've tried that haven't seemed to solve the problem:
- Increasing the LPI to 300
- Checking the box for Full Resolution Tiff Output
- Experimenting with OPI active and not
- Experimenting with different PDF options like "Save as PDF," "Compress PDF," "PDF-X," etc. (Compress PDF does result in smaller PDFs, but the quality of the resulting prints is even worse)
Also, if anyone has suggestions about Quark-specific forums I could post this to, let me know. I tried creating an account on the discussion forms on Quark's website, but I don't receive their confirmation email to confirm my account.
Any advice greatly appreciated -- thanks so much!

Marshall,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
colin clarke1’s info is spot on. I will add a bit more. Acrobat Professional includes Distiller in addition to a print driver called Adobe PDF 7.0 (version number matches version of Acrobat). I think the print driver installs automatically, but if not, you should choose to install it and then it will show in your list of printers. This will allow you to make PDFs from Quark XPress much as you did with Quark 4.1.
Distiller comes with some pre-defined Settings (formerly know as Job Options) for different types of printing, i.e., Smallest file (low-resolution like online viewing), Standard, High Quality, Press Quality and others. These Settings are general standards in the industry in terms amount and type of image compression, font embedding, color management, compatibility with previous Acrobat versions and etc.
colin clarke1’s method of saving a Quark doc as a PostScript and then distilling it is one method. (You can set this in your Quark Preferences.) Alternatively, you could do the following within Quark XPress…
(a) Select Print, which brings up the Print window. At the bottom of the window are some buttons. Click on Page Setup and in its window, for Format for: select the Adobe PDF 7/8, the appropriate Paper size and then OK.
(b) Returning to the Quark print window, make all the necessary choices for Layout, Setup, Output, Options, Layers, Bleed, OPI and Profiles.
(c) Next, click on the button Printer (at the bottom) which brings up a Mac OS print window. Click to the right of Printer and select Adobe PDF 7/8. Next, click and hold on Copies & Pages for a drop-down list of options and select PDF Options. Click on the bar to the right of Adobe PDF Settings and a list of Distiller Settings will pop up and select the one that best fit the type of printing you are doing, e.g., Press Quality. If you want to see the PDF version afterwards, then select Acrobat for After PDF Creation. Click Ok.
(d) Returning to the Quark print window, click Print button (lower right). A Save window appears for you to name your document and select where you wish to save in on your computer. (If you choose to see the PDF afterwards, then Acobat will launch and the PDF will then appear in Acrobat.)
You could learn more about the latest version of Acrobat 8.0 (released November 2006) by Adobe’s “tour” at http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobatpro/productinfo/features/
Hope this helps.

PDF Printing Troubleshooting in ApEx 3.0

Hi, I'm trying to implement the PDF Printing functionality that was introduced in ApEx 3.0
I have an ApEx page that produces reports and I want to offer two options: exporting to excel and printing to PDF.
The exporting to excel seems to work fine by Enabling CSV Output under Report Attributes. However, when I try to print PDFs by enabling report printing and choosing the output format as PDF, I get an error. It seems to create a PDF file and when I choose to open it with Adobe 7.0, it says that the file is damaged and could not be repaired. When I enable report printing and choose the output format as HTML, however, it works beautifully.
What could be the problem? Thanks

I had to take all the double quotes out for the pdf to stop giving that error message. Then I had to manually set the column widths for the report to show properly. I didn't play with this much so it may not be the best solution. try select 'a','b','c' from dual and see if that works.
