Document could not print because no pages were selected to print

I have indicated page 151-200 to print. receive the error above

With the limited amount of information you have provided, its virtually impossible to find the reason behind this issue.
Please provide some more information as below:
1. Your OS
2. The version of Adobe Reader on your system (Help > About Adobe Reader)
3. The printer model being used.
4. Is the issue specific to a certain PDF or all PDFs in general. Does it happen with: http://helpx.adobe.com/content/help/en/acrobat/release-note/release-notes-acrobat-reader/_ jcr_content/main-pars/download/file.res/Acrobat_Reader_ReleaseNote_10.1.4.pdf

Cannot Print, no pages were selected to print!

Hi,
I've seen this error message in a lot of discussions online but yet I haven't been able to solve it. I'm running adobe reader XI (11.0.0).
When I print some PDF documents i get the error stating that "no pages were selected to print". When I look at the document properties I see that all the documents that I get this problem with is version 1.4.
When i try to print a document in version 1.7 it works just fine. Is this by design? Can't I print PDF-documents version 1.4 in this version of adobe reader?
Best regards
Peter

I've actually seen a solution for this quite recently, but I don't remember what it was. And of course the forum search is useless...
Can you try if disabling Protected Mode could be it [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].

Adobe Reader XI - No pages were selected to print

Trying to print PDF's in Adobe Reader XI when trying to print the error message "No pages were selected to print" appears. Trying to print from a network printer, the printer itself is a Dell 2135cn MFP PCL6. I'm working on a cloud server and a colleague of mine seems to have no problem with the issue with printing PDF's to this printer.
Took a look into the issue and attempted to save the file to the desktop, print the file as an image and checked all the properties were correct these all seemed to show no effect on the situation. Used CutePDF to build a new PDF and tried that as well which didn't work. Printed a test page to the printer to see if it printed which it did. Seems I'm only able to print from other programs just not PDF.

HI ,
Kindly follow the below mentioned steps:-
On the Print window select your printer.
Click on advanced tab
select Print as an image
Click Ok.
Try to Print

I opened a new document and a popup messages says; "The document could not be autosaved." Pages won't allow me to manually save or duplicate document. What's up?

I opened a new document in Pages 5.2 and a Pop up message appears; "the document could not be autosaved." First time I have seen this. Went to manually save the docement and another message appears; "the document "Untitled" could not be saved as "Project Portfolio" [my document title]. Then, Pages would not let me duplicate the document.
I suspect something may be missing and I need to reload Pages. Is there another way?
Thanks

Adobe Acrobat Pro 9, "This document could not Printed" then "No pages were selected"

Windows 7, Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 (latest update)
I have been researching this issue for days and can't find a solution. I am using Acrobat not Reader, there is not an option to uncheck the "enable protected mode" in Arcobat. The only error Adobe says I can have printing is different from the one I'm getting. Can anyone answer this?

Hi Josh ,
Try re installing the printer subsystem and see if that works.

Adobe Reader 9.1 Cannot print - No pages were selected

When trying to print a PDF on a new Dell PC using Windows XP, sp3, I get a message in a window that says Document cannot be printed. Click ok and the next message is No pages were selected to print. The All button is selected and the message stays the same.

For your problem, I'm assuming other programs already print without problem. My only recommendation is backup your system, format, install only your OS and printer, and see if that hits it. Get a fresh copy of Adobe reader, maybe off a magazine CD - the downloads off internet are usually only download managers that install themselves on your system and then download the actual program. Stay away - possible errors can creep in. And maybe stay away from the Adobe Reader install package you have at the moment - mark it suspect. Download your printer software anew.
Basically start fresh. If it works then, I'm guessing a software conflict on your old system is the cause, or your install media you used for your old install was corrupt, only 2 of many possibilities.
But the key here is to make a "ghost" backup of your current system so you can go look for the problem afterwards. Of course, I don't even know if there is backup software like ghost out there for a mac.
Also, I think your mac probably has recovery CDs. Avoid those - get CDs of your OS only. Make sure you install only the OS and printer software - possibly even only the printer driver, not the printer software. The newest latest and greatest versions of all of them.
And easiest probably is to put in a different hard disk for this test - saves you from backing up.
My thoughts are that Adobe Reader should work on your system. It's a software configuration issue. So something you've installed is preventing things from working correctly. Especially since your other programs print to the same printer driver without hassle. But your first step is to get Adobe Reader to print again on a fresh start and prove it still can work, then add stuff until it stops working and blame the last thing you installed.
The actual error, as we've learnt, might be completely unrelated to "no pages were selected".
If you've done all that and still no joy, try a different printer with different software. Then try a different printer cable. Then you've got to move on to changing the machine so you can get away from the ports on your current system, but by this time we're at the point of giving up hope, I hope you don't have to go there. Maybe you could install a peripheral card in your system to add a new port, but that's also more of a hassle than it's worth.
Hope this helps.

"The Document Could Not be Printed" "There were no pages selected to print"

OSX 10.6.6
Acrobat Pro 9.4.1
I am getting this error when printed from certain PDF files. My best guess is it is a font conflict because if I change the font in the document and re-export the file the document prints fine. But changing the font (and it happens with multiple fonts) is not an option.
Most of my documents are very large (up to 1,500 pages) and I use an InDesign plug in to merge data to create my PDFs.
I can print the document out of InDesign CS3 without any problems. If I open the file in Apple's Preview it prints or if I log out and log back in under a different user it prints.
But when this documents are printing out of acrobat I get those errors. It won't print to any of my mupliple printers (USB or network).
Spent an hour on the phone with Adobe today and got no answers at all. They are telling me it a corrputed user issue. (that is only effected in acrobat when printing certain documents.... OK).
With all the messing around I have done I'm guessing it has something to do with certain fonts during the export of the PDF from InDesign.
If anyone has any ideas or suggestions, please let me know. I have been fighting with this issue for a while now and today it is causing a major issue.
Just let me know if you need any additional information and thanks in advance for your help.

I was also receiving the message "The Document Could Not be Printed" I am on 10.6.4 with Acrobat 9.4.1. I did not get the second part of the message though "There were not pages selected to print". Anyway, I got mine to work by going to Preferences - Print & Fax. I selected my printer and clicked Options & Supplies. Under the driver tab I changed the "Print Using:" box to Generic PostScript Printer. I'm not sure if this is what you are supposed to do. I'm not an expert but it worked for me so I am going with it.

Printing error "The document could not be printed", ok "There were no pages selected to print" WHY?

I have a file that is 2.52MB and when I go to print it it gives me the error box "The document could not be printed" I click OK and get "There were no pages selected to print" I made sure that I chose the All pages button. I also tried the Pages and selected all the pages. But here is the funny part. I have Adobe Profesinal and I have converted imged PDF' to searchable PDF's meany times. Although the original document was already searchable I ran the convertion tool on the original searchable PDF and now the file is 33.5MB and now I can print this document. Is there a security tool that was added to the original document?

Printing error messsage "The document could not be printed","There were no pages selected to print"

Two error messages "The document could not be printed", followed by "There were no pages selected to print" pops up when printing a PDF document to a HP designJet 750c+ from a windows 7 machine if "process on Computer" option is chosen from the Advanced tab. It works fine from an xp machine. I have tried on both PDF versions 9.0.0 and XI.
If "process on computer" option is not chosen, then it prints fine but it takes atleast 10- 15 min for the plotter to print.
Any Suggestions???

Thanks Sara,
No, I've deselected the "Enable Enhanced Security" and again I see this 2 error windows.

Document could not be printed, No pages selected | But they were selected

Although the pages were selected the following error messages were received. I verified the HP Officejet 6700 Premium drivers and Acrobat Reader were updated.

Windows 7 Home Premium

Document could not be printed - no pages selected

I attempted to print a range of pages of a pdf document. Acrobat says the document could not be printed because there were no pages selected to print. This was not true. I was able to print a range of pages from Apple Preview, so that means the file is OK. Therefore, Acrobat Pro has a bug. I am using Yosemite on my iMac, with Acrobat XI.

Hi -
Maybe this will help others get around or solve this issue. I was trying to print a 67MB PDF created in INDD (similar to others created and printed that day) and got the same messages as other posters:
Document could not be printed
There were no pages selected to print (even though All was selected)
I updated to 11.0.10 and continued to get these messages.
Ultimately Distiller was the solution.
cheers all

Document could not be printed - no pages selected to print

I am running into this well-known issue with several documents, but unfortunately none of the fixes I have come across have worked. Some background:
-Using Windows 7 Pro
-Happening with both Adobe Reader XI and Acrobat X, clean installs. and happening on multiple computers, with multiple printers, with multiple domain users.
-Have tried repairing both installations, no success.
-Have tried disabling protected view, changing size of the fit, letting printer determine colors, printing in greyscale, changing setting for "view documents in PDF/A mode" to "never."
-Print as image works, but quality is unacceptable.
-It seems to be isolated mainly to Xerox printers, as I have no issues printing to an HP printer. I am trying different models of Xeroxes with no success, however. I have reinstalled printer driver and verified updated driver for all, issue persists. Printer models are Xerox ColorQube 8700X and 9203
-The PDFs are from different sources, so I can't pinpoint it to one website. Documents contain various financial info, so I can't post here. Any help would be appreciated. I'm probably going to have to try a different pdf reader for these, but that is not ideal, since multiple people need to print these and are comfortable using Adobe software.

I was also receiving the message "The Document Could Not be Printed" I am on 10.6.4 with Acrobat 9.4.1. I did not get the second part of the message though "There were not pages selected to print".
