Duplex printing using Adobe Reader XI, v11.0.04

I am using Adobe Reader XI, v11.0.04 on my MacBook Air (IOS 10.9 (13A603) Mavericks. When I go to print out a document there is no option for duplex (two sided) printing. I get a message that says this is a property of the operating system and upon sending me to another entry form (presumably from the operating system) there is a place to check "black & white" and "2 sided" printing but when I check "OK" it goes back to the Adobe Reader form for printing and will not priint out using 2 sided printing. Kindly advise how to do this. I am tired of wasting paper.

Hi wilsco ,
Thank You for posting on the forums. Do you have Acrobat and Reader both of them installed on the same system?
Kindly help with the exact version of both Reader and Acrobat.
You can try printing the file as an image by going to the advanced settings in print dialouge box.
Try updating the driver for your printer as well.
Thanks,
Vikrantt Singh

i am trying to print using adobe reader and suddenly, i can't. please help.

Might be helpful to have more details like, what version of Reader, where you are getting the PDF's and what "exactly" happens when you try and print (along with the steps taken to get to that point). And it sounds like Allstate has something to do with it. Might be helpful to know where they come in.

Set Simplex/Duplex Print for Adobe Reader documents

Hi,
I'm developing documents using Adobe Acrobat Pro that our users will open with Adobe Reader 8.0 or higher. I need to set the Simplex/Duplex print parameters individually by each document.
I've tried adding trusted javascript in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 8.0\Reader\Javascripts directory. I can set the number of copies and lastPage properties but no luck with Simplex/Duplex.
my script includes pp.DuplexType = pp.constants.duplexTypes.DuplexFlipLongEdge;
The Simplex/Duplex works if the document is opened with Adobe Acrobat Pro but not using Adobe Reader 8.0
I see a posting suggesting "Cos level APIs - see the PDF Reference 1.7" but do not find anything in PDF Reference 1.7.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
I see Acrobat/Reader 9.0 is available. Is there anything regarding passing collate=true/false in 9.0?

I am having issues with printing using Adobe Reader

I am currently using adobe reader and have not been able to print with my HP DeskJet 3050, I have both reinstalled my drivers and Reader, yet they both will not work. Every time I click print it brings up the printing options screen, from there I have tried the following: I have tried printing the document as an image, changing the language to see if the printer itself could not handle the printing language and I have also tried to save the document as a preprint and printing it from there yet it is still not working. Here are all of the notes from Reader showing the build and features:

Why do prepopulated forms not open up correctly to be read and printed using Adobe Reader?

We are creating forms that we send to clients. Generally the clients are using Adobe Reader to open the pdf's. Why can they not see prepopulated data on the forms. They need to click the area where the data is to see it. When they attempt to print it, it comes out blank.

Hi,
Did you use Acrobat to create the prepopulated forms? If you did, please submit your question to Acrobat forum. The team there can help you.
Thanks,
Wenlan

Can not Printing using Adobe Reader V9.0, OS is Windows Vista

Help Me Please! I can not print in Adobe Reader. This is what is happening: I select print, the status bar shows pages being sent to the printer, the printer Hicups, clicks, clangs, clunks, and Burps and nothing comes out; No error, No copy. I'm running V9.0 but the same thing happened in version 8. I thought it was something to do with the down-load. What gives?

Sorry for disappearing; gotta make a livin'
No, I haven't looked for an updated driver for my printer but I will give that a try. I was able to print using the "print as image" function but it really bogged my system down to pre-Pentium days. I'll let you know if the driver update works. Thanks for reaching out!

Duplex printing in adobe reader XI

Ladies and Gentlemen,
I write because I have a problem with two-sided printing PDF files in Adobe Reader XI.
Summary of the problem:
When printing a PDF file that contains two pages I select the option "Print on both sides of the paper" parameters "by Flip on Long Edge" and the orientation of the "Auto. Vertical / horizontal. The result of these operations, when I print. Is that the first page prints correctly. On the back of the cards are printed the information from the second page in the correct format, but with the information from the first in a unique way, namely by me look as if they were printed in a mirror image.
Prior to printing that is done smoothly, printed data to improve on the first and on the other side. Unfortunately, I am unable to say what was the turning point after which it changed, because I'm not a direct user of this computer. The printer supports duplex printing function, of course. Other programs such as Word office document are printing correctly on both sides as expected.
The steps that I took to correct the problem:
1. Restart your computer.
2. Restart the printer.
3. Re-install the program Adobre Reader.
4. The use of different combinations of print settings in Adobe Reader.
The type of computer:
-Computer PC.
-Operating-System: Windows XP SP3.
-Printer Connected directly to the computer using the USB cable.
Sincerely

Thanks for the option. It did work setting the print as image on. Does this mean there is something wrong with how the PDF was created or that Adobe Reader is just having a problem reading it?

Printing using Adobe Reader not working

I am using .NET to open .pdf file with "Print" option. This should print that .pdf file on default printer of the system. But in reality, when I run my program, it opens blank Adobe Reader window and just hangs there, no page gets printed. My C# code looks like following:
Process process1 = new Process();
process1.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = true;
process1.StartInfo.Verb = "Print";
process1.StartInfo.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Normal;
process1.StartInfo.FileName = completeFileName;
process1.Start();
Above code could also be written in vbScript.
Can anyone let me know why Acrobat Reader does not print any page?
Thank you in advance.

The paper trays are both 8" x 11". The top tray has checks, the bottom tray has plain paper. When I go to print, the print dialog defaults to the last saved setting which is supposed to use the lower tray, however when checking the setting it says upper tray. I have to switch to either another setting or to the Standard setting, then back to my saved setting in order for the paper tray to be set correctly on the lower tray. I would expect that whatever setting the saved setting has, it would change to the necessary settings and use it instead of using a default settings. I don't know if this is a bug in the OS X or the HP driver.
For example. I go to print in Safari, the printer says OfficeJet 7140xi, the Preset setting says OfficeJet (Lower Tray). When I check Paper Type/Quality, the paper tray is set to Upper Tray. I switch the Preset to Standard and back to OfficeJet (Lower Tray) and check the Paper Type/Quality and now the paper tray is set to Lower Tray. So, initially, when the print dialog comes up, it ignores the Preset settings and defaults to some other settings and manually you have to switch the Preset to another setting and back again in order to get the correct settings.

Printing using Adobe Reader XI

When I was running Adobe Acrobat my documents printed almost immediately. However, since I downloaded Adobe Reader XI and try to print a pdf document it becomes a slow process. I am using a HP wireless printer and from the moment I hit print it will take a couple of minutes or longer before it actually prints the document. Any suggestions?

FireFoz 4 won't print using adobe reader 10, Mac 10, help

Using the UPS ship and click, I cannot print a label. (it works fine from Safari) USPS say that the latest firefox and latest Adobe are incompatible, and I should go back to an older version.
Mac 10.6.7, Firefox 4.0.1, Adobe reader 10.0.3
Help

Thanks for getting back. Yes, as I mentioned, I did uninstall all other Flash Players and restarted because I had read about that tip. I also tried downloading it from the .pkg and no luck there. Also from Safari instead of from Firefox. Is this Flash Player 10.3.183.7 a stand-alone plug in or is it an update to one I should already have? Also, what is the Flash Player Debugger for. I am a mac OS 10.6.8, intel based. Any other suggestions are appreciated.

Issue with remote printing using adobe reader

We have a customized forms, with very simple javascript to print document on a remote server (printing to a pdf to tiff converter)
//-----------------Do not edit the XML tags--------------------
//<AcroForm>
//<ACRO_source>MAIL:Annot1:MouseUp:Action1</ACRO_source>
//<ACRO_script>
/*********** belongs to: AcroForm:MAIL:Annot1:MouseUp:Action1 ***********/
var pp = this.getPrintParams();
pp.printerName = \\\\server name\\location;
pp.interactive = pp.constants.interactionLevel.automatic;
this.print(pp);
app.alert("Document sent to printer",3);
app.alert("Please close window after each use",3);
//</ACRO_script>
//</AcroForm>
under windows XP and adobe 9.4 the systme works perfectly.
under windows xp and adobe X or XI, it looks like the document goes to the printer but there is nothing.
under windows 7 and adobe 9.4 it looks like the document goes to the printer but there is nothing.
I can easily map tot he server name\location from windows 7 machine.
debugging did not help (no errors were produced, it is as if the document jut vanished.
Any help will be appreciated.
thank you!

Hi,
What's the operating system of remote PC we log onto? Here, I am not sure that this can help but we can give a try by disabling the following policy setting:
Computer Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Remote Desktop Services\Remote Desktop Session Host\Printer Redirection\Use Remote Desktop Easy Print printer driver first
Regarding this point, the following KB article can be referred to for more information.
The client printer may print the documents by using an incorrect paper size if the "Use Remote Desktop Easy Print printer driver first" policy is enabled

How do I get the "auto portrait/landscape" option to show during printing in Adobe Reader Touch

When I print using Adobe Reader Touch, the "auto portrait/landscape" options does not show up. As a result, all pages in a document are printed in the same orientation even if they are not all of the same orientation in the file itself. I don't believe this is a printer issue because if I use Adobe Reader X (v. 10.1.6) on the same computer/printer, the auto option does show up and the documents print as desired. I use Windows 8. As the video quality of Adobe Reader X is extremely blurry in Windows 8, I would like to be able to use Adobe Reader Touch exclusively. How do I get the latter to give me the "auto portrait/landscape" option during printing?
Thank you,
Pelle

Hello Pelle,
Thanks for the feedback. Our printing code in Adobe Reader Touch doesn't have that capability right now, but since you mention it we should probably do what you're requesting by default. I'll put that into our backlog for a future update, but I can't say yet when it will be available.
In the interim, if you have pages that are different orientations, you can print them in blocks manually to get what you want, but I understand that's a hassle.

Decoding 2D barcode on forms printed from Adobe Reader

We use LiveCycle Designer 8 in Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro to create forms, which are then opened, completed and printed using Adobe Reader, then signed by the user and mailed back.
We believe we can put a 2D paper forms barcode on the form, but if filled in by Adobe Reader the data gets encrypted and so cannot be scanned (though if completed by Acrobat, the data is not encrypted - unfortunately most customers do not have Acrobat)
We heard that you could buy software or a hardware device to enable the received printed forms to be scanned and the 2D data decoded - is this correct still?
Thanks

In regards to the Decoder, this is a piece of software that does the actual decoding of the barcode from a printed and scanned form (or faxed). It can decode barcodes from both TIFF and PDF documents.
If you are using a high-speed scanning solution then you more than likely have a decoder built into your solution. If not, then the decoder is an ideal add-on solution. In fact, with the new Adobe LiveCycle Barcoded Forms ES you can not only decode but you can integrate the data right into your existing workflow quite easily.
For a great overview of the ES line, check out: http://www.adobe.com/products/livecycle/techsummary.html?showMyTab=tab_foundation

We are trying to implement a process so that any document that needs to be printed through our Java application will be printed as PDF using Adobe Reader.

We are trying to implement a process so that any document that needs to be printed through our Java application will be printed as PDF using Adobe Reader.
For which, We created and execute the below command line to call Adobe Reader and print the PDF on a printer.
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" /T "\\<Application Server>\Report\<TEST.PDF>" "<Printer Name>".
Current Situation: The above command line parameter when executed is working as expected in a User's Workspace.
When executed in a command line on the Application Server, it is working as expected.
But, the same is not working while executing it from Deployed environment.
Software being used: 1. Adobe 11.0 enterprise version. 2. Webshpere Application Server 8.5.5.2.
Please let us know if there is a way to enable trace logs in Adobe Reader to further diagnose this issue.

This is the Acrobat.com forum. Your question will have a much better chance being addressed in the Acrobat SDK forum.
