Einen zweiten Adobe PDF Drucker einrichten

Hallo,
ich habe hier ein Problem, bei dem ich nicht mehr weiter weiß.
Wir haben Adobe Acrobat 7.0.0 Prof. im Einsatz. Da wir aber mehrere Programme (z.B. Datenbanken) haben, die auf den PDF Drucker zugreifen, benötigen wir mehrere Adobe PDF Drucker mit verschiedensten Einstellungen.
Als Beispiel: Der PDF Drucker mit den Standarteinstellungen soll für den normalen Anwender bestehen bleiben. Wenn jedoch über eine Datenbank mehrere PDFs erstellt werden, dann soll ein zweiter PDF Drucker (z.B. mit einem anderen Output Folder) hergenommen werden.
Ich bin schon soweit, daß ich einen 2. Drucker per VBS installiere. Leider kann ich in der Registry die Druckeroptionen zwar ändern, aber der Drucker nimmt diese nicht an.
Es liegt anscheint an diesem Registryeintrag:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Print\Printers\Adobe PDF]
"ChangeID"=dword:004ab389
Gibt es von Adobe ein Programm, mit dem ich einen 2. Drucker installieren kann? Das ganze müsste automatisierungsfähig sein, da wir die Drucker auf ca. 3000 Client PCs erstellen müssen.
Dank an alle im Voraus.
Robert

Hallo Sandra!
Wie du sehen kannst, habe ich keine Antwort bekommen.
Und gelöst habe ich das Problem auch nicht.
Benutze auf diesem PC also weiterhin die Versin 10.
Werde allerdings demnächst von Windows XP uf Windows 7 "upgraden" und hoffe, dass die Version 11 dann läuft.
Liebe Grüße

Transparente Farben mit Adobe PDF drucken

Hallo,
kann mir jemand sagen, wie ich mit dem Adobe PDF-Drucker von Adobe X Pro transparente Farben ducken kann?
Es soll eine PDF aus einer Anwendung heraus erstellt werden, die mit transparenten Farben überlagert wird.
Beim drucken über Adobe PDF werden diese Farben aber leider als Vollfarbe dargestellt, sodaß der darunterliegende Teil verdeckt wird.
Weiß jemand Rat

1. Du musst uns schon sagen, mit welcher Anwendung Du arbeitest, um Dir helfen zu können.
2. Diese Anwendung muss entweder die Transparenz reduzieren, also flachrechnen, dann ist im PDF keine Transparenz mehr. Das geschieht immer, wenn ein PDF über Drucken erstellt wird oder wenn ein PDF1.3 und darunter gespeichert oder exportiert wird oder
3. diese Anwendung muss PDF mit Live-Transparenz exportieren, das heißt es muss sich mindestens um ein PDF1.4 oder höher handeln, ein PDF nach dem Standard PDF/X4 (2008) kann so eine Transparenz enthalten. Transparenz kann über Drucken oder Distiller nicht erstellt werden. Es gibt KEINEN Drucker, der transparente PDFs erstellen kann, geht nicht. Genausowenig kann PostScript oder EPS mit Transparenz umgehen.
Wenn Du ein PDF mit Transparenz erzeugen willst, dann musst Du auf eine Anwendung zurücgreifen, die das kann, das sind Photoshop ab Version 3 (der Pionier der Transparenz), InDesign ab Version 2.0, Illustrator ab Version 9.0 und ein paar mehr. Diese Anwendung erzeugen transparente PDFs ausschließlich über SICHERN oder EXPORTIEREN, nicht über Drucken!

Acrobat OCX Drucker einrichten

Hallo,
ich habe folgendes Problem.
Ich binde in einer .Net (C#) Anwendung das AcrobatReader OCX (AxAcroPDF)
ein.
Neben dem AcrobatReader Dokument (es können auch mehrere Instanzen des
AcrobatReader-Controls geladen sein) werden auch noch andere Dokumente in
einer Druckvorschau dargestellt.
Wenn ich jetzt alle Dokumente Drucken will, möchte ich zu Beginn 1 mal einen
Druck-Dialog (Drucker einrichten) anzeigen. Dieser Drucker und die Einstellungen
sollen für alle Dokumente gültig sein.
Ist es möglich an das OCX diesen Druckdialog zu übergeben, bzw. den Drucker
einzustellen?
Die einzige Möglichkeit die ich gefunden habe den Drucker auszuwählen ist
this.axAcroPDF1.printWithDialog();
was ich suche ist etwas wie
this.axAcroPDF1.PrintDialog = MeinPrintDialog
Für jede Hilfe die zur Lösung des Problems beiträgt oder andere Ideen (außer Fremdkomponenten ;))
bin ich sehr dankbar (z.B. DDE oder API Befehle).
Patrick

Hi Danke für den Tipp! Hab ich gerade versucht. Aber mache wohl irgendetwas falsch?
1. Ich habe im Distiller einen neuen Ordner auf dem Desktop erstellt "PDF druck" in dem dann automatisch 2 Order waren (in und out).
2. habe ich in der Druckereinstellung den Ordner "in" angewählt
3. habe ich gedruck
das erste Dokument hat er ohne murren genommen dann kam eine Meldung das auf das Dokument nicht zugegriffen werden kann da es von einer anderen Anwendung benutz wird oder so ähnlich. dann hat er mich beim 2 Dokument schon wieder nach dem Namen gefragt ?? Kann das sein das das nicht geht weil alle Dokument1.pdf heißen und Sie dann ja doppelt im Ordner liegen? Zumindest habe ich jetzt mal 2 der 3 Testseiten im Distiller weiß aber nicht wie ich jetzt weiter komme abgesehen davon das 1 seite fehlt. Hab dann nochmal die Druckereinstellung den Ordner überprüft aber da war dann auf einmal wieder der Standartpfad drin?
Was mache ich falsch?

PDF-Drucker funktioniert nicht mehr

Ich habe Acrobat Standard 7 auf Windows XP installiert. Seit kurzem funktioniert das Erzeugen von PDF-Dateien aus Drittanwendungen (über PDF-Drucker) nicht mehr. Ich komme bis zum Fenster "Adobe PDF wird erstellt", dann tut sich nichts mehr. Ich habe Acrobat schon deinstalliert und wieder installiert, habe auch mal eine Testversion XI installiert. Es funktioniert trotzdem nicht. Hat dieses Problem schon jemand gehabt? Könnte es sein, dass durch ein automatisches Update einer anderen Anwendung hier etwas blockiert wird? Vielen Dank!!!

"I have Acrobat Standard 7 is installed on Windows XP. Recently stopped working, the creation of PDF files from third party applications (via PDF printer). I come up to the "Adobe PDF is created," then does nothing more. I have already uninstalled and reinstalled Acrobat,'ve also installed a trial version XI. It still does not work. Has anyone had this problem already? Could it be that through an automatic update another application something is being blocked? Thank you!"
When you say the "PDF is created," what do you mean that nothing more happens? What are you expecting to happen. If you expect the PDF to open in Acrobat, you have to check the option in the printer properties for that to happen. That is also true with AA XI. Is the PDF actually created as you indicate? If so, open AA 7 and from the file menu select the file and see if it opens. Assuming it does, does it also open if you double click on the PDF? If it opens in Acrobat and not from the file menu, you have an XP file association issue, not an Acrobat issue. In that case, right click on the PDF and select "open with" and select Acrobat. Check the box to always open with Acrobat and then open the file.

How to install Adobe PDF toolbar in Internet Explorer after uninstalling IE 10 and installing IE 9

Hello. I need help installing Adobe PDF convert web page to pdf toolbar to my Internet Explorer 9. I uninstalled Internet Explorer 11 and 10 because I could not open pdf files in IE 10 or 11 -- trying to open pdf documents froze/locked up Internet Explorer and I had to use Task Manager to exit Internet Explorer every time I tried opening a pdf document. I have downgraded to IE 9 with the hope that I will have better luck.
I am using Windows 7 operating system. I have Adobe Acrobat X Pro installed on my computer.
Now that I downgraded to IE 9, I've lost the Adobe convert web page to pdf toolbar. It is not even in my choice of add ons in Internet Explorer when I go to Manage Add Ons. How do I get the Adobe toolbar add on back?
I lost my Adobe Acrobat X Pro disk so do not have that to help me in any way. What can I do?
Your help is greatly appreciated!

If it is an issue of the AA X disk, you can download from http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html. Be sure to create a replacement CD in case it is not available in the future. You will still need your S/N for any reinstall. You can usually get that from the Adobe site as long as you registered Acrobat (http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html).

Adobe PDF Printer not working as print driver; 9.5.5 (pro) with Windows 7, 64 bit

I have installed, repaired, uninstalled and re-installed Acrobat Pro 9.5.5 on a newly formatted SSD with Windows 7, 64 bit on my desktop machine. The program was installed from Acrobat Pro 9.0.0 and updated within the program. I have the program also installed on my laptop, and the Adobe PDF Printer driver is working properly on my laptop.
On my desktop with the newly formatted SSD, the Adobe PDF printer driver is not working. Note that I am using the printer driver, and not any pdf creation techniques within MS Office or other programs.
When I go to the Adobe PDF printing preferences on my desktop, I only get a generic, two tab window open. When I print a file to this printer on my desktop machine, I do not get a window opening that asks where to create the pdf or what to name it, and I never see any files created. In MS Word, the Create PDF option under the Acrobat tab works and opens a dialog to ask the name and location to save, and then opens a PDF Maker progress window and properly creates the file. I can also save a file as an .eps or .ps file and use Distiller to create the pdf. However I cannot get the Adobe PDF printer driver in my Devices and Printers to work properly, although it works just fine on my laptop with the same program (Pro 9.5.5) and same Windows version (7, 64 bit).
Repairing, uninstalling and re-installing does not solve the problem. Acrotray.exe *32 process is running. Any ideas on why this won't run properly on my desktop, but will run on a similarly configured laptop?
On my laptop, I get a full, (7) tabl menu with all the normal options:

I found this answer from Deepak Chauhan on another forum, and it solved this problem!
Try this to add Adobe PDF printer manually on Windows 7, and Windows Vista.
If windows 7 is Enterprise or better edition: (Admin rights required)
Start>search for printmanagement.msc and open the print management module
Expand the print server and expand the computer name to see availbale printers, drivers and printer ports.
- from printers ensure there's no Adobe PDF printer, if there is delete it
- go to ports and delete the PDF ports (the ones ending in *.pdf)
- go to drivers and delete the PDF converter.
Take note if any errors occur, but continue with the following steps regardless.
If on windows 7 home edition, just goto start>Devices and Printers and ensure PDF pritner is not listed.
Then open the registry (if any erors deleting these keys happen, see below)
1: go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Print\Printers
delete any adobe PDF printer subkey present
2: go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Monitors
delee the PDF port monitor if present
3: go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Printers
again delete and pdf printer subkey
If any erros occur, you need to set the owner of the key to the currently logged in admin user, then ensure that user has full control.
Do this by right-click the key and selecting permissions, clicking on advanced, then the owner tab.
Once you've all that has been done, open a command line as administrator.
Copy and pate the following commands in order
1: net stop spooler
2: rundll32.exe setupapi.dll,InstallHinfSection AdobePDFPortMonitor 128 C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Acrobat\Xtras\AdobePDF\AdobePDF.inf
3: net start spooler
4:rundll32.exe printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /if /b "Adobe PDF" /f "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Acrobat\Xtras\AdobePDF\AdobePDF.inf" /r "Documents\*.pdf" /m "Adobe PDF Converter"
That should set back the pdf printer.
This seemed to provide the link that provided the Adobe PDF Settings tab to the Adobe PDF Printing Preferences that was missing!

Memory Problems with Adobe PDF iFilter for 64-bit

In preparation to rebuild my Windows Search Index, I installed the Adobe PDF iFilter for 64-bit on my system (Vista Business 64). When I finally rebuilt the index, I wasn't too surprised by what I saw happen, namely, the SearchFilter.exe process would kick in whenever I wasn't using the system and just eat RAM. One time I turned it on and it had allocated over 4,000 MB (and my system only has 4,030 MB available) so of course it was forcing all the other processes to hard fault (ie. everything was moving like molasses--for example, it took 20 minutes to put the thing to sleep). But I just let it do it's work, figuring that perhaps this was to be expected relative to the small library of PDF's that I've accumulated on my computer, ranging from LaTeX generated text files, to containers for hi-res scans. So, after a day and a half of basically not using my laptop, everything finally calmed down and I enjoyed the benefits of searching the content of my library from the Windows Start menu--for a short while.
However, to my dismay I've encountered the problem that this freezing of my computer would now occur after everytime I download a new PDF (in this particular case they were Google Books scans) and then left the computer to idle. Again, the SearchFilter.exe would allocate all of my RAM for itself and just push everything else onto the Virtual RAM, which means the SLOWEST possibly fetching you can get. I had to uninstall as this was making my computer unusable for 15-30 minutes after each idle. Everything is back in working order without the iFilter, but I would like to know if anyone has reported such problems on x64 systems. Obviously, I will also report the problem to Microsoft, since the search engine should certainly have the precaution to handle such memory problems.   However, it is a problem that is created by the Adobe PDF iFilter interacting with the Windows Search engine.

Hello,
We believe we have figured this out. It looks like it has to do with the length of the default folder location for the Adobe iFilter.
I was able to reproduce the issue and the following resolved it for me. See if this resolves it for you all as well.
Here is how to get Adobe Version 11 PDF filter to work.
1 . If you haven’t already, run the following in SQL Server:
Sp_fulltext_service ‘Load_os_resources’, 1
Go
--you might also need to run:
sp_fulltext_service ‘Verify_signature’,0 --This is used to validate trusted iFilters. 0 disables it. So use with caution.
--go
2. Stop SQL Server. (Make sure FDHost.exe stops)
3.
Uninstall the Adobe ifilter (because it defaulted to having spaces or the folder name is too long).
4.
Reinstall the Adobe iFilter and when it prompts for where to install it, change it to: C:\Program Files\Adobe\PDFiFilter
5.  Once the installation finishes, go the computer’s Environment variables. Add the following to the PATH.
C:\Program Files\Adobe\PDFiFilter\BIN
NOTE: it must include the BIN folder
NOTE: If you had the OLD location that included spaces, remove it from the path environment variable.
6. Start SQL Server
7.  IF you had an existing Full-text index on PDFs, drop the full-text index and recreate it.
8. You should now get results when you run sys.dm_fts_index_keywords('db','tblname') --Note: Change db to be the actual database name and tblname to be the actual table name.
Give this a try and see if this fixes yours.
Sincerely,
Rob Beene, MSFT

How do I display the web address within Adobe PDF Reader 10 & IE 9 64-bit?

Until a week ago, I was using IE 9 32-bit version together with Adobe PDF Reader 10. When I would try to open a PDF file from within the browser, it would and the Web Address would continue to display at the top of the window while browing the PDF document. I could then continue using IE 9 and move on to other pages and etc...
Now, I have swtiched to using the IE 9 64-bit version. What happens now is that when I enter an address in the web browser and it's a direct link to a PDF file example: https://www.technicalindicatorindex.com/newsletter/bpdf/TII_Newsletter_1686a_10.11.11_7055 475115.pdf ), it opens up with no problems, but I no longer see the IE 9 Web Address shown anywhere. So in essence, that page becomes a Adobe PDF program window and I loose my IE 9 access. I guess the PDF files are no longer displayed within the browser (althought I have it check ON).
Am I missing something?

I did write there, but no replies
I guess that with Adobe Reader 10.1.1 running with IE 9.x in x64 bit mode, you cannot open the PDF within explorer, as it does it outside it as a separate Window?
Correct?

"Save to Adobe PDF" app

Just upgraded my iMac at work to Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard.... finally!!!!
But still running CS4 with Acrobat 9 (v9.5.2)
I edit master files using MS Word that are saved on my local server.
I distribute those files as PDFs saved to another server.
When updating files under Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard, printing with the PDF printer driver, I had a very fast simple work flow:
   Cick Print (Adobe PDF Printer was the default),
   navigate to the desired folder,
   click on the file to replace and then
   click Replace.
But under Snow Leopard, this workflow is now messed up:
   Click Print
   Click Continue in Save to Adobe PDF popup menu
   navigate to the desired folder
This is where the mess really starts.
If the file is new, not an update, and I just want to save it, "Microsoft Word - " is always prepended to the file name, and there is always a dual extension: ".docx.pdf" So I **always** have to edit it.
If the file is being saved as an update, when I click on the file to update, the file name no longer has an extension, not even a hidden one, just nothing at all. This is OK as far as Macs are concerned, the file still shows as a PDF file in Get Info. But Windows PCs (where these files will be used) no longer have a clue as to file type. So I **always** have to type ".pdf" after the file name.
   Finally I can click Save or Replace
And, if for any reason, I click "Cancel", Save to Adobe PDF **always** says "an error occurred while saving the PDF".
So... in this day and age, why isn't this any smarter???? Why is this app making me work more????
1) Is there any way to bypass the annoying unwanted PDF Settings/PDF Creation popup menu so I don't **always** have to click Continue??? Why isn't there a Preferences / Options menu item for this so I can pull it up only when needed???? Why always interrupt my workflow????
2) Is the default file name with "Microsoft Word - " prepended to it an Adobe action or an MS Word action???? Who do I complain to about this??? Its possible that this is an MS Word abberation, as test prints in MS Excel and Mozilla Firefox don't show this problem.
3) Why do I have to keep screwing around with extensions???? Can't someone do some intelligent programming to make this simple and automatic for the user??????????????
4) in the normal course of pressing offered buttons such as Cancel, I should never see an error pop up.
Now, when I get home today, where I'm running Mac OS X 10.7 Lion with CS5, I'll have to see if this is any smarter.

Hi,
Are you still experiencing this issue. Let me know what is the version of Adobe application installed on your machine.

Acrobat won't print to installed printer, only to adobe pdf file

This is a sudden problem, started about a week ago. When I open or download a pdf file - any file - and try to print, the print box reads "adobe pdf." No matter which installed printer I try to print to, the entry flashes back to adobe pdf. This happens in Acrobat 7. I downloaded the newest version of Reader, and it does the same thing. No, the print to file box is not checked. These files can be opened and printed from any other computer in the office, so it's not the files. Using Windows 7 and the printer is HPx476dn. Help?

Hi Maureen,
Can you please elaborate your issue?
Do you want to set a different printer as default printer?
If yes, then please follow the steps in this KB doc. Change the system default printer

Aadesh

Problem with "Save as Adobe PDF format" in Excel and Word

Hi
When I use printing zone in Excel and make a «Save as Adobe PDF format» (menu File / Save as Adobe PDF), the first save is well done. But when I make it a second time, what's not in the printing zone is printing in the document.
I have also problem with the «Save as Adobe PDF format» in Word. The images superposition are not well print.
I'm using Windows 7 in french, Office 2010 french and Adobe Acrobat XI standard. All is in the latest version.
Thanks

The Save As PDF feature in Office2008 Call up a PDF Creator similar to the AdobePDF Print Driver. whch OX.6 can't use.
To create Pdf you have to use method used:
http://indesignsecrets.com/acrobats-adobe-pdf-printer-replaced-in-snow-leopard.php
Not before you attempt to use this method if Rossetta is not installed. pop in your Systems DVD and install Rosetta. Then follow directions to install the Adobe Quality PDF Automator Script which will show up in the Print Menu. Click on Print > then click PDF. Then Click on Adobe quality PDF. AS for setting up Job options and other details Supposedly your suppose to have access. But I have no idea.
First thing Rosetta should be installed out of the box. and Second Adobe should install this Script from their installer. So their should be no intervention from the user. it should just work. Early report when OSX.6 first came out almost no one was able to get this to work. and I see periodic reports that people still can't get it tork and they have to to resort to saving as .ps files then droping on distiller.
Good luck.

Hi... I would like to purchase a Tablet Sony Xperia Z 2 10.1 (the last one of the Z series) and I was told that Adobe does not support Sony anymore.... I need to be able to open and read Adobe PDF files and I would like to know if this tablet can still us

Hi... I would like to purchase a Tablet Sony Xperia Z 2 10.1 (the last one of the Z series) and I was told that Adobe does not support Sony anymore.... I need to be able to open and read Adobe PDF files and I would like to know if this tablet can still use Flash Player...
Is there anyo who can help me with this? I asked in the shop and I was told "yes of course" , but when I contacted Sony directly I was advised to check with Adobe as apparently in the recent months Adobe and Sony haven't been getting along anymore...

You may be mixing up two entirely different Adobe products.
1. Adobe Flash Player. Needed to view web pages designed with Flash. Not needed to view PDF files. Not available for Android (not just Sony).
2. Adobe Reader. Reads PDF files. However, the Android can also read most PDF files without needing Adobe Reader.

Printing from Appleworks using Adobe PDF Printer

I have a large number of Appleworks files to convert to PDF. At the moment, I open the file, do a command-p, choose PDF, then "Save as PDF". This method works fine. I would like, however, to automate the process, and doing so would be much easier if the Adobe PDF Printer would print with the expected settings when I click the "Print" button. Is there any way to make this happen? It seems strange that it is not the default behavior, considering the fact that the PDF printer is only a virtual printer, and would never be used to print to paper.
Peter

I have a g5 running Tiger. I updated my profile after posting my original question.
The "Save as PDF..." button works, but not the button on the right that says "Print". It is important to me to be able to use that button, because it forces the application to print to the Adobe PDF virtual printer.

Firefox crashes when opening any Adobe pdf document from internet. This only seems to happens with firefox 6.0.2. Pls assist how to solve problem

Good day,
Please note Firefox is crashing every time I tried to open a pdf document I find in any internet webside. This is happening since I have installed Firefox 6.0.2. I temporarily solved the issue going back to Firefox 5. The problem is that my Mac installs automatically all the updates that might come from Firefox, including new or greater versions.... So, here I am again with Firefox 6.0.2 and not able to open Adobe pdf documents.....
Would you please kindly assist to fix this issue...? Please note I have systematically sent a report every time Firefox has crashed, so you might have quite a few by now!
Many thanks in advance for all your help and assistance.
Francesca.
