Error message in Adobe Pdf in printer device panel when trying to create a pdf document.  I have CS3

Error message in Adobe Pdf in printer device panel when trying to create a pdf document.  I have CS3 Web Premium with Acrobat Professional 8.  I use it fine on my old computer with Windows XP.  I recently got a new laptop with Windows 7.  I installed all my Adobe programs, and I think they are working.  When I look at Adobe PDF in the device section of the Control Panel it looks okay.  But when I try to print a Word, Photoshop, or HTML page in PDF, nothing happens.  I have tried printing both as File>print and using the PDF tab on the top menu bar.  I look at the device in the control panel and it has the yellow error warning symbol and suggests trying to troubleshoot.  I look at the document list and it says status "error".  When I try troubleshooting Windows suggests doing some Home Sharing and also suggests canceling the document I'm trying to print.  I tried re-installing just Acrobat 8 from CS3 (and have to use Photoshop CS4 disk for shared documents I guess).  I ran into a can't locate adobepdf_dll file, so did a web search on this issue and found a suggestion that I find and use the adobepdf_dll_64 file and may have to (I did have to) remove the "_64" for it to work.  I think I successfully reinstalled using that dll file- no errors came up anyway.  But still when I try printing/converting a photoshop, webpage, or word document into pdf, the pdf device in control panel still gives the error status on the document and gives the same troubleshooting advice.  Help?

I just compared the properties between the two computers.  On the old computer it has the port as "My Documents/*.pdf".  On my new computer it lists the port as "LPT1".  I tried changing the port to "Print as File", but when I try printing a photoshop picture as pdf, I get a "Access Denied".  I then tried to create a new port on the device control panel.  I tried to create a local port "My Documents/*.pdf" port but was denied.  I ten tried to create a new port type and control panel asked for an INF file.  I wonder if this is where my problem lies.  Thoughts?

    ios 8.0.2. Can someone help ??

    Howdy there otss1979,
    It sounds like you are unable to download the iOS 8.0.2 update either, over the air, or using iTunes. If you are updating the software on your phone in Settings > General > software update I would recommend starting with this article:
    Resolve issues with an over-the-air iOS update
    If you are using iTunes, I would use this article instead:
    Resolve iOS update and restore errors in iTunes
    If you are getting a specific error number, the following article will help you get that resolved:
    Resolve iOS update and restore errors
    If this does not resolve the issue, could you please write the error message you are getting word for word for me?
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,

  • Getting error message "the requested item could not be found" when trying to install Firefox on my android.

    I had to uninstall Firefox for Android because I was having problems logging in to sync. I got a support e-mail to uninstall and reinstall because the sync issue had been fixed. I uninstalled the Firefox app and then when I tried to reinstall it I get the error message on my phone "the requested item could not be found." HELP!

    Some supported phones are not displaying Firefox in the Market for some reason. We're still investigating this. You can check if your phone is supported here:
    https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android
    and then download the app directly from here:
    http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/releases/4.0b3/android-r7/multi/
    (Note: If your phone is from AT&T, you will have to search for instructions on "sideloading" the APK file, since AT&T disables the option to install from non-Market sources.)

  • When trying to create a PDF from a website the font doesn't convert properly to a readable format

    Hello,
    As the title states when I find something on a website that I want to create a PDF with, the font that's readable from the website converts once the PDF is created to an unknown format that isn't readable in any language. I'm using Adobe Acrobat XI Pro and quite the novice at using Acrobat, so any info would be a great help. Did try and search around the forum for the issue but I wouldn't really know what to type as I'm not familiar with what the text is converting to.

    Ok so I go to a web page and select something to print. Once I've clicked print I switch over from printer/micosoft xps docu writer/fax and select Adobe PDF. All goes through with a 'Create Adobe PDF' coming up progressing through to eventually save and store. Once I open the file it end up as the picture above. I have the same version on another computer and that works fine but this particular Sony laptop it doesn't seem to work properly. 

  • Adobe reader 8.1.4 crashes when trying to open a pdf link

    Good morning,
    We have an issue with our users. When they try to open a URL pointing to a PDF, Reader 8 crashes after trying to open the link. If I log on as an admin to the machine, the same link opens up fine. There seems to be an issue with the group policy restrictions being applied to the teachers. I look thru our group policies and could not find anything that would stop the normal behavior of Adobe 8 and IE 8 from occurring. Any assistance is appreciated.
    So long,
    Martin Reyes

    Someone may give you and answer here, but you might have more luck in the Reader forum - this is not that forum. It really sounds like a Windows issue as you suggest, but I will let others address this.

  • Error Message With Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 Free Trial Version

    Hi,
    I know that this is a holiday weekend, but I need assistance with Adobe Acrobat 9 Free Trial Version.  I downloaded it, and then created a PDF file from MS Word 2007.  I tried to print, but the "save as" command popped up.  I had already saved it, so it already had a document name.  I tried resaving it and it would not do so.  Here's the error message that I received:
    "Adobe PDF cannot access the file because it is in use by another application process.  Verify that the file is not open by another application or process and try again.
    I did not have another app open.  Also, during this time, the software setup box kept popping up.  I kept selecting the 30 day trial version, but nothing would happen after I selected the button.  I am using the Vista OS on my computer.  I also have the Adobe Reader 9 which I have had for a while.
    I uninstalled and reinstalled the free version of Adobe Acrobat 9 and got the same result as described above.  If someone can help me with this, I would greatly appreciate it.  Thanks.

    You have a problem. You cannot have Reader and Acrobat Pro on the same computer. It causes problems. Normally, I'd tell you to uninstall Reader and re-install Acrobat Pro, but doing so might make your trial fail and you cannot get two trials. For the moment when trying to create a pdf file, try printing to the the Adobe PDF virtual printer.

    You have errors in your C code. If you want anyone to be able to help you, you need to post the code. You also should tell us the version of Xcode you're using and the type of Xcode project you created for the C program.

  • I can not print a pdf file that was sent in an email.  I get the error message that adobe could not

    I can not print a pdf file that was sent in an email.  I get an adobe error message that it can not print with an ok to check and when i do I get another adobe error message that says I did not select a page to print. I have downloaded the latest adobe download.  I forwarded the email to my husband and he printed the document just fine.

    This first question which comes to mind is how do you display the pdf file in the browser?
    For this the browser uses a plug in (e.g. adobe reader) which already has the ability to print the pdf file. Depending on the version of your plug in, printing is started differently.

  • Error Message in Adobe Reader with LiveCycle PDF

    When I use Adobe LiveCycle 8.0 and save a form as Acrobatic Static 6 or 7 *.pdf, I open up Adobe Reader 7.0 and I get an error message. It states that the form I am trying to open requires a newer version and that some fields may not be displayed properly. Am I not doing something right when I save my form in LiveCycle?

    Susan, what's the exact version of Designer you're using. If you go to the Help->About Adobe LiveCycle Designer it'll tell you.

    I have the exact same issue. I can print one document and then I get the error mentionned above ("adobe creation cannot continue because acrobat is not activated"). Then I need to reboot in order to be able to print a new document.
    I have suite and went to Photoshop as suggested, but this program is already activated. I tried to launch Acrobat Pro but it won't.
    I'm using the Design and Web Premium CS6 Suite on Windows Vista.
    Thank you so much for your help.

    Hi chasore,
    Are you still facing this issue?
    Is this issue happening with all the documents you have. If yes, i would suggest try uninstall and reinstall. Or if the documents are located on some shared drive try to copy them on local machine and test again.

    Google Chrome is a problem:
    if you use Chrome's own PDF viewer, the results are unpredictable.
    if you use the Adobe Reader plugin with Chrome, it may reject (block) it if it is not the latest version.  Reader 11.0.08 is the latest version for Windows XP, but Chrome may insist on the current version 11.0.10.
    My suggestion; use a different browser!
