How do I add adobe Acrobat as a printer option in InDesign?

I purchased a new computer (MAC Book Pro) and am working from Adobe CC. I have the option in both chrome and word and I've always had the option in InDesign before so I am not sure how to add it. I have the Postscript option but I would like the ablility to print directly to PDF for those times where it doesn't want to export. - Thanks

Thanks for your response Steve, but Spier is correct I'm looking to add it as a print driver. I can export to pdf fine but sometimes when that isn't working or if I want the file to be compressed further I do File>Print and chose a printer, usually there is an option for Adobe PDF but the only option I currently have is Postscript. Looks like it was taken away. Thanks everyone!

    How do I add adobe reader to my printer so I can print a pdf?

    Are you trying to print to a PDF from Adobe Reader?
    If so, you need Acrobat for that. Reader doesn't not install a PDF printer.

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended | Print Option | Enable Flash Object Issue

    Hi,
    We are facing some problems with Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended Print Option.
    We had a requirement to embed interactive Flash graphs in the PDF file, user will interact with these graphs and whatever graph he plotted, the data for it will be saved in PDF text field, so that on the next launch we can fetch the data to the flash from PDF text fields, so that user can see what changes he did last time. This works great, we are able to successfully comminicate from PDF to flash and then from Flash to PDF.
    Please note that, PDF can have multiple graphs on different pages.
    The issue we are facing is when we interact with the graphs and then try to print the PDF, in that case only the currently active graph or flash file (The page on which user is currently on) will be seen enabled in the print, the graphs on the other pages, which are not currently visible are seen in disabled state hence the data on it does not get printed.
    We have also used the "RMA.activated = true;" command, still no success. Please refer to the screen shots below to understand the issue in more detail..
    Flash Embed Options:
    In the Print Option, it looks disabled:
    The required/desired output is as follows:
    We want all Graphs to get printed in enabled state and with the data user had entered. Please do let me know, if there is any workaround to achive this functionality.

    Which version. I think it is a minimum of AA9.2 that is needed for X64. Anyway, you should probably either open Acrobat and do the update (help menu) or download all of the updates from Adobe>downloads>updates and install them in order. The current version is AA9.3.4.

  • How can I add Adobe Acrobat into my Applications under content type so I can open up pdfs in a firefox window?

    firefox won't open pdf's in a new window. I get a blank page. When viewing my application options, Adobe Acrobat is not listed under content type anywhere. I entered about:plugins in the address bar and it is showing that I do in fact have Adobe acrobat.
    File: nppdf32.dll
    Version: 7.0.8.218
    Adobe Acrobat Plug-In Version 7.00 for Netscape
    I also know I have it, because I have no problem using it in IE.
    What can I do to get pdfs to open in a firefox window?

    Thanks. That worked.
    I went to the profiles directory by putting %APPDATA% in the run window, then in explorer went to mozilla, firefox, profiles, and deleted the mimeTypes.rdf file after making sure firefox was closed. Opened firefox again and mailto links worked. Tried it on my friend's computer and it work on it as well.

  • How do you add "Adobe PDF" as a "printer" in Office 2010/Windows 7

    Although with most of the programs you can just save documents and spread sheets as PDFs, in Power Point, it does not allow you the option to save a slide as a PDF with the notes displayed in the PDF, only the slide is transformed to PDF, the notes do not show on them.
    Goal: To have notes and slide saved as a PDF
    Challenge: Just saving the slide as a PDF does not display notes
    Solution in past: Print to Adobe PDF using the Print function and "print" using the notes or outline options in the print window
    Problem: ADOBE PDF is not an option in my printer section anymore.
    Question: How do I make PDF a "Printer" in with Office 2010 or in general using Windows 7

    You make not mention of Acrobat and what version you might have. For Office 2010 to do as you want, you need PDF Maker and will have to have AA X for Office 2010. To get the Adobe PDF printer you could install either AA9 or AAX in Win7. Some folks have been successful with AA8 in Win 7. If you don't have Acrobat, then it is time to order it.

  • HT2506 How do I get Adobe Acrobat to see/print pdf forms I've filled out in Preview

    I've been working in Preview and filling out Adobe Acrobat created forms according to instructions from the help in Preview.  However, whent these filled forms are submitted to someone and opened in Adobe Acrobat, they can neither see what I've filled out nor can it be printed (all that comes out is a blank form).  How can I properly fill out the forms so that Acrobat can see and print the filled out forms.

    Just as I suspected, Preview is mucking up the DD Form 1351-2 form. I filled it out, saved it in Preview and opened it in Acrobat Pro and the fields were blank. If I open it in Reader, I can fill out the form, save it, and open it in Acrobat Pro just fine, all data intact.
    I don't know why Preview does such a bad job with forms - I just know that as an AcroForms designer, I always suggest using Reader to fill in forms.
    BTW, I also tried it in Windows 7, using Reader and Acrobat Pro, and it worked as expected.

  • How do I have Adobe Acrobat 9.0 calculate the minimum of 10 fields BUT ignore empty fields?

    How do I have Adobe Acrobat 9.0 calculate the minimum of 10 fields BUT ignore the field if it is empty? Currently it counts blanks as 0 so when it comes up with the minimum it will always show 0 unless all 10 fields have values in them.

    You could loop through the fields and add the non-blank values to an array, and use the Math.min method to get the minimum. Here's an example custom Calculate script:
    // Custom calculate script
    (function () {
        // Array to hold non-blank field values
        var fa = [];
        // Loop through the fields...
        for (var i = 1; i < 11; i += 1) {
            // ...get the current field value, as string...
            var v = getField("text1." + i).valueAsString;
            // ...if not blank, add value to the array, as a number
            if (v) fa.push(+v);
        // Set this field's value to the minimum value in the array, otherwise blank
        event.value = fa.length > 0 ? Math.min.apply(null, fa) : "";
    This assumes the fields are named "text1.1", "text1.2", ..."text1.10" and that they're numeric. This type of field naming simplifies the code, so it would be good to use something similar and adjust the getField statement to match.

  • How do you move adobe acrobat XI pro from one computer to another?

    how do you move adobe acrobat XI standard pro from one computer to another?

    Hi jeszamom,
    You'll need either the installation media (if you bought from a retailer), or a downloaded installer. If you don't have the CD, you can download Acrobat from this links in this document: Download Acrobat products | Standard, Pro | XI, X - Adobe.
    It's OK to keep it on the other computer; your license allows you to install it on up to two computers. But, if you'd like you can deactivate it on that old computer, which would free up that activation for use on yet another computer. Please see Activation & Deactivation Help - Adobe
    You'll need your serial number to activate on the new computer.
    Please let us know how it goes.

  • How can I transfer Adobe Acrobat from my old PC to my New PC?

    How can I transfer Adobe Acrobat from my old Laptop to my new laptop?

    You have to deactivate and uninstall on the old system and then reinstall on the new system. Whether it works depends on the Acrobat version (looks like you indicated AAX) and OS. You need to be sure to update after the new install. Just transferring files like you imply you want to do is not possible with almost any modern software. The software not only loads files, but sets all sorts of registry entries that would take a lot of time to find. In the past there were some programs that supposedly tried to move programs, but I have not seen mention of one in years.

  • How do I add adobe flash player to my Ipad

    How do I add adobe flash player to my Ipad

    You can't, it's not supported on any iOS device (iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch) : http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/ . Apps such as Skyfire claim to support flash, but their reviews are mixed. Some websites (especially news sites) have their own apps in the App Store, so you could check to see if your favourite(s) have apps.
