1.Open PDF
2. Select range of pages to print
3.Click "Printer" after selecting pages to print and I get this dialog box-
"The Print Setup dialog box is provided by the operating system. To ensure that you can use the full print capabilities of Acrobat, please set all print options from the Application print dialog box. Do you want to continue?"
4.Click "yes"
5.New print dialog box appears, select range of pages and Two-Sided: Long Edge binding
6. Click "Print" and it reverts to first Print dialog box
7.Click "Print"
Results:
I get the following dialog boxes-
* The document could not be printed.
* There were no pages selected to print.
Expected results:
printed pages on both sides
What am I missing???

When you try to print, use COMMAND P, it should bring up a window similar to this you can select the preset there. It shoud remember the preset after.

How to duplex print pdf file on hp 1320 using upd pcl5 on windows 7 ?

I am running Windows 7 Professional (64bit), with a HP laserjet 1320 using driver HP UPD PCL5 (v5.5.0.12834), with Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro v9.5.2 and MS Word 2010. When I print a Word 2010 file I can choose duplex printing (print on both sides) and everything works fine. However, when I open a PDF file, click FILE then PRINT then PROPERTIES the PRINT ON BOTH SIDES option shows "none" and no other option is shown. I searched Adobe support and it says duplex printing is controlled by the printer driver, not Adobe software. I have uninstalled & reinstalled the UPD PCL 5 driver two times already but still the same problem of not being able to choose duplex printing for any PDF document - yet it works for MS Word. Any ideas ? Thanks

How to tag a Print PDF form ?

Hi,
I need some pointers on how to tag a print PDF form. For one of the requirements, we developed a Print PDF form. The form contains Sub-forms which are made to look like a table. The relevant parameter(i.e., pdf_tagged ) is already set before starting the Job. The special case here is that the table gets the text for the header from the application data and shrinks or grows(upto a max supported column count) according to application data. For the same reason we cannot have a table, header row and body row marked in the accessibility tab in the form development transaction. Also, it is required that a header has to be visible.
So currently in the form :
1)We have just a set of sub-forms made to look like a table.
2)We do not have any table,header or body row identified in the accesibility tab.
3)Table also grows and shrinks horizontally.
4)First row of the table is made to look like a Header row(bold text) and gets the data from the application data.
5)This PDF is then displayed in a popup.
6)The PDF form is currently not tagged (not accessible).
Any pointers on how to resolve the issue would be highly appreciated.
Best regards,
Abhay

Duplex Printing Not Working - Brother HL4570CDW

Hey all,
I managed to get a network printer setup and it works; however, the only thing that isn't working is duplex printing. I installed the driver from AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/brother-hl4570cdw/
In my default options I have "Two-Sided Printing" set to "Long-Edge Binding". But the CUPS printer page at localhost:631/printers/metafont (where metafont is the name/URL of the printer) shows me:
Description: metafont
Location: metafont
Driver: Brother HL-4570CDW series CUPS (color, 2-sided printing)
Connection: lpd://metafont/BINARY_P1
Defaults: job-sheets=none, none media=na_letter_8.5x11in sides=one-sided
What concerns me here is the sides=one-sided, I have a feeling that's a problem. In any case, I tried to print a PDF using evince and in "Page Setup" it tells me that the two-sided option is "Not available" and I also tried to print from the command line and adding the "-o sides=two-sided-long-edge" option but that didn't work either.
Any help would be appreciated!

He Daniel.
The standard HP ePrint feature does not support Duplex printing, I would assume that the same applies for HP ePrint Enterprise:
Are there any limitations that I should be aware of when using ePrint?
Duplexing (printing on both sides of the page) is not supported.
http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c02882571
I suggest ensuring a such in the commercial forums, there are more expertize users for such a subject:

How to save and print PDFs?

For some reason, I am no longer able to save or print PDFs that I download from the internet. This problem developed in the past 2 days, and I never had this problem before. I am able to see the PDF when I download it, but when I go to the saved file, I get a message saying that the file can't be opened because it is empty. In other cases, I would get a message saying the Adobe Reader couldn't open the file because it is not supported, and I also get a message saying that the website blocked Adobe Reader. When I try to print, I get a blank page. I had been using Preview as default to read my PDFs. I thought maybe the problem was that I should be using Adobe Reader as default, so I switched to that. That didn't help the situation. Then, I tried removing all my versions of Adobe Reader entirely from my computer. I could, however, not figure out how to set Preview as default, again, and I still was not able to save or print any PDFs. Next, I installed the latest version of Adobe Reader, fresh, in my computer. Now I'm back to square 1. And I still don't know how to set Preview as the default reader. But I don't think that's going to make any difference, as it was the default reader when this problem began. My operating system is OS X 10.8.5. My Safari is 6.1.3. Please help!

Plus, as I said, I had this problem BEFORE I used the Adobe Reader as the default. In fact, I switched from Preview, to Reader as the default only because I was having the problem and I thought it would help (which it didn't). I would now like to switch back to Preview as the default, but don't know how to do this. Can you tell me how?

How to schedule a print pdf job (in windows) without user logged in

We try to use a powershell scripts to print pdf files from a directory. It works fine if you schedule this scripts as task with option "Run only as user is logged on", but if you schedule the job as "Run whether user is logged on or not", the print pdf doesn't work at all. Here is the powershell scripts used to print:
$process = Start-Process -WindowStyle Hidden -FilePath $outfile -Verb Print -PassThru -Wait | %{sleep 5; $_} | kill if ($process.StandardError) { log $process.StandardError }
Any suggestions are welcome!

Thank you for your reply! that is what I thought! but what other options I have? can I use C# + window services? or Adobe SDK? or Java Application?

How to export or print PDF from Illustrator with crop and reg marks?

Hi all,
I realise this is probably a very obvious question, but I've just upgraded from CS3 to CS5.5, and I'm tearing my hair out with the loss of Adobe PDF printer driver. I've looked on forums and can't find this question - prob. so obvious that no one else has asked it.
Can't seem to export as PDF from Illustrator ,only 'save as'. This doesn't give me my crop marks. I've tried putting in crop marks - Effects/Crop Marks - but this places the marks outside my trim, at the edges of my background image, which comes out 2mm all round for bleed purposes.
How can I set crop marks to denote the dimensions of the page size, regardless of how much crap I've got spilling out over the edges for bleed?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers!
PS: Bring back the PDF Printer Driver pleeeease!

You can turn on crop & trim marsk when doing a save as to PDF. But turn on some bleed values greater than 0 (not as in my screenshot) or you will not get any bleed of your artwork, just the marks then.

How to automatically ensure printing pdf in safari does not crop content

I realized today that printing and saving as pdf in safari has been cropping my content. I dont know when this change occured or why, but at some point in time, content I've saved from safari by printing and saving as pdf has cropped the pages.
Is there a way to make sure that printing in safari selects a page size that automatically does NOT crop the content. As it stands now it automatically selects US paper size and that crops all my bank statements. I can put in a custom size buts its really inconcenient to have to do that every time. And every time, it reverts back to US paper. This was never a problem for me in the past and I'm not sure whats changed.
thanks

Just to update, even if I select a custom size in print settings for the computer, safari automatically goes to US paper. Even if I select to scale content to fit, it still crops the content.
I've also trashed Library/Preferences/com.apple.print.PrintingPrefs.plist

How to make duplex printing "default"?

By default, I want to print duplex, but whenever I print, I find that I always have to manually alter the "layout" and tell it to print duplex.
Is there a way to set up a printer to be duplex by default?

After you have set up your desired defaults in the Print dialog, select Save As from the Presets drop down menu. Save your configuration. You can then set that preset for your default.

Brother Printer won't duplex print A4

Hi
I have a Brother laser printer HL-5150D printing from a 20" iMac using OSX 10.5.4 that has stopped printing duplex but apparently only when trying to print to A4 paper size. As A4 is my default size this is a problem for me.
If I set the paper size as US Letter in the print dialogue box the printer will duplex however the print area is reduced by about 15 - 20% which even when printing on actual A4 paper leaves a very large 3 - 4 cm empty border around the print area.
Any body have any ideas on how to get duplex printing on to A4 paper size without going through the US Letter route and ending up with a reduced size print image?

I just took a picture of my print layout, this should help - I hope.
This is the set-up under Leopard, which I now realize you are not running - in Tiger, under Pages etc. go to the bottom where it says Summary,open that, then click on the triangle next to Layout, and it will give you the option of two sided printing.

Duplex Printing for MX922

Hey I didn't see this in the forums anywhere so thought I'd make a new topic.
How do I duplex print with the mx922? I'm printing from a USB stick and can't seem to find how to print both sides of the paper.
Bonus question: my printer only seems to accept jpegs. I've tried PDFs and it keeps telling me the format us not supported. That can't be true, eh?

Since this is not an auto duplex printer, you will need to go into your printer properties and set the allow manual duplex check box. Once you have set it there it will duplex all the time.
Start menu >Device and Printers Folder > Right click on the printer > choose printer preferences > finishing tab (I think that is what it is called, if not look for the tab that has...print on both sides (manually) or allow manually duplexing (Sorry, I don't have this printer hooked up to a test box or I would get you a screenshot )
If you want to only duplex certain jobs, then you can do this through the application at the time you pick your printer by selecting printer properties (located under your printer selection button) and setting it for only that one job.
Open application > File > Print > Printer Properties > finishing tab (steps are the same as above)
Just remember...
Box checked = duplex (default option so this should already be set unless you have unchecked it)
Box unchecked = not duplex
Last word of caution on these instructions...you may have some variation as I am going off my memory here....my printer is not hooked up.
