How To Print After Error Msg: Unable to convert postscript file

We installed "Maverick" on our MacBook Pro and our printer is a HP 8600.  We were unsuccessful in getting our Adobe Acrobat Professional 8 to print our PDF files.  Instead, we got the error msg: Printing Stopped: unable to convert postscript file.  We have used this application for years without any problems.  How do we solve this problem so that our application WILL "convert postscript file" or do we have to spend several hundred dollars to upgrade?

I think we solved the problem.  Instead of looking for the solution via Adobe, we went to our printer info online, which was the HP OfficeJet 8600.  We found special printer drivers for our newly installed Maverick operating system for our MacBook Pro.  After downloading and installing the new drivers per the directions, we tested printing a pdf document and it was printed without any problem.

  • Unable to convert postscript file...

    I can't print a PDF file in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro for Mac (OS X 10.9.1). The file sent to print remains stuck in the queue saying "Printing - Unable to convert Postscript file".  My printer is HP OfficeJet 8600 Plus. It seems to be a problem related to Acrobat for Mac only, as I can print the same file with the same printer from Adobe Acrobat XI Pro for Windows. All software and drivers involved are updated.  Printing As an Image does the trick, but I am looking for a direct solution if there is one.
    Any suggestion will be highly appreciated.

    Trying to print from Quicken running in Win 7 under Parallels.  Seems to function correctly through WIN, but in Mac print queue, generates the error "Unable to Convert Postscript File"  What gives?
    I think Quicken is using their own print library that may be adding artifacts to the postscript code that the Mac printer drivers cannot digest. Or, are you using a printer with postscript level 2 emulation and Quicken is sending postscript level 3 love?
    Current on Parallels and Quicken software updates? Mountain Lion printer drivers for your device?
    What about printing directly to postscript into a shared Mac folder, then opening that file with either Preview (will convert to PDF) or Adobe Reader 10.1.4 on Mountain Lion. You might need latest Ghostscript, Redmon, and CutePDF Writer -- all free on the Win 7 side to direct output to a virtual postscript or PDF printer from within Quicken.
    I looked at the Intuit forums and their are dozens of pages reflecting printer issues with Quicken. This appears to be the application from ****.
    Hope you aren't on the billable clock with these issues.

    The email asked to install the latest Adobe Flashplayer version to have it working. I installed it, also updated my plug-ins and checked in safe mode that the extensions were not the problem. I also deleted the cookies an cache. Nothing seems to be working so far. I have the lastest version of Firefox 8.0.1 as well as Roboform 7. I noticed that the latest Firefox version has (x86) tagged to it. Does it refers to an 86 bits because my computer uses 32 or 64 bits only. I tried also different browsers and the message kept appearing. How do I resolve this problem?

    I am installing creative the cloud Illustrator desktop app on a machine with windows 7 64 bit running in a domain environment.  The download starts and takes about runs for a bout 10 minutes and then stops with the error: DF024: Unable to preserve original file at "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CC 2014\Support Files\Contents\Windows\AdobeLinguistic.dll" Error 32 The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.(Seq 1352)

    Thanks

    MelissaB34 it looks like you already are reviewing your installation log files but you can find more information at Troubleshoot install issues with log files | CC - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cc.html.  From the error you have posted it appears that your current User account is either unable to update C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CC 2014\Support Files\Contents\Windows\AdobeLinguistic.dll or does not have sufficient file permissions to do so.  Since you mentioned you are on a domain please ensure that you are working with your I.T. department and have correct access to this directory.
    You may want to also consider logging in under a local administrator account to see if you face the same difficulties.  This would help you determine if you are facing a file corruption issue or file permission issue.

    Hi @itsalex,
    What type of bar code are you printing, and from what program? Just a thought, what if you print the barcode as an image, if you are not already? Try File>Print> Advanced> Print as Image> print.
    If the issue persists, let's reset the printing system and repair the disk permissions; doing so may resolve the issue.
    Reset Printing System
    Click the Apple icon ( ), and then click System Preferences.
    In the Hardware section, click Print & Fax/Scan. The Print & Fax/Scan dialog box opens.
    Right-click (or Ctrl +click) in the left panel, and then click Reset printing system…
    Click OK to confirm the reset.
    Type the correct Name and Password.
    Click OK to reset the printing system. The Print & Fax dialog box shows no printer selected
    Note: This will remove all printers in the print and Fax/Scan, any printer removed can be re-added later by clicking the plus (+) symbol.
    Repair Disk Permissions
    On the Dock, click Applications, and then click Utilities.
    Double-click Disk Utility.
    Highlight your hard drive/partition on the left (by default this is "Macintosh HD").
    Click the Repair Disk Permissions button at the bottom of the window.
    Once the repair is complete, restart the computer and add the printer back.
    When you add the printer, please ensure you are using the HP driver.
    Select Add other Printer or Scanner 
    Select the printer you are adding and next to 'Use' you can select the printer drive. In the screenshot below, you will see Airprint is auto selected, you can change it to the HP driver though.
    I look forward to hearing back from you.
      Talk to you later alligator 
    Please click the Thumbs up icon below to thank me for responding.

    Thanks kumars ,
    I have a specific drag and drop area on our website. This works fine for all earlier releases of Firefox after these security settings
    "(1) Enter "about:config" in the URL field; (2) Right click and select New->Boolean; (3) Enter "signed.applets.codebase_principal_support" (without the quotes) as a new preference name; (4) Click OK and try loading the file again."
    Bust these settings not work for me in Firefox 17.
    Yes the drag and drop functionality is java script based and i am not using any script blocker addons.

  • Output Designer 5.7 Errors - Error 1804 Unable to open configuration file

    Hi...Receiving error messages on accessing newly installed Output Designer 5.7.   Installed on new Win7 laptop.
    Error # 5903 -  You must select a Printer before saving.
    Error # 1804 - Unable to open configuration file "....\Config\PDF.ICF"
    The last error, Error # 1804, closes out the application.   File does not exist within the path.  Tried uninstalling and reinstalling with the same result.  
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Elena.

    Hi Elena
    This is most likely caused by missing admin rights on Win 7. I have seen this problem within my company.
    When installing Adobe Output Designer it will be placed in %ProgramFiles% which is your C:\Program Files folder.
    In subfolder C:\Program Files\Adobe\Output Designer 5.7\Config there are many configuration files that controls your printer drivers (Presentment targets). Dependent on what user type you are in Win 7 you might not have write access to files in this folder. When you cannot write to this folder you cannot make changes to your printer drivers or install new ones and you are pretty much stuck.
    Solution: Create folder C:\MyPrograms and install Adobe Output Designer here.

  • Keep getting archive errors.  "ERROR: E_FILE unable to find md file: /Volume....

    We have a Final Cut Server setup where after two weeks assets will automatically be archived to tape. Every so often I am getting error messages that state something similar to the following:
    Job 404117 Archiving 214452_upload.mov needs attention. Please login and troubleshoot.
    The error that occurred was:
    "ERROR: E_FILE Unable to find md file: /Volumes/xsan/MEDIA/devices/video.bundle/3dd/00000000000203dd_md No such file or directory"
    Naturally I will look at the directory path and will not see the file. When I search for that particular asset it will show up as online, but the "original media" is grayed out. Then there will be an exclamation point over the file cabinet (which says the file is online). So the media is missing. When I look at the log of the file, there will also be an email that was sent out to the creator saying that the file was ready for editing.
    Any thoughts are greatly appreciated.

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • How do I correct error -39 pertaining to  Finale 2012 file?

    How do I correct error -39 pertaining to  Finale 2012 file?

    Did you manage to get a response on this? A colleague is receiving Error -39 trying to re-open *.mus files from Finale 2010, and could use some insight into fixes. [I am using Finale 2012 (on 27" iMac, 8GB RAM, i7; 15" MBP, 8GB RAM, i7) but have never encountered the error.] It seems to be a corruption when the file is closed after editing, involving the audio engine. That would make playback an issue. It could be the Garritan sounds which have been updated for 2012. Any thoughts your end? Have you been able to sort this out?

  • Indesign CC packaging process fails with the error message "Unable to copy necessary file(s)"

    When I try to package a file with a lot of links, the Indesign CC packaging process fails with the error message "Unable to copy necessary file(s)". I am able to make a PDF of the same file, but when packaking the process fails every time. The app does not crash, just gives an error message. What gives?
    (I'm using a MacBook Pro Retina Display with 16 GB RAM, running OS 10.9 and all CC 9.1 updated with the latest patches).

    @John – that's really strange… the thing with the file names depending on the file type. That could eleminate Mavericks a bit from the equation and put the weight more on InDesign CC.
    Provided:
    1. You give it a go with InDesign CS6 v8.0.2 and tests are showing it will work fine in this regard.
    2. The same composite characters are present in both file types, the ai files and the PhotoShop ones. On a Mac OSX characters for files and folders can consist of "composite" components:
    ü for example is a two component one: the u and the two dots above the u. On a machine with MS Windows, this is not the case…
    InDesign CC was programmed from scratch for a 64 bit architecture. So it could be a severe bug in InDesign CC.
    Maybe other readers in this forum could test for these cases…
