How to print color PDF in B&W

I have some pdf files that were created from Powerpoint.
The background is blue and letters yellow.
Is there a way to print w/ bkgd white and letters black,
so I don't have to print all these pages in blue bkgd
and use up the color ink?
(I have Acrobat 8 Professional)
Thank you.

There's a "Plain Paper, Fast Draft, Black and White", but no 'just remove colour" type of selection.
You're right, of course, this is a B/W selection, but it degrades the quality (maybe that's too inherent in removing colour?). I was looking for higher-quality colour removal. Reading what I just typed makes me sound like a nitwit, so maybe that's the best I'm going to be able to do... Thanks for putting my head straight!

    How convert a color PDF File to black & white (gray scale...no color)??? creative cloud cs6... Acrobat etc

    Hi, just wanted to add my 2¢
    I've been in publishing over 25 years and live in Acrobat for making my final files. Currently with a newspaper.
    This is what we do:
    • Tool Panes > Print Production Window
    • Select CONVERT COLORS
    • Midway down under OUTPUT INTENT, check Convert Colors to Output Intent
    • In the associated drop down menu, I choose (because I'm printing on newsprint) DOT GAIN 20% – If you're working on better stock, choose a lower dot gain percentage.
    • Click OK – this will convert the file
    • Save
    Note: this affects the file you're working with. Make sure that you use this method on a COPY if you want to retain the original color version.
    I think if you compare my method to the Preflight method, you'll see a tighter contrast and better blacks. I've always felt the Preflight method left continuous tones a little muddy.
    Now if there was only a way to add that to ACTIONS...!

  • How to print a pdf file from Labview

    Hi,
    Does anyone know how to print a pdf file form Labview. I need to be able to point on the pdf file and to print it.
    Activex examples doesnt seem to be working it always displays an error, on every PC that I tryed to run it.
    {"code 3005" ,,,"Automation Open: Object specified is not creatable in Display PDF in Dialog.vi"}.
    Thank you for your help.
    Regards,
    Jenia.

    You can use the "System Exec.vi". The command line should have the following structure:
    "<Path to AcroRd32.exe>" /t "<Path to document>" "Printer name"
    For example"
    "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 5.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" /t "C:\myreport.pdf" "Tektronix Phaser 300i"

    I think if you use the start-command, the execution is asynchronously and you won't get the correct process-id. Try to execute Acorbat directly without the cmd /c start in front of it.

  • How to print a PDF file that was display in my page...

    Hi !. My doubt would be the following one... I would like to know how to print a pdf file that was displayed in my page ?... I mean the PDF file not the page...
    The PDF would be in this url:
    http://iprodesa.lasegunda.com.ar:8090/datos/pdf/830.pdf
    How could I implement this ?...

    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.

    Ps: which jdev version do you use?

  • How to print a pdf without user interaction (With C#)

    My boss assigned me a task that to get the ImagePreview of 1st page of PDF.
    My thought is to print the 1st page of PDF to file(virtual print to file), and get the image source, but there comes the problem:
    How can print a pdf without user interaction(With C#),question are these:
    1. I can use the ShellExcute but cannot assign the destination of output file.
    2. User interface is unwanted, I don't want show anyone the Acrobat Reader interface who click the file just want to get a preview.
    3. No place to put those parameters in.
    This problem confused me a lot of days, I wish someone can give some hints.
    Thank you very much!
    (Maybe you will tell me to use Acrobat SDK, please don't, I'm afraid we cannot afford that)

    >I have not read the document yet
    This is the first step. There are many documents, but start with the
    introductory/getting started material.
    > with a index.pdx
    A PDX is a search database to allow you to do fast searching in
    Acrobat.
    >
    >About the relationship between Adobe Reader and Acrobat, as far as I know is that, the previous one is just the reading tool for PDF document, instead, Acrobat can modify and resave the PDF doc. Is it right?
    Effectively, yes. But the Acrobat SDK is mainly for working with
    Acrobat. It's very important to keep this clear, since you have said
    you only have the free Reader, so 95% of what is in the SDK cannot
    work for you.
    >
    >Simply my questions,
    >1. I don't know which dll to refer in the .Net project to print with. Is the ActiveX folder in product folder?
    Simply, there is no point asking these questions, yet, because you
    have not started on the documentation.
    But let's continue in the SDK forum, where I have posed what seems to
    be a very important question about why print to file at all.

  • How to print color logo?

    how to print color logo using smartforms?is any printer configuration needed for printing color logo..?

    brainbytes,
    Currently, Kuler does not support direct printing of themes. You can anyways, copy the theme to swatches panel(via kuler panel or through the downloaded ASE file) and use a product like Adobe Illustrator to create a document that can be printed using those colors. Alternatively, each theme within kuler has a URL(Referred to as Theme Link within a them description, when more info is selected in the website) that can be used to show the theme to a client. All public kuler themes are accessible via the URL in any flash supported browser or through the freely available Kuler AIR application.

  • Acrobat 9.31 / Browser Plugin - Printing Color PDF as Black and White?

    I have an interesting issue for the masses. For a couple of our users (it encompasses both Windows XP x64 and Windows 7 x64), they are having an issue where when they attempt to print a PDF directly from Acrobat's browser plugin (in this case, IE8 is the browser), and attempt to print a color PDF to a color printer, the PDF comes out in black and white.
    Here's some other consistents:
    * Printing to a network printer, using the print driver Canon C5180-H1 Ver.2.0JM. The problem spans across two different print servers (we use a different one for XP clients and 7 clients, but the driver is the same)
    * When the user clicks on "Print As Image", it does work (but doesn't look quite as good)
    * When the user saves the PDF to a file and then opens it in the full Acrobat 9 Pro application, it does work (but this is a bit annoying)
    Can anyone suggest some other things I should check and/or reasons that this might be happening? I'm at a total loss to explain it but will happily accept suggestions on ways to fix it.
    Thanks!

    Following up to see if anyone has some solid ideas on how this might be happening.
    Thanks!

  • How to print color document in greyscale without it being really dark?

    Recently had a customer come in and want some holiday letters printed out. They had a bunch of color photos in the document and when we printed that from Adobe Acrobat to our black and white copier, they came up REALLY black. Everything was much darker that it should have been.
    Normally we work around this issue by placing the document into InDesign and printing it in Greyscale mode from there since you can tell it RGB, CMYK or Greyscale from InDesign. Problem is, if I wasn't here, nobody else would know how to do this and they would probably have to turn the customer away.
    Our counter machine is a WindowsXP machine with the newest version of Acrobat Reader. I saw this link elsewhere here:
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/948555?tstart=0
    But that doesn't work. When clicking on Advanced button in the print window for Acrobat Reader, the Advanced window doesn't have anything about printing in greyscale. The copier is a Canon iR 7095.
    Any thoughts on what we can do? Basically, I want to be able to have the ladies that work the counter (and the counter PC) to be able to print color documents to the black and white machine without having a problem with the output and having to either come into my office and have me help with it, or having to turn the customer away.
    Any thoughts?

  • Adobe Reader 10: How to print a PDF ignoring the red characters?

    Adobe Reader 10: I want to print a PDF ignoring the red characters.
    I am a school teacher.  I would like to print PDF answer key files (answers in red) without the answers for the students to work on.  How can I suppress the red characters during print and print only the black characters?

    I don't think this is possible with Adobe Reader.  You would need a program like Acrobat or Illustrator to hide these text portions.
    If this is a one-time task, you could use the 30 day trial of Acrobat: http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-acrobat-xi-pro-standard-reader-direct-download-links.html - make sure you follow the Very Important Instructions on that page.
