How to print portrait from acrobat 11, win 8

I am using win 8 on a HP laserjet P1102W printer and only on Acrobat 11 am unable to print in portrait form regardless of file. I have no problems with other software regarding this.
Any help appreciated
pcguy177

As someone with over 20 years experience I naturally have tried switching the orientation to Portrait and every other way known, including landscape which didn't do anything different. I do desktop publishing so I have used many types of printers and software's none have caused this problem. I don't have this problem with any other software including Office, Photoshop, or even right off the web. Only Adobe Acrobat 11 with Win 8 has caused this. I wouldn't have gotten Win 8 but it came with my laptop. My desktop is old and not wireless so I have no intention of running wires around the house when my laptop does everything else well. I know XP probably would work without any problems but again not into the trouble to hook it up. It's so old that I can't even use a wireless USB transmitter because they require at least 2.0 USB to work, already tried it.
Thanks for the thought though. If you can think of anything else you never know what might work. I am thinking of upgrading to 8.1 but have not heard good things about it so not rushing into that direction quit yet.
Oh yea unable means not able to do a specific thing, in this case printing portrait printing or normal for most people, this is usually the default settings of most printers.

Slug and bleed print fine from Acrobat 9.5.3 but not Acrobat 9.5.4

Our creative department is having issues printing slugs from Acrobat.
(slugs were created in InDesign CS5 and exported to pdf)
There are NO issues printing form Acrobat Pro 9.5.3.
Ther ARE issues printing from Arobat Pro 9.5.4.
The slug and bleed shows up in the print preview screen but does NOT print.
Does anyone have any advice or solutions?
Thanks!

Did you ever figure this out? One day I was printing slugs a few days later acrobat was not printing them, even though they show in the preview. Help?

HUGE BUG printing Booklet from Acrobat Pro 11.0.10

I spent an hour chatting with Adobe support in India. They could not solve this issue.
I submitted a BUG REPORT at Adobe - Feature Request/Bug Report Form
Here is the BUG Report:
******BUG******
Concise problem statement:
Steps to reproduce bug:
1. Export individual pages from InDesign as pdf (16-page booklet, each individual page is 5-1/2" x 8-1/2")
2. Open pdf in Acrobat Pro 11.0.10
3. Choose actual size, then choose booklet, and print. (printer contains letter-size paper, and page set-up is set to 100% scale.)
Results: The printed booklet is the WRONG SIZE! The pagination is correct as usual, but each individual page is being REDUCED, and now each page image is too small, and there is now a GAP between pages, and the entire booklet is useless. If you can, please see case number: 0186447426: support chat: it covers everything we have tried so far ... (We tried everything they could think of, but all attempts failed.) This bug was introduced somewhere along the line with Yosemite.
Expected results: As usual, when printing booklets from Acrobat Pro, we expect the print to be the right size, the same size as the InDesign doc, and as it has been printed previously by Acrobat Pro prior to Yosemite. Thanks for fixing this disaster of a bug. Please contact me if you need further info, copies of the individual page pdf, etc.
I am literally stuck. I can go through the laborious process of using InDesign to "print booklet" to a postscript file and use Distiller to make the booklet pdf, but under Yosemite, I am prevented from installing print drivers unless that printer is locally available on my network. Unfortunately, the printer is located at my client's place of business.
I realize there is typically a leap-frog effect between operating system updates, hardware, and application updates, but combined with other Yosemite issues, this Acrobat Pro bug is killing my business.

DrStrik9 (sounds a bit poisonous to me!),
The issue, regrettably, is that Acrobat is performing as designed. And it has nothing to do with either MacOS 10.10 or anything new or different with Acrobat 11.0.10 (versus earlier versions going all the way back to the initial implementation of the booklet printing feature). And this isn't directly a printer driver issue, either! The same behaviour occurs both on MacOS and Windows.
The problem, simply stated, is that the Booklet print option in Acrobat (and Reader) is attempting to avoid loss of content due to the paper's non-printable margins. The scaling factors in the Size print option are not utilized at all in the Booklet print option. The Booklet print option attempts to fit two logical pages of your PDF file into the printable area of each physical sheet of paper. Assuming that your printer's Letter page is defined as having a printable area of 8"x10.5" due to a 0.25" non-printable area surrounding the page, then the Booklet print option will force each of the 5.5"x8.5" pages of your PDF file into a 5.17'x8" area centered on each half of the 8.5"x11" printed sheet.
There are three workarounds that I know of:
(1)    Many high end printers have booklet printing capabilities in the printer or printer driver itself. Check the detailed driver options to see whether in fact your printer / printer driver does support a booklet printing option. If so, try that first. That would likely solve your problem.
(2)    Assuming that this is a PostScript printer, edit the .PPD file for the printer you are using to to modify the specification of the Letter printable area. In the PPD file, you will see an entry similar to this:
    *ImageableArea Letter/Letter: "18 18 594 774"
or
    *ImageableArea Letter/US Letter: "18 18 594 774"
Edit the entry to change only the four numbers as follows:
    *ImageableArea Letter/Letter: "0 0 612 792"
That indicates to the PostScript driver that there is no unprintable border on your pages. Then save the .PPD file. I would then suggest rebooting and then trying to print. Note that the side effect of this is that Fit and Shrink oversized pages options will not take into account the non-printable area of your printer.
Note that a similar hack can be done with Ledger (i.e. 11"x17") page descriptions in the PPD to fix a similar issue affecting printing 8.5"x11" pages to 11"x17" sheets as booklets.
(3)    There are some very reliable third party plugins for Acrobat that provide full advanced document imposition capabilities, creating what are known as printer flats as a new PDF file from your logical pages. There are n-up, booklet, step-and-repeat, etc. options galore in such packages. Examples include Quite Imposing and PDF Snake. I have personally used Quite Imposing for nearly 15 years for this purpose and can vouch that it works beautifully. I don't have personal experience with PDF Snake, although it is less expensive.
Good luck and let us know if any of this helps you at all!

PDF file prints fine from Acrobat reader XI, but not Acrobat Standard XI

I have a 2 page document that is set up as tabloid 11x17, meant to be printed duplexed and folded as a 4 pamphlet. The document with the same printer settings prints fine from Adobe Reader XI but from Adobe Standard XI, Page 1 prints fine, but page 2 looks like it is trying to print on the backside of an 81/2x11 instead of 11x17. I have played with the print settings in Standard, and cannot come up with a combination that prints that document correctly, yet it prints fine from Acrobat Reader XI. I did double check for updates on both products and installed them. Anyone have any idea as to why this is happening? If I print page 2 by itself it does print properly, just not when sent duplexed with page 1.

Well, for those following this thread or needing a solution, I found a work-around though I'm still not sure why the initial problem exists.
In Acrobat 9 Pro, once you have the main print dialogue box open, follow the steps below:
1) Click ADVANCED
2) Select PRINT AS IMAGE
3) Set DPI to 300
4) Click OK
5) Make any other typical print setup adjustments as you normally would and finish printing as usual

Can not longer print pdf from Acrobat Reader

All of a sudden I can no longer print pdf files to my printer. It is shared by all the computers in our household and any time I try to print from any of the computers now, instead of printing it creates a prn file instead. I can find no option in the printer properties where selecting or deselecting something to enable or disable printing to files. All the systems are either MS Vista or Windows 7. Though there are commands that allow sending a prn to a network printer, they require a named print server, which we don’t have on our peer-to-peer network.
It is interesting that I can create a pdf file in Photoshop on my system and it will print from Photoshop. I can also print the “problematic” documents for Photoshop, which I only have on one system. But anything created in Acrobat will not print natively from Acrobat reader.

In the Print dialog click on Advanced, then uncheck Print to File.

How to print photos from my iphone?

I have the HP Photosmart C309a,(wireless) and would like to know how to print photos from my iphone 3G.
I have the "app" "HP ePrint Home & Biz", but I don't know if it's compatible with my printer?

The app is compatible with your printer IF it is connected to a network (not via USB to a printer).
If it is not working restart your router by pulling its power plug momentarily.

Hello 518,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
It would appear that the HP Photosmart Plus 209B is not compatible with AirPrint. Without AirPrint you can only print via an App.
I suggest the ePrint App. Getting Started with HP ePrint Mobile Apps<---

[JS CS3 Win] Export to PDF then auto-print PDF from Acrobat

Hello!
I am working on the script that is exporting pages to PDF, and would like to automatically send exported PDF to print from Acrobat.
I get the scripting part for exporting to PDF, and it's working very well, but I have trouble on the part of the script that tells Acrobat to open the PDF and send it to printer. Script is run from InDesign, so I thought this is right forum to ask.
The following part of the script is working OK on one computer, but on other two computers with similar configuration (CS3. Windows, Acrobat 8) it doesn't work at all and I can't figure out where is the problem:
var printFile = "/c/temp/test.pdf";
var remoteScript = "printFile = decodeURI('"+printFile+"');\n";
remoteScript += "var doc = app.openDoc({cPath: printFile});\n";
remoteScript += "var pp = doc.getPrintParams();\n";
remoteScript += "pp.pageHandling = pp.constants.handling.shrink;\n";
remoteScript += "pp.NumCopies = 2;\n";
remoteScript += "pp.interactive = pp.constants.interactionLevel.silent;\n";
remoteScript += "pp.printerName = '\\\\hrhqzgw23prn01\\\hr300019ps';\n";
remoteScript += "doc.print(pp);\n";
remoteScript += "doc.closeDoc(true);";
acrobat.executeScript(remoteScript);
I would appreciate any help. thank you.

Hi Mark,
Here is a sample script. It exports the active InDesign document to pdf file, using its base name, to the root of C drive. Then opens the exported file in Acrobat, prints it to the default printer and silently closes it.
Tested on InDesign 5.0.3, Acrobat 8.0.0, Windows XP SP3.
#target indesign
var myIndesignDoc = app.activeDocument;
var myBaseName = GetFileNameOnly(myIndesignDoc.name);
var myFile = new File( "/C/" + myBaseName + ".pdf" );
myIndesignDoc.exportFile( ExportFormat.pdfType, myFile, false );
var myScript = 'var myAcrobatDoc = app.openDoc( "/C/' + myBaseName + '.pdf" );\n';
myScript += 'myAcrobatDoc.print( {bUI: false, bSilent: true} );\n';
myScript += 'myAcrobatDoc.closeDoc( true );';
var bt = new BridgeTalk;
bt.target = "acrobat";
bt.body = myScript;
bt.send();
function GetFileNameOnly(myFileName) {
    var myString = "";
    var myResult = myFileName.lastIndexOf(".");
    if (myResult == -1) {
        myString = myFileName;
    else {
        myString = myFileName.substr(0, myResult);
    return myString;
Short explanation of the acrobat script:
1. Open the pdf file, just exported from InDesign
var myAcrobatDoc = app.openDoc( "/C/' + myBaseName + '.pdf" );
2. To print the document silently I use the doc object’s print method and set the following parameters:
bUI -- Determines whether to present a user interface to the user
bSilent -- Suppresses the Cancel dialog box while the document is printed
myAcrobatDoc.print( {bUI: false, bSilent: true} );
3. Close the document without notifying the user:
myAcrobatDoc.closeDoc( true );

Printing difference from acrobat pro or acrobat reader

Hi,
I noticed when i maken pdf files from inDesign ansd print from my computer the fonts are printed fine and sharp (from acrobat pro) but when other people are printing the documents from the reader version the fonts aan kinda blurred and grainy..
I first thought fonts were nog embedded right, but that's not the issue.. The pdf says it's embedded just fine, and eve with the font installed locally it doesn;t make a difference..
For the rest the computers are installed the same and printer settings are equal. The only difference is i have installed the CS5 package on my machine and the rest doesn't.
Is there a difference when printing from the acrobat reader?

Difficulty printing colors from Acrobat 8 PDF

I'm running Acrobat 8.1.2 and InDesign CS3 5.0.2.
We created a file in ID3 using two boxes containing Pantone color with transparency added. The color appears over a placed tif graphic that also had some transparency applied and a placed PDF with no transparency. Everything works properly when the file is exported to Acrobat 8 and printed from Acrobat 8.
We sent the file to a user in another area who still has Acrobat 7 and when they print the file they lose the colors. If we send the job to their printers from Acrobat 8 the colors print correctly so it doesn't seem to be a printer issue.
The Acrobat 7 user can print the file by choosing Print as Image under Output, but we are looking for what is causing the difficulty. Any ideas would be grealy appreciated.

I have no idea about the extend tool. You need to update to the latest version of AA 8, but it appears you are there with 8.3.1. You should print to the Adobe PDF printer. OFFICE 2013 is not compatible with the AA8 PDF Maker. So far I have only seen one person suggesting success with AA8 and Win8.1. If you can give details about your problem, we might be able to help, but you may not be successful. Only time and trial will tell.

How to print pictures from video

Does anyone know how you can print pictures from a video that is transferred from the iphone to my computer? I can print the first image at the beginning of the video, but when I try to print a pictures from a later from it doesn't do it. I hope someone can help. Thanks!

You mean videos you've recorded with your iPhone 3G S camera? It's easy: play it back in an app compatible with the videos and also having screenshot making capabilties.
For example, the free(!) and very nice VLC Player, which I prefer using for this, is compatible with these videos and can take screenshots (Video / Snapshot). This way you'll avoid the problems of invisible screenshots because of the video RAM issues with hardware acceleration.
