Issue in Duplex Printing in Acrobat 9 Pro

Hi,
I have issues in duplex printing it comes out inverted. 1 side is correct and the other side is in the other direction.
Im using windows 7 and an HP 8500 wireless. Microsoft word is working fine so im assuming the printer driver is working ok.
Any ideas will really help.
Thanks

  • Can't Duplex print from Acrobat Pro 9.3.2 to Epson Artisan 800

    I can not duplex Print from Acrobat Pro 9.3.2 to an Epson Artisan 800.
    I an running it from a MacBook Pro with OSX 10.6.3
    I called Epson support and they could not help me.
    However they suggested that I try using Adobe Reader.
    Well that works OK if I choose to print the document as an image, but I would prefer to just be able to work within Acrobat Pro.
    Does anyone outthere have any settings within Acrobat Pro that would enable duplex printing?
    Thanks

    All this is totally different Screen (I use a HP DJ 990cse) This sort  amplifies Larry's Answer:

  • The document could not be printed with Acrobat Pro 9.5.1

    All at once the Adobe Acrobat Pro version 9.5.1 gives the error 'The document could not be printed', 'there were no pages select to print'.
    I have no idea what the problem is, all printing from other applications is fine, without any problem. A pdf in an email can be printed from my iPhone, but not from the PC (win 7 Ultimate SP1, 64 bit).
    All pdf's have this problem, no matter if they stem from a download or made with Word or InDesign.
    I de-installed and installed Acrobat Pro, no result. I also de-installed and installed the whole CS4 bundle, no result.
    I also re-installed the printer, no luck.
    I visited a lot of fora without succes. Is there someone that can help me with this?
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    Thanks for reporting the problem.
    It seems you are unable to print any pdf from Acrobat. You mentioned that you are able to print the same PDFs from iphone and other devices.
    Are you able to print from any other application(e.g. word, notepad) from the same machine where you are seeing the issue. It looks to me that your machine is not able to establish contact with the printer but your other devices are able to.
    Please confirm.
    Thanks,

  • Color printing From Acrobat PRO 9.0

    I am trying to print in color from acrobat pro 9.0 but i get only black & prints.
    I found out from previous post that i have to diable the color management. I can change it from File->print->advanced->color management  but I am not abe to save it.
    does anybody have the same issue?

    Have you tried going back to the default print settings in the Print dialog under the Advanced button and select Acrobat Default under the Settings dropdown?

  • FrameMaker 8.0p277 and printing to Acrobat Pro 8 & 9

    All this year (2009) I've been working on several contract documents using FrameMaker's conditional text facility.
    FrameMaker is 8.0p277 and the OS is Windows XP Pro SP3.
    In May the old workstation became cantankerous so I updated to a new HP xw4600 with a Quad Core, 4GB ram, and 2 x 250GB SATA disks. Cool!
    I applied all the MS updates and then treated myself to a clean install of Adobe Design Premium CS4, then installed and updated FrameMaker 8.0 (without the PDF Maker). The Adobe Acrobat Professional 9.0 in CS4 was patched to 9.1.2.
    If I open a document in InDesign CS4 and print it to the 'Adobe PDF' printer everything works just fine. Same for Illustrator CS4.
    But FrameMaker fails with this message:
    ... followed by:
    I have also attached the most recent FrameLog fiole...
    Howsomever, if I print the same document to my HP laserjet 4300dtn (or the laserjet 5200 or the FujiXerox DocuPrint 2100) it works just fine. So I assume the document itself is OK.
    If I select the printer to be one of the 3 above and then print to file (and create a .PS file), and then open it in Distiller 9.1.2 it produces a perfect .PDF file (shades of Acrobat 3 and the watched folders here!). But, if I select AdobePDF printer as my output device before generating the .PS file, Distiller reports parsing errors and does not produce output.
    With a doffed hat to Arnis and Dov I refrained from trying 'save to PDF'
    This looks like a corrupt printer driver...
    After talking to Adobe Support (ID 121 702 309) I have tried each of the following (and then re-run my testing cycle as outlined above):
    Running the 'Repair Acrobat Installation' process from Acrobat Pro 9.1.2.
    Setting Acrobat PDF as my default printer (strong whiff of "eyes of a bat and wings of a newt" about THAT suggestion).
    Un-installed and then reinstalled Acrobat Pro 9.1.2.
    Un-installed and reinstalled FrameMaker 8.0p277.
    Un-installed and then reinstalled Acrobat Pro 8.1.4.
    Un-installed and reinstalled FrameMaker 8.0p277.
    Sworn loudly.
    Anyone have some ideas / fixes / incantations???

    Hi Laurence,
    If you can produce PDFs from the AdoebPDF via ID and AI by printing, then I'd suspect that the driver is probably ok. (Note: from ID and AI, it is better to SaveAs PDF, since these have their own internal PDF generation capabilities.)
    Also, with FM8, if you're making interactive PDFs (i.e. not for press), then it is ok to do the SaveAsPDF route, since FM has some post-processing modules that kick in to clean-up the .tps file prior to handing it over to Distiller. So, the process is no longer is identical to printing to file and distilling.
    On the FM side, make sure that the tagged PDF setting is turned off in your PDF setup and have the setting for generating named destinations for all paragraphs enabled.
    You also might want to download Sundorne's SetPrint ( http://www.sundorne.com/FrameMaker/Freeware/setPrint.htm  ) utility to ensure that you always have the same printer instance (AdobePDF) enabled when you start FM.
    Have you also applied the MS hotfix for the PDF font issues? Details are available here: http://blogs.adobe.com/techcomm/2008/07/hotfix_for_framemaker_1.html
    Last desperation move would be to create a new custom PDF printer instance using the Distller PPD and a copy of the AdobePS installer.

  • Printing to Acrobat Pro 9

    I am having an issue where certain files will not print to Acrobat. It doesn't ask for a name, then appears to go through the process of creating a PDF but does not create one. I know you can export, which I am forced to do but it interferes with the workflow I've created for consistency.
    I am currently using IDCS4 & Acrobat Pro 9, but the same thing was happening with IDCS2.

    Have you tried to actually print those documents to a real printer?
    Could be something in the document causing a problem.
    But... no way I'd ever send a flattened PDF to a client for
    approval. Too many possible issues with flattening that could result in
    a less than stellar on screen preview.
    Fielding phone calls about those "little white lines" all over the place
    would drive me batty.

  • Color issues in Mountain Lion with Acrobat Pro

    I'm not sure I'm in the right forum, but here it goes.
    Since upgrading my OS to Mountain Lion, I've noticed  when viewing PDFs output from InDesign 5.5 that once in Acrobat Pro the colors look muted and inaccurate.  I never saw this in Snow Leopard, hence my posting.  Color in InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop CS5.5 seem just fine, it's only when a PDF is viewed in Acrobat that I see this muted color issue. 
    What I'm concerned with is are these problems when viewing only, or is the PDF color range itself screwed up?  I do prepress work and am using an Eizo CG241 display, CS5.5 and Acrobat Pro 10.1.4.
    Thanks!

    If you are using a calibrated display, the calibration software should set your Displays>Color profile for you. Mine is set to "PA271W 0610738UA 2012-11-14 14-57", which is the name of the profile created by the calibration software. This is where color temperature, gamma, and color corrections are stored (in my case for prepress work at 5000K and 1.8 gamma).
    Sorry about this long-winded posting, but I think the last few paragraphs may help make some progress, and I must first digress to get to them...
    Control of color profiles embedded in my PDF files is done in Adobe Creative Suite (verson 6 at this time). I use Bridge to synchronize the suite. North American Web/Internet is for files going to the web and I apply sRGB to those files when opening them (if they aren't already sRGB). North American Prepress 2 is for files going to a printing press, and I apply Adobe RGB to files when opening them (if they aren't already Adobe RGB).
    Files for the web are saved using Photoshop's "Save for Web..." command, which is set to sRGB and uses the Document Profile for a preview.
    Files for print are converted to CMYK and placed in InDesign or Illustrator, where they are saved as PDF/X-1a files, which are CMYK and those values are preserved (not color managed). I should note that before that point, during client proofs, the files are placed as Adobe RGB. They are replaced by CMYK images before making a PDF/X-1a file for the printing press. Either way, the files display correctly and identically (except for any color gamut differences) regardless of color mode or application. (This is color management working correctly.) Except for Acrobat and Reader.
    Until CS6, all PDF files would be displayed by Acrobat identically to how they appeared in the originating application (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign). Now all PDF files are darker, more drab, and shifted slightly toward blue.
    Here's the weird thing. No matter what I do, even if I start with an sRGB file and save it as a Photoshop PDF using the Save for Web command, so it has been sRGB throughout the process, when the PDF file is viewed in Acrobat or Reader it is darker, more drab, and shifted slightly toward blue.
    My first hypothesis was that Acrobat and Reader were applying sRGB to everything. But that appears to be wrong. Now I'm thinking that it's my calibrated display profile that is being ignored. And since it is calibrated for 5000K and 1.8 gamma, that is what explains the big shift in darkness, vividness, and color. It may be that the display profile, not the embedded color profile, is all that matters!
    If so, a good experiment would be to calibrate one of your displays for 5000K and 1.8 gamma. If Acrobat and Reader are ignoring the display profile, you should see a very obvious difference in displayed PDF files compared to displays using 6500K and 2.2 gamma (which is just about everyone these days, except for publishing professionals who do exacting print work).
    Sheesh!

  • Cannot Print in Acrobat Pro 9.4.2 (XP Pro SP3), but Other Apps Can

    I am unable to print PDFs on my workstation unless I drag them from a Windows Explorer session and drop them on an open printer window (Start, Printers and Faxes, double-click on printer to open window). I have Acrobat 9 Professional (ver. 9.4.2) running under Windows XP Pro (SP3). I cannot print a PDF from within Acrobat or from within a browser window. I have done a "repair install" on Acrobat and rebooted. When I try to print from within Acrobat or a browser window, I do not receive any form of error message. There is no indication of any problem. If I have the printer window open window (Start, Printers and Faxes, double-click on printer to open window) and I try to print from Acrobat or a browser, I never see anything appear in the window, even briefly. If I drag a PDF from Windows Explorer and drop it in the printer window, the document name appears briefly in the window and the document prints.
    I have double checked my printer settings from within Acrobat to make sure that it is not "printing to file." The correct printer *is* selected.
    I've tried printing to different printers in the office. I've even tried printing to the "virtual printer" which is a front-end to our fax server. No dice. If I monitor the printers folder (which lists every printer that my workstation can print to currently), the "documents" column (which shows the number of documents in the queue to be printed) never changes from zero.
    The fact that I can drag a PDF from Windows Explorer and drop it on a printer and get it to print really puzzles me, since I thought that this was only possible if either Acrobat Pro (or other paid version) or Acrobat Reader was installed. That is, I thought that Windows XP cannot print a PDF unless some sort of PDF reader (Acrobat, Nitro, etc.) is installed. Then again, I may be mistaken. *IF* indeed Windows XP doesn't know how to print a PDF without help from a PDF reader of some sort (Acrobat Reader, Nitro, etc.), then how is it that I can drag, drop and print, but I can't print from within Acrobat Pro itself? Meanwhile, all other apps print just fine to any given printer.
    FYI... this question has languished for two weeks with no solution at experts-exchange.com. I've never stumped them before. I've never waited more than 24 hours for an answer there before, and usually a solution takes just an hour or two. This suggests to me that my situation is quite rare. Can anyone get me on track?

  • Duplex printing with officejet pro 8000

    I am using this officejet pro 8000 to print up some newsletters.  When printing a two sided copy (duplex printing) something happens which changes my border setting.  Printing the exact same document, but electing one-sided copy renders a perfect border.  I would not have a problem copying just one side, then re-loading those in order to make two-sided copies, but the friction caused by the ink on the pages causes mulitple sheets to feed at the same time, jamming the printer.  Has HP ever come up with a fix for this?  I have seen this problem on the net, but the best folks have done (that I have seen) is to upload drivers for older machines.  This has rendered good borders on duplex prints, but diminishes the quality of the print copy.  Whatcha think?

Mac Help senior customized my settings by adding "duplex printing" to the "Presets" list.
    Are you using the latest drivers from HP? If I set up a printer with the HP Officejet Pro 8000 A809 Series PPD, I can see Two-Sided to the right of Collated if the HP Two-sided Printing Accessory (Duplexer) is checked in the Print & Fax -> Options & Supplies -> Driver tab. If this is not checked, Two-Sided won't appear.
    MAC HAS TO CREATE A PATCH TO SIMPLIFY THIS SNOW LEOPARD ERROR!
    Apple doesn't write the HP software.
    Hope this helps.

  • Is there easy way to print bookmarks Acrobat Pro 9.5

    Is there an easy way to print the bookmarks of an Acrobat file using Acrobat Pro 9.5?
    Is there an easy way to expand all headings?
    Thank you

    Here is something you can try:
    With your file open, and assuming it has all the bookmarks setup:
    Simply export to HTML (File > Export > HTML > I picked HTML 3.2). That should create an HTML file.
    Open the new HTML file and the first thing you should see is a list of all the bookmarks!!!
    This worked for me (I have Adobe 9). Let me know if it works for you.
    P.S. After copying the list, I pasted in Word and changed the bullets to numbers by right clicking one of the bullets and selecting Numbering!

  • Booklet Printing in Acrobat Pro 8 Help!

    I am printing 500 of an 18 page - 5 page in the signature - booklet through Acrobat Pro 8.0.1. It takes HOURS for the file to load into the printer and I am only trying to print 50 at a time. I changed the default printer to Adobe PDF 8.0.1 and that did not help. Any tips, hints etc. or should I just flagellate myself for taking this job I thought was going to be so quick and easy! Laughing, but not very hard....
    Thank you in advance for any help...
    Kathy
    I am on a Mac...still on Tiger.

    It seems as though the PDF is expanding back to postscript when you hit
    print and a HUGE postscript file is chugging across the network.
    Does your printer support hot-folders? In other words, can you take the
    PDF and just DROP into the printer queue? This is the way many systems
    these days work - gets away from the donkey work on your end ...

  • Issues with Office 2010 and Acrobat Pro 8

    Good Day All;
    We are in the middle of upgrading from Windows XP to Windows 7 with Office 2010 and I was wondering if there are any issues with importing Office documents into Acrobat Pro 8. I have found out that there are a couple of issue with Office 201 and LifeCycle Designer.
    Any comments would be helpful
    Regards
    Chomp

    Acrobat 8 is not compatible with Microsoft Office 2010 and the PDFMaker plugins will not install. Only Acrobat X is compatible with Office 2010, and at this time only in 32-bit mode.
    Acrobat 8 is also not officially compatible with Windows 7, again Acrobat X is the first version to carry approval for that OS. It will still install, but Adobe cannot guarantee it will operate perfectly in all cases, and doesn't provide install support for that combination.

  • Printing from acrobat pro 9 with yosemite on iMac retina

    My new iMac will not print an annotated form using a completely updated Acrobat Pro 9.5.5. Is there a driver that is missing? When I try to open the form in "Preview" it comes out garbled. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    thanks for the push to getting a cache cleaner -- tried and will see if it keeps the problem in hand.

  • Duplex printing using Acrobat SDK 7.05

    Hi ,
    I am developing an acobat plugin which will help me in getting silent prints. My requirement is for DUPLEX printing, I have a strict requirement of using Acobat API 7.05. I know its possible with Acrobat 8.0 and 8.1 API.
    Is it possible to do it with 7.05 API ?
    Thanks

  • Will not print in Acrobat Pro

    I cannot get any document to print in Adobe, but all other programs on my computer print fine. Should I reload? I have the Acrobat Pro one year subscription. If I reload, will it count that I have downloaded twice and not let me reload?

    First of all, reinstalling will not count as a new subscription.
    What is more important is for you to describe the symptoms to us? Exactly what happens when it doesn't print? What platform (computer type and OS) are you on? What type of printer are you trying to print to? Etc.?
