LR won't print. No Source File?

Trying to print in LR 5.7.1. I get msg saying "image lacks a source file and will not be printed". Images were downloaded from camera card into LR and exported to hard drive. What am I missing here?

A few additional details: This file was imported into LR as a raw file, edited in PS CC, saved as a PSD file, and that's what I was trying to print with LR as a drill in learning the program. Now I have saved it as a JPEG, imported that into LR and it printed just fine. Apparently PSD doesn't work in LR, but JPEG does.

  • Acrobat Pro XI Mac won't print a .pdf file, but Apple Preview will print correctly

    Hello,
    I have Acrobat Pro XI for Mac.  recently I've run into pdf files that will show the document on screen ok, show up on print preview screen ok, but when I send it to a printer I either get:
    1.  no printout... the document passes through the printer queue ok, but nothing comes out (no blank paper, nothing).  no data seems to even reach the printer/print server.  no error.  the print job basically vanishes into thin air like the job was never sent
    2.  prints out with all the characters of a text substituted with squares (again, no error. just prints squares instead of text)
    But when I print the same document using Apple's Preview program on the same machine, the file prints out fine.
    I experience this problem with two different Macs, with two different OS versions.  Again both machines will print the .pdf file fine using Apple Preview, but not with Acrobat Pro XI.
    I've searched for this problem, but no one seems to have this problem. I've tried just printing one page, etc., and no difference (won't print, or print wrong using Acrobat, but prints fine using Preview)
    the files are typically sent via e-mail from a vendor, or a web downloaded form (invoice, forms filled out.  some are secure, some are not).  and these are from multiple sources.
    Any ideas what might be the problem, and how to fix this?
    system:
    Mac Pro (early 2008) and MacBook Pro (mid-2011)
    MacOS 10.8.4 and 10.6.8 (multiple computers have this same problem)
    Acrobat Pro XI, 11.0.04
    printer: HP LaserJet 5MP (yes.. old.. but it works) via HP JetDirect + print server on  LAN

    I just found this solution on another board, I tried it  (I removed the same file listed below) and it worked for me.... 
    Safari won’t save or print PDFs: how to fix
    :: Tuesday, January 29th, 2013 @ 5:29:46 am
    :: Tags: Computers
    If Safari won’t save or print PDFs (but views them without any problems), you probably have an Adobe PDF plug-in installed. In Safari, go to Help->Installed Plug-ins and do a search for “PDF.” If you have anything with “PDF” in it other than “WebKit built-in PDF,” that is probably the culprit.
    On my computer, the problem was “AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin”. To remove it, I quit Safari, did a Spotlight search (Command-Option space) for that file name, and then dragged it to the trash. When I restarted Safari, I could print and save PDFs again. You can also manually find the plugins by going to the system “Library”  folder (the one at the root of your hard disk, not in your user folder) and looking in the “Internet Plug-Ins” folder.
    I’m on OS X 10.8.2, running Safari 6.0.2 (8536.26.17).

  • Preview won't print some PDF files

    Hi everyone, I know a similar problem has been already discussed but it was not solved.
    When I print some PDF files from Preview on a Lexmark C524 color laser printer, I get only figures and symbols but no text. If I print the same files on a HP 2100 it prints ok.
    I thought it was the printer driver, but then I tried the same using Adobe Reader 9.1 and it prints fine on all printers. So my guess is that it might be some PDF version compatibility issue with Preview.
    Any idea anybody?
    You can find one of the PDF giving problems at the following address: http://www.pnas.org/content/106/1/97.full.pdf
    Thank you,
    A.

    Is there anything in Concole or the CUPS log (/var/log/cups/error_log)? It could be a font problem, but one of the places above should have some indication.
    Hope this helps.

  • Premiere won't accept new source files in slightly different formats...

    I'm using CS3 (and I installed CS4 and got the same problem).  I've created a video using six different source videos that were originally encoded in XVID.  I now know that was a bad idea but at the time I didn't know how to convert the video so I went ahead and used them.  Now my project crashes to the desktop whenever I open it without any sort of error message.
    This is a project that I started over a year ago and I set it aside because I didn't want to deal with the issue, but I really want to finish this project.  Now I have a better handle on what sort of codecs work well with premiere and I use Super C to convert the videos to a friendly format and I haven't had any problems with my projects crashing since then.
    So now I've revisted the project that is crashing and I have tried converting the original source videos to a more friendly format, but hte problem is, even when I get it to a format that is pretty much exactly the same settings as the original (size, fps, etc) premiere won't accept it.  When I open the project and it asks me "Where is the file..." I'll point to the new file and premiere tells me "The selected file cannot be linked because its type (video) does not match original file's type (audio and video)".. I try this after opening the project by right clicking on the asset and choosing "link media..." but of course I get the same error message.
    What i've gotten done in the project is like 10 hours worth of work and it would be a shame to lose all of it just because Premiere is too picky about switching from one media type to another .. what are my options in getting this to work?

    Welcome to the forum.
    Yes, Xvid is a delivery-only format for delivery-only, but you know that too.
    What I would do would be to Open that original Project, and then Offline the original Video. If you named the converted files the same, except for the extension, you should be able to then Import the replacement files and manually replace those. Make sure that when you choose to Offline the Assets, that you do a Save_As, so that the original Project is NOT overwritten - keep it safe.
    You might try to Relink from the Project Panel, before you do the Import. I do not know if that will be allowed, due to the extension difference, but that would be the easiest way, if it works. Try that first. With the material Offline, Rt-click on each AV file, and choose Link Media. If you used the same file names, you should be able to find the converted versions. Let us know if this works, or if you get rejected.
    Good luck,

  • Won't print any .pdf files

    I cannot get any .pdf file to print from my Macbook. Is there something i might have inadvertently checked or unchecked or done that might have made this happen? It doesn't matter if it is a file I create or if it is an email attachement, they all send to the printer and then in the printer tray it says stopped and won't restart or print.
    Thank you for any help.

    More information...
    the printer says "error cannot create pdfdocumentref and then a window pops up that says
    client-error-not-possible"
    any ideas what that means?

  • Hp LaserJet 4050n won't print Adobe PDF Files

    I have a new Computer with Adobe Reader 8.1 with Windows XP Home. I have a HP 4050n LaserJet printer. I received two Adobe Pdf files in a email today. My first attempt to print them gave me the following error message:
    PCL XL error
    Subsystem: KERNEL
    Error: ILLegalTag
    Operator: 0x1
    Position: 11005
    I then downloaded the latest HP drivers for XP, PCL 6 and it didn't work.
    I next downloaded HP driver 4050n 5e.
    The first pdf file printed just fine. The Second one printed with letters and symbols running through out the page.
    Can anybody tell me how to solve the problem? Is there a special driver needed for my 4050n printer? Am I using the right version of Adobe?
    Thanks,
    John

    I uninstall the HP5e driver and stayed with the Pcl 6 driver. In order to get the pdf files to print I had to go to advance and select images without a back round. Then the file printed out. Seems like a
    waste of my time.

  • Preview won't print

    Preview won't print most PDF files that I've created using the 'Save as PDF' in the print dialog window. It just spits out blank pages. If I select 'Preview' it show the document correctly but telling it to Print just produces a lot of blank pages.
    This also happens to many PDF files that I've downloaded and were not created on my machine.
    Any ideas what the problem is?
    Thanks in advance

    Sounds like a driver issue. Has this ever worked or is this the first time you've tried? I'd test in a new user to be sure it isn't a corrupt Preview preference (which you could isolate in ~/Library/Preferences/). If the same thing happens in a new user, I'd say it's the printer settings. Try resetting the printer system via Printer Setup Utility and then go back to Sys Prefs > Print & Fax to add your printer. You could need to re-install the driver as well if that doesn't resolve. Good luck!

  • Indesign-generated .pdf files won't print

    I realize this question is vague to the point of being unanswerable, but here I go anyway.
    Our department's publication person sent me a number of chapters of our book in progress so that I could print an uncorrected proof to show to our funding source. She emailed me .pdf files generated by InDesign CS2, probably, although it might have been CS3.
    She also emailed me the indesign file for the frontmatter because I had some things to add, so the .pdf for that I generated myself.
    I took everything to a local printer we regularly use. To print this job he was using a large commercial Canon setup I think. None of the .pdfs would print on it. He ended up having to print them all as images for the purposes of creating a proof for me.
    Now, I printed all of them myself on our networked postscript printer, both from a Mac and a Windows machine, no problem.
    Since the files had been emailed to me, and then to him, we thought maybe they got corrupted, so I brought them over on a disk, but that didn't help, not even the one file whose .pdf I generated myself would print.
    So is this an issue that has come up--indesign-generated .pdf files being unprintable on a commercial printer but printable on a postscript machine.

    Dov and Al,
    Yes, I'm sorry, I do realize that this isn't enough to diagnose a problem. I was hoping that this might be something that has come up before and someone would recognize.
    As far as I could tell, he was opening up the print jobs in Acrobat and sending them to his printer, which had its own job monitor. When he consulted that monitor he just said, no, it won't print.
    He's a smart guy and I've done a number of jobs with him that were generated in indesign, so I'm really at a loss to explain what has gone wrong with this one.

  • Generate xml source file for Oracle Order Capture Print Quote

    Hi,
    I am new to xml and need to work on creating templates for Print Quote.
    I am trying to generate the xml source file for which I enabled the report in system administrator and set the output to XML and assigned to Quoting Reports responsiblity. I then assigned XML Report Publisher to the same responsiblity.
    I ran the report (Print Quote) and then I am trying to run the XML Report Publisher but I cannot get the request id in the list of values.
    I am able to generate xml source file for other reports like Printed Purchase Order etc.,
    The view output for the (Print Quote) report is as follows:
    <?xml version="1.0" ?>
    - <!-- Generated by Oracle Reports version 6.0.8.26.0
    -->
    <ASOPQTER />
    How do I get the xml source file? Or are there seeded templates that I can use to create more templates? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Ravi

    Hi, I am in the same position - did this issue ever ger resolved by anyone. I have done a few XMLP reports successfully now using the Word add-in, but customising the Quote output differs from other standard reports.
    If you look at the data definition for Quote it is a 'dummy' definition and has no XML file attached. Does anyone know how I can get the XML format for the report output?
    Also the template uses XSL-FO ?!?!?! rather than RTF - not sure how to work with this, the Oracle docs are not very helpful in this regard either.
    Has anyone successfully managed to customise the Quote print report? Many thanks,
    Roger

  • Hp laserjet pro 200 My won't print more than 1 file at a time

    My hp laserjet pro 200 m251 won't print more than 1 file at a time. Any ideas?

    Hi @nocastaway,
    I see by your post that you can't print multiple copies. I can help you with this.
    From the application your printing from, go to File, Print, Number of copies select 2. Uncheck Collate. You can now change the number of copies. Collate should now stay unchecked.
    Try printing the multiple page document again.
    You might have to disable all the startup items, to see if there is another program causing this issue.
    How to use MSCONFIG. Click on the Startup tab and disable all.
    Test the printer.
    Then go back in and enable all from the Startup tab.
    Download and run the Print and Scan Doctor if you are still having issues. It will diagnose the issue and might automatically resolve it. Find and fix common printer problems using HP diagnostic tools for Windows?
    What applications have you tried?
    How is the printer connected? (USB/Ethernet/Wireless)
    What operating system are you using? How to Find the Windows Edition and Version on Your Computer.
    What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (did it print or scan, any error messages)
    If you need further assistance, just let me know.
    Have a nice day!

  • HP Laserjet P2055dn won't print pdf files

    I have just hooked up a new iMac with Mac OS 10.9.5 and now my reliable HP Laserjet P2055dn won't print .pdf files anymore--it just hangs for hours. I am an academic and work 50% with pdf's.  I tried to download a new driver from the HP site for all MAC OS systems 10.7 and up, but the message when the download was finished opened up in a little box that reads: "ljp2055_Firmware_Upd Image not recognised."
    I've unplugged, plugged back in, turned off, turned back on countless times. Don't know what else to try?
    Thank you.

  • How to set default PDF print locations to be same as source file

    Is it possible to make the "Save to" location for files created using the Adobe PDF print driver to be the same location as the source file?
    When I checked the prefs dialog box in the Adobe PDF print driver, the only setting I found was to make "PDF Output Folder" either the "My Documents" folder or "Prompt for PDF File Name." I wish there were a third option that said "Same as source file."
    -Danny

    Hi Daniel,<br /><br />Yes, it is possible to do so.<br /><br />Here is the solution:<br /><br />1) Open the PDF.<br />2) File->Print<br />3) Click the Properties button available on Print Dialog Box.<br />4) Select the Adobe PDF Settings Tab and you will find static text "Adobe PDF Output Folder", Go for "Browse" button available against that and select your preferred location.<br />5) Now the drop down menu will display all the options i.e. "My Documents" , "Prompt for PDF File Name" and "<Your selected Option>".<br /><br />I hope this will help resolve your issue.<br /><br />Thanks,<br />Atul Agarwal<br />Adobe Systems

  • I cannot get my photo to print for this reason -there is a photo in this print job which is missing its source file

    I'm working in lightroom to print cards with a custom print size.  When I set up the printer I get a message that reads "There is one photo in the print job which is missing its source file".  The preview shows my card as blank.  What is wrong?

    I would believe what the message is saying, that a photo is missing.  Do you know what photo you're trying to print, and if you look at this photo in Library, does it have a question mark on the thumbnail or other indication that the preview is there but the master photo is gone/moved?

  • Using Adobe 8.1.2 some PDF files won't print

    Since we've upgraded to the latest version of Reader, 8.1.2, some of the files won't print. For example, this morning I got two PDF files in the same email, they both opened in Reader, but only one of them prints--sending to a Canon ImageRunner 5570 printer/copier/fax machine. I'm not getting any error messages on my computer, it just doesn't print?
    If I save a copy of the unprintable PDF to my desktop, then open in Acrobat 6.0 Standard (older version I know), it prints fine to the same printer.
    Does anyone know what's going on here? Best, David.

    We've been having the same problems printing to a Canon ImageRunner 4570, 8.1.2 won't print but 6 will. We can print to our other HP printer fine from 8.1.2, so it seems to be specific to the Canon. Tried printing from a shallow folder structure, but that hasn't seemed to have helped. Anyone heard if this is unique to the Canon printers? Thanks - Mike
