Pdf files printing in reverse color.  How do I fix?

Adobe Reader is printing all files in reverse color (black background with white text).  How do I fix this?  All other programs print fine.

Hey,
Please let me know what is your Reader version.
Open Reader and go to Edit->Preferences->Accessibility and deselect 'Replace Document Colors' option.
If this does not help, then try repairing Adobe Reader and then check.
Let me know.

  • PDF files print in reverse order per page

    Hi - I am trying to figure out if this is an adobe issue or a printing issue.  It is happening only on this user who is on Adobe 9.1 -everyone else is on 7.0 and they aren't having this issue.  So maybe it  is  a combo.
    When the user prints a PDF which was a powerpoint file (she did not creat it was sent via email) she selects 2 per page and hten selects doublesided - landscape and collates staples top left hand side.
    File prints doublesided and collates, but what would be slide one would be on the bottom of the page and what would be slide 2 would show at the top.  On the back of the 1st page  slide 3 is at the the bottom and slide 4 is at the top.  Staples at the bottom right.
    Printer settings seem ok......there is a selection for order and top to bottom is selected.  Reverse order is NOT selected.
    Are there any settings in Adobe that would cause this?  I have googled and though there are some similar questions no one has answered.
    specs:
    Windows XP Professional SP3
    Adobe 9.1 (latest updates)
    Canon IR C5185 (multifunction color)
    thanks in advance. Robin

  • Acrobat Pro 8.0 CS3 - PDF file print in Mac OS 10.5.8 fixed!

    Since upgrade from version 7.0, Acrobat Pro PDF 8.0 printer kept pausing and wouldn't print document.
    I previously had same trouble with the Acrobat PDF 7.0 printer, but eventually got that to work with a command entered via terminal mode:
    Adobe PDF print (OS 10.5.6) work-around using UNIX command entered via the Terminal;
    In Terminal type the following if you are using Acrobat 7.x:
    sudo chmod 4755 /usr/libexec/cups/backend/pdf700
    Plan A for today: Tried same thing for v. 8.0;
    In Terminal type the following if you are using Acrobat 8.x:
    sudo chmod 4755 /usr/libexec/cups/backend/pdf800
    This didn't work, so went to Plan B;
    The other  suggested approach is to remove various PDF printer library files and then follow with the Adobe "repair" function.
    Remove following files and then "Repair" from Adobe menu;
    /Library/Printers/PPD Plugins/AdobePDFPDE800.plugin
    /Library/Printers/PPDs/Contents/Resources/en.lproj/ADPDF8.ppd
    ~/Library/Printers/Adobe PDF 8.0.app
    /private/etc/cups/ppd/AdobePDF8.ppd
    /usr/libexec/cups/backend/pdf800
    This didn't work before, so went to Plan C;
    I looked through all discussion threads again, a few mentioned installing latest update to Acrobat Pro 8 ... I had already done that, or so I thought ... I went again to update menu command within Acrobat, and it plainly reported that "Adobe doesn't have any updates at this time" just as it had before.
    I then compared my installed rev. version vs. the latest updates available for manual download, and found I was several behind.
    I then manually installed each one in sequence and towards the end of the process, Acrobat opened a pop-up window telling me there were updates available, and asked if I wanted to install them. Go figure, one of the manual updates fixed the menu updater not working correctly. Not sure which one, but I eventually landed at version 8.3.1. I repeated "Plan B", and now the PDF printer is working again.
    I guess with trial & error, even a blind squirrel will find a nut ...

  • Strange PDF files printing inverted colors!?

    I help support an office with several macs. Two of my remote office computers have an odd problem. In Apple Preview PDF files print inverted colors. If I open the PDF in Adobe reader they print normal. They are both trying to print to Samsung ML320 printers. I have yet to find any settings in Preview or in the printer setup that would allow this to happen. For now my fix is to set Adobe reader as the default application for viewing PDF files. Worked until one employee (also running Mac) sent the remote offices a PDF file attached in Apple Mail. Somehow ONLY PDF files from this person force default to Apple Preview. How can a file override system settings to choose it's default app? Strange and again only files coming for this particular mac force a default to Preview app. So it seems these two problems combined are making things difficult here. Anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks,
    A.J.

    I am still having this issue on a users machine. It is to the point where I may just reimage the whole laptop. The end user went to print a two page PDF from Apple Preview the other day and the first page was inverted and the second was not! How is this possible? The PDF is fine when printed from other machines and again only Apple Preview does this. I can use Adobe PDF reader and it prints normal.

    I can save the page, open in Adobe Reader and print. When in the browser the File - Print command does nothing. Printer screen does not open.

    Hi,
    One thing to slow it down: low ink. Please check ink cartridges and replace if required.

    What you are trying to do is upload a file to a server not download. Depending on the mechanism that the server uses an alternate browser like iCab may be able to do this.

  • I want to insert .pdf files into a "Master" .pdf file at pre-determined intervals - how do I do this?

    I want to insert .pdf files into a "Master" .pdf file at pre-determined intervals - how do I do this?

    Hi markm11762689,
    When you insert pages, you can determine whether they go before or after the first or last page, or a page number that you specify.
    If you're inserting multiple files at once, they will all be inserted in the same spot that you specify in the Select File to Insert dialog box.
    There may be a way to handle this programmatically, and there are some very clever folks who visit these forums regularly. Let's see if they chime in...
    Best,
    Sara

  • Why have I lost PDF printing capability through the File Print menu?  When will it be fixed?

    Why have I lost PDF printing capability through the File>Print menu?  When will it be fixed?

    What app are you using to view PDF files? Preview can be a poor choice for some PDF files - I recommend using Adobe Reader - http://get.adobe.com/reader/ - perhaps it will solve your printing problem.

  • Why won't pdf files print from Safari?

    why won't pdf files print from Safari? I get blank pages. They print fine from Firefox. OS X 10.8.4

    Back up all data.
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, there should be a setting in its preferences such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected. Otherwise do as follows.
    Triple-click the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • I'm wondering if i can upload .pdf file to iCloud?? How?

    i'm wondering if i can upload .pdf file to iCloud?? How?

    icloud was never set up to be your storage for PDF's, has completely different purpose, but if that is so important to you to have those pdf's in icloud - email them to your icloud mail account, if size permits. Emails will also be accessible for opening or deletion. Try to realize that icloud is not an app like Kindle, but rather online storage/sync service for certain things. You also can probably find an app in app store that would support holding pdf's and using icloud to sync over devices, or app that uses NON Apple storage means. Like Dropbox for example. If you download that kind of App - you may also get a free storage upgrade from those apps. I have seen such offers.
