Pdf has become default setting

All of a sudden anything I print (text or photos) shows up as .pdf in preview. As a result my photos are not the size I intend them to be. I haven't changed any settings (that I'm aware of) and I have gone through all my preferences looking for a pdf box to uncheck. This happens with both printers in my network

The Print dialog has a PDF tab whereby you can save
all print jobs as a pdf. Likewise, there is a Preview
tab in the same Print dialog that will make a pdf of
the file and give you a preview of the document in
Preview. If the Print button in the Print dialog is
behaving like the latter process, then it sounds like
the printing system has some major issue. When the
Preview appears, you should have a Print tab. What
happens when you select this? I'm wondering if yet
another preview of the document appears of if the
print job is spooled off to the printer.
If another preview appears I would delete both
printers and reset the printing system, which is a
menu within the Printer Setup Utility. You may then
have to reinstall the printer driver and add the
network printer again, but this may be all that you
need to do.
I'm not sure how to describe the solution to my problem. The more that I looked at "preview", the more the layout looked like an old 4'X6" photo paper setting that I used to use with a previous inkjet printer I had. After restarting the computer and digging through all the places "page layout" could be selected, I was able to rid myself of the no longer useful setting. Now, I am happy to say, I can print without problems. So I thank you for offering a solution to a question that turned out not to actually be my problem. I appreciate your willingness to help.

After upgrading to CS5, printing PDFs has become a nightmare!

After upgrading to CS5, printing PDFs has become a nightmare!
For example,
1. It would never finish printing the file, just the first so many pages. So...
2. I updated the driver, and then I could print one copy only without problems. But...
3. I can never print more than one copy of a PDF without collate mis-sequence problems. It just does not print one whole copy before printing the next copy. And it goes back and forth printing some of the first copy, then the second, then a few pages from the first, etc. Eventually it all prints, but they are mixed up sequentially. But some pages are in order. And...
4. It prints soooo slow compared to before.
I upgraded from CS3

All I know is that before I could print fine and fast and in any quantity I wanted (while using CS3 Indesign exported PDFs and Booklet Spreads on my latest and greatest printer, a Color Ricoh SP C420 DN).
But now, since I upgraded to a Master Suite of CS5, at first it would never print the whole file, even once. And when I upgraded to the Universal Print Driver, and or any other drivers, it will only print one copy of a PDF without mis-sequencing the printed pages, and it is so slow. It is worthless.

P.S. I think I need to try to call Ricoh or something, but will that work? Sigh!
Yeah, this sounds like a general print driver problem with the newer versions of the Adobe products, not just Acrobat or ID. Ricoh may or may not have an updated driver, but theyare definitely the ones to ask.
You haven't told us the OS... Some Mac users have had good luck, I think, using the CUPS drivers with problem printers when the manufacturer doesn't have a solution, but I'm a Windows guy, so don't do much with Mac printing.

Disable a pdf Layer as default setting when printing

Hi All,
I wanted to know if there's a way to set a default setting to always disable a layer before print.
I've a pdf document generated from InDesign and it has two layers. One contains the actual content and other contains the color background. The background needs to be always visible when the pdf is opened but the background will never has to be printed.
Is this possible?
Thanks,
Ganesh K

A layer can be set to always visible and to not print. Just right-click on the layer in the Layers panel and set the properties as you want them.

How do you change the default setting in the motions tab?

Greetings!
We have two macs in our editing suite. Both are running FCP studio 2. One of the macs has a default setting for the drop shadow of 2 in the motion tab. The other mac has the default setting of 10. How can I change the default settings (not as a favorite) so that when I open a clip in the viewer the default setting will always be my preference (1.5) instead of the standard 10. I also want to change the opacity to 90% as the default.
Thanks for your help.

Below is a step-by-step process for changing the default font in CS6, Illustrator, Mac, Mountain Lion, 10.8.2.
There are several additiional steps needed to make this work.
Please feel free to us this for other inquiries.
To Change Default Font in CS6-Ai-Mac-Mountain Lion, 10.8.2
On desktop menu bar, hold down Option key, go to GO, pull down to Library.
Open Application Support, ~ Adobe, ~ Adobe Illustrator CS6, ~ en_us ~ New Document Profiles
Six choices appear (you can change each that you use, one at a time)
Example: Double click Basic RGB.ai
A Basic RGB.ai blank document window opens
In Menu Bar, go to Window ~ Type ~ Character Styles
A sub-window opens with (Normal Character Style) highlighted in Blue
Double click the highlighted name and another sub-window opens
In left of this window, choose Basic Character Formats
Change to desired Font Family, Font Style, Size, etc.
Click OK when finished, widow disappears to reveal Character Styles sub-window
Click anywhere on the blank document in order to get option to Save
Save the document
Close Character Styles sub-window
Quit Illustrator
Re-launch Illustrator CS6 ~ New document … check Font tool to confirm changed default font
Hope this works for other "Lost Adobe Souls" like myself.

Change Default Setting in PDF Set Up Window to RGB

Is it possible to change the default setting in the FrameMaker 11 PDF Set UP window to RGB. The current default setting is CMYK.
I have not been able to find a way to do this.
Thank-you for your assistance.
Brenda

Thank-you. This solved the problem.
I have another questions. I am importing xml feeds into a FM11 using an automated process. After importing, the xml feeds are translated into a formatted FM11 file. When I perform a Save As in order to save the document as Document 11.0 (.fm), I am noticing that the default choice is to save the document as XML. I need to choose Document 11.0 (.fm) before saving. I checked the FrameMaker template and its default setting Save As setting is Document 11.0 (.fm). Is there a way for me to change a setting so that the imported file has a default Save As setting of Document 11.0 (.fm)?

I have my iPhoto set to an external drive yesterday when it was in use the usb disconnected i now have a message saying (your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable) I have tried shutting down and restarting.

I have my iPhoto set to an external drive, when it was in use the usb disconected as i was moving my mac air, when i re-conected a message said (your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable).
I have tried shutting it down and then re opening iPhoto but get the same message.
The reason for the external drive was there was not enough room on my hard drive, I have around 7000 photos on it.
is there a simple fix?
Regards
Dale

These are your options:
1. Restore the iPhoto library from the most recent backup that predates the issue.
          Advantages: Always works, if library damage is causing the problem and the backup is intact.
          Disadvantages: Impossible if you don't have a backup. All changes made since the backup are lost.
2. Repair or rebuild the library. Be sure to back it up first.
          Advantages: May solve the problem with no loss of data.
          Disadvantages: May fail. May take a long time if the library is large.
3. Scavenge the library with a third-party application called "iPhoto Library Manager," which you can find in a web search. From the application's menu bar (not the iPhoto menu bar), select Library ▹ Rebuild.
          Advantages: All images and albums should be preserved.
          Disadvantages: All books, calendars, and slideshows will be lost.

Adobe Reader will not email my .pdf files. Message: "Email has not been set up on this device."

Adobe Reader will not email my .pdf files. Message: "Email has not been set up on this device." I have 4 email accounts that have been set up. When trying to email from Adobe, the email screen does come up, but does not allow me to enter any recipients in the field, and when I try, the email page's fields simply goes blank and disappears, taking me back to the document I am trying to send. After trying repeatedly, I get the message about needing to set up my email. My mother and I have also noticed that when we try to open documents sent in A.R., they may open, or just go blank. Any suggestions or fixes?

Setting up your email is a bit out of the scope of this forum. I'd suggest asking for help in the Apple forums devoted to the iPad. Good luck.

Acrobat Distiller Adobe PDF default setting changes mysteriously

I am using Adobe Acrobat 6.0 Professional on a Windows XP PC. On numerous occasions, my Acrobat Distiller Adobe PDF default setting changes mysteriously from "High Quality" to "PDFX1a". I do not know what is causing the default setting to change automatically. Would you know some possible causes? Thanks for your help.

Hi Led2,
Have you tried repairing the Acrobat installation and checked?
I would also recommend updating to version 9.5.5 and check.

I have CS5 production, and the Sb program, has an analog delay effect. I deleted the default setting, and it disappeared. Is there any way to re-install it?

I have CS5 production, and the Sb program, has an analog delay effect. I deleted the default setting, and it disappeared. Is there any way to re-install it?

Hi Thanks a ton.. so I downloaded Sb from Cs5 download options
and it won't take the serial number, from the box. I bought Cs5
in 2010 in the box from adobe. It lists Sb5 on the back
of the box, and it's in line, and works fine.. paid about 1000 dollars
for the software. But, the downloaded exe file will not accept the
serial number. The same serial number in my account for Cs5
production premium suite. I guess the new cloud community doesn't
respond well to BOX installers or previous customers. Thanks a lot for
your effort but, at 40$ a phone call, I'll suffer through without the default
analog delay option.. everything else runs smooth so.. have a nice
day up there in the cloud.
Best Regards,

Page Set-Up has odd defaults

For last few months, my page set up has been defaulting to Tabloid size at 77% for apps like Safari, Preview, Quark and CS suite. Programs such as word and tect edit have the normal letter size, 100% default.
Any idea what is causing the weird settings? it lets me change it, and then it is no problem.. at least until I restart.
It's just annoying, because I forget on occasion and I just print a page only to find it wasting tabloid paper.
I've installed all recent system updates, and apped my pram. Any ideas would be helpful...

Hi.
Try this: move to the Desktop:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.print.PrintingPrefs.plist
Then go to System Preferences/Print & Fax and in the "Default Paper Size in Page Setup" field select your prefered paper size.
Good Luck.
MacMini G4 1.25GHz 1GB Mac OS X (10.4.9)

The display on my screen has become too big. I've tried adjusting the screen size and the zoom isn't set. Can anyone help?

I have an iMAC 7.1 running OS X 10.6.8.
The display has become too big for the screen. I've looked at the zoom and it is turned off. I've tried adjusting the pixel setting (currently 1920 * 1200) to no effect.
The bar at the top of the screen is elongated, and I can't see the time in the top right hand corner.
This is affecting everything I lookmat, the dock in the bottom doesn't show until I bring the mouse down (hide dock is off).
I have no idea what caused this and I can't fix it.
Does anyone have idea what the problem is and how to fix it?
ANy help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

No wheel, it's a magic mouse.
Tried safe start. No difference.
The dock and the icons are off the bottom of the screen.
I I have finder open and move the cursor to the right to show the time, I lose finder / file /edit from the overhead banner.
Still no closer to solving it.
