PDF Printing in BI 7.0 - Updates

Hi All,
I have a requirement where I need to print the text elements and pictures on web templates to PDF in BI 7.0. I know that this is not supported as of SPS 9. I came to know that SAP might implement this feature in SPS 11 but I am not sure if they have done so. Does anyone have information on this. Alternatively, if there is some way of doing this.
Also it would be helpful if someone can tell me where I can find the release documentation for each service pack where I can find what all bugs/features have been resolved or added in any new service pack.
Thanks,
Pratik

You can Print any images or Text elements included in the export template. The option to add this to the header will only supported with SP 14.
See attached document for release info.

All printing from Firefox (web sites, pop-ups, email) is very light. Docs (Word, iPages, etc.) and pdfs print fine. Problem with update?

Printing from Safari is good. Prints good when sent to another printer in house (not updated to 7.0.1).

PDF Printer is not working. Is there an update?

I have a large document that I'm trying to save individual pages into separate files. I usually do this by using the pdf printer and selecting the pages I want to save as individual files. I recently moved to a new computer and can no longer use the pdf printer. Is there an update I'm missing?

Acrobat 7 is not compatible with anything beyond Windows XP. Beginning with Windows Vista and forward, there were changes in the way drivers work such that the Adobe PDF PostScript print driver instance needed to be modified. The first version of Acrobat that was fully compatible with Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8.x is Acrobat 8.1. If a user installed Acrobat 8 on such a system and then applied the 8.1 update, the Adobe PDF PostScript printer driver instance appears and works.
Alas, Acrobat 8 is no longer licensed by Adobe. Your upgrade path now is to Acrobat DC Pro.

I cannot get an Adobe pdf printer to correctly install in windows 7 64 bit

I purchased Acrobat Pro XI and installed and it went fine. I then installed my copy of Master Collection 5.5, it didn't install Acrobat X, and the printer disappeared. I have tried to repair my XI installation, but it won't do it, and I have tried to uninstall it to reinstall it, but it won't let me do that either. I cannot find the location for a correct Adobepdf.inf file wherte it is supposed to be. I find two in windows/system32/driverstore, but they do not work correctly.

Hi stampguy,
You might want to refer the thread : Re: Manually installing PDF Printer to add printer manually.
Usually repairing Acrobat brings the pdf printer back.
Please try updating to the latest patch 11.0.7 and check.

Print to PDF issues after 11.0.03 Update

Hello,
Installed on our site we have Adobe Reader XI as part of out basic build (ie. every PC has it) and Adobe Acrobat X Pro (as part of the CS5.5 Master Collection) for those users that request it (meaning that we have both versions installed side by side on some PC's). During our most recent update cycle we upgraded Adobe Reader XI to the latest 11.0.03 update which has seemed to upset our PC's that have Acrobat X Pro installed on them.
It appears that the 'Adobe PDF' printer that is installed by Acrobat X Pro no longer works, and trying to print to it gives the following error; "Windows cannot print due to a problem with the current printer setup". To try and see if it would resolve the issue I pushed out the 10.1.7 Acrobat update to a small number of test machines but it hasn't made any difference.
Is this a known issue? Any ideas on how to resolve it or if a fix is coming up?
Thanks, Dave.

Please try following steps:
1. Open Reader.
2. Go to Edit -> Preferences.
3. Select category - Enhanced (Security)
4, Uncheck "Enable Protected Mode at Start up" option.

Adobe PDF Printer not working in Illustrator since 9.3.2 update.

Greetings all,
Since updating Acrobat Pro to 9.3.2 I've not been able to print to PDF from Illustrator using the Adobe PDF Printer (Adobe PDF 9.0 in my printer list).
I've tried several restarts and have also removed the printer and run the Repair Acrobat Installation from the Help menu of Acrobat to reinstall the printer, but problem remains.
I've also tried printing from other programs (namely Thunderbird, Firefox and Photoshop) and the printer has worked fine so I suspect this my be isolated to Illustrator.
No error messages are given and the Illustrator print jobs are listed as Completed in the printer job list but no files are created.
I've got a work-around, printing to Postscript file then converting to PDF in Distiller and it seems to be working fine, but not my ideal solution.
I've checked for updates in Illustrator but none are available.
System details:
OS X 10.5.8 (MacBook Pro 15", around 2.5yrs old)
Adobe Creative Suite CS 3, Acrobat Pro 9.3.2, Illustrator 13.0.2
Any ideas?
Many thanks,
Dave

I've never liked the Save As PDF option in Illustrator. Though the quality is excellent, in my experience it creates bloated PDFs that are often too big to email.
Take for example the file that prompted my original post. If I print to PDF (or in this case use my workaround, creating a PS file, then converting to PDF in Distiller) using my Hi Rez preset, the final PDF is 648K. If I Save As PDF using the same preset, the final file is 5.5Mb! A ridiculous size for a CMYK flyer measuring just 134x70mm.
The reason for the size increase is obvious when the big pdf is opened in Illustrator: all the bits and pieces outside the artboard and on hidden layers are all preserved. In reality, it's just the same as the original Illustrator file seeing as Illustrator's native AI format is pretty much a pdf in all but name only.
Do you know of a way to use the Save As PDF command that eliminates the unwanted material and gets the file size down? That would really make my day!
What I wish for is an Export To PDF command as found in InDesign. That seems to give the best of both worlds.

After Acrobat 9.4.3 update, Adobe PDF printer hangs

I just updated to Adobe 9.4.3 and tried to print to the PDF printer. The process hangs with about 4 bars on the progress bar. Nothing prints and the original document is also locked up. I've had to close Firefox using Task Manager. MS Office documents provide a program recovery box allowing me to End Now. What on earth is going on now?

I repaired the installation and that seems to have fixed the problem. Thank goodness.

Adobe PDF Printer disappearing after 9.4.2 update

A few hours ago I updated Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro to 9.4.2, supposedly coming from 9.4.1.
Since then the Adobe PDF Printer is no longer available among my printer options. That is for all applications: Adobe Acrobat, InDesign, Preview or ArchiCAD 14.
It seems there's a similar issue with the 9.4.2 Windows upgrade (see Acrobat Windows forums). What now? Deinstall Acrobat? Or how do I revert to a older version?!
MacBookPro 2009 (5,3), Mac OS X.6.6.

Ditto...
This is a whole lot of pain unfortunately. I am sitting here lamenting why oh why did I upgrade?? But then it can only improve right? Whats the harm? Surely this will make things better? After all, it didn't really point out that the Acrobat Printer would no longer be available. I will never again do an upgrade on Acrobat as it has done this to me before previously and it was a pain to sort out!
Graphics users need the Adobe Acrobat PS Printer as without this we are not able to set document parametres for print iro commercial printing. Crop marks, page size, reg marks etc. Which can only be accessed via the software once the Acrobat PS Printer output option has been selected.
Simply selecting create Postscript file or PDF.... has none of those attributes and is probably less useful than a chocolate teapot. certainly not a "Pro" - "Professional" option, but rather meant for the masses who have basic Acrobat requirements.
I don't really care to get into the realms as to who did what and whether it was Apples security option or Adobe's upgarde. This outcome is going to upset a lot of graphics users who have paid good money for this package as it was originally intended (for the professional with professional requirements ie PS options) and I for one am annoyed at software companies changing the rules as time goes on. Its the consumer that keeps being inconvenienced all the time.
If memory recalls, we have to totally uninstall and reload. But theres a catch there somewhere if I remember correctly as the uninstaller does not recognize certain files and if you apply the reinstall using the older version of Acrobat, residual files from the newer version create issues. Something like that. Not sure that makes sense to me either. But I remember theres a curve ball there somewhere...
Going to be a long night!
Rule for the future. Don't upgrade.

Adobe PDF Printer gone after updating!?

Good afternoon,
My PDF Printer has literally disappeared after running the automatic update (9.4.4) early this morning.
In fact, the sequence has been like this:
1. Running InDesign so I keep on working on a project.
2. Adobe updater pops up
3. Since I was experimenting random and automatic "pauses" on the PDF printer, I decide it is a good idea to update in the hope this will fix the random pauses.
4. Work nice as always. PDF creation goes fine, however, random pauses did not go away. Doesn't care too much, at the end it takes only a split second to "resume" the printer back and you're done.
5. Out to lunch and back
6. Open same InDesign doc to perform corrections as addressed in client email
7. Go to print dialog box and... voila! PDF printer is gone...
So, at this point, I go to the printer Apple pref pane and surprisingly, there is NO PDF Printer at all.
Try to add one maually. Worthless, there is nothing to be added. I restart the iMac.
Once back in, try the same. Nothing to add.
Navigate through forums and the web and nothing seems to address such behavior.
I decide to reinstall Acrobat from scratch using the CD. That is, to downgrade. Back to normality. Annoyed, indeed,
So, Has anyone experienced such a thing? Any known solution?
What about the random "pauses" or standby?
Thanks in advance!!! ;-)
Juan.

Thanks for posting Steve, I still have to deep-read these links you provided but I feel like the answer might be there...
Yesterday, in the meantime, I was in a hurry so I just decide to re-install Acrobat from scratch wich blew away the issue.
Seems like Acrobat 9.0.0 does well with MacOs 10.6.1
As far as I have reade in the links, I understand that there will be no more PDF Printer in the future, am I right?
And, I was just wondering, if it is so, we wont have to use Distiller anymore?
Guess I have to invest sometime on this.
Thanks!

Adobe PDF Printer missing after update

10.6.3, Acrobat 9.3.2 Pro update broke my PDF printer how to

Hi,
I updated my CS4 Acrobat Pro to 9.3.2 and now my Acrobat Printer errors in the Que when I FIle> Print and select my Adobe PDF Printer.
I deleted the Acrobat Printer from my Print & Fax control panel.
Now I can't figure how to Add my Acrobat printer back.
Is 9.3.2 broken?
I use this all the time, but now it's broke

I just found this article
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/509/cpsid_50981.html
The Adobe PDF Printer is not available or is unusable in Mac OS X Snow Leopard (v10.6). This situation is due to security features in Snow Leopard that disable the Adobe PDF Printer. Adobe Acrobat 9.1 Pro removes the Adobe PDF Printer and adds a new Save As Adobe PDF command. Customers using earlier versions of Adobe Acrobat in Snow Leopard cannot use the Adobe PDF Printer.
SOLUTION
To add and use the Save As Adobe PDF command:
If you are using Acrobat 9 Pro, update to Acrobat 9.1 Pro. The Updater removes the Adobe PDF Printer from the Printer list and adds the Save As Adobe PDF command to the PDF menu.
In the PDF menu, choose Save As Adobe PDF, and follow the onscreen instructions.
To remove the Adobe PDF Printer manually:
If you upgrade from Mac OS X Leopard (v10.5) to Mac OS X Snow Leopard (v10.6), the Adobe PDF Printer is not removed
Choose Apple > System Preferences.
Open the Print & Fax preference panel.
Select the Printing tab to see the printers list.
Select Adobe PDF 9.0.
Click the minus (-) button.
The Save As Adobe PDF command appears in the PDF menu.

Update acrobat 9 standard no pdf printer

I updated Acrobat 9 standard with 947 and the pdf printer vanished. Then update with 954 and still not there.

Tried repair. Didn't work. Discs are at home. I am at work (a store). This happened to me once before and someone in India (where else?) took over the computer remotely and fixed it. I phoned India a while ago but poor connection, could barely understand the accent and got interrupted a lot by customers. I think I will uninstall and reinstall tomorrow. It was an upgrade from 6, so I have to have the serial number from 6 to install. All a big pain. Problem is, I use it a lot for business and I have to get it up and running.

Firefox 19 Beta and the Latest Acobat updates Broke PDF Printer

Details at Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=837369 (Not Responding Error)
In a netshell, in FF 19 beta I can only now create PDF's if I do it from the Print Preview Pane.
In the previous FF update prior to FF 19, PDF printing was sporatic, BUT I could usually print to PDF if after choosing the fiename to print to, and minimizing Firefox.
It appears that the Dialog "Creating Adobe PDF" is being blocked and hidden.

Yea, I know it does appear to be a hit or miss situation and, for me, mostly miss. The "Creating Adobe PDF" window gets really burried.
Sometimes it never, ever completes, but the document does. Other times it will appear just as you Kill Firefox. Somtimes the docuament names are even wrong.
In short, it's really messed up.
There is Firefox doing things, Windows doing things, Distiller doing things and they really all need to be on top, but not on top of each other. I think Firefox is monopolizing the desktop.
It's painfully obvious that the PDF prnter file dialog should come to the front automatically and it doesn;t. It hasn't for a while. Again, Firefox wins.
Notice that when you move some of the Adobe dialogs, the Firefox screen underneath leaves holes.

I am unable to print to the Lightning PDF software (by Avanquest Software) after updating to 6.02. It worked with the previous version of Firefox. Is there a patch or fix for this problem?

This is the error that is received:
Cannot open file "C:\Users\Calandra\AppData\Local\Temp\Ask_a_Question__Firefox_Help.pdf". The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process
Any information that you can provide will be greatly appreciated.

Sorry to say that, but the entire system seems ill-designed.
If I understand correctly, then to add a new Section to a site, you have to subclass SubSection and somewhow integrate that into the system?
I would be my expectation that you only need to subclass SubSection when you tried to introduce a new type of SubSection.
The title & all other natural language Strings should never be hardcoded in Java code, but rather taken from some external storage (Database, XML, flat files, ...).

Unable to print pdf, print command goes to save screen after installing acrobat reader X update

I have Dell Inspiron and brother MFC 7345N printer. Pdf printing was fine until I installed adobe reader security update this morning. Now I cannot print pdf. When I select print command and enter specification, the try to print, I am routed to the save document screen instead of printing any pdf document. I've already restarted computer and printer and it is a new Dell with windows 7. All was working fine until adobe update screwed everything up. what can I do? Can I reset my computer to an earlier time before installing this update?

In the preferences disable the entry 'Print to File'.
