Presets not taking affect when printing via adobe reader

I have discovered that after upgrading to Mavericks, when printing multiple page documents via Adobe Reader, it will not take on my 1-sided printing preset and instead prints 2-sided as per the default setting on the printer driver.
Has anyone come across this?

I dont seem to have the option for printing on both sides on the adobe print screen. In the past it would just use whatever preset you currently had set.
I seldom use Adobe Reader except for completing forms and printing them.  Preview never seems to get those right.  I did do some testing on my Mavericks machine and can confirm that Adobe Reader is ignoring a Preset I created for my EPSON WorkForce 1100.  From the CUPS debugging log it would appear that Adobe Reader is bypassing the Apple print window.  It would not therefore be picking up a Preset.
Wht make and model of printer are you using?  If your prnter uses a PDE to set duplexing, I can imagine that Adobe Reader is not going that deep.  It would look at the PPD and just use whatever is in there.  If you let me know the printer make and model, I may be able to confirm that.  I am not sure that will get you any closer to a sulution.  It may help answer "why".

  • Avery Barcode labels does not align properly when printed from Adobe Reader 11.0.0

    Hi,
    I have barcode labels in a PDF (Version 1.4, Acrobat 5.x). PDF producer is PPAlambic(Distiller). When I try to print the PDF on to Avery 5160 sheet containing 30 labels (10 rows; 3 labels in a row), always the barcodes on the first column goes beyond the left margins and hence does not print the full barcode. PDF size is 8.5" * 11" .I have tried following options in Print dialog box:
    1. Actual Size + Portrait + Letter size
    2. Shrink oversized pages + Portrait + Letter size
    3. Fit + Portrait + Letter size
    None of the above options resolved my issue.
    When I open the same PDF in Adobe Reader 11.0.07, it prints perfectly. Does someone help me understand if this is a known defect in Adobe 11.0.0 and is there any workaround in 11.0.0 itself to adjust the alignment?
    Note: PDF is not editable as it comes from a third party vendor. Please help.

  • Strange artifact in Illustrator PDF, only when printing via Adobe PDF printer

    Hello,
    I've run into a strange issue with an artifact in a PDF generated by Illustrator using the Adobe PDF printer. When I "Save As" a PDF, this artifact does not show. Using the same job options, printing via Adobe PDF creates this artifact. The object is behind the content and it's a semi-transparent box that was manipulated using Free Distort. It's behind everything so shouldn't even show up, but the outline is showing up for some reason. In the past I've had similar issues with artifacts and I changed my Adobe Compatibility to the latest version, and it fixed the issue, but that didn't work this time. Any insight is appreciated. Thanks,

    I had to zoom in to see the faint lines you are talking about and they are there. As a test, try printing to the Adobe PDF printer.

  • Issue with HelveticaNeue text not being included when printing to Adobe PDF?

    I have a document (Word 2010 docx) with a section of HelveticaNeue text on the front page that when printing through Adobe PDF the text does not appear.
    Using Acrobat 9.4.6
    Tried the same document with:
    Win2Pdf - Displays correctly
    Converted to .doc - Displays correctly
    File\Save as PDF - Dispalys correctly
    Any ideas? I can post the document up here but I can't see an option to.

    You can try disabling the “Rely on system fonts only: do not use document fonts” option in printer properties.
    To do the same.In MS Word:
    Goto File -> Print
    Select Adobe PDF as printer.
    Click on "Printer Properties".
    Go to "Adobe PDF Settings" tab.
    Uncheck the “Rely on system fonts only: do not use document fonts”
    Click Ok and try printing the document
    Also update your Acrobat to latest version 9.5.0.

  • One char+ when printing with adobe reader

    hi,
    i've sometimes a strange problem with adobe reader 9.0
    when i print a pdf. the view of the screen is ok,
    but on the paper (happens also on different printers) all printed text (chars and numbers) are increased by 1.
    this meas:
    1 will get 2
    2 will get 3
    A will get B
    a will get b
    etc.
    when i print it again this does not happens.
    does anyone know this problem / have a solution for it?
    regards, johannes

    >Has anyone come across a similar scenario?
    Yeah, it's come up in the forum before. Usually older HP printers with old firmware. If newer firmware is available, I would try that. Otherwise you'll need to use the PCL driver.

  • PDF garbled when printed in Adobe Reader

    Hi
    I've made a document in Pages, then saved it as a Postscript file, and then converted it to a PDF in Preview. When I load it up in Adobe Reader 7, it comes up fine. However, when I print it out, all the text is garbled and the images are seriously messed up.
    The problem could lie with several links in this chain, but I was wondering whether anyone had had similar problems and/or could help.
    Thanks!
    Tim

    Thanks for the reply.
    Well, I managed to print out the PDF file from my flat-mate's PC on a laser printer, so I'm guessing that the problem lies either with the Mac version of Adobe Reader 7 or the HP printer driver. As the printer copes fine with Preview, it might be Reader's fault.
    But this does mean that all hope isn't lost on my project using Pages.
    A few more investigations are needed I think.

  • Missing pages when printing in Adobe Reader 9?

    I'm trying to print a chapter in a PDF document using the Bookmarks Navigational Panel but whenever I print the chapter (i.e. right-click on the chapter and select Print Pages), some pages are skipped and not printed.
    I have tried to re-install Adobe Reader 9, print different chapters in the PDF document, print chapters in other PDF documents, and use different machines-- but I always get the same problem.  It seems that the only workaround is to use the File menu and print specific page numbers.
    Is there a setting or a patch that I can apply to resolve this problem?  I would really like to print chapters from the bookmarks navigational panel and not have to look up the page numbers!

    Thanks ! - and you are most "welcome" "lera1981" ! .........
    With respect to the printing problem with Reader 9.x and your report of your experiments with Reader 9.x and with network-printing then I tend to agree  with your assessment that it would seem as the problem is probably with Reader 9.x's printing capeability .
    Just for the record I would like to report that my experience with network-connected office-class HP printer has been that some printing problems I've seen in the past with Adobe Reader X.xx has been rectified though the change of driver-type and/or driver-generation such as a switch from e.g. a "PCL 6" driver to a "PCL 5" driver .   Last time I experienced a printing problem with a network-connected office-class HP printer I then had to change the driver to their "HP Universal Print Driver".
    While I would say that you are probably right that a change of printer-driver would not make a difference in your case then the point of my writing is that Adobe Reader X.xx or (it's interaction with) Windows seems to be "printer-driver tech-sensitive" understood as that Reader printing tends to respond differently to different "driver tech" !
    Kind Regards

  • Can you disable the "auto open" feature when printing with Adobe Reader x verxion 10.1.6?

    Every time I print a file to PDF, it automatically opens.  Can this be turned off?  I was able to stop this in a previous version of Adobe, but it's been so long, I don't remember how I did it.  I've looked at the settings on my PDF printer as well, but I can't find anything.
    Thanks.

    Hi Sherry,
    You can check the printer preferences for Adobe PDF printer and deselect 'view Adobe PDF result'.
    On windows machine, please go to control panel and then open printer and devices. right click on the Adobe PDF printer and select printer properties/Preferences.
    You must be using Adobe Acrobat to print a document to PDF.
    you cannot print a document to PDF using Adobe Reader.

  • When printing PDF Adobe reader auto selects the last used printer

    Hi
    I have an issue on most of my PC's that when I Print a PDF document the Windows default printer (Printer A) is selected.
    If I choose to print to (Printer B) then the next time I open a PDF document (not the same document than before) it automatically selects (Printer B) even though my Windows default printer is still (Printer A)
    So basically it remembers what printer was used last and automatically prints to this printer.
    This is a big issue as we are printing documents to a plotter. When I then print a normal A4 page it default to the plotter as this was the last used printer. This is wasting so much paper as users just assume it always selects the default printer rather than the last used printer.
    Thanks

    How about changing the printer and printing something, then close Firefox and then restart your operating system? See if that helps ....
    I am curious why you need two separate versions of the same printer installed. Is one used on a USB connection and the other part of a network configuration or wireless? If both are network or wireless, are they using a different IP address on the network they are on?
    The only time I have seen a similar problem with Firefox not wanting to default to the "last used" printer was with a USB inkjet and a network connected laserjet (Brother) - the laserjet would go to "sleep" (energy saving mode) and Firefox would switch to the inkjet every time the laserjet was asleep. That problem was eventually solved when the USB inkjet was replaced by a "network" connected inkjet - still can't understand why that made the difference, though.

  • Selection screen flow logic change not taking affect. Please help!

    Hi
       When I am trying to change the selection scren flow logic I get the following message:
    Selection screen: Report generation makes screen changes ineffective.
    Whatever I am changing is not taking affect in runtime.
    Even though I have activated the changed code for the screen
    What shall I do resolve this?
    Thanks
    Gopal

    You should not be changing the screen flow logic of a standard selection screen 1000.  It will always be regenerated.  In order to modify the standard selection screen, you can do this in the AT SELECTION-SCREEN output event and loop at screen and change the attributes.
    Loop at screen.
      if screen-name = 'P_CHECK'.
        screen-input = '0'.
        modify screen.
      endif.
    endloop.

    HI All,
    I've used the OITM along with the ITM1 and I still receive the "Updated Successful" message but no changes.
    I created another pricelist within SAP B1 Client and updated the prices within that pricelist and it worked just fine.
    I noticed when I queried everything from OPLN that the pricelists that I am trying to import have a different value for "Data Source" which is equal to O, I copied these price lists with Copy Express. The pricelist I created within SAP B1 Client has a Data Source = "I".
    I've included the OITM and ITM file I used which was returning a successful result but no change.
