Print As Attachment in Outlook using Reader 8

We just upgraded to Reader 8.1.2. Now, when we are in Outlook and want to print an email with a .pdf attachment, file association doesn't appear to work. We first get a message box asking us for the appropriate program to open the .pdf. If you click Reader 8, it will open the document in Reader, but will not print. We checked the file associations on the server and all .pdf files are set to open with Reader 8. When we had Reader 7 and went to print an email with an attachment, Reader 7 would open and immediately print the attachment.
Does anyone know if this is a bug with Reader 8.1.2 or if there is a fix for it?
Thanks

The problem?  It's actually pretty simple: Microsoft implemented their mail processing in a way that has greatly assisted folks using Microsoft products and Microsoft platforms, and established an "export" mechanism when communicating via mail in heterogeneous computing environments.  Microsoft tools including Microsoft Exchange Server and their systems running Microsoft Windows are a good and very capable mail environment system, with great scale and very well integrated mail, calendar and related processing, and some exceedingly useful tools including SharePoint that have no real analog with OS X, Unix or Linux systems.   But these tools don't necessarily interoperate entirely nicely in heterogeneous environments; with non-Microsoft tools and platforms.
The winmail.dat mechanism is a part of the whole Microsoft infrastructure, and particularly when the information is being "exported" out from the Microsoft environment, and into a non-Windows and non-Exchange environment.  The determinate here involves the settings chosen by the various senders.  (Possibly also by the defaults chosen by the administrator of the Exchange Server(s) involved, but I haven't checked that.)
Here's the Microsoft knowledge base article that describes the specificss of the winmail.dat file. 
There are tools around to read the TNEF-format winmail.dat files on OS X and other platforms, including TNEF's enough for OS X, and likely various other tools.   Or get your senders to reconfigure their settings for you when they're sending messages to you, as described in the Microsoft KB article.

  • PDF not attaching to Outlook using Adobe Reader

    When clicking the Mail icon on the tool bar in adobe reader to attach the PDF to an email, adobe reader freezes and the document does not attach. It does work if Outlook 2013 is closed but if Outlook 2013 is open adobe reader just freezes for a minute with nothing happening. I tried turning off protected mode on startup and disabling all outlook addins. This problem started a couple of weeks ago, I tried a system restore but no joy.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    I found the fix! It was a problem with sendmail.api, I fixed it by doing the following:-
    Repair the SendMail plugin:
    Browse to "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader\plug_ins" and rename SendMail.API to OLD_ SendMail.API.
    Then from Add/Remove programs run a Reader repair.

  • Programmaticaly attachement with outlook using java

    Hi All,
    I used this code                   Runtime.getRuntime().exec(

    First thing, it's not only for Outlook or windows. I need to check which email application is being using
    like outlook,Thunderbird,.
    The file is attached programmatic to the corresponding mail application. Those files are
    getting from server side (databases).
    In jsp,
    <a href="mailto:?subject=Pictures from PhotoAlbum&cc= &body=This is the body text&attachment="c:\test.txt'">Email</a><br>{code}
    mailto function works only in client side as of my knowledge. We can't use attachment.
    Give me any suggestions.

  • Unable to print multiple copies of PDF using reader X with new Windows 7 computer

    I recently upgraded to a new Windows 7 computer.  Now when I try to print a PDF I can only print one copy.  I have checked that my Mopier Mode is enabled and have tried everything I can think of.  Why could I print multiple copies with Windows XP but can't with Windows 7?

    How does that manifest itself:
    you cannot change the number of copies on the Print panel?

  • Can´t open pdf attachment in Outlook 2010 after inst. Reader X

    Hi!
    Today I updated Reader from 9 to 10.1.2 - I did not face any problems with the installation.
    But now I can not open any pdf attachment in Outlook 2010 (Reader opens and closes immediately) if Reader X is not running.
    When the Reader is allready running I can open the files without problems.
    When I save the file on my desctop I can also open it - also if reader is not allready running.
    I un- and reinstalled the reader fiew times, also tried the repair tool - nothing helped.
    I receive a lot of pdf Files - any help would be great.

    Did you try this?  It worked for me.

    If asked if sure, click Yes and then Ok.
    Now close Adobe Reader X and try opening the PDF again.

  • Cannot print .pdf attachments in Outlook 2010 on local usb printer using the lastest Adobe Reader

    We can't print pdf attachments from Outlook 2010 on a users local printer via usb with the latest Adobe Reader but it can print to a network copier. We can print from the local printer emails, webpages, regular pdf's on the hard drive.
    Please advise and thanks.

    What is the behavior that you are seeing? Are you getting some error or is it simply failing to print with Reader 10.1.2.

    Also, please let me know that if a simple Right Click > Print operation is working, then what exactly is the operation that is failing.

    I had a similiar problem, with my multiple devices.  I open iTunes and when all devices were connected I went to the info section on each device.  Under info I checked the sync calandars. Under that I click all calanders. I then did the apply in low right. I then did the sync function and it fixed it for me.  You have to do this for each device.
    I also checked the device (ipad,Iphone) themselves and change the calander selection to NO Catagory.  Hope this helps.

    I am using reader 11.0.10.32 in Win7 Professional 64 bit.  I am unable to print from Reader.  After selecting print all pages, the progress bar goes through the proper page count. After that a pop up window appears with the message: The document could not be printed.  After pressing the OK button that pop up closes and the next pop up window appears with the message: There were no pages selected to print.  After pressing the OK button, the pop up closes and the pdf document is still visible in Reader.
    I can print from other programs to that printer.  I can print from Reader to other printers.
    I was able to print to all printers before.  I uninstalled Reader and reinstalled it from the Adobe web site.
    Any suggestions to make it print?

    Hi Test Screen Name and others,
         I was using a ShellExecute with "print" as the verb but, I read that the verb is not available anymore with Reader X (for security reason).
       I'd than tried DDE with the server name "acroviewA10" and topic "control" but, it seems not working (I cannot connect to the Reader X application anymore).
         Is there a solution to do a silent print with Reader X ?

  • Printing multiple attachments from outlook 2003 fails

    I have huge problems printing pdf attachments through outlook, when i try i either dont print them all or it pops up with an error saying.
    file could not be found, or No printer installed, or printer have to be setup to allow printing.
    ofc a printer is installed and setup, i have tried printing on HP 9000, 9040, 4730, 4600, with both PCL6 and PS drivers.
    I have tried printing to a file, and printing directly to the printer.
    I have installed a PC with the bare minimum, XP SP2, outlook and adobe 7 and 8, same issue.
    the pdfs im trying to print are microsoft proof of sales documents, which we receive several of each day, with 5-20 pdf attachments in each, each attachment is between 400 and 800 kb in size.
    the problem is also present in outlook 2007.
    I'm sure there are several things i have tried and forgotten in this plea for help, but im really hoping someone out there have one or more ideas.
    Thanks in advance.

    I am not very skilled in Adobe by any means, but I was having the same issue.  When I did the Control P to print, I went into Print Options, then into Properties.  Under Adobe PDF settings, I unchecked the box that said "Rely on system fonts only; do not use document fonts." and that worked for me.
    Hope it helps.

  • Can you print from an iPad 2 using 3G in a home with no computer or wifi by using an iPhone 5 hot spot connection if the printer has been set up in another place with live wifi? I know this question is loaded but my dad lives in a rural area

    Can you print from an iPad 2 using 3G in a home with no other computer or wifi by using an iPhone 5 hot spot connection if the printer has been set up in another place with live wifi? I know this question is loaded but my dad lives in a rural area and is wanting a printer to use occasionally. He doesn't want to deal with a computer and I keep his iPad updated for him at my home.  Please shed some light on this for us PLEASE. Thanks

    In that case, it should be possible. I haven't tried this directly, but I believe it should work.
    You'll need to get an actual AirPrint compatible Printer.
    Check here for a list of Printers you can choose from.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
    Once you have the compatible printer, using the Hotspot feature from the iPhone he'll have to create the Wifi bubble form the iPhone, and connect the Printer to that Wifi network.
    Then connect the iPad to that same Wifi network provided by the iPhone. When all that is done, the printer should appear in any of the Apps that can Print under the Action Arrow button.
    For instance in email, pressing the action arrow should show a Print option. In there the printer should appear.
    Alternatively you can simply buy a wireless router and setup the network through there even if there is no internet attached.  Connect the wireless printer to the router network, and connect the iPad or iPhone to that same wifi network to print.

  • How can i print an email without printing the attachment?

    I just got my new macbook pro retina display.  I am using Mac mail and want to know how I can print an email without printing the attachement.  Any suggestions and solutions would be appreciated.

    Thank you for your suggestion.  But when I receive an email that has an attachment (shown by paperclip symbol) The email opens and shows the attachment(jpg picture) at the end of the email so when I go to print - the email pops up with the picture already opened inside the body of the email.  Can not figure out why this happens in mac mail.  when i used outlook in windows only email would show.  in order to see attachment you had to click on paperclip and only then would the attachment (picture apprear).
    Any other suggestions that I may could try would be appreciated. Thank you!  Gabriela

  • Error message when opening pdf attachment in Outlook 2003

    I have several computers in my network running different version of Adobe Acrobat...Adobe 6.0 standard, Adobe 7.0 standard, Adobe 8.0 standard and pro, and Adobe 9.0 standard and pro. The problem I am having with a few of my end users is that when they receive an e-mail in Outlook 2003 with a pdf attachment from certain companies that we deal with in the insurance industry, they receive an error message saying they can not open the file...
    "Can't create file:XXXXXXXX.pdf. Right click on the folder you want to create the file in, and then click Properties on the shortcut menu to check permission for the folder."
    The strange part about this is they can forward the e-mail to another end user that may or may not be using the same version of Adobe as them, but the other end user has no problem opening and viewing the pdf attachment (also, if the company sending the e-mail sends the same e-mail to another end user who has no issues, they can open it with just fine) Now here is where it gets really strange... if the end user that can view the file saves the file to their hard drive, then sends it back as the same attachment in an e-mail back to the end user that could not open the file originally, now that end user can open and view the pdf attachment. I have three end users that this affecting and they each have a different version of Adobe Acrobat with all of the latest updates. I am stumped and searches so far have revealed no solutions...
    Any ideas?

    The can only open it on their machine if they save the pdf attachment after renaming it. All computers on the network have the latest Outlook 2003 updates, so it puzzles me that only three end users with the same version of Outlook 2003, with the same updates, are not able to view the attachment from Outlook, but the other users can. Also, why do those three end users have to rename the file if the save it to the their computer to be able to view it, but no one else has to. And, it is not every pdf attachment either, just some from certain people that send them an e-mail. Really puzzling issue that I need to get resolved...

  • When I open an email's attachment from Outlook, the email's attachment is no longer avail to open on my iPad and iPhone

    When opening an email's attachment in Outlook 2007, that email's attachment is no longer available to view on my iPhone and iPad.
    How do I correct this to keep the attachment available on iPad and iPhone, when the email's attachment is initially opened from Microsoft Outlook please??

    If you're talking about an old iCloud ID, you have to delete the old account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.
