Printing a pdf document

Hi,
I want to print a PDF document from SAP. I am able to suck the document into memory but I have no way to convert it to something that is printable. Though SAP offers ways to convert from a sap script / smart form to a PDF there doesnt seem to be a reverse process. Does anyone know of a way, without using system commands, to print this document?
thanks,
Roger

Why can't I print a PDF document?

when trying to print a PDF document I get the error message " unable to print document". Sometimes also includes "No pages are selected''.
I'm using an HP laptop and OS Windows 7.
I have tried selecting all document,and printing it as image, I have checked that there are no security locks on the document. I have been through the forum several times searching for answers and still I cannot print a PDF.
Advice please on what other steps I can take.

Pat Willener,
Many thanks for the helpful suggestions. . Sean Mitchell's suggestion of
repairing Adobe reader via the help menu did the trick. I have been able to
print several PDF documents after following his suggestion.
Very many thanks for the assistance

Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro do not open when printing a pdf document. Can anyone help?

Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro do not open when printing a pdf document, instead I open it with Adobe Reader X to be able to print.
Can anyone help?

Hi Edna,
It sounds like Adobe Reader X is your default PDF file handler. Launch Adobe Reader X. Choose Edit > Preferences > General. Click the 'Select Default PDF Handler' button at the bottom and choose Acrobat 9 from the drop-down menu. Click Apply, then OK.
Restart your computer. Acrobat 9 should now be your default PDF file handler again.

Printing a pdf document created in Acrobat Pro 9.0

Solved the problem of printing a pdf document created using Acrobat Pro 9.0 with SL - tried many different things form adobe etc and by accident discovered while in Acrobat you have to select ADVANCED in Print then click onto SAVE AS IMAGE in next box and then OK and all prints as it should. Just thought others may want to know this if they have had problems 1

I'm reviewing your post and while I see a fix, I can't locate the problem that you may have originally posted. Since I'm having issues, I'm hoping your's were the same.
Sometimes when I print an Adobe Acrobat 9.0 document, most of the printed word fail to print out (although they are in the PDF document). Almost all graphical elements print and the occasional line of text--but most text is missing. Was ti your issue?
Thanks.

Printing a PDF document to Adobe PDF rotates 90degrees clockwise

When I print a PDF document (scanned) to the Adobe PDF printer the resulting document is rotated 90 degrees clockwise. Regardless what settings are in Pro or the Adobe PDF writer.
How do I prevent Acrobat Pro or Adobe PDF from rotating documents?
(CS6 / Windows 10 / Lenovo X1 Carbon)

Settings that produce a rotated document:

Acrobat X and XI will not print many pdf documents.

Acrobat X and XI will not print many pdf documents. When I click Print, the document fades and I get a dialog box that says "Adobe Acrobat has Stopped Working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." I was experiencing this with Acrobat X so I upgraded to XI, but the problem is exactly the same. I am using Windows 7 Professional operating system.

Thank you for your reply. I have several printers available on our network,
the program doesn't even go as far as allowing me to select a printer. I am
trying to print to an HP 1320n or a LANIER MP C5502 PCL 6. I have changed
the default printer, but the result is still the same. In does the same
thing with Adobe (Standard XI) PDF set as the default printer.

Unable to print a pdf document

I have an HP Officejet 4315 All-in-One Printer and have been unable to print an pdf document. I have Adobe X installed.
How can I get the print to work on pdf documents?

How are you trying to print to pdf?
Don't go via PostScript or Acrobat Distiller, which are old deprecated technology.
You use:
Menu > File > Print > PDF (button bottom left) > Save as PDF…

How can I print a PDF document?

How can I print a PDF document?

That states that the PDF touch app doesnt support printing which is a technically true as it doesnt have a button/option to print from the app but doing a crtl-p (this is on a full PC version of win8 not RT) brings up the print dialogue and its prints fine.

How can I print a PDF document in OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion?

I just upgraded to OSX 10.6.3 and now 10.8 Mountain Lion. I am extremely disappointed that I can no longer print (to my printer) ANY PDF documents either through Adobe or straight from a website. Is there a way to deactivate the security feature that is blocking this? I also own the newest version of Parallels (desktop 7) and cannot print through Windows either. It's beyond annoying. Thank you!
Matt

I can print (such as e-mails, driving directions, etc), but nothing that is related to Adobe or PDF. I have a Dell 1710 printer that is connected to my airport extreme wirelessly. The printer has always worked on my I-mac since I bought it in 2007. It stopped printing PDFs ont he Mac when Adobe was upgraded about a year ago. I was then able to print through Adobe in Parallels/Windows. Since the new OSX 10.6 and 10.8 came out, nothing prints through Adobe in either place. I hope that helps.

Printing a PDF document using Java 1.4 Printing API

Hi,
When I tried to print a PDF document using JAVA 1.4 Printing API, I got the following exception.
Exception in thread "main" sun.print.PrintJobFlavorException: invalid flavor
at sun.print.Win32PrintJob.print(Win32PrintJob.java:290)
at Printing.main(Printing.java:40)
I am able to print the same PDF document using Acrobat reader.
Is PDF format not supported in JAVA 1.4 printing API? or is something wrong in my code?
here is the sample JAVA program that I was using
import javax.print.*;
import javax.print.attribute.*;
import java.io.*;
public class Printing {
public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception {
String filename = args[0];
PrintRequestAttributeSet pras =
new HashPrintRequestAttributeSet();
DocFlavor flavor = DocFlavor.INPUT_STREAM.PDF;
PrintService defaultService =
PrintServiceLookup.lookupDefaultPrintService();
DocPrintJob job = defaultService.createPrintJob();
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(filename);
DocAttributeSet das = new HashDocAttributeSet();
Doc doc = new SimpleDoc(fis, flavor, das);
job.print(doc, pras);
Thread.sleep(10000);
System.exit(0);
Thank you

Here's a pure Java solution (that works!):
http://www.mycgiserver.com/~zhouwu/pdf/readme.html
The caveats are:
- prints only to the default printer
- requires a properties file located in the home directory
my workaround for the last:
     * Print a PDF file to the default printer (might consume lots of memory!).
     * <p>
     * <b>Required:</b>
     * <ul>
     * <li>a file "acrobat.properties" needs to be in the working directory. The content is:

"AcroRd32.exe /t" print a PDF document ( print only, no need to open )

I'm using the following command to print a PDF document:
"D:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 8.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" /t "D:\R104-20071025165656.pdf" "\\192.168.0.4\hp" "hp LaserJet 1000" "\\192.168.0.4\hp"
Now it works fine! But I have more request:
I want a command that only send the file to printer and no need to open the PDF file on local system.
So anybody can help me?
Thanks in advance!

Dear Pedja,
My program is a desktop application, no a web application. It's not the same as you. And hope the following codes can help you :)
private void exportReportToPrinter(JasperPrint jasperPrint,int copyNum, String printerName, MediaSizeName mediaSizeName) throws Exception
// create the print service exporter so that we can print to a named
// printer
JRPrintServiceExporter exporter = new JRPrintServiceExporter();
// set the report to print
exporter.setParameter(JRPrintServiceExporterParameter.JASPER_PRINT, jasperPrint);
// tell the exporter to print 1 copy on A4 paper
PrintRequestAttributeSet aset = new HashPrintRequestAttributeSet();
aset.add(new Copies(copyNum));
aset.add(mediaSizeName);
exporter.setParameter(JRPrintServiceExporterParameter.PRINT_REQUEST_ATTRIBUTE_SET, aset);
// let the exporter know which printer we want to print on
PrintServiceAttributeSet serviceAttributeSet = new HashPrintServiceAttributeSet();
serviceAttributeSet.add(new PrinterName(printerName, null));
exporter.setParameter(JRPrintServiceExporterParameter.PRINT_SERVICE_ATTRIBUTE_SET, serviceAttributeSet);
// print it
exporter.exportReport();

I can't print a PDF document anymore

I can't print a PDF document anymore
how can i correct the problem?

What is your operating system? What is your Adobe Reader version? Only one document, or any? Local or online documents? If online, in what browser?
Finally, what exactly means "can't"?

How do I view/print a pdf document in an email? I'm not getting the little hand icon.

How do I view/print a pdf document in an email? I'm not getting the little hand icon.

Ah, yes, I'm using Adobe Reader! That makes sense. Thanks so much for your reply. At the moment, I scan Word documents into my computer and they're automatically converted to PDFs. If I had Adobe Acrobat on my computer, and scanned in documents, would they open in Reader automatically or could I open them in Acrobat and therefore add password protection?

How to print a PDF document from Labview?

I am looking to create a paper copy of a PDF document. Note: I do NOT want to create a PDF document.
In other words I want to print a PDF document from Lab View or Visual Basic or C#. The application is used in a production environment so I want a clean solution.
The requirements are:
1) Be able to specify the output printer.
2) Set the quantity to print.
3) Specify the file to print.
4) Function returns when printing is complete
5) Silent operation, that means no popup boxes.
Any help is appreciated.

you might be able to use system exec to print files.
