Printing a PDF in Adobe Reader  v8 does not print watermark

In our office we have PDFs created with Adobe Acrobat Professional version 7 that have a lighten watermark which say "confidential". These PDF documents print fine with Adobe Reader 7.0.8. Our office has now converted to Adobe Reader 8.1.1. When you open the PDF in Adobe Reader v8.1.1 the watermark displays on the screen but when you print the document the document prints without the watermark.
I have checked the knowledge base and can't find this issue. The document has no trouble printing, it just doesn't display the watermark. I have tested Adobe Reader versions 8.0, 8.1.1 and the new version 8.1.2 all display the watermark when you open the Reader, but none of them print the watermark. I have gone back and verify and the watermark does print on Adobe Reader v7.0.8.
If anyone has a similar issue or solution please let me know.
Thanks,
Mary Mendoza

I have the same problem. The watermark does not print out even though I can see it in the print preview. Anybody...?

  • Adobe reader X does not print pdf as displayed.  Fields are missing

    I have received a pdf from a courier company so I can print the label.  However whilst the frame and their logo come out, neither my address or teh recipients address will print.  yet BOTH are visible on teh screen
    This is not a one off problem.  I have had this before from other sources. It is extremely frustrating.
    PLEASE does anyone have any ideas what teh problem might be?

    It is extremely puzzling.
    Using a Kyocera C5020N laser printer I lose the fields
    Using a HP 6940 injet printer, the fields are printed
    Any idea why?

  • Adobe Reader XI does not open files with a command line "path" argument.

    Adobe Reader XI does not open files with a command line "path" argument. Version X and lower all worked fine. I have deleted and reinstalled the program with no success. Is this a bug?

    Hi Daniel,
    What is the make of the printer and is it using PCL or PS driver.?
    Do you have Acrobat installed on this machine as well?
    Please check if 'Print Spooler' service is running on the machine.

  • Adobe Reader XI does not run using Win7 Pro

    Trying to run Adobe Reader XI on a PC running Win7 Pro, but it starts, gives gray screen, then shuts down.  However, I can read pdf docs within Google Chrome.
    I was running Reader version 10 with no problem, went to upgrade to 11, and now no versions work, as I've tried to uninstall and reinstall ver 9,10,11 but none work.  Help!

    I ran the script but does not fix issue.
    When I run Adobe Reader or click on a .pdf file on my drive, the Adobe reader program starts, but gives a gray screen while my hard drive spins, then program closes.
    any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Ken

  • FormCentral PDF export: Drop-Down Menu does not print when no choice is made

    FormCentral PDF export: Drop-Down Menu does not print when no choice is made
    I want to be able to print a blank form for the older clients who cannot use a computer. Form has a few drop-down menus and they only appear on the print out if an option is selected. The form was created on FormCentral. Can anybody help?
    Sorry if i'm a noob, not much experience in creating PDF forms yet.
    Thanks for your help,
    Yon

    Hi Perry
    I am using the trial version of Adobe Acrobat and am using the provided FormCentral software to create the form. I find it very limited, but easier to learn. I am creating a financial needs analyser.
    The section of the drop down menu is a selection from 1-5 (rating of importance for financial goals). I want to print out the questions and the empty boxes for people to fill them in by hand (e.g write 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5). When I leave a blank choice, no box is printed out. I write the questions in formatted text and leave the text/caption for the drop-down as blank, as it is difficult to set the margins correctly so various elements align (I pretty much have to estimate).
    As said before, I may have been missing a massive part of the software, but I haven't used any training - just going by instinct so far.
    Do you know if I can do anything about it?
    Thanks,
    Yon

  • Adobe Reader X does not launch

    Hello,
    Frequently, Adobe Reader X does not start on my Windows 7 computer.
    I have tried the following methods of access:
    Desktop link
    Start > All Program > Adobe Reader X
    Run > C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 10.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe
    Environmental specs:
    Computer: ASUS laptop
    OS: Windows 7, fully updated as of 2/5/12
    RAM: 8 gigs
    Processor: Intel i5, second gen
    Observations:
    Subsequent attempts to launch Adobe Reader X add another "AcroRd.exe *32" image to the "Processes" tab in Windows Task Manager (the count of these images can build up very high).
    These same attempts fail to add an "Adobe Reader X" task in the "Applications" tab of Task Manager.
    The CPU and Memory were only at 25% of their capacities during the last occurrence.
    [Failed] attempts taken to fix problem:
    Repair install
    Complete uninstall / reinstall
    Workaround:
    As of now, the only workaround I have found is to restart my computer. If I am lucky, Adobe Reader X will open after booting. Otherwise, I just have to keep restarting until it works.
    Any help would be great.
    Thanks,
    Sam

    Would it be possible for you to:
    1. Temporarily disable the antivirus program and try launching Reader again.
    2. Try launching Reader by right clicking on the shortcut and selecting "Run as Administrator"
    If all the above steps produce negative results, please check the Event Logs on your machine (Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Evenet Viewer > Windows Logs > Application) and see if you are seeing any error related to Adobe Reader.
    Also, could you let me know if launching Adobe Reader produces any error of sorts, or does it simply not launch inspite of a process being spawned.

  • I installed ADE and when I try to download ebook it tries to open with Adobe reader and does not give option to open with ADE

    I installed ADE and when I try to download ebook it tries to open with Adobe reader and does not give option to open with ADE

    It sounds as if you downloaded Adobe Acrobat Pro. If you did, uninstall it. Then repair Adobe Reader.
    The free Acrobat account has no connection to any of this.

  • Adobe Reader XI, does not recognize installed printer

    After I installed Adobe XI 11.0 on my PC I can no longer print pdf files, I get the error "Before you can perform print-related tasks such as page setup or printing a document, you need to install a printer."  I can print on the installed printer using any other software (i.e. Word, internet explore, etc.).I have a second computer with the same Adobe reader XI and it prints pdf files to printer with no problem. I have disabled Preference "Enable Enhanced Security.  I have uninstalled and re-installed both Adobe and the printer.

  • Adobe Reader 11 could not print with pdfp.exe

    I have updated my Adobe to Adobe Reader 11 and in my application has used pdfp.exe for printing pdf files. But after updation I haven't print pdf files.
    It was possible to print while Adobe reader 10 and below version with pdfp.exe batchfile .Please help

    Hello,
    Thank you for the welcome
    "Preview is not supported" is the error message I get when the Print Dialog box is open and I select "Preview" from it. I thought it might be important to mention that.
    This may be too much information: When I select the print icon from the PDF file, the file does not print, nor do I get an error message. When I choose File > Print in Safari, and then select Print from the open window, a Safari error message pops up that says "The document could not be printed."
    My ignorance is revealed: I do not know how to drag and drop the file directly on the printer's window...
    I appreciate your assistance!

  • Unable to print a pdf in Adobe Reader 9

    Hi! I have created an eBook in Adobe Pro 8 that is 148,300 KB. This .pdf was sent to a client, who is having issues printing it. They are trying to print it using Adobe Reader 9. Some sheets come out blank, while others only print the watermark. The document has been optimized to reduce the size (file is 131,744 after being optimized), but the issue still persists. Printing has been attempted in smaller portions, because this is such a large document, but htat does not resolve the issue. I have to note that, I have not had any issues printing with Adobe Pro 8. Are there any known issues when printing a document this large from Adobe Reader? If so, what needs to be done to correct this?
    Thanks in advance for any insight you may offer!

    Windows 7 Professional is our OS...I can print from my machine but it's a different printer.  I'll try un and reinstalling her printer driver. 
    The error message just says "This document cannot be printed" or something generic like that.
    Thanks for your help!

  • Adobe Reader XI will not print PDFs. Can you please help

    Why can't Reader XI print PDF pages?

    Hello everyone:
    I have been totally frustrated as well and had to keep uninstalling the update and go back to my previous version of Adobe Reader 10.1.4.38.  Now I did what Frank above said and it finally allowed me to print PDFs again in the 11.0.09 version!  You may need to do some of the other changes but the below changed everything for me!!!!!
    'View documents in PDF/A mode' to 'Never' Preferences .
