Printing Acrobat PDF in Leopard printer menu?

Hi all,
Is it at all possible to use the Acrobat printer to print out PDF´s in Leopard from the printer menu. It went out when Leopard came in and I havent seen a solution yet.
Any ideas?

If you mean having Acrobat as a printer choice, on top of the built-in OS X ability to save as PDF, then maybe you need to repair your Acrobat installation. Open Acrobat and choose Help > Repair Acrobat Installation. Then tick the box that says Adobe PDF Printer. That should add it back.
This has nothing to do with the Leopard upgrade except that probably the PDF printer didn't come along when you migrated applications.

Problem printing Acrobat.pdf files get a VMerror error. Upgraded to Mac OS X10.10 Yosemite

I really need to be able to print Acrobat.pdf files and printer window indicates pdf is being sent to the printer. Printed a test page and Word documents but not Acrobat.pdf.
Test page indicated I have Driver Name: HP338_6PPD and Driver Version: 19.8.. I have had this printer for over 10 years and it has performed very well. Other than I can't scan anymore it has never failed to print a document. Does Adobe need to address this problem?

Welcome back to the community, @JAJ70
I read about the "VMerror" error you are seeing when attempting to print PDF files. Although this may be an issue with Adobe, I do have some links and suggestions for you to look into.
I would suggest a power reset:
Press the Power button to turn on the product.
With the product turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the product.
Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
Wait at least 15 seconds.
Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the product.
If the product does not turn on by itself, press the Power button to turn it on.
I am unsure of which printer you have however, check for a firmware update:

When I print a PDF it always prints as a booklet, how can I print 1 full page?

When I print a PDF it always prints as a booklet, how do I print a full page?

In the Print dialog box you should be able to indicate which page you want to print and that page will print. For instance, if you are viewing page 4, in the Print dialog, select "current page" and page 4 prints. This won't work if your page is actually a 2-page spread. What size is the booklet?

When i print a pdf the imige print reversed like a negative. How can i correct this?

when i print a pdf the image print reversed like a negative. How can i correct this?

Sometimes if a .pdf is smaller than actual 8 1/2 x 11 or bigger, you'll either get way too much of the image and it's cut off, or the image is too small. You should also try to do this in the print driver window: Properties -> Advanced -> Image Options -> Disable "PostScript pass-through"

Setting Printer Acrobat XI Default to print all PDF files last page first

Hello,
I have just recently upgraded to Mavericks and also have the Creative Cloud using Acrobat XI Pro. In using Reader 9, whenever I printed a PDF the output would print in reverse order, so all I would have to do is take it from the printer and hand it off; it would be in the correct order. How do I setup Acrobat XI Pro to accomplish the same settings (print in reverse order) on not only 1 PDF, but all PDF files? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
John

Can a print preset be created that would work for all PDF files and not just the one opened? Just trying to find out since no one has answered my question in 2 days and Tech Support wasn't much help.
Thanks,
John

Security set to allow high resolution printing but pdf won't print

We create a large number of pdf files to send out to
clients, etc. We have been using security on all pdf's being sent out, however, some clients are having issues printing these pdf files even though our security settings are set to allow high resolution printing. Any one have any ideas why? I cannot duplicate the issue for whatever reason, the files still print for me.

I discover I am suddenly having a similar problem as well.
I have recently migrated to a new Intel iMac/Leopard, I'm on a network and trying to print to a Tektronix/Xerox 7700 laser printer. I can print anything other kind of document on that printer as long as it is not a PDF.
When I open the printer window it says the job has been stopped. I choose the job and tell it to "resume" at which point the printer pauses itself. Once it flashed a window that said Operation Not Possible - client-error-something-something and then closed before I could see what the last two words were.
I am currently using Adobe Reader 6.0. I would love to be able to try to print out of 7.0 but there seem to be continual download problems in the form of constant connection failures. I also have Acrobat 6.0 STD - can't print out of either one.

How can I/Is it possible to silently print a PDF with specific print settings and obtaining the resulting job id (in windows at least)?

Greetings,
I have a specific application for Windows I'm developing where I need to silently print a PDF to a real printer. The trick is I need to set specific printing preferences ... such as color/monochrome, # of copies, page size / source tray, etc. The printer is always set to spool documents, and it is key that I know the job id (even if its already done printing) of the resulting print job.
With windows APIs mixed in, I would imagine something like ...
OpenPrinter(printername)
StartDocPrinter(...)
-----> some SDK call to print the document based on the handles I pass it...or perhaps one page at a time after I call StartPagePrinter()
EndDocPrinter(...)
ClosePrinter()
I've been searching for something for days that would give me this sort of control, but I've been finding the documentation very difficult to find on silently printing a PDF through any means other than a command line which doesn't appear to give me the information or control I need.
Is this possible with the Adobe SDK?
I've seen other posts accomplish this by changing the printing defaults for the printer, and then sending the job silently with a commandline. This has two problems for me: 1) I still don't know the Job ID of the print job, and 2) I can't rely on the idea that other unrelated print jobs will not be sent while I'm processing the PDF ... making it difficult to use defaults as a means of controlling the settings without causing a lot of side effects.
Even just a point in the right direction would be a huge help for how I could accomplish this.
Thanks a lot,
Wayne

You cannot uninstall Kit Kat from your phone. BTW what kind of phone do you have??

I can't print a pdf, don't print the black letters, there is a lot of buttons like space navy ship of NASA

1.- You gringos, NOT ALL THE WORLD IS THE GARBAGE USA, we need forums in various language, out side, there is a WORLD WITH MANY OTHER COUNTRIES, THAT SPEAK A LOT OF DIFERENT LANGUAGES.
2.- Why I can't find a simple thing: PRINT IN WHITE AND BLACK... Is that a great thing to ask?
We don't want a lot of options to print, we don't want print in colors, grays, combinations, etc... WE ONLY WANT ONE BUTTON: "PRINT"
3.- It's very dificult to find the correcto combination, because you offer a lot of buttons and options...
4.- I have 4 hours trying to print a simple pdf document... and I can't because NO PRINT THE BLACK LETTERS...
5.- How can I to do, for a simple print of a document pdf.
6.- You turned the printing in a trip to the moon, with a lot of buttons, options, combinations... ALL IN ENGLISH, IS VERY INSANE...
7.- I'm very angry... now I understand to OSAMA BIN LADEN... I DON'T SUPORT THEY, BUT I WISH YOU GRINGOS WILL CHANGE YOUR BRAIN.

I get the answer, I found the solution:
1.- At first time, I offer my apologyzes for my offensive words against americans, and people of adobe reader.
You are not gringos, You are Americans.
USA is not Garbage, is a great country.
I found a page of adobe in Spanish, and yes, there is in many other languages pages of adobe reader.
My PDF is in spanish, thanks american people for create invents, and pages in many languages.
I'm really sorry for september 11, it was unfair, inhuman, a tragedy. Never again the war, we love peace.
2.- I was very angry, because I lost money, because I can't finish my work, because I can't print the PDF document.
3.- The solution was:
Step 1: down the most recent version of adobe reader.
Step 2: Choose the option "advanced", and then choose the option: "print like an image".
YA encontré la solución...
Paso 1.-
actualizar a la versión más reciente de adobe reader.
descargarla, abrirla, e instalarla
Paso 2.- Volver a abrir el documento PDF, pero con la nueva versión de adobe reader.
Paso 3.- Ir a imprimir, pero antes de darle aceptar, ir al cuadro que dice: "AVANZADA"
Paso 4.- Entrar a avanzada, y marcar la casilla que dice "imprimir como imagen". y darle aceptar.
Paso 5.- presionar el botón de imprimir y listo.
Muchas gracias por su apoyo.
PROBLEMA SOLUCIONADO.
El asunto, era porque no eran letras de caracteres, sino que eran una foto o imagen de letras.
por eso era necesario escoger la casilla de imprimir como imagen, además de actualizar al nuevo adobe reader.

AP Check Print: Same PDF O/P prints differently from Different Printers

hi ,
I am working on AP Check Printing. We are upgrading our system from 11i to R12.1.3.
I have developed the Check Template for a US Check, the PDF output generated from the "Format Payments Instructions" look good and prints perfectly onto one printer.
But when i print the same o/p to a different printer, it is cutting off all the edges.
I have verified that both the Printers use Universal Pasta Configuration & the same past_pdf.cfg file.
It has "Prepocess = pdftops - paper match {outfile} {infile}" as the command to convert PDF output file into a PS (Post Script).
I am able to reproduce the problem by printing the PS file from unix using the command "lp - d <printername> <PS File Name>".
Please advice ASAP, this is a BLOCKER issue for us and need to solve this at the earliest.
Thanks in Advance.
VIJAY

Hi,
Thanks a bunch for your quick response.
In order to check the driver, i have seen in the following areas.
System Admin => Install => Printers => Register /Type /Style / DRIVER.
The driver postion is actually depending on the print style like "PDF Publisher" or "Portrait For Logo" etc.
Is this the place you want me to check ? or is there anything else i am missing ?
Thanks,
Vijay

Cannot print my pdf's the printer say its the wrong page size? Powerpoint Word Excel are all fine

Every time I try to print a pdf my printer now says No paper-Custom Size. It used to work fine and other programs work fine.

I had this problem. The error message said that this document cannot be printed and after clikcking ok, another message said that the page wasn't selected or something like that. I went to Programs and Features in Vista Control Panel and deleted Adobe Reader 9. Then I rebooted and went to adobe.com and installed the 9.1 version. Now, I can print my documents. I hope this helps you!

Auto printing a PDF document without Print Dialog, in a web application

Hello,
We are developing a web application (target browsers: IE and Firefox). One of the requirement is to open a PDF document and print it without any user intervention(no print dialogs). Is there a way to achieve this? Please let me know.
Thanks,
Prasanth

Yes, if you install a special application folder level script with a trusted function on the end user's client computer. Adobe has made this feature only available under very specific conditions to prevent atomically printing without the end users knowledge of the print action or allowing it by adding a the special folder level file.

Problems printing Acrobat documents on shared printer

I have a MacBook Pro and a Mac Pro. I also have an Epson 1400 printer.
When I print any Acrobat document using the printer hooked up directly to my MacBook, it prints perfectly.
When I print the same Acrobat document using the printer hooked up directly to the Mac Pro, it prints perfectly.
However, when I hook the printer to the Mac Pro and enable printer sharing, and then print the same document from the MacBook Pro using the shared printer via the network, the Acrobat document is reduced in size by around 50%. I have checked every possible setting and just can't find why this is happening.
Thanks in advance for any help!

The problem occurs not only through Acrobat. The prints have the correct size through the Mac only when the printer is directly connected via USB on the Macs but reduced size through the network. The problem occurs in any printer model on the network.
I do not know how to solve this problem but curiously does not occur with Windows computers with Bonjour that prints to the printers connected to Macs.
When Apple will fix this?

Printer not selectable from drop down when printing any pdf file. Printer is available when printing any other file format.

Client is running Adobe Acrobat X. When trying to print their Ricoh printer can not be seen in the drop down menu. The Printer was added locally and the printer can print any other file format.

Your ps file should be good, the problem likely resides elswehere. Maybe in your acrobat install, distillers settings. what error did distiller give?
Mine ran good and got a multi page document, here is a screenshot to help you troubleshoot.
On mac go to system preferences / print and fax / and change your default printer if you have another option. I know sounds like this should not help, but there are problems like Illustrator for example not making .pdfs if you do not have a printer chosen or an old or corrupt .ppd assigned.

Printing to pdf file - only prints in thumbnail size

Using Adobe Reader ver 10 and it will only create pdf (print) in thumbnail size. How can it be configured to create in full size 81/2 x 11? Using Scansoft Create to create pdf files from word 2007. Could the the scansoft printer driver be the problem. Using PDF CREATE ver 5. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

You need to ask in a ScanSoft forum. This is not an Adobe product and as already mentioned, Reader can not create a PDF. Also be aware this is the Acrobat forum, not the Reader forum.

Printing a Word 2013 file to a PDF, which prints the PDF, but when printing the gereated PDF to a laser printer an error occurs: Error: invalidfont Offending Command: show Stack: ( )

I was wondering if any else has had an problem with error codes printing PDF that has been generated from Word 2013 to Acrobat Xi Pro. I have converted fonts from local install to common fonts - Arial, and the same error occurs.
Help!

Thank you Bill,
you maybe right, there seems to be a localised issue as the PDF that has been created from Word 2013 can be printed, on the same printer I am using, by other members on the server with different versions of PDF.
Still stuck though.
