Printing from OS 10.6.8 using Adobe Acrobat 8.1 - won't print from appl

Using Apple OS 10.6.8, if I attempt to print a PDF from within Acrobat 8.1, I always get an error message and it just will not print unless I try to print the file as an "image" type file. If, however, I DRAG the icon for the file on to the printer icon in the dock, I am able to print the file just fine. WHAT IS UP WITH THIS and is there a patch or fix?

Is there an easy way to move photos from iPhone 5 to my Mini?
Could you just email the photos to yourself and from the mini, receive then as attachments. This is roughly similar to the network process you would be using with iCloud, but with an extra step.

I've created a PDF form using Adobe acrobat. I created the forms from a PDF that I made using pages

I've created a PDF form using Adobe acrobat. I created the forms from a PDF that I made using pages and word on Mac running Mountain lion. How do I allow the user of the form to insert JPEG files when filling out the form and how do I allow the user to add more fields or groups of fields as needed.

The type of form yo're describing is possible if you create it in LiveCycle Designer. It may also be possible in Acrobat, but there are certain restrictions. The type of form is known as a dynamic XFA form. LiveCycle Designer is not available on the Mac, so you'd have to install the software on a Windows machine and learn how to create this type of form. The LiveCycle Designer forum here is a good resource for getting more help.
Reader 11 now supports creating new pages using templates with a form that you create in Acrobat (Acroform). This requires some JavaScript programming. It also adds support for using a button to display a page from a PDF, which can be an image or anything else a PDF can be. So the user would click a button, be prompted to import a page from an existing PDF, and the button (or a different button) displays it as its icon. This would require the user to convert the image to PDF first, which is relatively easy these days (e.g., using Preview on the Mac, or Word on Mac/Windows). This too involves a bit of JavaScript programming, but it's very simple and straightforward.

When printing form using Adobe Acrobat X, I get squares over my italic text

Hi,
I have created an Adobe Form using Adobe Acrobat XI Pro and just printed it to check whether this works and the following occured:
- When printing my 14 page document using adobe reader everything looked great
- When printing my 14 page document using adobe prof X (not XI !) the italic text had some (non filled, seethrough) squares throughout it. The squares are not constant (5-15 squares per sentence) and I cannot recognize a pattern. However, they appear each time I print the entire document.
- When printing only one page of the document (that has italic text on it) it prints fine with either the free adobe reader or adobe pro X.
Font is Verdana,Italic. Size is 8,27 pt. Data is sometimes embedded (I did not use this feature and have no idea what is means). I always use Windows. Right now windows 7 to be exact.
One more thing: as you can see above the file was created using adobe XI. However, my company uses adobe pro X and therefore the document had to be printable using adobe pro X.
Can someone please help me? I have put a lot of time in the design of this form and not being able to print it correctly is a real dealbreaker for using it which would mean my efforts were wasted.
I added an example to clearify:
Best,
Linda

I downloaded MS hotfix and the issue still persists.
We have to identify if this is an adobe issue or a microsoft issue.

Hi.
Does this only open on that specific site?
In any case, you may want to:
- instruct Firefox to handle PDF files in a specific way by going into Tools > Options > Applications and selecting the option you want for the PDF files
- reinstall Adobe Reader and its Firefox plugin
- install another reader instead of Adobe Reader. I recommend Foxit Reader ( http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/reader/ ), since it's free, VERY light, VERY fast, safe and also has a Firefox plugin (make sure you don't have both Adobe Reader plugin and Foxit Reader plugin enabled/installed at the same time in Firefox)

OK, let's try more thoroughly uninstalling the hp software for 10.5 using the 'scrubber' option. First, install the wrong software from the CD (for 10.5) so we can more thoroughly uninstall it. Next:
Go to Applications/Hewlett Packard/ click on HP Uninstaller
Click on Continue
Highlight your device on the left pane
Hold the Ctrl, Opt and Cmd keys and click on Uninstall << This is the scrubber option
There will be a pop up that asks if you are sure you want to uninstall ALL hp software. (At this point, if you continue, any HP printers you have installed will need to be reinstalled)
Click Continue and let it finish
Restart your Mac
Now, run a Software Update.
Finally, download and install the "Full Featured" Driver and Software from the "Support & Drivers" link at the top of this page.

How do I remove top and bottom margins when printing using Adobe Acrobat XI Standard.

How do I remove top and bottom margins when printing using Adobe Acrobat XI Standard. (I selected 'Fit to scale' and there's a huge gap on the top and bottom).

Those margins are usually reported from the printer settings to Acrobat. Meansif you have, for example, an inkjet printer and that printer can not print seamlessly, then there will be a minimum margin.
Check your printer's page settings.

Provide you have Acrobat 9 installed in an OS for which Acrobat 9 is compatible then you can use the functionality.
As well, you need a scanner connected, powered up, and the software installed. Acrobat 9 "prefers" TWAIN drivers.
Always visit the scanner vendor's site and download - install the latest greatest software.
n.b., The Acrobat 9.x product family passed into "End of Support" mid-year 2013.
As well the Acrobat 9.x product family is not compatible with contemporary OSs.
Be well...

Not sure what you mean by that: is that URL in an image, or is it actual text?
If it is in an image, then you need to extract the image, edit it with something like Photoshop, then add it back to the PDF.
If the URL is actual text, I suggest that you remove the entire URL, then add the corrected link.

I tried clicking on the Adobe Flash Player. It said it accepted it but it did not make a difference.
Can anyone help?
Thank you!

You haven't actually asked a question, but as stated you should only download Flash Player directy from Adobe.
Nor have you said what version of OS X and Safari you are running.
You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. Note that version 10,1,102,64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users*. The latest version,10.3 or later, is for Intel Macs only, as Adobe no longer support the PPC platform. Version 11.0.1.152 is for Lion.
* Unhelpfully, if you want the last version for PPC Macs, you need to go here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html and scroll down to 'Archived Versions/Older Archives'. Flash Player 10.1.102.64 is the one you download. More information here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/838/cpsid_83808.html
You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

Safari 7.0.6, using Adobe Acrobat 11.0.10, aren't rendering pdf files in the Print Preview screen. Additionally, only a single, blank page prints for a multi-page pdf document. Any ideas?

Safari 7.0.6, using Adobe Acrobat 11.0.10, isn't rendering pdf files in the Print Preview screen. Additionally, only a single, blank page prints for a multi-page pdf document. Any ideas?

Figured it out. It had nothing to do with the software levels of Safari or Adobe Acrobat. Here's the fix:
Open Finder/Applications
Search "Internet Plug-Ins"
Move any Adobe plug-ins to the trash
Quit Safari
Launch Safari
Your pdf document should now render in Print Preview and print properly.

I have a new 64bit computer to which I have transferred all my files and re-installed all my programsWhen I try to print a page using Adobe Acrobat 9, Firefox crashes. This has never happened before, and does not happen with other browsers.

Thanks for your reply cor-el. I had never heard of nor seen the pref network.http.max-connections until I read about it in some of the replies in this support forum. People were saying 256 was the old setting and a new setting of 48 would correct my problem. When I followed the instructions to get to - see - and change the setting I discovered that my network.http.max-connections was already set to 48. I never did this. The only way I can think of that this setting was changed is that it happened by an automatic update to my Firefox browser. So, the problem I have was probably happening while this setting was at 48 all along. It is still set at 48 and I am still having the same problem. I will try as you suggest and set it to 30 and see what happens. I'll let you know the results. That's again for your response.

I am using a Dell PC with Windows 7 Professional as the Operating System.

File > Page Setup = Scale
The Scale control is what controls the size of what is printed to paper. 100% is usually the best setting.

I converted a 253 page document from Word 2010 to pdf using Adobe Professional 8. The pdf fike only had 251 pages. Why?

Word documents don't have a fixed page layout; Word reflows freely if it wants. This isn't normally a problem unless things like typing page numbers is done; avoid that.

Printing to a PDF file directly Using Adobe's Printer driver and NO GUI

We are on Oracle 10G running Oracle Forms/Reports 6i.
I would like to be able to run Oracle Reports directly to a PDF file using Adobe's pdf driver and not oracle's pdf driver (not happy with it). (This can be done easily enough) using Adobe's PDF Converter as the Printer.
My additional requirement is to provide the output filename to the Adobe's pdf driver and have the report be executed without any user intervention. How do I do this?
Thanks

Not following asking for more????
I just want to create pdf files with Oracle Reports (not using the Oracle PDF driver) but using one I have and the I will process these PDF files using my own utilities.
