Printing of internet-based pdf files garbled by Acrobat 8 Pro

I am running Acrobat 8 Pro on a pc under Windows XP SP2. Any pdf files received by email or downloaded from the internet (Explorer 8) are completely garbled. Same happens with Reader 9. However, when I print from my laptop with Vista Home Basic, Explorer 7 and Reader 9, to the SAME printer, everything is fine. Any suggestions?

Question1: No.
Question2: No.

  • Prevent Printing of web-based .pdf files in Adobe Acrobat X Pro

    Hello,
    Could I get brief answers to the following three questions...
    Question 1:
    Do the prevent printing advanced options in Adobe Acrobat Pro X work reliably across all main browsers, such that I can safely display the .pdf files on a website, knowing that the majority of users (Chrome, Firefox. IE), will not be able to print the files, even if they save them to their local disk?
    Question 2:
    Can I go further than that and actually prevent the local saving of the .pdf files altogether?
    Question 3:
    Assuming one or both of the answers is Yes, which is what I am hoping for, will security measures prevent Google reading and indexing the files.
    Actually, I want this also to be a yes. It is only the downloading and printing of the files I hope to prevent, restricting those actions to people who purchase the documents.
    Many thanks in advance for your help.

    Question1: No.
    Question2: No.

  • PDF files created in Acrobat Pro X for Mac will not print correctly on Windows - text is missing

    I recently created a PDF file with pictures and texts in Acrobat Pro X. However, when I send it to my coworkers (who work on Windows computers), the printed file contains only images, and no text. I am using Century Gothic - a font that is installed on these Windows computers. When they open the files, they can see the text and everything exactly as it is meant to be. However, upon printing, the text disappears completely.
    We are using a Konica Minolta Bizhub printer to complete these printouts. When I print from my computer (the Mac), the files print perfectly on this printer. However, when using the same printer, a Windows user cannot print the text in the PDF's.
    Has anyone else run across this problem? I am thinking of trying to embed fonts, however it doesn't seem like it would make much of a difference (since the fonts show up fine on a Windows computer anyways). Is there a known issue with printing PDF's on a Konica Minolta printer?

    The archive format you used embeds all fonts, as does Press and Print type job settings. The standard job settings does not embed all fonts and that might be where the problem was.

  • How does I resize a pdf file page using Acrobat Pro?

    In Acrobat Pro, how can one resize a pdf file page (21.38'' x 26.75'') into one measuring 6'' x 9'', to be submitted as the trim size? Is there a feature that allows this to be done? How does one set all print options from the Application print dialog box to enable one to adjust the dimensions of any customized file page?

    I want to scale the 21.4'' by 26.8'' content down to one that can be fitted inside a 6'' by 9'' book.
    I have this pdf that was created from the InkFlow app, and I'm using Acrobat Pro to merge three files into one (about 300MB), which I needed to submit to Amazon's CreateSpace, but they needed the trim size of 6'' by 9'', while the pdf is 21.4''' by 26.8'', and I can't amend the source file size of the InkFlow files.
    I tried fiddling with the Crop and Print options, but I'm unable to resize the pdf to match the trim size. The problem on my side isn't so much on printing but to resize the pdf file page to 6'' by 9'' to satisfy Amazon's requirement for their trim size. Could this be done with Acrobat Pro? The message that appears is: Full print options of Acrobat Pro, set all print options from the Application print dialog box. Thank for the help.

  • Inserting a barcode in a pdf file in Adobe Acrobat Pro

    I have a PDF bookcover created for a printed book, but I'm having trouble inserted the barcode (a eps file , and pdf file ). How do I insert the barcode into the bookcover file in Adobe Acrobat? Please help!

    Ok, I created an .eps file, and I'm afraid that I couldn't find a way to insert it into a .pdf; this means you must first convert the .eps file into another image file, e.g. .tiff, .jpeg, .png, or similar.  You can do that with Acrobat, although it is easier with Photoshop.
    1. Convert .eps file to .tiff file
    open .eps file in Acrobat
    File | Save as |
    Save as type: TIFF (or PNG, or JPEG)
    click Save
    2. Insert .tiff file into .pdf
    open .pdf file in Acrobat
    click on Tools, then Content Editing
    click Add Image
    select the converted .tif file and click Open
    the inserted image should become visible; move it to its destination location
    see the below image for an ISBN barcode I have just inserted into an empty space of a back bookcover
    If it is indeed an ISBN barcode image you need to insert, I highly recommend that you convert your .eps file to a high-quality image type like TIFF.  JPEG images can get compressed and create a low-quality image.  Low-quality barcodes on books can sometimes not be read by barcode scanners; therefore my recommendation to use a high-quality image.
    Let me know if you have any further questions, or need clarification somewhere.

  • How to change numbers of PDF file in Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended #9

    I just combined 3 PDF files that had their own numbering into one. I have searched how to change this file into a consecutive numbering with no success. I do the steps outlined to open the Number options, but when filling in the blanks, and making choices, nothing changes on the pages ... just in the thumbnail section.
    HELP!

    Post your question in a forum for Acrobat. Adobe Reader can't change page numbers.

    There were problems with IE9 on it's initial release and that may be what you are seeing if that is the browser (you did not indicate the browser and that may be a key). If you have a different browser you might try that one with the same pages to see if it browser related.
    By saying garbled it sounds like the fonts did not make it or you have selected "Use Local Fonts" in Acrobat. Try checking the latter first. Then check if the fonts are embedded in the PDF by checking the document properties (ctrl-D). If they are not, go back to the browser and select the press or print job options before printing and see if they get embedded and if your problem is resolved.

  • Printing a package of PDF files double sided

    I am printing a package of PDF files that changes based on how questions are answered, they print double-sided.  I want certain pages to not print on the back of another.  Is there any way to dynamically insert page breaks dependent on the forms included in the package?  Thanks,

    Hi,
    You might experiment with a page or two first.
    1.Choose File > Print.
    2.From the Subset pop-up menu in the Print Range area, select Even Pages Only.
    3.Click OK or Print.
    4.If the total number of pages is odd, add a blank sheet so the final odd page has a sheet to print on.
    5.Put the stack of printed paper back into the supply (source) paper tray so that the unprinted sides print. Point the top of the pages toward the printer. Make sure that the edges of the paper stack are square.
    6.Choose File > Print and select Odd Pages Only from the Subset menu.
    7.Select the Reverse Pages option. In this scenario, the Reverse pages option ensures that the page sequence is correct.
    8.Click OK or Print.

  • Printing problem with some pdf files

    This problem is with Windows 7 and XP.
    When trying to print I receive the following error:
    "The Document could not be printed.
    There were no pages selected to print."
    I tried the print image button and same error. 
    This is Adobe Reader 10
    I have also tried saving to different files and still same problem.
    Thanks

    Hi!
    I've tested the issue again with Adobe Reader 10.1.4 on MS Windows XP Pro. SP3, MS Windows 7 Pro. SP1 32-bit and 64-bit with the following drivers:
    - HP Universal Printing PS package ver. 5.5.0.12834 (driver ver. 61.130.04.12834) for printing to HP LaserJet 4100 DTN (224 MiB of RAM) and HP Color LaserJet 4700dn (288 MiB of RAM)
    - Samsung Universal Print Driver PS ver. 2.03.09.00_41 for printing to Samsung ML-3051DN printer with 64 MiB of RAM
    Printing of the sample 6-page PDF file (https://workspaces.acrobat.com/?d=ojv64pOBncq6XxtSiRqSkw) is still slow because the document stays long in the Windows print queue. Here are the test results:
    - printing with the HP UPD PS driver - 120 sec.
    - printing with the Samsung UPD PS driver - 220 sec.
    When the same PDF file is printed in FoxitReader 5.4.4 the document stays in the print queue for only 15 sec.
    Enabling the Print As Image option in the Reader's Advanced Print Setup can help to some degree (it gives better kB/sec. ratio but it increases the size of the print job).
    I'd really appreciate it if developers at Adobe improved the Reader in order to solve the issue with the PS drivers.

  • Printing Word document as pdf files whilst  retaining active internal links

    Hi,
    I have a Word file (Word 2004 for Mac Version 11.3.5) with active links to various sections within the document.
    However, when I print this as a pdf file all the links become inactive. Is anyone aware of a way to prevent this?
    Kind regards,
    Damon

    I tested this problem and got some interesting results. First of all, I created a document in Word 2004 (11.3.5) with two links, one to an external web site and the other to another Word document on my Mac. I then printed the file to pdf and opened the doc in Preview. Neither links were active, although as you have seen they look like a hyperlink. Opening the same document in Acrobat 8, the external link works but the internal link is still not active.
    Next, I printed the Word document via the Adobe PDF 8.0 driver. The same result occured as above. The external link was active in Acrobat but not Preview, while the internal link was no good for either application.
    I did some searching. Mactopia has no mention of this problem. There is a posting on Macosxhints with the same problem, but no fix. So unless someone else out there has an answer you may be out of luck for your internal link...
