I have Adobe Reader and SendNow. What do I need to print a pdf?
Well, you'd need a printer.
Or are you trying to create a pdf?

In MAC, I want to change document size from 8.5X11 to 18X24 to create a poster to print through Staples. I created the doc originally in WORD, changed the size in WORD, converted to PDF doc. But PDF doc is still in 8.5X11. Read ADOBE support help info. Terls me to change size in application rather than printer. BUT ACROBAT Pro does not give me a page set up option in FILE. I can only find one in the printer dialog box. Help!
from the FAQs on Staples website:
I have a file that I know is a PDF, but the website claims it is not in a PDF format. What should I do?
Check to see that the file has the .PDF extension. Also, check that the filename does not have any special characters such as an ampersand (“&”).
Regarding your measurements set to centimeters rather than inches; is it just in MS Word?
Or does it occur in all other applications.
Check your Work preferences first:
If it is happening in all your applications, check your Mac OS System Preferences. -
Mysterious lines and gradient when printing from Illustrator or pdf on PC and MAC
First of all I have to admit I'm not a big computer brainiac but this issue keeps on reoccurring no matter what computer I use. When creating files/layouts in Illustrator and either saving them to pdf and then printing or printing directly from Illustrator either from a PC or from Mac (I use both) the print outs come out with mysterious lines and gradient not matter what colour is used. The lines occur on solid colour prints, when gradient or transparency are not used and when they are used as well. Any ideas suggestions how to make them go away?
Monica,
Here's an image of a print out that was meant to be a solid black colour. This happens with other colours as well not just with black. -
Problem printing from Adobe Reader .pdf with Brother printer from a Mac
I have a macbook pro with Intel Core i7 and OS X Yosemite and Brother MFC-7360N printer connected by wifi. My problem is that I can print everything from all programs except from the Adobe Reader .pdf that do I print from my Preview files .. The error I get is "Error filter". Does anyone know where can originate the error and how to fix it?
With another O.S. in another computer is OK.
Thank you

PDFs created from Save As PDF when Printing?
I a m working in QuarkXPress 6.5, creating a business card using PMS colors and CMYK tifs. When I "Save As a PDF…" from the Print dialog box, I think everything is okay. Then I send it to a printing company and they double-check the image and say it is a RGB, not CMYK, And also, the fonts print as outlines, causing the characters to spread. They are using a PC & Adobe Acrobat to check the files. I need help — fast!!
Mac Intel Duo Core Mini Mac OS X (10.4.6) printers are Epson CX4200 & HP 5000Hi JackieDesigns2,
I always tell people to make the PDF with the end result in mind. If you're wanting to "print" the PDF, then make the PDF CMYK and not RGB. This goes for sending the resulting PDF to another printer or whatever.
Here's a link to help you with the settings:
http://www.aapg.org/advertise/AAPGPDFSettings.pdf
The PDF X-1a specification forces all fonts to embedd, CMYK color space, no ICC profiles, no transparency and some other little goodies made for printing everyone can go by.
I will say that while many applications have their own why to "make" a PDF, the best, most consistant method is to make a postscript file and distill the postscript file.
Keep in mind that programs that write postscript, write (or speak) postscript with different dialect's so-to-speak. Some interpeters can understand the common dialect where it cannot understand others. This is why some app's are more problematic than others in making good postscript.
Quark writes fairly clean postscript (or used to), distilling your files from Quark should work well. -
My Office Print Pro 8600 Plus will not print pdf files sent to it from an iPad using ePrint.
My Office Print Pro 8600 Plus will not print pdf files sent to it from an iPad using ePrint. I just get an error message when I go to the HP Eprint centre. It does print the cover e-mail but nothing else. The attachment is not secure as far as I can see. I have tried sending an attachment from my Mac and that worked fine.
This question was solved.
View Solution.Hello krnkln3.
Are you trying to send the PDF as an attachment in an e-mail sent to the ePrint e-mail address of the printer or are you trying to print using the ePrint app?
Try sending the same PDF document to the printer's ePrint e-mail address and let us know if that works. If this works but using the ePrint app is not working, maybe the ePrint app is not working fine with this PDF document (it could be due to it's size or something else). Remember that you can always use the e-mail ePrint address of the printer to send PDF documents as the processing is happening at the HP servers and not in your iPad as when you try to send it using the ePrint app.
Cheers!

For some reason I am no longer able to print from the internet, or pdfs.
In Firefox and Safari, I get the an error saying "Printer Error: An error occurred while printing."
In Acrobate Pro I get the error "The document could not be printed."
I even took a screen shot, but I'm not able to print from Preview.
I recently used Font Nuke to clear my font cache. Could this have caused a problem?
Any thoughts would be appreciated.Try clearing the print queue ...
Open System Preferences > Print & Scan > Print
Click Open Print Queue
Delete all jobs then restart your Mac. Turn the printer off then back on.

We have a large PDF Portfolio with many attachments and would like to print those items all at once without opening every single attachment. I would think think that this is possible considering I took the files from outlook 2003 and you are able to print an email and its attachments in that program. If anyone knows how to do this, I would appreciate the help.
Portfolios only support the printing of PDF files (more specifically, PDF files whose security permissions allow printing). You can print all PDF files in a Portfolio without opening them all simply by opening the Portfolio and clicking on the print button in the Portfolio toolbar. If desired, you can also limit it to a selection of PDF files.
Unfortunately non-PDF files will need to be opened and printed individually from their respective apps. -
Prevent Mac users from opening a PDF form in Preview
When I create an AcroForm, it does not behave the same when someone fills it out in Preview, and when I receive the completed form back from them, some of the information in the form fields is missing.
Is there a way to prevent Mac users from opening the form in Preview? Or to give them a message that the form needs to be filled out using Reader?You can't stop them doing it (except by standing next to their computer with a heavy stick).
You could consider having a large field on the page warning that the file is not to be used (or whatever), which is hidden using Acrobat JavaScript.
Be aware that we are now dealing with a very large set of PDF readers.
Included with computers: Mac OS Preview, Windows Reader.
Included with browsers: Chrome, Firefox.
Included with portable devices.
Anyone who gets a computer these days in fact gets a PDF viewer which is bad with forms. You need to give them a compelling reason to download extra software. (Or, frankly, give up on PDF forms. I think their day has passed for a general audience who could fill in a browser form). -
When I print to PDF using Acrobat 11 Pro from any application the acrobat Reader does not launch automatically. Associations are correct. Happens from Chrome, IE, Word, Excel, Powerpoint. Previously had deskPDF installed but uninstalled correctly. Can't find a preference setting for the auto launch. Thx for your help, Bruce
A simple way is to flatten the form fields, which converts the field appearances to regular page contents. You can do this with JavaScript or PDF Optimizer (Advanced > PDF Optimizer > Discard Objects > Flatten form fields). A very nice script that adds a custom menu item can be found here: http://www.uvsar.com/projects/acrobat/flattener/

When attempting to open a hyperlink to a PDF file on the web from a Microsoft WORD for Mac 2011 (14.3.9) document, Safari 7.0 instead displays the file as text?
As seen in http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac/forum/macoffice2011-macword/has-the-word- 2011-for-mac-invisible-toolbars/018a3ab6-0570-4ad5-abf8-5b6427fdde3e?msgId=e111b f0a-0e32-4fa3-9536-f349dad8439d
and it worked for me:
1. Quit Word
2. In the Finder's menu bar, select Go > Go to folder and type or paste: ~/Library/Preferences/
3. Click on Go
4. Locate the preference file com.microsoft.Word.plist, then Option-drag it to the desktop to create a backup copy
5. Go to Applications/Utilities and open Terminal
6. Paste the following bold command at the $ prompt (it's a single line):
defaults write com.microsoft.Word 14\\Toolbars\\Show_HIToolbar -boolean TRUE
7. Press Return and then quit with Command Q
8. Start Word and test. If the fix works, trash the backup file in the Desktop file. Otherwise, restore it.
In the original source the author also mentions the change in Word 2008 -
Printing issues from InDesign CS4 pdf file
Good morning,
Could you help explain and possibly resolve an issue I'm having with an InDesign CS4 pdf file where the text and image drop shadows (40%) are printing as solid black blocked shapes from a large format printer. The file encompasses 1 overall image, 1 image with drop shadow, 3 text frames with drop shadow effect applied to the text and 1 group set of simple rectangular and ellipse objects with a glow.
My colleagues in graduate school experienced the same with their files and the output bureau's rasterized the pdf file in Photoshop where it printed out with good resolution. Shouldn't this be resolved first in InDesign rather than rasterizing the file?
I appreciate any help and insight you could offer myself and my colleagues.
Thank you, KathrynThe printing service uses Acrobat 8 Pro and HP large format printer. My InDesign CS4 document is in the color mode of RGB and color type as Process. I saved it as a pdf file using the standard settings as follows: Preset: High Quality Print, Standard: None and Compatibility: Acrobat 4 (PDF 1.3). Are there options I should be paying more attention to when creating the PDF file? Also, I was reading up on Peter Spier's response links.
This brings me to the next question...I'm creating a photo book for grad school with approximately 40 pages of images (RGB, 300dpi) with feathered drop shadows. What would be the best settings to use when exporting as a pdf file for printing services?
Thank you for your help.

when printing from an online PDF, the page prints in extra large scale. How do I fix this?
This can happen when Firefox has misread the paper size from the information supplied by Windows. Clearing it can involve finding some obscure settings, but here goes:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''print''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) For each setting for the problem printer, right-click and Reset it. The fastest way is to right-click with the mouse and then press the r key on the keyboard with your other hand.
Note: In a couple other threads involving Brother printers, the preference '''printer_printer_name.print_paper_data''' was set to 256 and when the user edited it to 1 that fixed the paper size problem. If you see a 256 there, you can edit the value by doubling-clicking it or using right-click>Modify.
