Printing Problems with Acrobat Pro 9.5 for Mac

I have Acrobat pro 9.5 for Mac. I'm using a Canon MG8150 multi-function printer. Everytime I try to print from Arobat Pro I get an error message. Any suggestions? I can print my pdfs from Apple Preview; so it's not the document or the printer.

The first problem is probably a permissions issue. Run Repair Permissions from the Disk Utility. For the second see this

(1) The Adobe PDF Printer module does not work under OS X.6. Please see http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/509/cpsid_50981.html to find out how to create Adobe Quality PDFs under Snow Leopard.
(2) Opening files from the finder, including files authored by Adobe applications, may not open them in the original authoring application. Omitting a file extension from the file name will increase the likelihood of this happening. See http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/511/cpsid_51110.html for more information.

Printing problem with Acrobat Pro 10.1

I get an "Insufficient memory" message on my LaserJet printer when trying to print certain PDFs using Acrobat Pro 10.1, but the PDFs are printed without any problem from Acrobat Pro 9 or Preview. Does anybody else have this problem?

Thanks for responding I was using an MS Excel spreadsheet to merge details to produce labels in a programme called NiceLabel Pro. The information from the spreadsheet was very simple - a readable code number and a QR code. In the Nice Label document setup you nominate the printer - in my case this was the Adobe PDF printer - to produce a Press Ready quality PDF file. I tried several times to print this file and each time ended up with page 1. As the job was urgent and I had a deadline to meet, I ended up installing a programme called Nitro - which also produces PDF - to complete the job, without a problem. However, I would prefer to stick with my Adobe Acrobat software as the other alternative is limited in its pre-press options. Hope this information will enable a solution to the problem.
- Thanks, Lynne
Hi again Dov - have you been able to come up with an answer to my Acrobat problem. Would like to begin 2015 with workable Acrobat.
Many thanks - Lynne

Printing proble with Acrobat 11.0.02 for mac

While printing I get 'unable to convert to postscript file'

Hi,
I'm sorry if you experience performance issues and understand it can be frustrating.
Can you help us help you:
- What system are you running?
- What does performance problems mean? Is Acrobat still responsive? How responsive is the user interface? Navigating through pages, etc?
We'll do our best to ensure the situation can be solved and you can enjoy using Acrobat on your computer.
Thank you,
Luc

Has anyone managed to deploy Acrobat Pro 9.0 for Mac through ARD?

Has anyone managed to get Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.0 for Mac to deploy with any level of reliability through tools such as Apple Remote Desktop?
The main CS3 apps are "better", if still kludgy to deploy somewhat silently, but every time I've tried to get Acrobat Pro 9.0 to deploy, it steadfastly refuses to do so without demanding admin access on at least the first launch, and insisting on running the Updater in the process, which is completely unacceptable.
I should say that I've looked at their Adobe Acrobat deployment site (http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/solutions/it/), and it's entirely useless for the Mac version.
Why do Adobe make this so hard?

Okay, I think I've figured this out.
* On a clean machine (ie: no Adobe software), install Adobe Acrobat Pro
* Run Acrobat. Insert license code. Allow it to "selfheal". Quit.
* Run Distiller. Allow it to "selfheal". Quit.
* Edit AcroEFGPro90.plist and AcroEFGDist90.plist which can be found in Contents > MacOS within the Acrobat and Distiller apps respectively.
* Change the "Requires" tags from "YES" to "NO" for all the file resources.
* Copy these to plist files into /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Acrobat/ and overwrite the ones that are already there.
* Run Acrobat and Distiller again. Allow "selfheal" if prompted. Quit.
* Run again. Quit.
* Build a Mac OS X installer package of the following:
/Applications/Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.0
/Applications/Utilites/Adobe Utilities
/Library/Application Support/Adobe/
/Library/Application Support/FLEXnet*
/Library/Preferences/com.adobe.*
/Library/Preferences/FLEXnet*
/Library/Internet Plug-ins/AdobePDFViewer.plugin
/Library/ColorSync/Profiles/
/Library/Printers/PPD Plugins/Adobe*
/Library/Printers/PPDs/.../.../.../ADPDF9.PPD (one per language)
/Users/Shared/Adobe
/usr/libexec/cups/backend/pdf900
* After you've built the package, go through the Acrobat application bundle and find cupshup.pl. Copy it into the Resources folder of the installer package, and rename it to "postflight" (this gets the installer to configure the PDF printer).
* Distribute through ARD.
* Grab com.adobe.* from ~/Library/Preferences
* Distribute the com.adobe.* files to all users; the .plist files can be done through Workgroup Manager, however com.adobe.118.registration must be copied as-is into the user folder, rather than being injected via MCX or the defaults command or any other method, as it's not a plist.
Dear Adobe,
MAKE THIS SIMPLER.

Problem printing PDF with Acrobat Pro 9.4.4

Hi!
I can't correctly print a PDF with Acrobat Pro that was created in Indesign CS5.
I want to print it on a letter format (8,5 X 11") and it offers me a format of 8,49 X 10,99". It results in having my document being printed as tile with it's original format 12 X 21,5" as if I didn't adjust the format to be reduced.
I temporary used Preview to print my PDF, but now I can't as the encoding in which I received the PDF used to be "Creo Normalizer JTP" and now it is "Adobe PDF Library 9.9"
If anyone can help!
This is my first time here, thanks in advance for your help

Here's what it looks like (I work in french, hope you can understand)
I just updated my software, thanks for that!
Now, my problem is still on... I still have the very same result when I print. I did selected the correct Page Scalling I needed. I did selected the paper size I wanted. I chose Shrink to Printable Area and I tried with Fit to Printable Area.
Since I've had this problem the size appears as : 8,49 X 10,99 (Instead of 8,5 X 11). I tried with Legal (8,5 X 14) but it appears as 8,49 X 13,99. I went through the preferences, but I can't find anything that could be the problem.
Any other idea?
Thanks!!
Also, Preview was very helpful, as it did print my PDF correctly! I understand it's not the best... but it did the job

Printing Problems with Acrobat 9.5.1?

I recently installed the update - Acrobat Pro 9.5.1 (Mac). Now I am having problems printing pdf files.
I re-installed printer drivers and printer software a couple of times. Got a file to print this morning and now nothing will print again.
These upgrades are more trouble than they are worth. What a waste of my time and time is money when you run your own business.
I've found no help online for this issue.
Printer - Epson Stylus Photo R1800

The printer.
iPhoto is still active and I can do other things with it. The job has been sent tothe printer so I guess it's the printer where the problme lies, or the communication between the Mac and the printer (which is wireless, though that shouldn't make a difference).

Problem with Acrobat Pro - install, etc.

I have problem with my Acrobat Pro (in Adobe Design Standard CS6 edition) - Regularly once a month throughout the software crashes and will not turn on. Only helps to re-install. Now I additionally happened that when reinstalling does not load serial number. It made me very disgruntled. Can you please help? Acrobat Pro I still need to work and this is me terribly resides. My customer identification number is : 168735979. Thank you.

Thank you but unfortunately the process does not work. It makes the same thing as before. When I install and enters the serial number, it writes: We are unable to verify the product serial number Creative Suite 6 Design Standard. Please contact Customer Support.
When I deactivated Photoshop and re-activated by the process, everything went without a problem. The problem is only with Acrobat Pro. Acrofix - after running only flashes a command prompt window, otherwise nothing happens. I do not know what to do ....

Any problems with Windows Media Player 9 for Mac OS X?

I want to be able to play video from CNN.com, but it says I need Windows Media Player 9. Before I download it, I want to know if it is reliable.
I've already got Flip4Mac, and that doesn't help. (I get a -2048 error.)
Please share experiences with Windows Media Player 9 for Mac OS X so I can decide whether or not to download it.
Thanks,
Matt

The default application you're looking for is "Stuffit Expander".
http://www.stuffit.com/mac/expander/ is the page you'll be looking for...think Winzip for Mac. Once stuffit is installed you should be able to open the .sitx or .hqx file you may have downloaded...essentially a package that stuffit can open for you so you can install media player.

Printing problems with acrobat and Mavericks

We just got a new Mac Mini to replace an old iMac to drive our printers. We normally print from Acrobat Pro 9 ( 10.6.8 & 10.8.5 ) and have no problems. We migrated everything over to the Mini, which is running Mavericks, and now when we print a 2 page document the 2nd page is printing 180 degrees turned around. Printed the same file from another Mac with no problems. I've heard that Mavericks will only run Acrobat Pro XI. This is insane, that's like $450! Could it be a driver or something simple that I can't see for the life of me? BTW, this Mini will be running 10 printers at once, the old one did it.

Have you reset the printing system…
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14141
Does Preview do any better? That will indicate if it's the printer driver or something in the application's printing system.
It would be worth checking that the printer drivers are up to date - a migrated driver may not be appropriate for 10.9.

Printer problems with Officejet Pro 8500 A910

Dear all,
I have been given as a present an Officejet Pro 8500 A910 (serie number CN16LDM020 and product number CM756A). The people whom I have got it from already had some problems with the printer heads. I have accepted the printer, because I want to have it working again. I do encounter some problems however. I hope you kind people on the forum can help me out and get this thing working again. As a side note: I am only interested in using the scanner, printer (only black and white - I do not print in colour) and e-printing (I understand that it is possible to email documents to printer, so that they are printed whilst you are somewhere else).
Upon installation I have conneted the internet to my wi-fi. Upon installation it made some test prints, whereby the black dots were good, but the cyan and other colours were not. When I now turn off the installed printer and switch it on again it takes the printer about 5 - 7 minutes to initialize. On the touch screen of the printer it is said "Checking printer, this might take 5 minutes", "Checking printheads", "Aligning printheads" and alike notifications. After 5 - 7 minutes the printer gives the following notification: " Failure notice. Alignment failed. Refer to device documentation for details." When I then push the question mark on the touch screen the following notidication is given: " Alignment failed. Check printer quality of the current print job. If it is not satisfactory, try aligning the printer to see if that improves the quality. To align the printhead again, touch (home), touch (arrow right), touch Tools, and then touch Align Printhead." When I follow these instructions, the same thing happens. I have tried the option "Clean printheads" under "Tools". The test prints that come out are again good in black and white and not good in colour.
The ink level of the cartridges is very low for Yellow, Magenta and Cyan. For Black the printer gives a question mark. The expiry date of the cartridges is in 2015. The information on the Self Test Diagnostic Page (you get when you print a report from checking the ink cartridges) gives the following status:
Printhead status
Printhead health: Good (for both Black/Yellow and Magenta/Cyan)
Serial: 7735960 (Black/Yellow) and 7744345 (Magenta/Cyan)
End of warranty: mid-2013
Accumulated ink usage (ml): Black 99/Yellow 71, Magenta 57/Cyan 58
Refilled supply:
Detected in printhead/printer? For all cartidges "yes".
When I try to print a document from Word on my MacBook (which runs on Mac OS X 10.6.8) and the printer is on stand-by, Word recognizes the printer, starts with the print order but then comes with the notifications "Printer offline" and "Cannot find printer" and postpones the print order. Today I reset the printer and the print job that I had before the reset (which was postponed) came out.
Today, I printed a document whilst the printer was not on stand-by (the touch screen was on home menu) and the print was well (it was only black and white). After the print, the printer also made a print report. Again, the colour was bad, but black ink was good. After that print report, the printer started aligning again. After 5 minutes it gave the above-mentioned failure notice (" Failure notice. Alignment failed. Refer to device documentation for details.").
I would assume that the first thing that I should do is get new cartridges. However, since I only print black and white, can't I just buy the Black Ink and disable the other cartridges? Then, I am thinking of not buying HP cartridges (since the warranty term is already over). What cartridges do you reccomend (price-quality)? If new cartridges are installed (previous owner had same problems with full cartridges) and the problems (with print heads) are not solved, what should I do?
On a second note, I want to use the option of printing online. In other words, give a print order on my Iphone to the printer so that it starts printing at home. How do I set this up? How can I test this?
I would be very obliged with your feedback on the above.
Kind regards,
Onno

Hey Onno,
I see you have several items listed about your Officejet Pro 8500a (A910 series) printer. The main issue that stands out is the print quality issue. I would advise starting here with your printer.
From your information I can see that refill or remanufacture cartridges have been used in this printer at some point. It is possible that the ink from these cartridges have damaged the internal ink system of the printer. If you have performed all the troubleshooting steps for the print quality issue you are experiencing, then the next step is going to be replacing the printheads of the unit.
Troubleshooting Print Quality Issues
The 8500a requires all cartridges be available even if you are simply printing in B&W. If the cartridges are low, then you will have to replace the cartridges as needed. Typically by the design of this printer, however, print quality issues do not follow ink levels in the cartridges as ink is piped to the internal printheads, thus even with empty cartridges there is some ink remaining in the system.
The printheads for the 8500a can be found at most HP certified retailers if you decide to attempt replacing them as a step towards resolving the issue. As to the cartridges, I would advise using genuine HP cartridges as HP ink is designed with HP printers in mind. For information about refilled/remanufactured cartridges please click here.
Hope this helps in getting the print quality issue alleviated,
Jason

Printing problem in Acrobat Pro

Hello all.
I have acrobat pro CS4 and have just made this my default from Preview as I am finding print output from preview is really bad.
However I am having an issue in Pro.
I cannot seem to make it understand the dimensions my printer can goto. I have a phaser 8550 which can print to within 8mm of the edge of the paper (A4)
Now if I tell it to reduce to fit and print it will print with the bottom edge being a good inch from the edge. If I tell it not to reduce then it will print to within the 8in, but of course the image is cropped.
Is there anyway to get this right?

You say you're using Verdana but you're not. The error message clearly shows you're using MyriadPro Bold.
You probably recently installed the Mac OS X 10.6.7 update which has a bug with OpenType PostScript fonts like MyriadPro Bold. Either use Verdana or another TrueType or PostScript font, or revert to Mac OS X 10.6.6.
