Printing to file issue

I have an issue with Adobe Acrobat Pro 9. When a user opens up and email and prints that email to a pdf if prompts the users for a file name and location to save the item. The user can enter a file name and save the pdf file to her desktop successfully, but she cannot save the pdf to a network drive. She has the appropriate rights on the network and can save and delete files to and from the network drive so its not a rights issue. ADOBE will not save the file to the drive.

There are issues with some network setups that cause problems. You may be able to search the archives for more information. Unfortunately I do not know the solution other than printing locally and copying the file to the network.

Export color vs. print to file color issue with 2.3RC

Hi,
I'm having problems with exporting photos for web-site usage.
In short: colors get extremely washed out and plain when using "export to disk" (requesting sRGB color profile, in jpg-format). But, when "printing to file" using sRGB profile and rendering intent perceptual colors are reasonably close to what I see in LR. Yes, I know, sRGB is limited, but...
Why there is such a difference when both methods are using sRGB for generated jpg? Is it the fact that rendering intent can not be selected for "export to disk"?
As I can not control pixel dimensions in Print mode is not an option for my use (and I can not control sharpening with plug-in, but the color issue is there to begin with without any export plugin intervention).
In contrast, LR 1.4 export to disk gives reasonable colors, the color issue has appeared with 2.x series.
Running Windows XP SP3, LR 2.3RC, display calibrated with Color Vision SPyder 2.
Please help, this is driving me nuts :(

I think, that your examples shows the same problem as my observations.
It seems that your display has even smaller gamut than sRGB (on my notebook DELL D620 this is also the case) so after you calibrated it, both lightroom and color managed firefox shows more saturated colors than windows explorer showing exported image (as far as I know, export from library module works correctly, but win explorer is not doing conversion to your monitor profile, that's why image is undersaturated). This is correct. It is really hard to calibrate such a low quality display, which can often be found on cheap notebooks - I have my own experience with it. Blue shades are really weak so heavy corrections have to be done in the profile (generated with spyder in your case), which can result in purple skies (why? Read this: http://www.brucelindbloom.com/index.html?WorkingSpaceInfo.html).
Problem is with image printed to file. This should look same as file exported from library module given that you use sRGB both as a destination space in export from library and as a printer profile while printing to file. In your case LR printed your image using values corresponding to your monitor profile (even if sRGB was selected) which resulted in oversaturated image (because your display has smaller gamut than sRGB). In my case images printed to file are undersaturated (because my monitor has gamut wider than sRGB). But I'm sure this is a bug! Your monitor profile should not affect printing to file in any case if sRGB is selected as printer profile!
Summary: purle sky in LR and in color managed FF is ok, but purple sky in image printed to file is not ok. :-)
And my hint: do not try to calibrate this display... :-)
You can try to make some measurements of your UNCALIBRATED NB display using this freeware: http://www.homecinema-fr.com/colorimetre/index_en.php You will probably see a very uneven color temperature across grayscale and much smaller gamut than sRGB.
Let us know your findings.

Security issues with applets and windows Vista when printing to file

Hi, everyone
I am currently developing an application that prints out the result of some calculations.
from a Javascript file, the output finally ends up in a java applet that should print the file in a special printer.
For debugging purposes I have created a File printer that creates a file from the output comming to the printer; this way I can debug what commands the printer is receiving.
This worked well on Windows Xp; Vista always asks for permissions for the applet, and altough I guarantee these permissions, printer is not allowed to create the output file and reports an error writing
after a little research, I have found that java applets have all permissions when certificated as trusted applications; all but file creating permissions
anyone has any idea of how could I fix this problem?
Thanks in advance

HI,
Have you actually signed your applet? If the signers certificate is the trusted key store for Java it should treat your applet as trusted. You can use a self signed certificate for testing as long as the cert is in the trusted key store.

Issues with printing PDF files from an ADOBE application

When printing PDF files from an Adobe application, some of the characters are lost and do not print. What can I do?

Please don't post the same question multiple times!

Unable to print to file in adobe acrobat 9 pro, windows 7 OS

ok, so i've been having this problem since 16/1/2012. I download a pdf file from online, open it and attempted to combine multiple slides into 1 slide like below:
my printer cannot print duplex so i have to combine multiple slides to 1 in order to print that way. anyways, i always select the option of "Adobe PDF" under the "Printer" box. I don't change anything else. I am then prompted to save the file as below:
so after that i click "Save" and they gave me this warning message.
in case you cannot see what's written in the dialogue box, here's what it says:
When you create a PostScript file, you must rely on system fonts and use document fonts.
Please go to printer properties, "Adobe PDF Settings" page and turn OFF the option "Rely on system fonts only; do not use document fonts."
I click "Ok" and another message appears:
I click "OK" and then another message appears:
So i clicked "OK" again and then nothing happens. After I followed the instructions to rely on system fonts, I tried doing it agian and everything seems ok. Flattening document etc like below:
and when it has finished, nothing happens. No new pdf window pops up (like what it usually does). So I went to check the folder where I stored the file. This was what i saw:
it turns out the file I just saved have no Adobe pdf icon appearing next to it. Instead, its document type is merely "File". When I tried opening it with Adobe reader, I got another dialogue box as below:
The dialogue box's text is as follows:
Acrobat could not open [file name] because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).
To create an Adobe PDF document, go to the source application. Then print the document to Adobe PDF.
I do not know why the file is supposedly corrupted because it works well on other computers and it can be printed as well. Does anyone know how I can solve this problem? It's really urgent and I desperately need to print my PDF files for my lessons and exams (I'm a student). It was uploaded on my school's website and PDF is the only available format. This is the first time it has happened and I am getting really frustrated. And it is not only for this 1 file. Since the 16th, EVERY pdf file i've opened has encountered this problem. Which is why I need to know how to solve this. Thank you in advance.
Would appreciate it if someone can help answer this question. Admins or otherwise.
Additional info: Laptop is Toshiba Portege m900. Windows 7 OS.32-bit operating system. Singapore-based.

Dear user,
You are getting such output because you have checked ON the setting 'Print to file' in one of your previous prints. For resolving this issue, kindly uncheck option 'Print to file' present in bottom left corner of print dialog and then click on 'Print' (See attached image for reference).
Hope this will solve your problem.
Thanks

Adobe Acrobat Pro failed to print pdf file

I downloaded adobe acrobat pro and started the 30 trial version just a few minutes ago.
I could open files through adobe acrobat and convert word files to pdf, but when i tried converting a publisher file it could not go through. An error popped up which read "Adobe PDF printer failed to print pdf file".
The publisher file I am hoping to convert to pdf is a 21 page panorama article. It contains lots of images and a variety of font types.
I do not know other alternatives for solving this issue.
Your help will be very much appreciated.
Thank you!
Erik

It seems to be that Adobe Acrobat virtual printer is not properly installed on your PC or you are not selecting Adobe PDF printer to print PDF document. Checkout the below screen shot to see proper printer.
After trying this if you have same problem you may trt some other virtual printer that easily convert or print any file as PDF, you may checkout here.

Orarrp can't print pdf file directly to printer

oracle remote print utility (orarrp) can't print pdf file directly to printer.
we expect orarrp utility can handle ".rrpa" file (i.e. pdf file generated on the application server) by directly print the file to the client's printer, i.e. invoke the acrobat reader on the client side, display the the printer selection dialogue, after confirmation print the pdf file, then the acrobat reader close automatically nicely.
However we are disappointed as the acrobat reader startup and display the pdf file content but does not print and does not close.
After testing the problem several times, there are some findings:-
Finding (A):-
(a) for the success of direct printing of pdf file, a physical path must be provided; we have tried 2 methods:
1) using drag & drop to copy the pdf file directly to the browser
2) open pdf file in the browser directly using browser menu-->File-->Open.
(b) for the failure of direct printing, a virtual path is involved and we have also tried 2 methods:
1) when web.show_document() is used
2) enter the url to the URL bar of the browser,
eg. http://appsvr.com:7777/report/test_printout/APPSVR1094707.rrpa (this is a virtual path/url)
Finding (B):-
(a)when the physical path is used, a temporary pdf file is generated in the same directory where the rrpa file exists in the application server,
e.g. in application server: d:/printout/yyy.pdf is generated for d:/printout/xxx.rrpa when direct print occurs
(b) however when the virtual path is used, there is no such temp "pdf" file generated and direct print failed.
May be when virtual path is used, orarrp utility don't know where to generate the temp "pdf" so direct print doesn't occur.
So, anyone has similar experience or further queries or has solutions, please join.
Thanks for your attention.

Hi,
It is really late to give response this post. But still who ever refering to this post for the same issue this solution is useful for achieving same in background:

Printer not print pdf file

I have HP deskjet 1510 all in one printer. I have complete all requried things for installation. and i can print word file in my printer. but when i am doing same for pdf file it's not working. i will explain brief.
first i open pdf file.
then i am click on print button
in printer there is only show send to onenote 2010 and fax option.
i am trying those both but i get nothing.
pls help me.

Hi @pl157
I understand you can print from Word, but when printing from your PDF program you do not see the printer.
I suggest using the following steps to delete the printer from device and printers, and the driver from the server properties.
1. In the ‘Devices and Printers’ folder
2. Choose ‘Print server properties’.
Win XP – With no printer selected, click ‘File’ then ‘Server Properties’.
Windows Vista – With no printer selected, press ‘Alt’ then click ‘File’ then ‘Server Properties’.
Windows 7/8 and 8.1 – Select any printer in the ‘Devices and Printers’ folder and click ‘Print Server properties’ above.
3. Click on the ‘Drivers’ tab at the top of ‘Print server properties’ window
4. Choose the printer you want to uninstall and click ‘Remove’
5. Choose 'Remove driver only'
6. The next screen will give a warning, letting you know that deleting the driver package will remove it from the system. Click ‘Yes’ to say that you are sure you want to do this.
If documents are stuck in the print spooler, you may see an error, cancel any documents pending in the print queue, or try restarting the print spooler, then try to remove the driver from ‘Print server properties’ again. If it still won’t remove the package, restarting the computer and the printer should resolve this ‘in use’ error and allow the driver to be removed.
After the driver is removed, open Start > All Programs > HP folder > Printer folder > HP Setup and Software (or the printer icon).
The Setup and software screen will open and you can click on Connect a new printer.
If the issue persists let me know and I will do what I can to help.

Cannot Print PDF File from IE8 Beta 2

I recently installed Adobe Reader 9 and Internet Explorer 8 Beta 2 under Vista 32-bit. When a PDF file appears under IE8, I cannot print the file. The print command shows only a blank page. If I save the PDF file, open Adobe Reader 9 and open this PDF file, I can print the file correctly. Please advise if you have the same issue and possible fixes?
Thank you...

I have a similar problem. I have Adobe Reader 9 and IE8 Beta 2 on Vista Ultimate, and other pdf drivers as well. When I try to print to any pdf driver in IE8 B2 I get "Access Denied" message box, then when I click OK I guest a script error on line 2037, Char 1, unspecified error, code 0, URL: res//ieframe.dll/preview.js. It occurs with all the pdf print drivers I have including ScanSoft PDFCreate, Quicken PDF printer, and DocuCom PDF printer. If I do print preview and then print, there is no response.
Debugging java scripts is more than I want to get into. Any ideas?

Print to PDF Issue

From Word 2010, when printing to the Adobe PDF printer (Acrobat 10.1.6), some users are experiencing an issue where the log file is created but the PDF document is not. THe log file contains two lines:
THe operation COmpleted successfully
Pipe:\\.\pipe\PMtoDistiller_ID_165:Microsoft Word - Test
I can print to file, create a PS file, and successfully create the PDF using Distiller.
Acrotray.exe seems to be running on the machine.
Has anyone seen this before? What would cause it?
Thanks.

I appologize I wrote Adobe reader, but it's adobe standard 6.0. And like a I
said I can create PDF's normally in all other situations and programs except for this one

Print Booklet Bleed Issue in CS6

When I try to print the file as a booklet, the left and right bleeding of some pages does not appear on themselves; however, they appear on the next spread.
The spread goes like this, with some objects exceeding the pages for bleeding:
When I print as a booklet, the preview goes like this:
Front and Back Covers; their left and right bleed do not show...
...but instead, they reach the next spread. These blue stripes in the left and right are the continuation of the covers above.
And it keeps happening with other pages that need bleeding. The top and bottom bleed are fine.
I tried changing many options in the print booklet dialogue box, even in the printer setup itself.
It may be that I have built the spreads wrong too I am still thinking if these 2 and 21 pages are necessary to exist in the file, since they are only blank. (though I had tried deleting them too, and the issue still exist)
I looked everywhere for a solution, maybe I don't know the right terms to search for this problem...
I also noticed that everything goes well while using the Export (to PDF) command.
The reason I'm using the booklet option is to have a document with the pages in an order ready for print and staples,
while maintaining the 1 to 22 sequence to use in the web.
It would be terrible creating another document and change the page numbers manually.
Hope somebody knows how to make it.

Hi Mikey!
My bad, sorry: actually there're 24 pages counting the covers and the 2 blank pages. (1-22 is the numbering for the inside content).
Even changing the page numbers won't correct the bleed.
Deciding to do something new, I isolated the pages, which first were Facing Pages.
After making a end with the spreads, the Booklet option seemed to function normally with the document bleed.
The problem is that I still would have to change the margins of the pages manually,
since they are not spreads anymore and now there's no inside/outside margins, but left/right instead.
If I could understand why I can't print the spreads as booklet would be so much better...

Print report file path in footer

The VI in the picture worked fine when I selected standard report (except that I couldn't save to file). I changed to HTML and it moved my footer page number to the top of the page and put the path to the printing temp file on the bottom of the page. Why? All I did was change to HTML and add the save at the end.

Hey Mike,
It may not technically be a footer, but it appears at the bottom of the page, and the page number that should be the footer is at the top. I originally used the exaprom pdf VIs to create the datasheet. Late last year I had some problems that appeared to be related to those VIs (or the DLL). I don't recall what the issue was, but I got it working. Now the program is crashing on start up and I don't know why. I am getting an access violation exception error. I sent the dump files to NI, but in the mean time decided to try native NI VIs to accomplish the task. Creating the report was working fine until I switched to HTML format so that I could save it.
