Printing with encrypted PDF

I created a form (about 4MB with FormCalc scripts)with Adobe LiveCycle Designer 7 and could print it as a PDF from Adobe Reader. However, when I decided to include PDF Security using a password to restrict printing etc., I could no longer print the form as a PDF. I removed the PDF Security but it didn't help.
Is there a way to "recover" from this condition?

Having problem with the printer with type "PDF Publisher"

Hi,
We are having problem with printing PDF reports with print style as "PDF Publishrer". The concurrent program errors out after it generates the report. But when we try that with style "PORTRAIT" then it prints successfully. We have tried with a number of printers and a number of reports. The results are same. So my understanding is it has something to do with the printer configuration from the EBS side.
Any help in this regard is highly appreciated.

Print an Encrypted PDF

IN Leopard I could choose the PDF option in the Print Window and select Save as Encrypted PDF. This is gone in Snow Leopard. Does anyone know how to make an encrypted PDF without additional software? Or to edit that menu to include the Encrypted PDF option.
I did find you can do it in Preview via the Save As command, but I would like to maybe print a page from Firefox as have it become an encrypted PDF without going into Preview as a second step.
x-.-x

It allows you to assign a password for opening the document, but I do not see an encryption option. Maybe it is encrypted when using the password option. I am not sure.
Thank you for pointing out the security options. Good to know those are there.

Print with Adobe PDF printer driver from Word: Stripes in images

Hello,
I use Acrobat 8 Professional (Version 8.1.3) on Windows XP SP3 (german version). I'd like to create a PDF out of a Word document by printing with the "Adobe PDF" printer driver. I have a problem with an image containing large unicolored areas: In the PDF there are recognizeable stripes in the colors of the image. This is when viewing the PDF with Acrobat 8 Professiona, when importing a page containung such an image into Photoshop, and when printing such an image.
The image is an RGB TIF, but I tried it with a CMYK TIF as well as with an RGB BMP. The reault - when printed out of Word - is the same. If I print the same image to a PDF from InDesign, then everything is fine, no stripes.
Does anybody know how to optimize this?
Best regards,
Christian

Sorry, I should have mentioned this, of course. Well the document is a DOC (because it was prepared by co-workers with Word 2003). I use Word 2007, when I opened the DOC Word switched to "compatability mode" (not sure about the exact English term, I work with German versions). But even when saving the document under a new name, I kept it as a DOC, so my co-workers would be able to open it again at their computers with Word 2003.
My Acrobat is already version 8.1.6 and because I always install Windows Updates that the automatic update service offers, I guess my Word 2007 is also up to date.
But sure, if I can be of any other help, let me know...
Best regards,
Christian

PB printing with Adobe PDF, missing text, different colors

Hello,
I use Adobe Reader 9, I tried with the latest updates: the same
On some pdf docs I print missing parts of the entire text.
And I have also some areas of color deviations between what I have on the screen and on paper. I tested different printers and PC: the same.
It works with Foxit reader. What makes that it does not work with Adobe Reader? Have you ever encountered such a pb?
(I can not keep Foxit Reader on my business PC)
thank you for your answers
Nico

Could you please test this with Reader X. See if that works.
Here's the link to download Reader X : http://get.adobe.com/reader/?promoid=BUIGO

How do I do 2 sided printing of a PDF document?

How do I do 2 sided printing with a PDF document?
I am using a HP Photosmart 6520 printer.

If you go into "properties" of the print dialog, do you not see the option to print both sides? If not, have to checked to be sure you have the latest print driver from HP? If you installed the one that came with the printer (probably on a disk with the printer), it's probably not the most recent driver.

Acrobat X and Encrypted PDFs

Hello -
We have Acrobat X (10.0.3) Pro (the version you can create PDFs with) and are having trouble with at least one machine.
There is an encrypted PDF that will cause Acrobat to give an error. (encrypted meaning, cannot edit/change the document)
There is no password to open and use it.
When opening the document we get:
Adobe Acrobat has stopped working
A problem caused the pgoram to stop working correctly. Please close the program.
Other PDF's work, if you open a PDF and go to Tools (upper right) then Protection and Encrypt. All the options are grayed out. Is there a way to "install" encryption options?
I have removed Acrobat X, rebooted, reinstalled, reboot. Still isn't working. On machines that can open this document, then do have Encryption options.
Thanks, Nick

Anyone have a thought on this, as to what's missing causing Acrobat X to not work with Encrypted PDF's? or be able to encrypt any of it's own?

How do I print to "Adobe PDF" with an encrypted pdf?

I've created a form in livecycle and I want the security to be set up as such:
1) A password is required to edit the form in LiveCycle AND
2) People can print the pdf to "Adobe PDF"
I've been able to create livecycle password access, but when I put a password on the LiveCycle Access (currently: Printing Allowed: High resolution, Changes Allowed: Filling in form fields and signing existing signature fields), I get this error when I try to print it to PDF:
%%[ ProductName: Distiller ]%%
This PostScript file was created from an encrypted PDF file.
Redistilling encrypted PDF is not permitted.
%%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%
%%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %%
How can I edit my form so I can do both.

It´s quite some time I was solving this.. but as I already wrote and I can somehow remember(as far I´m not working on this platform for 3 years): printing 150dpi is one thing - it´s printing like a simple pic. Printing in hi-res works in completely different way - pdf must be redistilled with pdf distiller or how it was called. Means, there must be additional step before printing the pdf form. Cant remember the details.

Excel sheets with defined print areas to pdf

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 problem when PDF is sent to the printer with certain fonts - missing text

I'm running into a printing problem when PDFs containing certain characters of the Calibri font are used. The text in large sections of the PDF is missing on the paper version, but the text is there on the screen. It's also happened when the PDFs we created were e-mailed out to a client and printed on their printer. The problem is not present when printing directly from the programs (Microsoft Word, Excel, Visio, etc.). I've been trying to get tech support from Adobe on this, but every time I call they apologize and say they will call back in 4-6 hours with an answer. Same result each time, no call back. If anyone from Adobe is listening, it's case number 184891587. The font appears as an embedded subset when I look at the document properties. Sometimes deleting one or two Characters allows for larger text blocks to be printed - i.e. removing a long dash in bold from the heading of a paragraph makes the paragraph reappear when printed to paper from PDF. In all cases the PDF appears correct on the screen. Printing as an image allows the text to appear, but the image quality isn't acceptable for small text, even at the 600 dpi setting on the printer. If the PDF is sent out by e-mail, we do not have control over the end-user's printer setup anyway, so we need this to work in all cases.
The setup/process I'm using is as follows:
Windows 7 Professional SP1 64-Bit
Microsoft Office 2013 - problem is present when printing documents from Word, Excel or Visio. Even other variations on documents.
I've tried Acrobat versions 11.0.0 to 11.0.5 as well as Acrobat Pro 11.0.0 and 11.0.1. Same Result
Printing to Adobe PDF as the printer, from the third party application
Printing to a Xerox printer from PDF using Acrobat - Text missing
Client prints to Konica printer - Text missing
I print to the wide-format Ricoh (which also does 11x17) and the text is present.
Is there something I'm missing? Is the entire font not getting embedded into the PDF file? I noticed that rolling back to a much older version of the Calibri font (1.02 compared to 5.72) makes the problem mostly go away, but it's not completely gone. Is it possible the font is too large to be completely embedded? Where can I go from here?

Success! At least for now. It looks like my problem was fixed with Adobe's most recent update, 11.0.06. From the release notes:
PDF creation
Added support for Lotus Notes 9.
Added support for WebCapture in IE 11.
Added support for conversions from AutoCAD 2013.
3652540 A blank pdf is created for files having hidden visual style.
3601108 Flow Chart converts as a multicolored square.
3654345 Word documents missing parts of images in conversion to PDF.
3654572 Temporary file size increases when creating pdf by combining multiple files into one PDF.
3670155 PDF file created with Distiller XI prints incorrectly to some printers. (Emphasis mine)
3599407 Checkbox check marks do not appear in these files.
3663233 IE Web Capture in localized OS: Icons and drop-down menu items are missing and conversion dialog is not localized.
3651931 Chrome Only: Few web pages when converted to pdf from Chrome plugin doesn’t show up the Save As dialog.
3597910 EPM Mode On: Web capture is not working on Windows 8-32 bit when cache folder is missing.
3610644 Firefox 23.0: With Firefox version 23.0 (latest), the WebCapture icon shows up very dim as if it is disabled.
3650244 ODA falis to convert DWG files to PDF for large files.
I don't know if that's definately what solved the problem, but it sure sounds similar and this is the update that made the printing problem go away. We can't get the PDFs to fail at this point with our printers, even with Calibri 5.72. I'll come back to thread if we have printing problems at the end-user locations.

InDesign PDF printing with errors but only in browser

Hello,
I've created a PDF poster and uploaded it to dropbox and put a link to it on my website. I want people to be able to open the PDF in the browser and print it immediately without having to download it. Unfortunately when the link to the PDF is clicked on and the poster printed, some of the objects within the PDF have moved - some items near the top seem to have shifted downwards while others have stayed where they are. However when I print the file direct from Adobe reader, this doesn't happen, it prints normally.
This is what the poster should look like, and what it looks like when printed from Adobe reader:
This is what the poster looks like when its printed from a browser:
As you can see something strange has happened to some of the objects near the top of the page, they appear to have been 'pushed down' in some way. We've tried saving the PDF as various different versions and with a variety of different settings, and although occasionally this might change the look of the printed document - the errant objects may move to different locations, this never solves the problem.
N.B. I've had the same problem when printing from some PDF readers other than Adobe reader.
Any help would be much appreciated, thank you for your time.

Thank you for responding!
The browser doesn't open the reader, it just opens the PDF in a new window. This is the case in all browsers i've tried. But I should add that when the PDF first opens in this new window, it appears error free. It is only when print is clicked, and the print preview appears that the errors show up.
In response to your points about transparency (which I don't know about) and an interactive button, the PDF was created in InDesign just using what I assume where the default settings. So if I were to recreate the PDF in InDesign, with these complex functions disable would this solve the problem? If so could you tell me how to do that?
Thanks very much for your help,

Gray becomes green when a Adobe 8.1.0 PDF is printed with Acrobat 9 Pro ...?

Hello,
when the PDF file which was created with Adobe 8.1 is printed with Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro the gray is as it should be.
If the same file is printed to the same printer (same settings) with Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro on another Workstation in the same office the gray becomes kind of green.
I noticed the grayscale Option in the Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro was set to Dot Gain 20% instead of Gray Gamma 2.2, so i changed it but the gray still gets printed as a green.
I really would appreciate any help!

Martha:
Acrobat 9 installation is fraught with problems. All four writers who tried to install it at one customer location had problems getting the A'9 to work properly after installation -- and the problems were all slightly different.
And so too were the responses given by Adobe support. In one case A'Support recommended running a cleanup tool, in one case it insisted that the program should install with the same serial number as the Tech Comm Suite that putatively includes A'9, and in another case it simply "punted" and gave the I.T. folks a new, separate serial number to circumvent the otherwise unresolvable installation problems.
Apparently we can add sending people with A'9 problems to the FrameMaker forum to that list...
Cheers & hope this helps,
Riley
