Problems with print to pdf with Acrobat Pro 9 and FireFox 8

***The page I am using for my base is: http://blogs.adobe.com/digitalpublishing/2010/12/google-ebooks.html
***I have Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro and FireFox 8 installed.
The problem with FireFox is when I select a part of a web page and try to print that selected text the first line gets chopped, if the text is small the first line might even be missing completely. Perhaps it is a margin issue but not sure how to modify this.
I know I am not being very clear but if anybody has any ideas or would like further info please let me know.
Thank you.

I suspect if you do the same process with a print to paper, you will get the same result. I got the same result with SeaMonkey, but IE8 printed the full font to a PDF. That would suggest it is not Acrobat, but the browser. As I said, suggests, so be careful about drawing your conclusions.

"Print to PDF" w/ Acrobat Pro 8 on Mac 10.6

I have the following:
MacBook Pro running OS X 10.6.3
Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional
Customer support told me to post my question here, so this is what I am doing.
I have a 800+ page pdf file open in Acrobat 8 Pro. I want to "print" several non-consecutive pages from that file to another pdf file. So, for example, when want to print pages 170, 171-175, 186-197, I select file>print, then type in these selected pages. Then I change the printer selector to "Adobe PDF 8" (Note that this name has an exclamation point icon in front of it, which to me is a red flag). When I hit "print" to create the new pdf, the job is sent to my printer where it sits as paused. I can't get it to "print to pdf".
I tried printing to pdf from the web but ran into the same problem.
I have used Acrobat on Windows for years and I know that I should be able to do what I am trying to do. Not sure why I can't do it. Read a post about Snow Leopard blocking the pdf printer, but not sure if that is correct. If it is correct, there has to be some work-around that will allow me to efficiently do what I want to do. Or is there something known that Mac support can do to help me?
This is such a basic function of Acrobat I can't believe that there is not some way to do it. But if there is not some way to do it, it will be VERY disappointing.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

Will this help you:

I can't print a PDF in Acrobat Pro anymore

Up until very recently, I had no problem printing a PDF on my Canon while in Acrobat Pro on my Mac Pro running 10.7.5. I'm running Acrobat Pro 11.0.07. This is just making me crazed.
In my Google research travels:
I've tried printing as an image. No luck.
I do not have any other printers set up in my system preferences.
I've tried removing any protection. I've tried sanitizing the document.
I am able to print if I open the PDF in Preview.
What the bleep has Adobe gone and done? Does anyone have any suggestions?

This just started happening to me today. Did you ever get this solved?

Printing a PDF file from Chrome and Firefox - Image missing

I created about 20 marketing sheets for work using the same default settings and a template. They contain several inserted images of drawings and floor plans on each sheet (saved individually). When I try to print a couple of different files directly from the Chrome viewer or the Firefox viewer, it removes one of the images I inserted into my pdf. There are about four of 20 sheets that I am having this issue with. It does show when I view it in IE's viewer though and also when I download the file and open from my downloads. For ease of use, I really need to have it show when viewed in Chrome and Firefox. Any ideas?

Make sure you're opening the file using the Adobe plugin, not the built-in
PDF plugins of these browsers:

After clean install cannot print to pdf with Acrobat 8 Pro

I recently had to do a clean install on my desktop computer. Is there some way I can print to pdf with my Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro, which was working fine prior to the clean install. I am aware Adobe no longer supports this version, but isn’t this program able to function without being updated? Want to print pdf files from websites and Microsoft office. Am running Windows 7 Ultimate OS.

Hi jadbe,
Windows 7 is not a tested platform for Acrobat 8.

Problem with printing a PDF

Hi All,
I'm developing a web application written in J2EE that uses Java Reporting Component (JRC) to display crystal reports from some filters recovered from a jsp and passed to a report .rpt previously designed and invoked just at runtime.
I have a problem with printing a PDF:
I want, after entering the filters in a jsp, to print a report in PDF format (WORD) without opening it
with Adobe Reader (Microsoft Word). The class of API JRC used for export is ReportExportControl.
Can anyone help me?
I wish a great day to You all.

Hi Ted Ueda,
sorry for the delay of my answer.
I understand very well the problems related to security.
With the following code that I used to produce a report (PDF) at runtime,
is the PDF created on the server and then sent to the client, or is it directly created on the client as PDF
from RTF previously realized?
ReportExportControl exportControl = new ReportExportControl();
String report = report path;
ReportClientDocument reportClientDoc = new ReportClientDocument();
reportClientDoc.open(report, OpenReportOptions._openAsReadOnly);
Object reportSource = null;
reportSource = reportClientDoc.getReportSource();
//The method setConnectionProperties() stores all the connection parameters in the collection
//ConnectioInfos
ConnectionInfos connInfos = setConnectionProperties(request, reportClientDoc);
exportControl.setEnableLogonPrompt(false);
exportControl.setEnableParameterPrompt(false);
exportControl.setReportSource(reportSource);
exportControl.setDatabaseLogonInfos(connInfos);
//Single method to pass parameters to Crystal Reports. Using classes ParameterFieldController and
//ParameterFieldDiscreteValue
setReportParametersValue(reportClientDoc, reportParameters, subReportParameters);
ExportOptions exportOptions = new ExportOptions();
//Set the export format (PDF)
exportOptions.setExportFormatType(ReportExportFormat.PDF);
PDFExportFormatOptions PDFExpOpts = new PDFExportFormatOptions();
exportOptions.setFormatOptions(PDFExpOpts);
exportControl.setExportOptions(exportOptions);
exportControl.setExportAsAttachment(true);
try {
      exportControl.getHtmlContent(request, response, getServletConfig().getServletContext());
} catch (ReportSDKExceptionBase e) {
throw new ApplicationException("error code", ": error message"); }
As, however, I predicted in my previous message about the direct printing on the client,
I read about ActiveX, but I don't know how to use them.
I read this information in the 'Crystal Reports for Eclipse Developer Guide' about "printMode" attribute:
"In ActiveX print mode, an ActiveX control is downloaded to the client machine and the report is send directly to the printer...."
The ActiveX alternative is a java applet that runs on the client and takes the pdf from the server and prints directly onto the clients through the commands that I used in the DOS command line:
1)     AcroRd32.exe /p /h FILENAME
where
/p = print
/h = hide window
to print the report and
2)     tkill AcroRd32
to close Adobe Reader, because it doesn't end automatically after printing and the command /h is used just to minimize the process.
I hope you can give me advice because I need to print directly on the client. Thank you

Can't print to pdf with Acrobat 7.1.0 in Vista

I am unable to print to pdf with Acrobat 7.1.0 in Windows Vista. I used to be able to, now all of a sudden that functionality is gone. I haven't knowingly done any upgrades since the last time I successfully printed to pdf, but I do have autoupdates enabled, so I can't say what Microsoft may have been up to recently. When printing to pdf from Internet Explorer 7, the window simply closes. A printer icon shows up in the system tray but registers 0 print jobs and soon disappears. When printing to pdf from Word (2003), Word crashes with a series of message boxes saying something about attempting recovery. Any suggestions?

AcroTray is running. Thanks for asking that question, as this is one thing that I have disabled on computers running XP, since disabling it in XP doesn't adversely affect my limited use of Acrobat in any way. I have not disabled it with Vista. I tried printing to file, and that also caused the window to close. I happened to have a second IE7 window open when attempting to print to file, and it did not close, so it only affects the active window. I don't know if that helps at all; when a program crashes, I typically observe it take with it all open windows associated with that program, so the fact that this is only closing the active window seems potentially useful to me in my ignorance of what is the root cause.

Getting errors printing to PDF with Acrobat 8 in Leopard

I get the following error when trying to print to PDF in Acrobat 8 under 10.5:
"No %%BoundingBox: comment in header"
What does this mean and how do I fix it?
I have updated to 10.5.4 and Acrobat 8.1.2 with the same results. The error remains the same in the PDF print queue, though the job actually disappears now that I upgraded Acrobat. The jobs remained in the queue before, they simply stopped the queue but remained.

When do you get the error, exactly? This doesn't sound like an Acrobat
error. Are there any clues (like a title bar, something active in the
doc) what is putting out the message?

Print only cursor-selected area of a PDF in Acrobat Pro, just as it is psbl to do in a browser

Hi
I want to print only cursor-selected area of a PDF in Acrobat Pro. That could be both text and images, which are in my selection. Just as it is psbl to do in a browser. Is it possible in Acrobat PRO?
I am using the latest Acrobat Pro 11.0.9

Thanks for your effort but this again clearly does NOT answer my question. I do see a particular problem and that is that I might want to select text and images over a range of multiple pages. In a doc of 20 pages I might want to make a single selection of the text starting PRECISELY at the MIDDLE of page 2 and then continue dragging my selection all the way to PRECISELY the MIDDLE of page 15, thereby selecting all text and images within the precise range of my selection. That is some 13 pages there and I want to print out ONLY THAT selection of text and images. And in that case I cannot use your suggestion with the marquee zoom. Do you get me?

Fillable form created with Acrobat Pro and sent to iPad by email.

I Create a Fillable form in Acrobat Pro and emailed it to an iPad. I loaded the PDF into Acrobat Reader for iOS. The file is opened, all fields filled and then it is emailed. So far so good. I then exit reader iOS. Later when I come back in and open the file the fields are still filled. If I do this same process on a windows PC Acrobat reader functions exactly the same but will not save the data in the form when the application is exited. This is exactly what I want. How do I get Reader iOS to perform in this manner? It is imperative that the fields in this form be empty every time I open it on the iPad.
THanks

If I open your Form with Reader XI, modify it, then close it, I am prompted to Save. If I select “Don’t Save”, then, of course, the modification is not saved. If I select “Save”, the modification is saved. So it does not appear that any logic has been embedded into the form that clears the modifications prior to Save. Its possible that older versions of Reader do not permit Save, however, a user using the current version of Reader: Reader XI would need to be trained to select the “Don’t Save” button for your workflow to be valid.
With the Mobile Reader, save is implicit. So there is no prompt to Save on close. The modifications are saved automatically.
If you want to start with a reset form each time it is opened, there are a couple alternatives:
Users can duplicate the unfilled form and work with the duplicate each time, thereby leaving the original in its unfilled state.
You can embed some instructions into the form that clear its contents on form open. Note that with this option, the prior content (pre-clear) will still be in the file even though it is not presented to the user. This would be a problem if multiple users were using the same device and the form content were sensitive.
I’ve sent you a version of your form with option 2. implemented that you can try.

When I print to PDF using Acrobat 11 Pro from any application the acrobat Reader does not launch automatically. Associations are correct. Thx for your help, Bruce

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/

Printing a PDF with Separations

MAC OS 10.6.8
I have a simple illustrator file I'm trying to print to PDF with separations. The file is black with a spot color. When I select the Acrobat 7.0 for the printer it keeps looking for an actual printer. What am I missing here?

Works for me in CS4. Did you set mode to Seperations (Host based)
