Problems with white text & transparency from Photoshop to Acrobat

Question

Hello Adobe Community!
What I am doing: I have a design I created in Photoshop CC. This design has a transparent background. I am attempting to save this as a PDF in photoshop so I am able to open it in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro and print it on any color paper with only the design showing
Issue: When I open the saved PDF in Acrobat. I can only see my white text and a faint outline of part of my design, and not even all the rest of the design.
Then when I print it on color paper only the text shows up (with black stroke) on the paper along with my crop marks I made in the PS design. also when printed on color paper the text become transparent for some reason (Showing the paper color through the stroke), even though the text was made white and the PDF document shows white text
Here are my steps:
1.Create Design
2.Save as..
3.Save as type - Photoshop PDF
4.[] As a copy, unchecked
5.[Check] Layers, Checked
6.OK
7.General Settings -
Adobe PDF Preset: [High Quality Print]
Standard: None
Compatability: Acrobat 9/10 (PDF 1.7+)
Preserve Photoshop Editing Capabilities, Checked
Embed page Thumbnails, Unchecked
Optimize for fast web preview, Checked
View PDF after saving, Unchecked
8.Compression -
Compression: None
The rest of the settings are default.
9.Open PDF from file
10.Print with default settings
11. Look at my butchered design in print
12.Continued Frustration
So for some reason its like Acrobat is 'Ignoring' the white in my design? I'm so confused and I've been at this for hours, going through forum post after forum post and it seems like i'm doing everything correctly but I'm not getting anywhere with it.
I hope I added all necessary information, this is my first time posting here.
Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong? Would someone mind looking at the file? any help would be very much appreciated.
Note:Also I inverted the entire design making it all black instead of all white. followed same exact steps as above, and it printed perfectly. My confusion/frustration continues.

You wrote: . . . also when printed on color paper the text become transparent for some reason (Showing the paper color through the stroke), even though the text was made white and the PDF document shows white text.
You can't print white using an inkjet or laser printer because there isn't white ink or toner in your printer.
The white needed to come from your paper which should be white.
All printers and presses use CMYK inks or toner.
What is the definition of White? C=0, M=0, Y = 0, K=0  so not a single droplet of any ink is being placed on the paper in any area that is supposed to be white..
Of course the color of the paper will show in areas where there is no ink.
When you see something white that is printed on a dark paper it using a special spot color Opaque White on a offset press..
(there is a single inket model from Epson that can print an ink that appears to be white.  The model is $7,000 by the way. the [white] ink is $350, all the other inks are only $90)
From the Epson website:
Epson UltraChrome HDR White Ink introduces an all-new Organic Hollow Resin Particle Technology, which forces light to randomly scatter, producing the illusion of seeing the color white.
Notice that even Epson only claims it produces the illusion of white.
The only way around this issue is to print on White paper and print the "color of the paper" everywhere else on the paper that doesn't have your design elements.
