Setting up "Download Create PDF Desktop Tool"

I am setting up "download create PDF desktop tool" from Acrobat.com. When I reach the configure internet port pop-up, it tells I do not have access to the printer - try a different username or password.
I am using the only user name and password I know.

Hi MosheS,
Since you have a PDF Pack subscription, you can create PDF files either via the web interface at cloud.acrobat.com, or from within Adobe Reader. But regardless of where you create the PDFs, they are stored in your online Acrobat.com account (but you may download them to your computer, of course). You can access them by logging in to cloud.acrobat.com.
If you're still having trouble converting files or setting up the PDF Desktop Printer, I am happy to help you here. Or, if would like to talk to someone, you can find the contact info here: Acrobat.com
Best,
Sara

Adobe Create PDF desktop

I can not print docs to PDF after installing the Adobe Create PDF desktop.

Hi Mark ,
Instead of a physical printer, you can select Adobe PDF in almost any Windows or Mac OS application.
Follow the steps mentioned below.
Open a file in a Windows application.
Choose File > Print.
Choose Adobe PDF as the printer in the Print dialog box.
Click Print.
For info please refer to http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/print-to-pdf.html
Thanks!

Setting margins for "Create PDF from Clipboard"

I'm posting this because I could not find another question that dealt with my problem directly, but after A LOT of searching, and a few failed attempts, I did find the solution.
Problem: When creating a PDF from content copied to the clipboard from a webpage, everything on the page was way off-center, with almost no left margin.
Once the PDF was created, since there is no easy way to adjust page margins, the only way to center everything would have been one page at a time (for 24 pages), by dragging the page contents manually to the center of the page. I tried using the "Set Page Boxes" function, but I ended up with 24 blank pages. Yes, I could export the PDF as a Word document, and then reprint that Word document as a PDF, but I knew there had to be a simpler way.
Solution: When you create a PDF from a clipboard containing text (or in the case of the above document, text and images), Acrobat uses the settings for "Create PDF from Web Page."
Unfortunately, if you look up Convert clipboard content to PDF in Acrobat Help, it doesn't tell you that. AND the settings for "Create PDF from Web Page" are NOT included in the list of settings under Preferences > Convert to PDF. There is an HTML option in that list, but there are no editable settings for that file type (There are actually quite a few such file types listed there, and my question is, if there are no editable settings, why are they even listed under Preferences?). Batch Conversion of Text Files also uses the same settings.
So, here's how to do it:
Select File > Create > PDF from Web Page
Click on Settings
To adjust the default margins for new PDF files created from a clipboard containing text, select the Page Layout tab, and adjust the margins to your liking. Notice how small the Default right and left margins are... hence my problem.
Click on OK to save your new settings, and the simply Cancel out of the "Create PDF from Web Page" dialog box. If you read this page, it says you have to actually create at least one PDF file using the "Create PDF from Web Page" dialog in order for your settings to stick, but I never did, and my settings were saved just fine.
If you're copying basic text (or converting text files), that's all there is to it.
With web page content, there could still be a problem (as there was with this web page), if the content you've selected is not the full width of the web page. I think this has to do with the fact that web pages often use Content Style Sheets to format their page elements, and those styles are transferred when you copy that content to the clipboard. The PDF page margins are technically correct now, as you can see by the position of the image at the top of the page, but the text portion (at the bottom of the page) of the PDF only fills the same percentage of the text area (between the margins) as it did on the web page.
The only solution I have found if this happens, is to export the PDF as a Word document, and adjust the margins there. In the document I was working with in these examples, there were boatloads of different invisible subsections to the document, and each subsection had different settings for right and left indent, fonts, font sizes, etc., so there was a lot more to it than a simple 'copy & paste' type of procedure. Once I corrected all the different elements (and this one had a whole lot of weirdness going on), and then printed it as a new PDF, everything looked much better.
Hopefully this helps someone else find their answer much easier than I found mine
And of course, comments and suggestions are welcome.

Thanks for asking. Yes, with either the Crop tool or the Set Page Boxes tool, I could trim the page just fine, removing the excess from the right side, but as soon as I tried to add space to the left side, it just blanked out the whole page. It seemed like it should have worked, and maybe on a simple text file it would have. But that particular array of content proved to be most troublesome.
I also could have just cropped the page down to 6.5 x 11, and then centered it when I printed it.
My primary goal in searching for the answer, and my main reason for posting this, was for setting the margins for future documents (and to help others find those settings,too). Since I still had the web address, I could easily recreate the PDF once I figured out how to set the margins. Of course I didn't realize that there would still be problems once I got the settings right. Like I said, that particular web page seemed to have several unique difficulties.

Adobe Create PDF Desktop Printer

I have a 35 page pdf of construction plans for a project I am working on. I would like to print 6 of these pages into another pdf to send to my printer. When I select paper size ARCH D (24" x 36"), the pages are printed into a "file" file ..... there is no pdf or other designation and it is unreadable by Adobe. The origiinal 35 page set of plans is in 24 x 36 size.

Bill,
It tells me to create a printer on my desktop. My HP Photosmart D110 Series Printer/Scanner is all that shows up in the START/DEVISES & PRINTERS Box. This Acrobat Reader came with my laptop new, four months ago. Just back from overseas & installing now.
I need help w/ the "Configure Printer" Screen I can't find it anywhere except the example "Configuire Printer Port Screen."
Thanks man,

Latest download creates problems in tool bar and messages

After computer automatically updates latest from Thunderbird, I discover that right hand clicking of mouse on any item within Thunderbird email (including the tool bar) gives me a blurred pic of my whole email page. I cannot save, move, highlight, delete, tag, junk anything on Thunderbird emails. I also discovered that doing a systems restore before the update, puts all the emails and abilities back to normal. What is in the latest update from Thunderbird that is so destructive to my email page and how can I avoid updates?
Kindest regards
Marg

The latest Thunderbird is 31.4.0
TRy this:
Make hidden files and folders visible:
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Show_hidden_files_and_folders
Help > Troubleshooting Information
* click on 'Show Folders' button - a new window will open showing Profile folder.
* ''' Close thunderbird now - this is important '''
look for and delete these files.
* session.json
* localstore.rdf
Close window - top right X
Restart Thunderbird.
'''RE: Updates'''
If you do not want to receive updates you can switch this off, although it is not recommended as updates often include security fixes.
Tools > Options > Advanced > Update tab
select: Check for updates. but let me choose whether to install them
or
Never check for updates (not recommended security risk)

Hi nicola21283,
If you've used the CreatePDF Desktop printer to print a document to PDF, that PDF is stored automatically in your Acrobat.com online account. You can find your files by logging in to https://cloud.acrobat.com/files using your Adobe ID and password.
Please let us know how it goes!

Problems trying to get create pdf printer to work

I just subscribed to the create pdf solution specifically for the print to
pdf capability.
I use Windows 7 and installed the software OK (after several abortive
attempts due to various installation error messages).
I now have two printers created: Xerox Phaser 6120 PS (created to overcome
the installation errors) and Adobe Create pdf desktop printer.
If I print a file to the Xerox printer, it prompts for a file name but
creates a prn file, not a pdf file.
If I print to the Adobe create pdf desktop printer, it just sends the file
to the print queue and after a few minutes the print queue displays printer
error.
How can I get this to work? It used to be so simple with my old Adobe
Acrobat v6 on Windows XP. I have wasted so much time on this; it is so
frustrating!
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
David

Thanks, David.
That has fixed the problem.
It would be nice if the print to pdf facility actually prompted to provide a file name and location where you wanted the file to be stored, rather than putting it into a print queue, then disappearing., for it to upload it to the Adobe server from where you have to login and copy it back down to a pc again just wastes time and bandwidth.
But at least I can now do what I wanted, so many thanks.
Regards
David

Problems with CC DPS desktop tools

When I download CC DPS Desktop tools and I try to install it, the system tells me to update first Indesign CC with the update in indesign CC help menu, but the update voice is not selectable. How can I do?

I too am lost trying to install the DPS tools for InDesign CC (Windows). I have seen a downloadable patch that I can't apply, I have seen advice to run the update from the help menu, but there are no updates available, and I have tried downloadable installers that don't seem to do anything. I still don't have the DPS tools in my extensions!

How do I create a desktop Icon for Adobe create pdf?

How do I create a desktop icon for Adobe create pdf?

Hi, ken.
You can access ExportPDF from your computer more quickly in three ways:
You can download and install the CreatePDF Desktop Application. More info is here. With this application, you can drag PDF files onto a desktop icon and have those converted to Office files. (If you subscribe to the CreatePDF service, this application will also allow you to create PDF files.)
You can download and install the newest Adobe Reader and access the service using Reader's Tools Pane on right. Then, any time you have PDF open in Reader, you can (with a couple of clicks) convert that PDF to an Office file.
You can drag the webpage icon from your browser to your desktop. This will create a shortcut to the ExportPDF website on your desktop. Here are some instructions for doing that using Internet Explorer or Firefox.
Let us know if you have additional questions or issues.

I have a PC desktop and an iPad. I have a large library of PDF documents on my desktop that I would like to sync with my iPad. I would like to be able to download new PDF's and make edits on existing PDF's on either device and have those edits and new PDFs synced to the other device. I would also like to have my library available on the iPad even if there isn't a wifi connection (i.e., not on the cloud). Is that possible. I don't mind if I have to purchase a separate product or a product upgrade ect.

You can't use an external hard drive like you would with a computer.
You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)
When you first connect the USB flash drive, you will only see thumbnails of the pics on the iPad; you have to import the pic file to see the full size. With your large library of pics, you will have to do this repeateably and then delete pics so you don't exceed your memory capacity.

Part of .pdf doesn't show text when opened in firefox but does show when downloaded to the desktop

when I open this link within firefox the chart (page 3 on) doesn't open. When I download the .pdf to my desktop all the information is filled in.
http://www.tradestocksamerica.com/dsr-pdf/TheDailyStockReport_2013-02-25-Monday_Morning.pdf
i noticed on my laptop, where the entire contents of the .pdf is viewable, within Firefox - under
Firefox / Tools / Options / Applications / there is an app called JPS file whereas on the desktop this app does not appear

Have you researched the site you mentioned? I went to it and WOT gave me a red flag.
At this moment, we are aware of issues pertaining to PDF.js and we suggest installing the following add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/pdfjs/

Would like to download Adobe Create PDF Basic which I purchased 2/7/13.

I want to download Adobe Create PDF Basic to my windows 8 computer. I purchased it on 2/7/13 for $97.75 for another computer with Vista or windowss 7. HOW DO I DO THIS?

There's nothing to download. Just start using it!
For example, log in to http://createpdf.adobe.com/
or click TOOLS in Adobe Reader XI.
(There is an extra printer driver you can download and use, but it isn't needed for Word documents and such).
