Unable to print a pdf in Adobe Reader 9

Hi! I have created an eBook in Adobe Pro 8 that is 148,300 KB. This .pdf was sent to a client, who is having issues printing it. They are trying to print it using Adobe Reader 9. Some sheets come out blank, while others only print the watermark. The document has been optimized to reduce the size (file is 131,744 after being optimized), but the issue still persists. Printing has been attempted in smaller portions, because this is such a large document, but htat does not resolve the issue. I have to note that, I have not had any issues printing with Adobe Pro 8. Are there any known issues when printing a document this large from Adobe Reader? If so, what needs to be done to correct this?
Thanks in advance for any insight you may offer!

Windows 7 Professional is our OS...I can print from my machine but it's a different printer. I'll try un and reinstalling her printer driver.
The error message just says "This document cannot be printed" or something generic like that.
Thanks for your help!

Printing a PDF in Adobe Reader v8 does not print watermark

In our office we have PDFs created with Adobe Acrobat Professional version 7 that have a lighten watermark which say "confidential". These PDF documents print fine with Adobe Reader 7.0.8. Our office has now converted to Adobe Reader 8.1.1. When you open the PDF in Adobe Reader v8.1.1 the watermark displays on the screen but when you print the document the document prints without the watermark.
I have checked the knowledge base and can't find this issue. The document has no trouble printing, it just doesn't display the watermark. I have tested Adobe Reader versions 8.0, 8.1.1 and the new version 8.1.2 all display the watermark when you open the Reader, but none of them print the watermark. I have gone back and verify and the watermark does print on Adobe Reader v7.0.8.
If anyone has a similar issue or solution please let me know.
Thanks,
Mary Mendoza

I have the same problem. The watermark does not print out even though I can see it in the print preview. Anybody...?

Unable to print to pdf after adobe update

Hi All,
After an adobe acrobat last week, I am unable to print word documents as pdf. I get the following error message:
Invalid "ADOBE PDF" printer properties:
Do not change spooler settings.
Please select "Print directly to the printer" option (from adobe PDF printer properties "Advanced" tab).
Could somebody please help
Thanks

I have a similar problem. I have adobe 9.0 pro and word 2007. Everything was fine until a couple of days ago. Now when I try to create a pdf, it doesn't work. When I try to print to pdf I get the following error
Adobe PDF Settings file read error in :
C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Adobe PDF\Settings\Standard.joboptions
I have tried repairing the program, recovery to an earlier date, updating, removing and reinstalling both adobe and word 2007 and still get the same error. Anyone have an idea what I should do next. I have gone into the add-ins and adobe is enabled.
Thanks, I hope someone has an idea.

Why is Preview unable to search some pdfs that Adobe Reader has no problem searching?

In the last couple months, I've noticed that Preview is unable to search some (but not all) pdfs. These are clearly digitized journal articles, recently published. Since this didn't make sense to me, I opened the documents with Adobe Reader and found they were searchable using Adobe.
What is going on? I'd prefer to use Preview, since I'd always preferred its search function and like its annotation tools (specifically, the box outline tool I use to identify chunks of text). Should I just give up on Preview and switch to Adobe?

I can search that document in both Safari and Preview.
Back up all data.
In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

Printing a PDF in Adobe Reader X

I have been having this problem since updating to AR10. I open an emailed *.pdf and click on "print". The file is converted to a *.prn file,,, but will not print. I have tried to print through "advanced" and "Print Image", but no dice. The files go to vapor. Nada, nothing in the printer que either.
Is my AR10 corrupted? SHould I uninstall and reinstall? Any help will be appreciated.
Joel

I tried everything, including updating drivers, but "uncheck Print to File" is the killer suggestion. Thanks much.

Cannot print PDFs in Adobe Reader 11

When I try to print a PDF using Adobe Reader 11, it says that it cannot print because no pages have been selected for print. Here's some more information:
What I have done:
printed a PDF through a web browser. This worked fine.
saved that same PDF, reopened it in Adobe Reader, tried to print. It did not work.
opened PDFs from emails and tried to print. That did not work.
tried "Print As Image" as some forums have suggested, but I cannot because that option is greyed out.
Computer history:
my computer had a virus 2 weeks ago. Before the virus, everything printed fine. I'm guessing that perhaps I had a different version of Adobe Reader on my computer before then, and that the newly installed one (post-virus) is the problem. But, I'm not sure.
Thanks for your help. This is so strange! If it makes a difference, I use a Brother HL-2270DW wireless printer.

Hi Vikrantt,
The printer is a Brother HL-2270DW. It says this at the end when I look at the details on the network device page: [008092b6bcfa]. I'm not sure what type the driver is, but I do see that the driver version is 1.9.0. How can I figure out the type?
Thanks,
Kate

Cannot print from IE11 with adobe reader 9.4.2

When we open pdf files within IE11 and try and print, the printer properties box becomes unresponsive.
we need to crash IE to resolve it, but are unable to print.
we cannot upgrade Adobe Reader as we have another application which doesn't work with anything higher.
I saw there was a workaround for adobe acrobat, but we need a fix for reader if possible
changing the setting in adobe to open the pdf in it's own window is not a solution for us either

No difference in output using the latest version.
We are printing to Xerox WorkCentre 7425/7435 printers. When printing from a full version of Adobe Acrobat the advanced button of the Print Driver popup has check options for Marks under Marks and Bleeds while printing from Adobe Reader does not.

Hi bengaunt ,

ya downloaded the trial version of acrobat. I guess it was free earlier and never faced a problem.
Acrobat has NEVER been free. Reader (formerly called "Acrobat Reader") has always been free, but the Creation/Editing software has always had a price tag.
