When attempting to "print" to Adobe or create a pdf from a web page, the "print/pdf" result has a bunch of characters/jibberish on the page rather than recognizable letters/numbers
What is causing this?
You could open it in the XPS application and check print preview to see if it comes out as TSN suggests (and likely will). You can go to the printer properties and adjust the page size accordingly.
You can also use the cropping in Acrobat to size all the pages and then use the Protect>Remove Hidden option to remove the cropped area.

How do I add a "PDF printer" print to PDF so that I can create PDFs from any source I can print ?
How do I add a "PDF printer" print to PDF so that I can create PDFs from any source I can print ?
I am using ADOBE Reader X ThanksPat; using Windows you can create a "PDF printer" which is a virtual device that you can select when you want to create an Adobe PDF file from anything you normally would print to hardcopy. As an example if I were on a webpage article that spanned two or three pages so a screen capture wouldn't really work, if I had a "Adobe PDF Printer" I would select that as my default printer and then print the webpage article. Instead of the webpage article going to a real printer and producing hardcopy, the Adobe PDF printer would ask me for a file name and then "print" the file by creating an Adobe PDF file. Does that help ? Best regards, Doug

Acrobat crashes when creating a PDF from a web page
Whenever I ask Acrobat to create a PDF from a web page, it crashes halfway through the process. Here is an example from the BBC:-
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-19585341
Printing to PDF from the browser does not produce an accurate document. The font is too big, and most of the pictures do not appear.
I use Acrobat X Pro version 10.1.4.
This is a PC problem. On the Mac it works.The problem I mentioned is peculiar to Acrobat 10 and also to my PC. On a Mac I can create PDF's from webpages normally.
I also notice that when printing to PDF from Opera only the first page comes out. (Using Firefox all pages are printed to PDF.) -
Using Adobe Pro X I cannot create a PDF from a web page.
After a recent upgrade from a previous version of Firefox, I am now unable to create a PDF from a web page using the Adobe Pro toolbar on the web page. A "save as" box appears and then the conversion process dies. I can print the page using Adobe Pro as my printer and it works fine. I can create other docs with Adobe Pro. How do I fix this on my browser?
Thanks.

Why can I not create a PDF from a web page on my Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro on my new Windows 8 computer? It worked fine on my windows XP system?
Acrobat 8 is not compatible with Windows 8, for the simple reason it was
created much before it and Adobe could not participate the changes to the
OS that Microsoft implemented many years later on. You need to buy the
current version for compatibility. -
We are planning to Silent print a PDF from a web page using Flex. We are targeting Windows and Mac with Arcobat reader installed. I have tried using the AIR appliaction and it worked, But our requirement is NO INSTALL to the user machine for the silent printing. It is just from web page and silent printing to the default printer to the desktop/Laptop. Can anyone share your thoughts and experience with us. It will be very helpful..
For AIR : I tried the thread Re: AIR and PDF showing/silent printingHey CodeMonkey & Ross,
Did you either of you ever find a solution? I'm stuck too, it seems I can get remote printing on all these PDFs to work but it just prints a blank page since I've been using Javascript in the browser, not Adobe's (they are Engineering drawings that I do not have permission to edit so I can't just insert code into them but I need to make work instructions). I've been scouring the internet for hours now, it seems that this thread is the only relevant/useful one at this point. No one else was trying to achieve this for similar reasons to mine.
Thanks guys,

Acrobat Pro XI: Creating a PDF from a Web Page
When I try to create a PDF from a Web page using Acrobat XI, I get the Error Code "Nothing done" and "Authorization Failure", but it doesn't happen on all webistes. Does anyone know what could be causing this and how to fix it? I'm using the trial version of Acrobat Pro XI on a Mac. Same result with either Firefox or Safari.
Thanks.It's likely a HTTPS site or you have an authenticating proxy server where you are required to enter a password to acess the web page.

Sometimes when sending a mail it will go more often it won't go, it doesn't seem to be relevant to my geographic position and the message" a copy has been placed in your Outbox. The sender address" my email blah blah" was rejected by the server" . Any ideas?
Check the outgoing mail server setting. Make sure that your username and password are in there.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional. -

Can't scan as a pdf from my hp officejet 4500 printer
I have windows 7 professional... please helpHey Patricia Davis,
Firstly, please clarify whether you are trying to use scanner or printer option as both are different.
What exactly are you trying to do with your document? Do you face the same issue with all documents or any specific one?
Is there any error message that prompts on your screen?
Let me know.
Regards,

When importing a CD, the "CD Lookup Results" dialogue box came up and I choose the wrong CD title. Now iTunes is wanting to import a different song list than the one on my CD. I've shut down my computer and opened iTunes from the hard drive Program Files and tried to import the CD again with the same problem. How can I retrieve the "CD Looup Results" diaglogue box to choose the correct CD title to fit the song list on my original CD?
You might also be able to do it without importing the songs again I think. Just highlight the tracks, right click them and choose "Get Track Names". This feature only works on CDs that were imported via iTunes.

When trying to start firefox a message comes up " the procedure entry point IS Thread Desktop composited could not be located in the dynamic link library user32.dll" I then tell it okay as this is the only button it has abd it then takes me into the Add-on window and freezes up and I then have to reboot and avoid using firefox
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== After trying to install Firefox upgrade and IE8 ==

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US) AppleWebKit/533.4 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/5.0.375.125 Safari/533.4Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Application Support" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post. (If you've got XP, although the procedure is for Vista and 7, just read "Computer" as "My Computer", read "Uninstall a program control panel" as "Add or Remove programs control panel" and assume the system is 32-bit, and you'll be doing the right things.)

Incorrect page size when creating PDF from Excel 2013 (export and print)
I am in the USA so everything tends to default to 8½"x11" ... but I created a document in Excel with A size settings. I have attempted to export it to PDF with every setting I can find set to A4 and I have attempted to print the document to PDF again with every setting I can find set to A4 (page size, layout - advanced - paper/output - paper size - A4) with all scaling turned off and yet when I open the finished document in Acrobat XI Pro (with all updates installed) the document properties lists it as 8½"x11". I don't see any resize document settings in Acrobat or any other reason it would be anything but A4 in Acrobat's settings, and I've even had someone in our design department that uses Acrobat extensively look at my steps and they don't see where I'm making any mistakes.
Does anyone here have any suggestions?Notice in the illustration the button Page setup.
Click on that and see if you can set printer from there.
I don't know whether this is in the PC version.
This is an adobe dumb idea inserting a Print menu in between a print menu and the printer, and not allowing the Printer to do the control Setup itself.
One of them ideas that came up when a developer was sitting around twidling his thumbs, and saying hey lets do this. Another idea That comes along with this, is the inserted property feature called simplex printing. If you want to print a PDF duplex you can setin printer till cows come home and you blue in the face. Won't print Duplex. You have to Click Propties and Locate the command simplex, and turn off.
