Why Can't I Print My Modifications to My PDF?

I'm a land surveyor, who frequently creates a PDF of my drawings. After creating the PDF, I often will color in certain areas for effect and clarification. My problem arises, when I make a plot of the PDF containing the changes. The colored areas will simply not print. Is there something I can do to fix this problem? The product I'm using is Adobe Acrobat Pro.

You will more likely get an answer if you ask in the Acrobat forum; this is the Adobe Reader forum.

  • Why can't I print a map from a PDF file?

    I am going to the website   http://www.atac.roma.it/   which is the public transit system for Rome, Italy. If you scroll down and click on the green button for     Linee e Mappe     and then scroll down on the next page and click on the PDF file for the      Line e Elettriche     you will get the map for the electric buses that runs through Rome. You will notice at the top of that page on my computer it says        "doc.pdf(secured) Adobe Reader".     You will also notice that there is no option to print the map. This did not used to be the case as I have printed maps off this site before.
    I do not have any add-on for Adobe reader. I am able to print PDF files. I do it all the time. I just did it now, but when I have those pages open I do have the option to print.
    I don't have any problem viewing the page, either the website or the PDF file of the map. I just can not print it. Because it says "Secured" would the mean that  ATAC.Roma does not want everyone printing their map?
    Thank you,
          TomS

    That is because the document's security settings disallows printing (as well as everything else).

    why can't I print a pdf from my mac pro to my printer?

    Don't know! You'll have to give us more details of what's happening when you try. Can you print other documents OK? When you try to print, does the printer icon appear in the dock - click on it and see if there are any printer messages.

  • Why can I not print a PDF from an email?

    Why can I not print a PDF from an email any longer?

    Can you explain in better detail?
    Is it when you open the file attachment and attempt to Print?
    Is it right-mouse clicking and attempting to Print?
    Is it when you print the email itself and expect the attachment to Print?

  • Why can't I print from my ipad?

    I've had my iPad for almost a year now and I like it a lot. It looks very good, it performs very well even though I'm far from reaching my goal of only taking my ipad to school, nothing else.
    One important reason why this won't be the case for quite a while still is that I can't print from the iPad.
    Let me explain. I make quite a number of worksheets. Being a teacher this is one of the things you do so that the students have something to write on and do exercises. Over the years there have been many of these and my initial thought was to put them all on the iPad and print them when needed. But imagine my surprise when I found out that printing from an iPad seems to be near impossible.
    Other colleagues of mine got themselves cheap EEPCs and they work fine. They can access the local printer easily printing whatever they wish. But I can't do that! Unless my school buys a new Air-thingy printer from HP I just won't print there! And that just *****.
    I've bought a sleek and expensive machine that is so sophisticated - that I can't use it the way I want to. And that isn't even ******** about the file system that seems to be equally messed up.
    My question is, why can't I print from the iPad? Printing had been announced many times before the launch of iOS 4 and then, all of a sudden, nothing more. How can this be? Why do I have to buy additional software - which is not really cheap and far from certain to work at all - just to be able to print a few pages?
    Please help me understand this, as I see it, major flaw of the iPad and iOS 5.

    Thanks guys,
    I seem to have understood by now.
    To sum it up:
    - I can print with the iPad directly if the printer is Airprint compatible.
    - I can print via a number of more or less working apps.
    I've downloaded some HP software for my iPad and even seem to be able to access it from some other apps, that is except Apples Pages app. Sigh! So whenever I have to make changes in my documents, I still can't print.
    GoodReader on the other hand lets me send my documents to the HP app, but the app/HP won't let me print microsoft docs unless I register and send my documents over to HP where the printing prep is being made, then they send it back to me/my printer. Anyway GoodReader blows my layout apart, so I must change it on the iPad, but when I do …
    It's a big catch.
    You must realize that printing really isn't that comfortable and that as a spoiled old Mac user I might be excused for wishing something more workable.
    The truth seems to be that I've got to carry all those docs on a USB-stick, move them over to the Windows-machine at our school and print from there - which is what I do on a daily basis already.
    All those workarounds that may or may not work (check out user comments on those printing apps!) are so annoying that my overall question remains pretty much the same.
    But I could also rephrase the question: Why can't I print from the so-called best tablet office app even if I am equipped with all the apps I apparently need?
    Please understand that this is not Apple-bashing in any way. This is a real problem for me in my everyday life. I won't be persuading my school to buy AirPrint printers just because of my little problem and I honestly don't want to spend more money on printing apps that seem never to even have gone through beta testing.
    Still, thanks for you efforts. I guess I'll just have to wait for Microsoft Office for iPad to get that big problem solved.

  • Why can't i print a pdf file, it's asking for a password and i have no idea what it is it's never asked me before?

    why can't I print a pdf file, it's asking for a password and I have no idea what it is it never asked for one before?

    Good afternoon SaraThanks for responding. Yes, I have been able to open these files before without a password. Funny thing is it is happening on both my husband's laptop as well as mine. I'd appreciate any help you could give me but the file is very personal. So, if you can assist in a way that won't compromise the security I would be grateful for your help.Thanks and have a great day!Kim Morse

  • Why can't I print a document from iphone5 to hp wireless printer?

    Why can't I print a document from iphone5 to hp wireless printer?

    Try the following steps.
    Power off the printer.
    Reset the phone by holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot.
    Power cycle your router. Disconnect it from power for about 30 seconds and then power it back on.
    Once it has completed the reboot, then power the printer back on and make sure it connects to the wi-fi network
    Open the content on the phone that you want to print and attempt printing it again.
    If that does not do it, then check to see if there is any newer firmware for the printer from HP.

  • Why can't I print a full page photo in Photoshop Elements 10???

    Why can't I print a FULL PAGE PHOTO IN PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS VERSION 10, (letter size 8.5 x 11?)  I have tried resizing, cropping and anything else I can possibly think of to no avail!!! VERSION 7 was so easy just print (fit to page)! I'am pulling my hair out trying to accomplish this! If anyone can tell me how to do it I would be eternally grateful! Thanks Julie
    P.S. I can't even print a 8 x 10 properly!

    Sarah, my printer drivers are updated! This problem seems SO COMPLICATED when it should be so easy!  It's like the more advanced these programs get the less you can figure them out!!!!  I'am ready to offer a reward to fix this!!! The stress of trying to figure this out is making me crazy!

  • Why can't I print out a PDF file when I am on Firefox? It takes me to Preview to print instead of staying on Firefox.

    When I go to a website that has a PDF file and try to print it, it sends me to Preview and when I try to print, the computer freezes up. This does not happen on Safari. Why can't I print a PDF file when I am on Firefox?

    To print a PDF, you need to use the print command from the PDF reader plugin instead of firefox's one. If there is no icons bar in the plugin, try right-click on a page from the pdf -> Print.

  • Why can I not print to my HP CM1415fnw from my Mac, but I can from my PC?

    Why can't I print from my Mac 10.6.8 to my newly purchased HP CM1415fnw (supposedly air print enabled) but I can print to it from my PC?  I thought mac's we're supposed to be easier and this printer is not discoverable wirelessly on my mac or iPad/iPhone/Ipod, but it is from my PC?  I can only print from the mac/iPad/iPhone/iPod to this printer IF the wired cable is installed.  Seems like HP has the problem, but the mac can't even pull up the printer's web page unless there is a wired ethernet connection.  Yes, it is working just fine wirelessly with my PC's on the network.

    Go to the Apple contact page and the first section should say something like "To purchase by phone, please call..."
    Call this number and order a Snow Leopard DVD.
    http://www.apple.com/??/contact/
    replace the ?? with your country's address code, e.g. http://www.apple.com/uk/contact/
    or if you are from America it's simply http://www.apple.com/contact/
