Why can't I print PDF files from my iPad or smart phone. Just started this recently.

Not able to print PDF files from either my iPad or smart phone

You probably don't have a printer which supports AirPrint:
What Printers Are AirPrint Compatible? - iPhone / iPod - About.com
If your printer is not supported, you can buy a utility like PrinterPro from Readdle on the App Store. That's what I've used to print.

  • Why cant I open a PDF file from a cd-r that I burned into this cd myself at work on my personal laptop? I have the same version of Adobe.

    What happens when you try? Have you saved to your computer and then tried to open it?

  • Why can I not print PDF files

    I installed Adobe Acrobat AIR and am unable to print PDF files.  Can you tell me why?

    Do you have Acrobat installed? Can you open it and load a PDF? If so, select print and select the desired printer. If this does not work, then tell us the error message you get. It would help to know the OS and version of Acrobat. Air is a separate product (and I still don't know what it does, sorry).

  • Why can't I print pdf files?

    I installed a new HP Desk Jet 1055  J410e and I canot print pdf files.
    I get the message
    The Document Could not be printed
    There were no pages selected to print.
    I have tried what was suggested and still nothing.

    What operating system? What program are you printing from?  (If Adobe Acrobat Reader which version?)

  • Why can I not create pdf files from MS Word documents?

    I'm using Acrobat Pro XI (11.0.5), and Microsoft Word 2007:  I've noticed just recently that, whenever I try to create a pdf file - from within Microsoft Word - I get a message:  Word has stopped working"....  and then the word program crashes.   Then I get a message that says the adobe add-in isn't working and recommends that I disable it.   This is extremely frustrating!  I've tried going into Acrobat directly to create the pdf, to no avail.  I've tried utilizing the "Repair Acrobat Installation" and that doesn't seem to work either.
    The only thing I've noticed which might have caused this problem is I just recently updated Adobe Reader - is there some "conflict" going on between having these two Adobe products installed on the same Computer?

  • Why can I not print PDF files in color?

    Windows 7 Ultimate (x64
    Adobe Reader 10.0.11
    HP Color LaserJet CP1215
    I downloaded U.S.IRS tax Form 1040 for 2014 from Forms and Publications (PDF).  All the text is black. Much of the form has a pale green background that does not extend to the edge of the page.  There are fill-in areas that have a pale purple background.  At least that is the way the form appears when I view it on my PC. 
    When I try to print the form in color, however, all the text is white except for the word "Form" in the upper-left corner.  The green background prints as solid black.  The fill-in areas are white, which makes the white text invisible.  (When I print merely in black-and-white, the text is black, the green background is a very light gray shadow, and the fill-in areas are white.  Thus, the form looks okay.) 
    Also, if I attempt to print a PDF file that contains color images, the images print strangely.    Images are stretched horizontally and then cut off at right edge of the actual image box.  Furthermore, text is white against a background of alternating, narrow, vertical, black and white stripes.  An example is page 8 of the AVG 2015 User Manual from http://download.avgfree.com/filedir/doc/AVG_Free/avg_free_uma_en_2015_15.pdf.  (Again, printing this in black-and-white, the text is black, the background is white, and the image appears as an appropriate black-and-white approximation of the actual image.) 

    Do you have Acrobat installed? Can you open it and load a PDF? If so, select print and select the desired printer. If this does not work, then tell us the error message you get. It would help to know the OS and version of Acrobat. Air is a separate product (and I still don't know what it does, sorry).

  • Why can't I print PDF documents from Safari correctly

    When we go online to get our credit card statements they are always in PDF format.  My husband likes a paper copy so he can reconcile himself.  When we print the document all we get are six very mini copies in the upper left corner of an 81/2 x 11 sheet.
    This didn't use to be the case and I'm wondering if it has to do with Mavericks or an update to Safari.  Does anyone know of a solution?

    Logon to the website then click to "View" statements.
    Then from the Safari menu bar click File > Export as PDF
    Then print the PDF file that was downloaded to your Mac's hard drive.

  • Why can't I save PDF files on my iPad and iPhone

    Since I upgraded to iOS 5 I have not been able to save PDF fines on my iPad and iPhone . Yet that's want the case before the upgrade. Can some one tell me why...b,se I feel like the upgrade was a step backward than forward..

    Thanks for this Griff but it's not the app that isn't responding.  I am in the facebook app (on both iPhone and iPad) and the app is working fine but if people post a video I can't look at the video on the iPhone or iPad.  i always used to be able to but now it keeps coming up with the message I mentioned above.  So I can no longer watch videos from facebook on either my iPad or iPhone.  Here is a screen shot of my phone of what is happening.  As you can see I have full wifi so there is nothing wrong with my internet connection. This is really annoying as I used to be able to watch videos on both phone and ipad out of facebook.  now I can't.  Hope you can help.  regards and thanks Vicki

  • Why can't I back up files from my iPad wirelessly to a wireless hard drive?

    Is There no way to back up files other then through a wire connected to your computer?

    You can backup your iPad to iCloud wirelessly. With certain wireless hard drives there are Apps to handle them.

  • I'm unable to print pdf files from certain web sites. I have just changed to Mavericks

    i'm unable to print pdf file from certain web site. I just changed over to Mavericks.

    You will need to access that PDF on your computer first, before you can print it — unless that PDF is corrupted, which occasionally happens. Your printer needs to be configured and working.
    Default PDF web-browser plug-in in Safari, latest (Firefox/Chrome) also built-in.
    Click on the remote PDF link to open in browser
    On Mavericks, you will need to click through security challenges for the PDF
    File menu > Print
    Right-click on remote PDF file and then choose Download Linked File As...Open that file in /Applications/Preview.appFile > print
    Adobe Reader 11.0.04 PDF plug-in
    Same security challenges on Mavericks as first bullet
    With PDF imaged in browser, either select print icon from the plug-in toolbar, or mouse over the bottom one inch of displayed document and you will see a printer icon in the popup toolbar. Use that.

  • How can I view a PDF file on my IPad? I only get the first page.

    How can I view a PDF file from my Ipad, both in email and Internet links? I only get the first page.

    Support for viewing PDFs in emails and web-pages is built in to the iPad. You need not have bought an app for that.
    There are PDF apps that provide more features than the built-in functionality, but for basic viewing of multi-page PDFs no app is required.

  • How can I prevent a PDF file from being copied, printed or downloaded? Students should only be able to view the text and and not distribute it in any way.

    How can I prevent a PDF file from being copied, printed or downloaded? Students should only be able to view the text and and not distribute it in any way.

    You can prevent it from being printed by applying a security policy to it
    in Acrobat. The rest can't be prevented, unless you spend  a LOT of money
    on DRM protection.

    macs don't come with acrobat reader by default
    when one get a mac and open a pdf file the build in program called preview opens it
    most of us stick with preview because acrobat reader is a rather dangerous program to install
