Why sudden onset print issue from Reader pdf files (all other programs printing fine)?

I am suddenly unable to print Adobe Reader pdfs. I am running Reader XI (11.0.05). Printing is fine in all other applications.

What OS? What printer? Did you install any updates about the time this behavior manifested itself? How about error messages? Can you give us any exact error message?

  • Launching the printing of a PDF document, all other programs remain locked

    After opening a PDF file with Acrodat Reader, when I click for printing the document, my notebook (window vista) remains blocked for two minutes.
    During that time all other programs cannot be run: for example I cannot even run the Task Manager.
    I currently use Acrobat Reader 9.4 but I noticed the same problem also with previous releases.
    Do you know if this behaviour is normal or I have some setup problem, or virus, or what else?
    Thanks a lot.

    Hi Duncan,
    Please confirm if you Are using Acrobat.com online services or Acrobat software?

  • Installation issues - Finalcut not installing but all other programs do.

    I just recently upgraded to Snow Leopard (not sure if that has anything to do with it.) I have the Final Cut Studio 2 package. I've never had an issues installing, just putting the discs in one after the other as usual. However this time Final Cut is not appearing anywhere on the hard drive. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Eva, It's unclear to me exactly what you did, or what happened. Are you saying you installed the entire FCS2 package, but then when you looked in the Applications folder, FCP wasn't there?
    Before you installed Snow Leopard, as Tom W. wrote, did you completely erase your iMac's hard drive?
    I read your previous post, and it looks like FCP was working okay before you upgraded the OS. It could be there was just some glitch during the installation process. Rare, but it happens. Doing another clean erase and install might get you up and running again.
    BTW, any particular reason why you upgraded the OS? My observation, especially with pro apps, is if everything is working well, it's best to stay with the same OS the apps were originally designed for.

  • My Thunderbird is suddenly super slow only when deleting email. All other features work fine. What can I do? Thanks!

    Starting a few weeks ago... every time I delete an email, Thunderbird acts like it's crashing and takes 30 seconds or so to delete and email, then returns to normal operation. There is no slowness during any other operation.

  • Why cannot I copy selected text from a pdf file opened in Adobe Reader XI?

    Hi all,
    I had a problem when I tried to copy some selected text on a pdf file([Linux.System.Programming(2nd,2013.5)].Robert.Love.文字版.pdf) , which was opened in Adobe Reader XI as below (non-English version):
    The error's text could be primarily translated as "An error occured when copied to clipboard. Internal Error." I'm not sure about the reason of this. I guess it is a problem or bug related to operating system or Adobe Reader XI. I had this problem when I used other versions of Adobe Reader though I cannot remember the exact number of versions now.
    The version of XI I'm using is 11.0.0.  The operating system is XP SP3.
    As I was writing this question, the problem disappeared and I cannot reproduce it again now.
    Could anyone help explain why the error message appearred or why the problem disappearred? If there is referrence provided, that would be finer. Thank you.

    Even if it doesn't have a password, the original author has applied "plagiarism" prevention to it.
    There is a program from Wondershare, called PDF Password remover, that will remove such restrictions, but I'm not allowed to recommend it, only to point out it's existence.

  • Why a docx converted from a PDF file did not convert 1+ page from the source file?

    In trying to work with data from several PDF files, I subscribed to Adobes's online facility to convert source.pdf to output.docx. Output.docx is missing more than a page of data I need. I don't understand why this is happening.
    I tried then to convert source.pdf to output.xls and the data in output.xls was repeating itself, for example:. This date value  04/22 was converted to:
    04/2204/2204/2204/2204/22
    Could any one here help me with these issues?

    Hi rivalg,
    Do you know how that PDF was created? The quality of the conversion depends largely on the quality of the PDF. It sounds as though you may be experiencing some font-related issues. As a test, you can try converting the file from within Adobe Reader with OCR disabled, as described here: How to disable Optical Character Recognition
    Note, however, if the PDF was created from a scanned document, and doesn't contain selectable text, you won't be able to select that text in the converted Word document. (OCR converts scanned/image text to selectable/editiable text). Nonetheless, it's a good test.
    As for the .xls output, it sounds as though the PDF isn't tagged to show the various cells in the table. Again, it depends on what created the PDF. Not all PDFs are created equally, alas.
    Please try converting with OCR disabled, and see how that goes. If we need to, we can take it from there.
    Best,
    Sara

  • Why does reader freeze while opening some pdf files and others open instantaneously?

    I use pdf files created from CamScanner and shared from DropBox.  In DropBox, many times (over 50%) while opening the PDF the process freezes and the error message is Adobe Reader is not responding.  If you close the program, and re-open the file, it opens fine.  I have saved these files to my computer and the same issue occurs.  The files are 100-500kb, so I do not think size is the issue.  I have reinstalled Reader (11.1.10) and there is no improvement.

    This appears to have reduced the time to load a document.  Thanks Jimb      From: Anubha Goel <[email protected]>

    I am getting messages that I can't download and read .pdf files since I have the wrong Adobe reader. I know about their security disasters of course, but I downloaded the latest version of Adobe Reader from the Adobe web site and I have other ,pdf file readers as well, and for some reason they won't work either. I have 5 computers running top end processors and RAM. By this I mean I have one, this one which I am using that has an AMD Phenom Black 3.2 Quad-core with 8 GBs of Corsair top DDR2 RAM, my other two AMD have either an Athlon II triple core with 4 GBs of DDR2 Corsair RAM, one with the Phenom X4 965 3.4 GHz Quad-core with 8 GBs of their best DDR2 RAM, and two Intels with the i7 920 Processors using the triple channel 1366 socket processors and one with 8 GBs of low latency DDR3 RAM and the other with 4 GBs of the same RAM. I am getting the message on this one, which has a fresh install of XP Pro X64 operating system, as do the other 4 as well. I have run Avast Business Pro Anti-virus on this one, which I am getting the message on with a single result which I deleted, and also both Spybot Search and Destroy, which came back clean as well as Malwarebytes Antimalware, which got a lot of tracing cookies now removed, and SuperAntiSpware which also found a few cookies also now deleted. Can you tell me what I need to do to get these files to show as .pdf files rather than as a clean blank page. One other issue is that I wish to know how to turn off my downloads so they are saved and Mozilla will give me the option of returning them instead of me losing them all together as it does now. Thanks for your assistance. If there is another Adobe reader I should download and install, could you provide me with the link to it? I appreciate your assistance here
    == When I download and try to read a .pdf file and when I am asked to turn off all Firefox files and if I do, I lose them since I need to know how to save them without rebooting my computer.

    Brilliant! Problem solved! Thanks so much.

  • Issue with opening .PDF files after recalling from Symantec Enterprise Vault

    Good Morning,
    I am having issues with opening PDF files that have been recalled from Symantec Enterprise Vault and some of the files are anywhere from 3-4 years old.  Some files open, while others return the error: Adobe Reader could not open filename.pdf because it is not a supported file type or might have been damaged.  It is inconsistent as to which files it occurs with.  I am not ready to believe that I have that many corrupt files out there.  I am opening them on a Windows 7 Enterprise SP1 x64 desktop. Adobe 10.1.7. I have already configured the registry setting for bValidateBytesBeforeHeader that I found in another article to no avail.
    The files are on a network share, but I also tried copying them to my local desktop and still received the error.
    I have seen other posts regarding this error, but do not see a definitive solution and am hoping that in recent days someone has come up with a solution.
    Thank You
    Brian Dougherty

    Not supported file type can (but not always) mean the PDF was created with an old enough version of Acrobat, that it isn't comaptible with reader X or XI.
    Might have been damaged is pretty cut and dried in its meaning and interpretation.
    There's a known issue with Mac OS and Safari Browser "breaking" PDFs as they download, but it's not so common for Windows. Since these are files you already had, it would be even less applicable.
    You can try downloading an older version of Reader to check if it's a compatibility issue, but you'd have to uninstall the latest to do it and it'd be a lot of bother if they still don't open. It would also mean they are "broken" and cannot be repaired, that I know of.
