XP-64 - NO PDF printer installed with AA9 PRO

Installed, uninstalled, reinstalled -- still no PDF printer. Do I need to go back to AA8 Pro to be able to create PDF's with XP-64?
Seems AA9 Pro is an expensive PDF READER only.

Update to AA9 PRO SAGA:
Having spent the best part of a week sorting out this mess I have finally got this working.
Having re-installed CS3 design premium, my event log was totally filled with Version Cue 3 errors, see:
http://www.pbase.com/jacquidervan/image/100016762.gif
and
http://www.pbase.com/jacquidervan/image/100016790.gif
This prompted me to do a repair to Version Cue CS3 which basically seemed to re-install everything.
Following that repair I was unable to update Illustrator from 13 to 13.0.1 or 13.0.2. The automatic updater failed and the manual updates also failed, although at one stage when trying to update to 13.0.1, the installer reported that it had already been installed, although the Illustrator splash still reported version 13.0.0.
See: http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.3bc43ec4/48
I completely uninstalled CS3 [again] and re-installed everything except AA8 PRO. Again, the automatic updater failed to update Illustrator. I ran the manual updater, and much to my amazement, it updated, both 13.01 and 13.02. The version cue errors are also gone.
Feeling that it was my lucky day, I proceeded to take a chance and install AA9 PRO. It installed without error ...but did not install the printer.
I followed the advice in these forums here to install the printer as described in post #25:
TEW, "Adobe PDF Printer Missing Fix - Adobe Acrobat 8.1 - Vista" #1, 31 Jul 2007 5:00 am
I then ran a repair on AA9 PRO and I now have 2 (two) printers: "Adobe PDF Converter" and "Adobe PDF".
To say that this has been an inconvenience would be an understatement.

  • Problem with pdf-printing in Adobe Acrobat Pro

    Hi,
    I have Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.4.3.
    PDF-printing has always worked great but suddenly there is some kind of problem.
    After printing a excel-document from "Print to pdf" built-in function in MacOS OR Adobes Printer I have corruptet pdf-files when showing them in Adobe Reader/Acrobat, but the MacOS Preview-software shows them correct.
    So, there cannot be any problem with the printing, but the local preview on my computer using Reader or Acrobat. I dont even use the Myriad font in the document, I use Verdana.

    You say you're using Verdana but you're not. The error message clearly shows you're using MyriadPro Bold.
    You probably recently installed the Mac OS X 10.6.7 update which has a bug with OpenType PostScript fonts like MyriadPro Bold. Either use Verdana or another TrueType or PostScript font, or revert to Mac OS X 10.6.6.
    Read about the problem here: http://www.tidbits.com/article/12078

  • Adobe can't find PDF Printer installed. How do I correct this?

    Adobe can't find installed PDF Printer therefore I can't convert PDF to Word. Worked on old Win 7 computer. How do I correct this on Win. *.1 computer?

    Hi Lchepo,
    What version of Windows are you running? Were you able to install the printer on your new computer? If you have the printer installer, you may be able to install it on your new operating system.
    I took a look at your account, however, and noticed that you don't have a subscription to Adobe PDF Pack (which you would need to download the printer).
    One option, that might be easiest in the short term (as the PDF Printer is going to be retired soon, anyway), is to download  a free trial of Acrobat (see www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html). You would be able to create files to PDF directly from within Acrobat.
    Please let us know if you have additional questions.
    Best,
    Sara

  • Printing problem with Acrobat Pro 10.1

    I get an "Insufficient memory" message on my LaserJet printer when trying to print certain PDFs using Acrobat Pro 10.1, but the PDFs are printed without any problem from Acrobat Pro 9 or Preview. Does anybody else have this problem?

    Thanks for responding I was using an MS Excel spreadsheet to merge details to produce labels in a programme called NiceLabel Pro.  The information from the spreadsheet was very simple - a readable code number and a QR code.  In the Nice Label document setup you nominate the printer - in my case this was the Adobe PDF printer - to produce a Press Ready quality PDF file.  I tried several times to print this file and each time ended up with page 1.  As the job was urgent and I had a deadline to meet, I ended up installing a programme called Nitro - which also produces PDF - to complete the job, without a problem.  However, I would prefer to stick with my Adobe Acrobat software as the other alternative is limited in its pre-press options.  Hope this information will enable a solution to the problem.
    - Thanks, Lynne
    Hi again Dov - have you been able to come up with an answer to my Acrobat problem.  Would like to begin 2015 with workable Acrobat.
    Many thanks - Lynne

  • Printer problems with Officejet Pro 8500 A910

    Dear all,
    I have been given as a present an Officejet Pro 8500 A910 (serie number CN16LDM020 and product number CM756A). The people whom I have got it from already had some problems with the printer heads. I have accepted the printer, because I want to have it working again. I do encounter some problems however. I hope you kind people on the forum can help me out and get this thing working again. As a side note: I am only interested in using the scanner, printer (only black and white - I do not print in colour) and e-printing (I understand that it is possible to email documents to printer, so that they are printed whilst you are somewhere else). 
    Upon installation I have conneted the internet to my wi-fi. Upon installation it made some test prints, whereby the black dots were good, but the cyan and other colours were not. When I now turn off the installed printer and switch it on again it takes the printer about 5 - 7 minutes to initialize. On the touch screen of the printer it is said "Checking printer, this might take 5 minutes", "Checking printheads", "Aligning printheads" and alike notifications. After 5 - 7 minutes the printer gives the following notification: " Failure notice. Alignment failed. Refer to device documentation for details." When I then push the question mark on the touch screen the following notidication is given: " Alignment failed. Check printer quality of the current print job. If it is not satisfactory, try aligning the printer to see if that improves the quality. To align the printhead again, touch (home), touch (arrow right), touch Tools, and then touch Align Printhead." When I follow these instructions, the same thing happens. I have tried the option "Clean printheads" under "Tools". The test prints that come out are again good in black and white and not good in colour. 
    The ink level of the cartridges is very low for Yellow, Magenta and Cyan. For Black the printer gives a question mark. The expiry date of the cartridges is in 2015. The information on the Self Test Diagnostic Page (you get when you print a report from checking the ink cartridges) gives the following status:
    Printhead status
    Printhead health: Good (for both Black/Yellow and Magenta/Cyan)
    Serial: 7735960 (Black/Yellow) and 7744345 (Magenta/Cyan)
    End of warranty: mid-2013
    Accumulated ink usage (ml): Black 99/Yellow 71, Magenta 57/Cyan 58
    Refilled supply:
    Detected in printhead/printer? For all cartidges "yes".
    When I try to print a document from Word on my MacBook (which runs on Mac OS X 10.6.8) and the printer is on stand-by, Word recognizes the printer, starts with the print order but then comes with the notifications "Printer offline" and "Cannot find printer" and postpones the print order. Today I reset the printer and the print job that I had before the reset (which was postponed) came out. 
    Today, I printed a document whilst the printer was not on stand-by (the touch screen was on home menu) and the print was well (it was only black and white). After the print, the printer also made a print report. Again, the colour was bad, but black ink was good. After that print report, the printer started aligning again. After 5 minutes it gave the above-mentioned failure notice (" Failure notice. Alignment failed. Refer to device documentation for details."). 
    I would assume that the first thing that I should do is get new cartridges. However, since I only print black and white, can't I just buy the Black Ink and disable the other cartridges? Then, I am thinking of not buying HP cartridges (since the warranty term is already over). What cartridges do you reccomend (price-quality)? If  new cartridges are installed (previous owner had same problems with full cartridges) and the problems (with print heads) are not solved, what should I do? 
    On a second note, I want to use the option of printing online. In other words, give a print order on my Iphone to the printer so that it starts printing at home. How do I set this up? How can I test this?
    I would be very obliged with your feedback on the above. 
    Kind regards,
    Onno

    Hey Onno,
    I see you have several items listed about your Officejet Pro 8500a (A910 series) printer.  The main issue that stands out is the print quality issue.  I would advise starting here with your printer.  
    From your information I can see that refill or remanufacture cartridges have been used in this printer at some point.  It is possible that the ink from these cartridges have damaged the internal ink system of the printer.  If you have performed all the troubleshooting steps for the print quality issue you are experiencing, then the next step is going to be replacing the printheads of the unit.
    Troubleshooting Print Quality Issues
    The 8500a requires all cartridges be available even if you are simply printing in B&W.  If the cartridges are low, then you will have to replace the cartridges as needed.  Typically by the design of this printer, however, print quality issues do not follow ink levels in the cartridges as ink is piped to the internal printheads, thus even with empty cartridges there is some ink remaining in the system.
    The printheads for the 8500a can be found at most HP certified retailers if you decide to attempt replacing them as a step towards resolving the issue.  As to the cartridges, I would advise using genuine HP cartridges as HP ink is designed with HP printers in mind.  For information about refilled/remanufactured cartridges please click here.
    Hope this helps in getting the print quality issue alleviated,
    Jason

  • Printing Problems with Acrobat Pro 9.5 for Mac

    I have Acrobat pro 9.5 for Mac.  I'm using a Canon MG8150 multi-function printer.  Everytime I try to print from Arobat Pro I get an error message.  Any suggestions?  I can print my pdfs from Apple Preview; so it's not the document or the printer.

    The first problem is probably a permissions issue. Run Repair Permissions from the Disk Utility. For the second see this
    Announcement: Known Acrobat Issues under Snow Leopard
    Hide Details
    (1) The Adobe PDF Printer module does not work under OS X.6. Please see http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/509/cpsid_50981.html to find out how to create Adobe Quality PDFs under Snow Leopard.
    (2) Opening files from the finder, including files authored by Adobe applications, may not open them in the original authoring application. Omitting a file extension from the file name will increase the likelihood of this happening. See http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/511/cpsid_51110.html for more information.

  • PDF prints from Acrobat 8 Pro, but not from Acrobat 9 Pro

    I have a PDF that prints fine when I print from Acrobat 8 Pro, but when I open the same PDF in Acrobat 9 Pro, only portions of each page actually print out.
    All systems running Windows XP Pro, SP3
    A8P 8.1.2
    A9P 9.1.1
    Any ideas?

    Well, for those following this thread or needing a solution, I found a work-around though I'm still not sure why the initial problem exists.
    In Acrobat 9 Pro, once you have the main print dialogue box open, follow the steps below:
    1) Click ADVANCED
    2) Select PRINT AS IMAGE
    3) Set DPI to 300
    4) Click OK
    5) Make any other typical print setup adjustments as you normally would and finish printing as usual

  • Win7 does not show "Adobe PDF" printer using Acrobat 8 Pro

    using Acrobat Pro 8.1.0 I cannot see or add Adobe PDF printer. I do see "Microsoft XPS Document Writer" as a printer.

    Concentrate on getting the scanner working without any Adobe software. Once you can scan to a file, any OSX program (except Adobe) that can read the file can generate PDF files via the Print command.

  • Printing preview with adobe pro or acrobat reader

    When I print a document I generally use the Preview button to check what the document looks like.
    Is it normal that with Adobe Pro or Reader the Preview buttons returns the following comment "preview is not supported".
    Merci

    Yes, that seems like the expected behavior - I am not exactly sure why Adobe does this, but it happens here too.
    If it's important, you could ask on the Adobe site or send feedback to Apple asking why this occurs.
