Print a pdf file opens "save under" instead.

I've never had happen, but whenever I try to print a pdf file, it opens a box of "save under" instead.  Then I saved the pdf file on my desktop, but after that it is opened again I select printing and the same "save under" appears again.  The ONLY way I was able to print is by right clicking on the pdf file of my office.  Then only it actually prints.

I use Adobe Reader X (version 10.1.7).  Why doesn't it allow me to print a pdf file when the application is open?

In the print dialog box disable the entry "Print to File".

    Print my pdf files is no longer. After pressing PRINT the 'Print to File' window pops up and I have to press SAVE under to go to the next step. Once the pdf file is saved it is therefore more a pdf but a PRN file. An error message appears when I try to print the PRN file. I need to be able to print my original pdf files. Please notify.

    Looks like you somehow accidentally active the option print to file in the Advanced Options print dialogue. Uncheck that and this problem should go away.

  • Properties of C301a are not open when you print a PDF file

    My printer was working fine but suddenly the properties will not open when printing a PDF file.

    Hey @MtVernon1910,

    I have to recommend at this stage that contact you support backup of lizard for further assistance if you have purchased the full version of the Lizard Safeguard software.

    LockLizard - Support

    However, if you use the free to Lizard Safeguard PDF Viewer you are not eligible for the support of Lizard Safeguard and need to contact the site where you download the abandoned coat pattern to go would either have them allow you to download and view a PDF through Adobe unsecured. Or try a different file such as JPEG or TIFF type to print.

    If the Properties window does not appear in the Lizard Safeguard software and you need to change the printing preferences, you can:

    1. Click on the start menu
    2. Select "devices and printers".
    3. Right click on your printer C309a and left click on 'Print Options' to change your settings.
    4. Once your settings, open your PDF in lizard backup and when you print it to remember the parameters that you set under printing options. Once the print job is completed, return to the devices and printers, and open your new product printing preferences to restore everything to the way it was before you print the PDF file.

    If the problem is that the print dialog box does not open for you, try hitting Ctrl + P your keyboard at the same time and should prompt the print dialog window to open.

    Good luck!

    Print > save as PDF - use an excerpt (part of Mac OS X), so Adobe Reader should have no effect on that at all.

    As for the error "file corrupted", simply uninstall the Reader app will not affect it. Follow these steps:

    Mac/HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins

    Trash the files AdobePDFViewer.plugin and AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin

    Mac HD/Applications

    Trash the application Adobe Reader

    [user] / Library/Preferences

    Trash the com.adobe.Reader.plist file

    To access the [user] / Library, hold down the 'Option' and click on 'Go' in the FInder menu.

    Mac HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe

    Trash the drive (full record)

    Empty the trash.

    Download the installer FULL here: http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/

    Quit your browser, and then reinstall the drive.

    Run it from the Applications folder and agree to the license agreement.

    You should have no problem with Safari PDF files download.

    Unfortunately, ANY PDF file that says it is damaged.... You will need their trash.

  • HP 8610: problem printing of PDF files with iMac

    I have a HP 8610 all-in-One powered by an iMac.

    I have a problem with printing of PDF files.

    When I print, the page moves approximately 1.5 inches down and doesnot print page as seen on the screen.

    I checked with Apple and you s not a problem with the computer.  They say that there must be a parameter that must be corrected with the printer.

    If you encounter the problem with PDF files and only on the Mac, the best solution may be to download and run a different PDF Viewer that allows you to open the file and print instead. Adobe, Foxit, and Nitro are a few free PDF viewers with Mac support.

    Please let me know if you are able to print your PDF documents using one of these programs instead, or if you have any other questions. If not, have a great day!

  • Blue screen error when you try to print Adobe PDF files

    Original title: the computer crashes when I try to print Adobe PDF files.

    I unintalled and reinstalled remains 9.3.3 and it still won't print. The OS crashes when you try to print a .pdf file. I can open the document and view the file but not print, just the blue screen and restarts. I opened a word document, print and print text files. It will print anything but Adobe files. Is there any help out there?

    HonoriusIII

    Thank you for your support and help Sicard. I finally got to the last version of Adobe as the culprit. It seems that the latest version 9.3.3 was causing problems. I uninstalled the software, cleaned the registry and other remains and installed the various editions of Adobe. Seems that Vista likes only one software version which proved Adobe 8.0. Once I installed the software, found a few .pdf documents and tried to print. Not only did it print well, it was very fast. Of all the places to find the 8.0 Adobe has been installed on my recovery disks. I don't think Microsoft product (s) are the root cause. Something in Adobe was the cause of the crash. I have the error message has not write against accidents, but it dumped memory and restart is fine, no conflict of driver. Only thing I did after each accident was to defragment. the hard drive and RAM by using certain tools. Vista ran fine since. I know a lot of people out there do not like Vista, but I did have a lot of problems with the software. I found problems with other types of competing software and work with software developers using their products in beta. The crash of the problems were not these beta products. I believe in keeping software simple and effective, it seems that Adobe will conversely making it too complicated software and an application's entire concept.

    Thanks for you help,

    Got it to work.  I discovered that the updates have been downloaded, but the computer needed to restart to get them set up.  PDF does not open until this happened.  By chance, I noticed a message that says my computer will re-start in two days to config updates.  I chose restart and it took 40 minutes for an update installation and config.  Fingers crossed I checked my pdf and they ran.  problem solved.

  • You are prompted, for the default program when you try to print several pdf files.

    It does not allow me to print several pdf files no matter where the files are stored (office etc., network). I'm prompted with the message "choose program...". "every time.

    I checked my preferences, and "Enable protected mode" is not selected

    Thank you all.
    I was able to solve it.

    In the registry, the .pdf is looking at Acrobat.Document.15

    Looked at the reg path and saw that the "Print" was pointing to Acrobat acrord32.exe rather

    Changed to point to the drive path.

    This fixed the problem.

  • ?  Print a PDF file to Adobe PDF messes up everything

    Here are three questions that can be related to each other.  I wanted to ask them for a long time but kept in the hope that they would somehow be solved.  Any advice would be appreciated.

    1 when I print a PDF file in Adobe PDF format as an image, the color black (even fonts) becomes grey and blurry.  The choice to print as image made in the press (in PDF) - Advanced Configuration of printing - Custom Settings / print as Image (600 dpi resolution, which is the highest available choice).  Regardless of what settings I choose in the press - properties (Standard, high quality printing, etc.).

    2. run OCR on occasion done something similar.  Letters become fuzzy and gray.  Everything is more difficult to read after OCR. It's as if Adobe chose to substitute the font or color to something blur.  It's strange.

    3. sometimes OCR makes it worse.  The quality deteriorates.  In this case, I wonder if the quality should really improve rather than stay as it is.  If a letter is recognized despite the fact that his image isn't perfect, shouldn't it be supplanted in the document by a perfectly solid letter without defects by using one of the common Adobe fonts?  A real police should be used instead of an image of the letter which has been recognized in the OCR?

    Are my settings wrong, or I'm doing something wrong?  I use Adobe Acrobat X Pro.

    Thanks in advance.

    Then, you have not used ClearScan and searchable Image. Indexable image makes the OCR text behind the image so that the two are related in a way. When you print, what is shown is usually what you would get (just a picture). It is unclear why you want to reprint the PDF document in this case--essentially a noone scenario never envisaged.
