Use permanently the level of PS 2 when printing

The printer in use must be fed with postscript level 2, but Acrobat 9 automatically changes to level 3, who abandons the print job.

How can I permanently (!) switch to level 2?

(I don't know how to switch PS levels and how to save the settings, but Acrobat does not make this sticky setting).

Need help - all my printing to Acrobat rinse!

I know this is an old thread, but I just faced with a very similar problem and found the solution, what other readers will find useful.

In my case, I have a HP LaserJet 2200 d printer that only supports Postscript level 2. My current PC is much newer than this printer and running Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit. I just installed "HP Universal printing PS" driver for my LJ2200, but every time I tried to print a PDF with Adobe Reader the Postscript options by default always language level 3. In this case, the file is sent to the printer but nothing is printed and no error message is generated.

The solution is to identify the PPD (Postscript Printer Description) file that relates to your Postscript printer and then edit it to change the following line * LanguageLevel: "3" to say * LanguageLevel: '2 '. A PPD file is just a text file, Notepad is an appropriate editor. You can find (like me) you need to run Notepad with administrator privileges in order to save updated PPD file. The default value of printing Adobe Reader has been changed so PS level 2.

I've identified the relevant PPD file name by going to the About tab in the printer and do properties dialog box through the list of the driver files. I then used the Win 7 search tool to establish that this file is located in the C:\Windows\System32\spool\drivers\x64\3 folder (it was also in another folder with a much more obscure name but I have not yet found no need to edit this file).

Hope this helps someone.

  • Adding file names when using "combine the files supported in acrobat.

    Adding names of files when using "combine the files supported in acrobat.

    Is this possible?

    Either as a note at the bottom of each page or a note on the print?

    Without having to write or copy and paste the names of files in the PDF by hand?

    As in "automatically"?

    What it is for:

    I do guides step by step for some software for computer magazine.

    I am taking screenshots of the software and they are sent to the art director as a bunch of .tif files to be used for layouts.

    I need to be able to show him where to put the numbers (1,2,3 etc) for steps-by-step and where he can cut the screenshots.

    I am therefore files .tif Guide to the artistic director. Using Acrobat 9 Pro I can easily combine all the .tif files into a PDF with the extension of the shell "Combine" supported files in acrobat.

    And using the comment & markup tools, I can easily ad numbering, arrows, important areas and so on.

    However, these guides often include a lot of screenshots, so it is important for the Artistic Director to be able to quickly identify each screenshot. And for that he needs the name of the original .tif file to follow the screenshot in the pdf. So that when printed out the pdf and made his page layouts, there no browse and compare a pile of screenshots without a name.

    When you combine files in Acrobat format (in flat PDF rather than a portfolio), you will get bookmarks for each document referencing the original file name. If they are not displayed, click the button in the dialog box Options combine to turn them back on.

    Since you're combining a series of pictures, you'll find yourself with a bookmark for each page - so the value seen initial of your PDF "bookmarks and page Panel" to file on the file > box properties dialog and you have close to what you want. Write the names of files in the footers is possible but requires script to extract the bookmark names and page numbers, then write a watermark on each page.

    I got the game "Chess Titans" runs under Vista 32 bit. It works OK. But it seems impossible to change the difficulty level"of the game. The only time I was able to change the "level of difficulty" is when I installed MS Vista. I tried 'Options' - but it does not contain something immediately useful in this regard.

    Certainly, you can change the difficulty level of Chess Titans.
    1. Once you start the game.
    2. click on the game and then go to options.
    3. in the new window that opens, in the top right of windows, you can cursor diffculty.
    4. move the slider from left to right to increase the difficulty. There are 10 levels of difficulty from 1 to 10.
    5. Once you have customized your settings click Ok.

  • PC/tablet-is there a laboratory touchscreen top that works on windows 7 / 8, where the screen can detach the keyboard to use in the form of tablets, or screen can be reached for keyboard vertically or horizontally?

    Labtop / Tablet question -I'm shopping for a new Labtop.    Is there a laboratory touchscreen top that works on windows 7 / 8, where the screen can detach the keyboard used in the form of tablets and then transformed (with long vertical side) and attached to the keyboard to type a length full page (8.5 x 11 page) and then returned (long horizontal side) one attached to the keyboard (to be used as a stand) for a movie with all the features of present characteristics of a top laboratory such as 4 to 8 GB memory and a 500 GB hard drive (perhaps as part of the screen or connected to / through the keyboard, if it is used as a docking station)?

    It seems with all the technology of the tablet on the market that Microsoft or somebody would do something like that now.  Can someone help me? Thank you

    -Scott M

    PS: My wife has an ASUS transformer where the screen detaches from the keyboard, so it can be used in the form of tablets.  When it is attached to the keyboard, the keyboard acts as a stand to sit on the counter for watching movies.  And then the keyboard and the screen can fold them together, so when it is closed there is a stand-alone case. This, however, runs the Android operating system.  Basically, I want this same design (for the potability in a Briefcase), but with it running Microsoft Windows so it can be used as any other labtop.  It the keyboard could have a number pad are associated with, that would be a bonus.

  • HP Photosmart C4480 - blurry text when printing *.pdf

    Hi,

    I seem to be a common problem but can't seem to find a common solution. I have a printer [HP Photosmart C4480] who works well for ages. Now, however, seems to have problems printing pdf. As I said (or rather typed), This seems to be a common problem. In other sources on the internet, it is described as dark printed text or text that looks blurry (for example, here). It seems also the text is printed in a shade bluish the color of the font of the text itself is black. Just for the record:

    -J' restarted my computer. 3 times;

    -J' have 2 new hp original cartridge in the printer. The printer is aligned cleaned and everything;

    -L' printer is OK with other files (meaning not being not not *.pdf);

    -This isn't the files. They are ok. It's several files from several reliable sources (for example, my University) that all print sharp printers not HP. I would include a sample attachment, but I can't... O well. I'll add a link. You are here. (* Edit: link has been removed after the problem has been resolved).

    -The problem with the same printer on 5 consecutive laptops running Windows XP upwards and up to what Windows 8. All have the latest version of Adobe.

    -Adjustment of the color to print in black and white (only black and white) does not deny the problem.

    * Edit:-connected via USB.

    * Edit:-portable Test computer running Microsoft Windows 7 x 64 Home Premium (Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium
    Version 6.1.7601 Service Pack 1 Build 7601).

    * Edit 2:-tried another cable USB (thanks for the suggestion Rich1!). Unfortunately, no results .

    * Edit 3:-problem solved partially. Software incompatibility between HP and Adobe. See the workaround. Only works for gray-scale printing.

    * Edit 4: Rich1 helped me to identify the problem. Seems that when printing the PDF files, the printer does not seem to use black ink and in turn simulates black by combining the primary colors (which gives all the quality of the results, where the blur). This problem also exists in Acrobat with Foxit substitution (for example).

    With sincere friendships.

    I think I've solved the problem, even though it may persist in color prints.

    HP, this seems to be a widespread between the printing software and Acrobat Reader problem. I suggest that you find a more permanent solution. First mention of the problem lies in 2008 and it is widespread, but you seem to be ignorant.

    As to the question.

    This question seems to raise its ugly head after an update to Acrobat Reader. Several sources confirm this. As is the case, software HP seems to be an incompatibility with Acrobat Reader. It sucks because it is the most popular format for sharing on the internet of documents.

    As for the solution.

    1. do not use any web application to print. Save the file. Open it in Adobe Acrobat Reader;

    2. open the print menu [file > print];

    3. click [Advanced] at the top right of the screen.

    4. under color management, check that box to the left of something to the effect of "let the printer choose colors". (I have an English version of the software Acrobat Reader installed, bear with me. Press [OK];

    5. to return to the main print window, go to the menu of [Properties] in the top right of the screen. It should be next to the menu advanced;

    6. in the Properties menu, select the [color] tab. Once there, select an item to the effect of "print in grayscale". Directly under this option must be a menu drop-down. In this menu, select "use only black ink. Press [OK];

    7 print the file. As long as you print in black and white, the focus should be good.

    Hope this helps someone else! If you like my solution, give this guy there Rich1 some kudo is such that at least he had the kindness to answer and help me solve this problem.

    Thank you!

  • Use of the high memory when multiple tabs are open (and closed)

    When I open Firefox memory usage is around 70-100 MB RAM. When I work with Firefox I often open 15-20 tabs at once, then I close them and open others. Increaes of use up to 450-500 MB RAM memory. After the closing of tabs use decreases normally, but after some time. He begins to decrease very slowly and never returns to the level from the beginning. After a few hours Firefox uses about 400 MB of RAM, even if only one tab is open. First I thought it's because of my plugins (Firebug, Speed Dial, Adlock more) but I have checked and it is not. I reinstalled Firefox but the problem occurs as well. I don't know if this is normal. Could you help me, please?

  • Where to add the transitional attribute at the level of the entities or view level? And where to use {return getTransientAttribute()} in the entity or view?

    Mr President

    JDev 12.2.1.

    Where to add the transitional attribute at the level of the entities or view level?

    And where to use {return getTransientAttribute()} in the entity or view?

    public Number getAmount()  
      {  
        return getTransientAttribute();  
        //return (Number) getAttributeInternal(AMOUNT);  
      }  
    
    

    Concerning

    A difference I could think: place a transient attribute on EO level will make transaction dirty (DBTransaction.isDirty returns true) when the field is changed.

    From a design point of view, I tend to place the transient fields at the level VO, because most of the time they are for the presentation of the data in the user interface.

    Only when the transient fields are involved in DML operations (for example when you call a stored procedure EntityImpl.doDML) I place the transitional area on EO.

  • Need to understand the features of LEVEL when printing from 1 to 100

    Can someone please explain to me how the following query?

    SELECT LEVEL just_a_column

    OF the double

    CONNECT BY LEVEL < = 365

    I tried to understand Oracle generator line Techniques - Oracle FAQ , but I did not understand much.

    Hello

    ORA - aff wrote:

    Thanks Frank. I appreciate your response.

    Can you please explain more about how "CONNECT LEVEL <=> works in this query?"

    I understand when it is "CONNECT BY PRIOR emp_id = mgr_id" - for a current line it's going to go and find a row in the table employees whose Manager id is equal to the employee id for the previous line.

    Good!  You already understand the most difficult part.

    In this case, CONNECT BY condition is

    Emp_id PRIOR = mgr_id

    This condition uses emp_id PREREQUISITE, which means that, when deciding if a line will join the game at the level of results = n, he's looking to see what the emp_ids are on LEVEL =(n-1).

    A line will join the LEVEL = 2 if its mgr_id is identical to a level 1 = emp_id.

    A line will join the LEVEL = 3 if its mgr_id is identical to a level 2 = emp_id

    A line will join the LEVEL = 4 if its mgr_id is identical to a level 3 = emp_id.

    ...

    and so on, until you reach a LEVEL where no line do not join.

    But I don't understand "CONNECT LEVEL <=> ?"

    In this case, CONNECT BY condition is just

    LEVEL<=>

    PRIOR is not used in this condition, which means that, when deciding if a line will join the game at the level of results = n, it is not all knowledge on what is on LEVEL =(n-1).

    A line will join the LEVEL = 2 if 2<=>

    A line will join the LEVEL = 3 if 3<=>

    A line will join the LEVEL = 4 If 4<=>

    ...

    and so on, until you reach a LEVEL where no line do not join (which will be LEVEL = 366).

    Hi, Estelle,.

    Don't know if this is relevant to what you are feeling, but...

    I've encountered similar problems of numbering with several of my books.

    What fixed it finally for me, is that I discovered that some files were overrides of paragraph style (not necessarily related to positions or section heads.

    Once I removed all replacements of these files, numbering issues have been resolved.

    While I use the plugin Tools section , you can scan your files for the substitutions with built-in FM find/replace.
