Acrobat reader

[mrkeef]

Are there any Acrobat reader/ opdf gurus out there?

I have a bunch of pdf files which the linux version of Acrobat reader will view but not print. The same files work perfectly in the windows verison of Acrobat. What I get is over a page ov very nicely printed ertror log,

One of these files is at:
www.pastornet.net.au/NewLifeN/llet_myLife.pdf

Thanks

What version of reader are you using? Have you tried the just released 5.0.5 version? You might try it and see if it cures your problem.

Oops! I was wondering why it was taking so long to get a reply... I hadn't actually posted the reply I thought I had sent!!

I am using the latest version of Acroibat-- downloaded it the other day.

The other strange thing (apart from the fact that they will come up on the screen but not print) is that I can print the same ifles from the Windows version of Acrobat under W95 or XP.

Hi,
I'm still getting problems on this issue. I'm pretty sure it's some fonts are not behaving properly, or Acrobat can't see the fonts or something like that. I get similar problems with some true type fonts under openoffice.

I've posted the output from a print job to:

www.pastornet.net.au/NewLifeN/chords.ps

Can somebody look at this please and let me know what it all means? And then how do I fix it?

Thanks

What are you running now? RH 7.3?

I wonder if this is just a postscript print bug.

Yes Jim it's RH 7.3.

Is there a known postscript bug?

Is there a known postscript bug?

Isn't a bug that I am aware of for 7.3.

You might consider posting it to:

http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla

See what Red Hat has to say. Post a link to a screenshot of the ouput or post the output as an attachment so they can see what you are getting.
