the only way i have been able to print on one side of paper is by checking the custom box on which pages to print...such 1-1 or 2-2 and so on...

Hi Harrys,

As per the description above, you are not able to print the PDF files one-sided , Is that correct?

Please go to the Print Dialog Box from File>Print (Ctrl+P), Uncheck "Print on Both sides of Paper".

If you want, You can set a particular document to default to single-sided printing by going to Document Properties i.e. File>Properties>Choose the Advanced Tab> Under Print Dialog Presets>Choose Simplex mode.

The press OK and save the document.

** Note: This will not prevent the user from changing the setting in the print dialog to duplex if their printer supports duplex printing.

Hope this helps and keep us posted with the results.

Regards,

Anand Sri.

The new Acrobat will not allow you to single print, 1 it does not have "Print on Both sides of Paper" feature and even if it is in the Simplex mode it will still print on both sides.
