Shared Network PDF Printer

Hi there!

A little bit background first:

I installed a Adobe PDF Printer on a Windows Server 2008 R2 and shared it so I can add the printer on my client.

My intention is to print a document on my client via the added Adobe PDF printer and let it directly place my printed PDF documents on a specific folder on the server where the PDF printer is installed.

When I'm logged in to the server where the Adobe PDF printer is installed it works great.

All my docs get converted to PDF and get saved in the specified folder.

When I print a document on my client I'll get an error in the printerqueue on the server.

The document doesn't get converted nor get saved in the directory it just resides in the queue in an error status.

My question is, if it's even possible to share a Adobe PDF printer over network so other can use it.

Or does Adobe prevent us from doing this for sales reasons or something? Do I need a special license?

Kind Regards

Joyce

As far as I know (but I'm not a lawyer), you're not allowed to do that according to the EULA you agreed to when you installed Acrobat.
