Question

Adobe Acrobat XI will not print to pdf. Error message says no pages selected.

When I try to print a document created with Acrobat XI (recently updated), I get an error message telling me that no pages were selected. On the print window the "All" radio button is selected but the others are grayed out and not selectable. This was not a problem before I upgraded to XI.

    Hi marsha's angels,

    Please see No pages selected printing error (Printing & Prepress).

    If the solutions listed there don't do the trick, please let us know. It'll help us narrow down the problem if you can let us know what operating system you have, and whether the printing error is specific to one file, or occurs with any file that you try to print.


    Best,

    I'm afraid that didn't do the trick. The suggested link said to "deselect" "protected view". The closest thing to "deselect" was to select "Off". Alas, that didn't work. This problem seems to exist on any file that I try to print to pdf from Acrobat. I can create pdf documents from other programs. I am on Windows 7 Home.

    Hi again,

    Just realized that you're printing to PDF from Acrobat (rather than printing to a printer). Wondering whether there's another way to accomplish what you're after by printing to PDF from Acrobat. What are you hoping to achieve by printing to PDF?

    Thanks!
