Hi All,

I have spent 2 days trying to fix this problem I have the latest Adobe editor desktop, on a windows 10 hp laptop,  when I try to print a double sided document the front page is fine but the back pack page is distorted and not legible I have tried every solution on chatgpt and other online suggestion, Adobe support were not able to assist neither was our organistional external It support. I am wondering if anyone has experienced this before. Thanks

Hi there 

 

Hope you are doing well and sorry for the trouble.

Please update the Acrobat application to the latest version 25.01.20756 from the help menu > check for updates and reboot the computer once. 

Also, check for any pending/missing updates for the printer driver /firmware and try updating it. You may also try to remove the printer drive/firmware, reboot the computer, and reinstall it from the printer manufacturer's website and check if that helps.

@ed_9928 look at your print settings.... maybe you accidentally have the mirror image or reverse page orientation. Or flipped page. The screenshots as attached is from an Epson Printer.

Hi @ed_9928, 

 

Thanks for reaching out. 
Please let us know which application you are using: Adobe Acrobat, Illustrator, or InDesign. 


I am assuming you may be using Adobe Acrobat. Have you tried booklet printing: https://adobe.ly/4gTPTZS;

Could you elaborate more on your issue with double-sided printing? Was this document created by the same app in question, and was it created by you? 



Best regards,

Hi Tariq

Thank you for your response,

I have recently purchased Adobe Acrobat Version 2025.001.20693 (64Bit).

I did try printing in Booklet form as you suggested, it printed on both sides, clearly, however I need A4 size per page.

I have tried multiple pdf documnets from different sources and they all face the same printnig issue. These are multiple page documents which I wish to print on both sides of an A4 paper.
