Hi!

Originally my printing worked, but after reinstall of Acrobat reader to version 2017.009.20044 problems started.

I had problems with the Cannot connect to DDE Server.

I have reinstalled Acrobat server.

After looking in other theads, I have set the Security(Extended) |activate protected setting at start to off.

No probs with DDE server now.

I have problems with printint to a specific printer Using

ShellExecute(GetDesktopWindow(),Operation,AssocFile,Param,Directory,5)

Where

Operation = 'printto'

Param     = 'Zan Image Printer(color)'

But the shellexecutecommand opens the pdf, bot do not print it.

I can print it manually using the 'Zan Image Printer(color)'

What to do?

Best regards

Edvard Korsbæk

Hi Edvard,

If you open the same file in Reader, click on File>Properties> Security tab and check if you have permission on the file to print it.

If you are already have found a solution to this issue, please update this thread with your findings that may help others.
