I'm having trouble with printing pds.

In the mean time I have gone in and changed several of the preferences in Adobe Pro.

How do I get them back to the original settings?

    All the preferences for Acrobat are stored in the register under:

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat - backup and delete that key and it will revert to the default config.

    I'm very surprised that the default config isn't easier to accomplish.Surely this is built in somewhere!

    I'm not comfortable going into the Registry.

    I did finally get my color back, only in this busy office I lost track of exactly what I changed.  I don't know if I was in Normal printing or Post Script, but I remember checking something about "show as image."

    Not as far as I know. If you just want to reset the toolbars - you can right click on the toolbar area near the top and there's an option in there.

    There is a print as image option in the advanced printing options - is that what you are looking for?
