Every time I "print to PDF" from anywhere, the document automatically opens in Adobe. How do i get this to stop happenng?

    No because that doesnt apply to me. The print to PDF feature for me DOES work in all applications. I need it to stop OPENING AUTOMATICALLY in Adobe Acrobat Pro when i print to PDF. 


    Open the Printers & Scanners window, click "Adobe PDF" and then Manage, and Printer Preferences.

    Under "Adobe PDF Settings" un-tick the box next to "View Adobe PDF results":

    I always have that box un-checked, but as of today, in spite of that, all pdf:s are opened after I print them. As I print a lot of pdf:s, this is very irritating!! Don't know what more I can do!


    I found the answer! I create pdf:s from Adobe FrameMaker. I use the Adobe printer there. If I go to  Properties on that printer in FrameMaker, the box was checked. I un-checked it there too, and now the files doesn't open when they are printed 🙂
