In the print dialogue box it's missing the option to print on both sides, can anyone help me?

Correct answer Abambo

Adobe Acrobat asks the OS about the print capabilities. When the OS reports that the printer is a duplex printer then and only then the corresponding dialogue is shown. Unfortunately there are printers/printer drivers that do not report their capabilities to the OS. Acrobat can do nothing about this. You need to enter into the printer dialogue.

Sometimes (at least on a Windows PC) you have the possibility to configure "manually" options to be then reported by the OS .
