License issue Adobe pdf printer

New Here ,
Mar 15, 2021 Mar 15, 2021

Hello,

 

I have installed both Adobe Acrobat DC and Adobe Reader DC on a server. Some users use the payed version, and some of them don't need it, so they only have to use the free version. 

 

There is this one user who uses the free version, but she can't print to pdf. She is getting the following error.

So what i'm thinking, is that the Adobe PDF Printer is pointing to the wrong application, and i would like to know if and how i can change this. Is anyone familiar with this issue? 

 

Thanks in advance.

Thank you, i managed to get the Microsoft Print to PDF to work. I had to add the printer manually. This work around works fine.

The Adobe PDF printer is absolutely not free. Every user needs a license. Since you've installed it in a shared server, it seems to me that you must make sure every single user of the server has a license. You can't rely on the Adobe licensing module to keep you in the terms.
