On many of my pdf documents when I double click to open the document the print window automatically pops up. Why does this happen and how can I get it to stop. It's very irritating. Thanks!

That's usually caused by a script that's embedded in the file and that triggers the Print dialog when the file is opened.
You can disable it either by disabling JS in the application (Edit - Preferences - JavaScript), or by editing the file and removing that script, assuming you have Acrobat and the file is not secured.
