PDF Writer not installed when installing DC

[danield1316794]

Hello.

I did a fresh install of Adobe Acrobat DC on Windows Server 2012 64-bit. The install was successful except the PDF printer was not installed.

I've tried following the instructions here but am getting an error saying the Printer cannot be loaded.

Acrobat: PDF Printer missing after installation on Windows 64-Bit

Are you trying to get the Adobe PDF printer seen as

* a device available to terminal server clients

* a virtualised device

* a printer available to server processes

* a printer available interactively to the logged in user only who installed Acrobat?

* something else?

Trying to have it installed as a local printer on the server and accessible to all users who access the server.

You mean with terminal services? Or do you mean a succession of single users who sit down in front of the single console of the server?

With Terminal Services.

Any ideas?

I was hoping someone who knows more than I would reply. Well, at least this one is technically feasible. Since you are making Acrobat available to multiple users, you'll need a volume license, I believe. I think you need "named user activation" per person. The volume license software integrates differently than the retail.

As well as having more experts, it also has a link to the Enterprise Toolkit (ETK) which you will certainly need.
