I recently posted about a weird problem with DC OCR not working on a tax form. I just tried another year for the form. This time, DC shows "Preparing printout - Adobe Acrobat Pro (32 bit) in the top edge of the file's window. Something else I've never seen before. Is DC possessed?  I have no idea what it means. It never changes.

It's probably just the title of the file. Look under File - Properties - Description and I'll bet it will appear under the Title field.

Just getting back to this thread to thank Try67 for your response - you were absolutely right. I have no idea why "Preparing for printout" was put in that description, I didn't even know that could be done. The person who sent me the file didn't know either, but at least I now know how to fix it.  Thanks much.
