two-sided printing on pdf with mac

[rsloan1]

Hi,

I'm trying to print double sided on Adobe pdf and I have a mac computer. When it prints it always leaves the second page blank. Page 1, then back side blank and page 2 starts on a new page and then continues to use both sides after. How can I correct this?

Hi,

Does this happens with every PDF document or just with the one you are currently working with?

If you have a PDF that is working and printing porperly compare the settings between the two going to File---> Print for each one. If printing settings are different, adjust accordingly for the document that you are troublshooting

Have you re-checked what is enabled/disabled in the Printer Properties and Preferences of the printer driver?

Also check the document properties: FILE--->>PROPERTIeS (or hit Ctrl+D in your keyboard), and see what you have in selected in the INITIAL VIEW tab under Layout and Magnification  (Navigation Tab, Page Layout, Magnification, Open to Page)

Also see what is checked or unchecked in Windows Options.

I have the same problem, also on a MacBook. I checked File -> Properties, and other than the Description tab, there isn't anything that can be changed there. The only thing strange is that, on the "Multiple" page, although there's supposed to be 2 pages per sheet (one on each side), leaving that option selected looked like it would print 4 pages per sheet, with 2 pages on each _side_. There appears to be no option for 1 page per side. Therefore, I had to select "Custom" and 1 x 1. The other options that are selected are Page Order "Horizontal", "Print on both sides of paper", "Flip on long edge" and Orientation "Portrait", which all seem sensible. Changing to Page Order "Horizontal Reversed" did not make a difference. I didn't try the Vertical Page Order options because I didn't want to waste any more paper trying to figure out how to make it work properly. Please fix the problem with the blank page and add the option for 2 pages per sheet (1 page per side).
