It seems like a simple question because it is a simple question. and I just love sites like this that don't have simple information online and don't care about their members so they just throw em to a forum and just go... deal with it yourself... so if anyone ever notices this post...

Why can't I print to pdf with adobe reader?

Mac, no. Windows, yes, but only if you have PDF printer. Reader DOES NOT include a PDF printer. For that Adobe'solution is to sell you Acrobat.

That said, printing PDF to PDF is considered wicked by many people. There's almost always a better way if you paid for Acrobat.

Reader can print to PDF when you have a PDF printer. You can install a PDF prinnter with Adobe Acrobat Standard or Pro.
