This is still an issue?! I have been opening and printing PDF's on my chromebook without Acrobat for several years with no problem. Suddenly I couldn't open PDF's in my Chrome Browser. I downloaded Acrobat Reader to my Chromebook and can sometimes open PDF's with it but there is no option to print a document. I can print other things with no problem. I uninstalled it and added the acrobat reader chrome extension and when I try to open a PDF it doesn't use the extension. The extension doesn't help me any either.

Hi @PeggyWest,

 

Hope you are doing well. Sorry for your experience with printing files on Chromebook.

 

When you open a file using the extension, you should get the option to print on the top shortcut toolbar menu (screenshot attached)

 

 

If this does not appear on the menu, please share a screen recording of the error with us for further investigation.

 

Look forward to hearing from you.

No point screen printing for you since the extension doesn't work either. I try to open a PDF file and nothing happens or it opens in Google's Gallery app. No idea how to get a PDF to open in the extension. I removed it. This is just too much aggravation for what should be a simple task.

Hi @Roxana5E1C 

 

Hope you are doing well.

 

You need Mac or Windows or Android or iOS.  The Reader is not made for Chromebooks, and because Chromebooks don’t run local apps, it can’t be. A Chromebook is not a full substitute for a computer.

 

Thank you for highlighting this to us. It's in a future enhancement pipeline. You will get an official announcement as well as a notification when this will roll out.

You can use the following link to share your feedback/raise a new feature request to the product team directly: https://www.adobe.com/products/wishform.html

 

Thank you for your time and cooperation.

Regards,

Ria
