Please confirm if there is any Character limit for typing pages in "pages" radio button of "pages to print" section in print dialog box of adobe reader.

I was trying to print a document in adobe pdf format only but unable to type the sequence with more than 32 pages in the page field. I need to type customized pages in 300 pages long pdf. For example: 1,5, 8, 10, 32, 35, ....288

On typing something beyond 32 pages, nothing appears in the field.

Please help here so that printing of any number sequence should be possible (obviously under pdf page limit)

Hi ishag27270462,

Could you please try applying the page range to another pdf file in Reader and see if that works?

Which Operating System is installed on the machine-Mac/Windows?

Have you tried printing from other application given with the specified pages?

Please confirm the version of Reader installed on the machine.

To check the version, launch Reader>go to Help>click About Adobe Acrobat Reader DC

Hi Adorobat,

Please find my responses inline:

1. Could you please try applying the page range to another pdf file in Reader and see if that works?

A. I already tried it which led me to ascertain if there is any character limit in page field

2. Which Operating System is installed on the machine-Mac/Windows?

A. Windows

3. Have you tried printing from other application given with the specified pages?

A. I am unsure if this question is relevant here. It is more about typing the page numbers in adobe reader and then print in pdf format itself. Please note I am trying to add individual page numbers than a page range.

4. Please confirm the version of Reader installed on the machine.

A. Adobe acrobat XI pro (version 11.0.19)

Hi ishag27270462,

Thank you for providing the information.

There is a character limit of 100 under pages to print but that shouldn't stop typing the page sequence you mentioned.

Could you please share a screenshot of the print window?
