Printing to Adobe pdf

Apr 20, 2006 3 Replies

Using Q2004 I tried to print a report to Adobe PDF. Got a dialog box with the message:



Unable to find Adobe PDF Resource Files C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\Adobe PDF



6.0\Settings\[].joboptions

The [] represents the lozenge indicating a non-displayable character. The dialog box asked whether I wanted to run the Installer in Repair mode, which I did, but it didn't help - I still get the error.



The Adobe joboptions are there in the Settings folder indicated, but they have readable names like "Standard.joboptions" and "High Quality.joboptions".



In Q2000 I was able to print reports to PDF, but an error has apparently been introduced in Q2004. Is there any way of getting around it? I want to email reports to others in my group, and text files just aren't as nice as PDF's.



Thanks for your help.

As a possible point of reference: I don't use Q2004, but I have it installed on my laptop. I just downloaded CutePDF to the laptop, told Q2004 to use the CutePDF printer to print reports, generated a report and printed it to a pdf file with no problems.

Q2004 Home & Business, US, R1.

I'd forgotten I have another PDF creator (Jaws) and that worked, too. So it's just Adobe that's broken. Thanks.

Suzanne,

I'm using Q Premier H&B 2006 with Adobe Acrobat Professional 6.0.5. I'm not having a printing to the PDF printer and creating a PDF file from Q. You might want to see if you have the latest updates to Adobe 6. They just released 6.0.5 back in 3/1/06.
