Printing PDF's.... NOT to file though !

Hi there :)

How come, when I now try to print a PDF file I'm being asked to 'print to file' and enter a file name ?!? No, I just want to print the page to my printer like I used to be able to do !!

Thanks for your help :)

    Silly Q, can you still print a normal text file? I suspect at some point your default printer (or maybe just pdf reader printer) has been switched to a document printer or your printer has been set to print to file instead of your printer port. Have a look at your printer settings
  • Lol, I read that as Silly Cow !! ;)

    Yes, all else seems to print correctly... I'll have another look at the settings...

    Thanks for responding :)
  • Are you trying to print from Adobe Acrobat ?

    is the 'print to file' box checked ?
  • Doh !! *hides in shame*

    Thanks folks !

    *whispers* Didn't see the little tic box....
