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 settings0

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
