Sometimes when I attempt to print a PDF file using Adobe Reader it will print the first couple of pages okay then the rest will be messed up. What can be causing this to happen?

Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

Typically causes of "messed up" print / failure to print include:

 

  • Adobe Reader needs to be updated to the latest version of Adobe Reader DC
  • The content in the PDF file is not recognized (odd fonts, colors, tables)
  • The content in the PDF file is corrupted (at least in so much that the Adobe Reader / print software can understand the situation

 

See:

Manage Print Output with Print Preview

 

Section(s):

  • Adobe Reader DC
  • Print Portion of the Page
  • PDF File Prints S-L-O-W-L-Y
