Hi,

I've recently installed Adobe Reader 9 on my Windows 2003 Terminal Server, and even though i've installed it through Add/Remove (user install mode) there is no "print" option when you right click a file in Windows Explorer.
There used to be on my old terminal server, and is on our desktop machines, so I'm not sure if it's Adobe Reader 9, or some other issue.

I've looked for how to create it using "File Types" in "Folder Options", but have idea what the command lines need to be.

Anyone got any help on this one?

Regards

Carl

I have noticed issues with Adobe reader 9.0 on users too. sometimes when they print long documents only the first page print-out, and ignore the rest. that's one of the reason we have stayed away from Adobe reader 9.

If adding the print option to the right-click menu is the only problem you have, you can follow this tutorial on how to add it.

I believe someone posted that the reason that only first pages get 
printed on some computers have been tracked down and is slated to be 
fixed in a future update.

Hello,
I, too, installed Adobe Reader 9.0 on 12/28/08, assuming it to be an
update to Adobe Reader 8.0. What a joke! The print format box is
completely worthless and above all, it also does not offer a "print"
option...you are totally unable to print anything.

What avenue do I use to reinstall Adobe Reader 8.0, which worked very
well with my system, windows vista home basic, and uninstall Adobe
Reader 9.0.

Any help will be much appreciated.
