HaydnH Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 I didn't think acrobat came with a pdf printer? Download a separate one, CutePDF or Bullzip PDF printer work fine, simple download and install. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacW Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 32 bit or 64 bit OS? Many drivers have not yet been updated for 64 bit systems in default installations. Sometimes they have the correct installation files hidden in another folder, others haven't bothered providing them yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea I'll have a look at that when I get time ... in the meantime I need Acrobat cos I know it works with AutoCAD and my drawings come out at the correct scale; I have to upload about 50 drawings for a project before Friday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
