Good Morning:
Today I installed Acrobat 9 Pro on my Toshiba Laptop, Windows7 64-bit, using Adobe's Acrobat 9 Pro installation disc. I can't seem to get the program to print for me.
I use the Print function primarily to copy emails, web pages, etc that I am viewing, for future reference. In the past, when I'm viewing, say a particular web page on FireFox, or response to an email, I simply would select "Print", "Adobe PDF", push the "OK" button and a dialog box would appear showing print progress. Then, a dialog box would appear asking me where I wanted to save the file, I would normally select "Temp", and the file would be created and filed in that folder. I could then review that file and move it to another folder as I desired.
In this just-downloaded program, there is no opportunity to choose where the file will be stored after printing; it just goes off into a location called "Documents\*.PDF"
I have been unable to find that folder on my computer; I even created a folder with that name in the C: drive, and in the Adobe Program Files folder, but nothing shows up there.
I went into Printer Properties, and Documents\*.PDF is the only option shown, the Browse button offers no other choices.
I can live with these files going to a folder of the Program's choice, if that is the only option; but, if that is the only option, how in the heck do I find that folder? The "Search Programs and Files" utility has been of no use in assisting me.
What do I do now, Coach?
I'm not positive (because I don't have Windows 7) but I believe the PORT for the PDF Printer should be set to Desktop\*.PDF -- if it's similar to Vista.
