Is it possible to create a button in Adobe Acrobat that will specify to print JUST this page? I can create a button to print the whole document, but I can't figure out if you can specify just this page.
Thanks!

Not that I know of. I've looked in 2 books and at the Acrobat Online Help and can't find anything more than the Button can be set to print the document and not a specific page. I would think this might be possible with a JavaScript action but don't really know.

You can use the following javascript on your button to print just the current page:
this.print(false, this.pageNum, this.pageNum);

Hi every one,

I have query here, I am able to print the present page, but it is going to default printer like "HP Printer" or any other printer which is default.

Here I need to set the printer as "Adobe PDF" in PDF Form and print the present page.

Could you please provide the script like:
this.print(false, this.pageNum, this.pageNum);

It will be greatfull to me.

Thanks in advance!!!.
