Everytime i try to print a "pdf" file it always prints the text in a
different language or symbols. It will not print in english. Anyone know how
to fix this? Thanks.

I am having the same issue. I have uninstalled all versions of Adobe acrobat
and reinstalled. This is happening no matter what printer I am using. We
use a Lexmark, Hp 6988, and a Hp1018 laser.. They all come out the same,
almost looks like a alien script. There are a few sentences within the
printout that are in regular English but most are not..

Specs:
Windows Vista Ultimate
Dell Inspiron M1710
Intel Core 2 CPU T7600 2.83GHz
3326 MB
32-bit Operating System

Adobe Reader 8.1.1

Please help..

Here is what I came up with..

I uninstalled Adobe reader and installed Foxit Reader from
http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/rea...own_reader.htm
set it as default and even installed the version with a toolbar. Now I can
print PDF files.. Already tested it and it works great. Make sure you
uninstall Adobe before hand..

Hope that helps..

WOW! Very nice program.....Works great for printing PDF files within the
"Vista Basic Home environment. After 6hrs on the phone with HP Tech support,
with no successful outcome, the problem was resolved with just one post.

Many Thanks Again to you Keryst....
