Adobe Acrobat & Adobe Reader - Print Document as Image

Print PDF as an image

Problems can occur when you print a PDF file. For example, a PDF file can contain damaged content such as images or fonts that Acrobat cannot process during printing. Printing a PDF file as an image bypasses that processing by sending the printer a simple image of the document instead. 

1. Open affected PDF

To begin, please open the PDF that is causing issues. Once this setting is enabled on one PDF it will persist on all future print jobs

2. Choose File > Print, and then click Advanced.

The location of the Advanced button depends on the version of Reader or Acrobat.

Mac OS: If you don't see the Advanced button, click the Down Arrow (to the right of the Printer pop-up menu).  

3. Select Print as Image.

The location of the Print as Image options depends on the version of Reader or Acrobat.

Windows

 

4. Click OK to close the Advanced Print Setup dialog box, and then click OK to print.  

 

This should fix any issues printing PDF files missing data or text.
