I'm not sure but I tried printing a pdf the other day and the paper was blank. I haven't searched the settings yet to see what I was doing wrong. The pdf was of something I generated.
The thing that I do to cause something like that is highlight a couple of characters, when I print I print those highlighted characters not the document.
There is another way a blank document can be created. If for some reason if there is an error when the text is formatted to be placed into the PDF document, the document can be created without the text.
Lastly I have been know to print a couple of blank pages before what I want to print is printed. When I scroll down my intended document is there just not on the first page.
Mine says AC Reader DC (15.010.20059) No updates available.
Edit/preferences Preferences is at the bottom of the option. (Ctrl-K)
Then I have selected Security (Enhanced) at the bottom of that screen are three options What is Protected View, What is Enhanced Security and What are privileged locations.
I had similar problems, it really ticked me off, Readers security is not allowing certain programs to write pdf's that it can read. MS Office being one of them. I haven't yet gone to MS to see why, it is supposed to be an open format.
Well now I am starting to feel kind'a dense. Same version but when I click on Edit/Preferences I get a ..... AH! Security is the in between step that I needed to click. You did not mention that and I often can't put 2 and 2 together.
But anyway, that did not fix it. Oddly colored files seem fine and if I zoom in on B&W drawings the lines get darker, they seem to go from grey to black.
It is in Preferences Security (Enhanced) at the top of the page. There is a check box for Enable Protected Mode at Startup and the there is a check box to turn of the protected view.
It *is* a PDF writer, and a very good one. I've used it for over a decade. Indeed, it's much better than Acrobat Writer (which I'm forced to use at work).
Found it but that did not good for me. I had to change a long time used setting in Sketchup to get black lines instead of grey lines in the latest Acrobat reader.
