[Bug 1442877] Re: Adobe Reader 9 (Acrobat) printing no longer works

 

According to comment #7 it seems that the PostScript file created by
Adobe Reader (it does not send PDF files as print job data) makes evince
(or perhaps some program called by it, like ghostscript) crash.

A quick test on a system using Ghostscript 9.16 shows that no crash
happened neither when opening the file via evince or by directly calling
Ghostscript.

Perhaps it is a problem in Ghostscript 9.15.

Bug description:
  Printing documents using Adobe Reader 9 under Ubuntu 15.04 produces no
  output. The printer is activated, but no pages appear. This worked
  under 14.04 and 14.10.

  Also noted that the options to print the current page and to print
  specified pages are now disabled in the print dialogue box.

  Failing documents print successfully using evince.

  Other applications tried (e.g. LibreOffice) are not affected. This
  problem appears to be specific to Adobe Reader 9.

  Printer is a Brother HL-2070N.
