Adobe Reader The Document Could Not Be Printed There Were No Pages Selected
of help others. I recently encountered a problem after distilling a document from InDesign which, as an Acrobat PDF, would not print - giving three successive error messages: 1. The Document could not be printed. 2. There were no pages selected to print. 3. A drawing error occurred. Well, that covers about everything ! After about an hour of patient diagnosis I discovered some erroneous characters had appeared in some bullet adobe reader the document could not be printed insufficient data for an image points and removal of these cured the problem. I found them only after copying and pasting the text into Word (using the paste as "text only" option) and copying and pasting it back into InDesign. The spurious characters then appeared as a red-highlighted squares and could be easily deleted. (Note: I had previously used the 'Show hidden characters' option in InDesign which did not reveal these little devils, neither did they 'appear' in the Word document) I believe the erroneous character is probably a result of formatting which was in the original Word document imported into InDesign and which could be a 'flag' for bullet formatting (in Word). The lessons I learned from this are: patiently isolating the section of the document led to the discovery of the problem be aware, in the future, of possible odd characters appearing (invisibly) from Word and corrupting InDesign documents. Hope this may be of assistance. I haven't given version numbers of my software since this is almost certainly not relevant - but the general principle is. I hope this may be of assistance. 21831Views Tags: none (add) This content has been marked as final. Show 4 replies 1.

Drawing Error and No pages Selected - Clients cannot print reports. Please https://answers.acrobatusers.com/Drawing-Error-and-No-pages-Selected-Clients-cannot-print-reports-Please-Help-Us-q69810.aspx Help Us! Can anyone help me? We are using a software to create reports for clients in pdf format. It has been working for a couple of years but now nobody can print the reports. Our clients are getting a "drawing error" or "no pages selected error" message when they try to print. I seem to be the only one that can print the reports on my other computer (using version X) but none of our clients, nor even the adobe reader computer that created the initial report (now using version XI) can print the files. Chris Saam 2 Answers Voted Best Answer Edit Answer (for another 11 minutes) I got the file. There is a PDF syntax issue, which may be to blame for your printing problems. This could certainly cause the drawing error. I've attached a screen shot of the Preflight report, as you can see that problem is flagged on all pages, starting on page 2. I would get in not be printed touch with the developer of the software. They are using a 3rd party PDF library (wPDF), which seems to play a bit fast and loose with the PDF spec... This is a serious problem, but unfortunately very common with 3rd party libraries. Did you update the software recently? By Karl Heinz Kremer Edit Answer (for another -3 minute) This sounds like corrupt PDF. When you look at one of these PDFs Document Information (Ctrl-D), go to the Description tab and look at the PDF Producer and Application information. What does it say? If it's not Adobe software that created the files, I would suspect that something happened (e.g. an update to the software) that is now producing corrupt PDFs. It is also possible that you updated Acrobat or Reader on your systems and the new version is pickier when it comes to this particular PDF problem, and it is no longer printing these files. If this is a non-Adobe PDF creator, you need to talk to the vendor that the software came from to see if they know aobut the problem, and have a fix for it. If you could provide a sample file, I might be able to take a look to further debug this issue.
