Yes good point Essex Angel, OP did you save the document? You can't print what you don't own, if you see what I mean.

Did you rename when you saved it, or did you save it as the original name?

What happens? Does acrobat try to print but gives up after a short while? Does the printer print garbage? Does the print function in acrobat say it can't print and doesn't try?

Did you try the route of importing it into your acrobat reader?
Click the acrobat reader icon and go from there.

many many many thanks to you all, managed to get it to print,, big kisses MMMWWAAAAHHHH
