It works now. From the command line.
O.k. - then it is very likely not a bug in CUPS 1.5.0.
I happily agree :-)
Acrobat Reader shows a strange dialogue window (File -> Print -> Properties) with loads of emtpy lines, only two entries visible on the left side and somewhere an entry on the right side. Invisible only, I think, because I can select three lines on the right side when the first empty line on the left side is visible.
Usually, Acroread just shows the options that are already selected as default. Just pressing the "OK" button printed on both sides. Now it doesn't, and I can't see the options. But this might be an issue of Acrobat together with KDE 4.7.2, I don't know.
Does it perhaps help to move ~/.adobe/ away for a test?
Neither removing ~/.adobe nor removing ~/.acrobat gave any changes.
Perhaps the Adobe Reader stores printing related details there which need some kind of reset after a CUPS version upgrade?
I have printing related stuff in ~/.adobe/Acrobat/9.0/Preferences/reader_prefs
I have this file, too, and renamed ~/.adobe/Acrobat/9.0 to ~/.adobe/Acrobat/9.0.mist first, but nothing changed Then I removed ~/.adobe and ~/.acrobat, same result. Yes, acroread was closed when I did that :-)
This leads into nowhere :-(
This leads to a not really surprising finding about proprietary software.
Yes, into nowhere, since /no/body knows /where/ to find the reponsible code ;-)
If other users of the Adobe Reader could confirm that since the upgrade from CUPS 1.4.x to CUPS 1.5.0 the Adobe Reader print dialog does no longer work well, please file a bug report so that the issue is at least known and reported to us.
I think I will do so, when the dialog window is still empty on monday. Can I attach screenshots or should those pics be stored externally?
Of course because the Adobe Reader is proprietary software, all what we could do is to inform Adobe about the issue and then wait until Adobe releases an update of their proprietary software.
Unfortunately, I have to use it because we have several forms in the office that require this proprietary stuff.
