My boss has an IMac 10.7.5 and she can print all documents and pdf's EXCEPT for pdf's downloaded from the internet.

The following message pops up: There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired.

But when she forwards the the pdf to me, I have no problem printing. IMac 10.8.4

She has tried downloading the latest version of Adobe and tried printing from Preview instead of Adobe.

Well, just a simple question for starters, i.e. why not migrate from Lion to Mountain Lion, if the latter works fine for you on your computer?

When she hovers to the bottom of the page on the PDF does a gray bar appear and if so its self explanatory print from there.

Thanks, but we are a small non-profit of 7 employees. Not in the budget.

I was able to find the gray bar the other gentleman was talking about and it printed with no problems.

I appreciate your time.

The gray bar was there. Clicked print icon and printed with no problem.

Thank you!
