Printing PDFs As An Image

Issue/Question

How do I print a .PDF file as an image?

Environment

  • Adobe Acrobat Reader

Cause

Problems can occur when you print a .PDF file. For example, a .PDF file can contain damaged content such as images or fonts that Acrobat cannot process during printing. Printing a .PDF file as an image bypasses that processing by sending the printer a simple image of the document instead.

Resolution

Note: This process can cause images and fonts to look slightly rougher, especially at the edges.
