Believe me, I have used the Goog, and have yet to find an acceptable answer. I've been looking off and on for 2 days. I even "Bing"-ed "and Decide"-d I'd bite the bullet and ask someone who might know.

[edit]I've copied all preference files for Acro and Distiller from one computer to the next, which didn't transfer print settings (that was where I started out).

The other side can point out their inaccuracies, but the voter's mind privileges the memory of the original accusation, which was juicier than any counterargument ever could be.)"

sorry no help because I print just about everything through Evo, it's connected to our proofing color laser in here. It's all I can do to keep my few pitstop quickruns tracked down and brought forward from version to version.

Just to be clear, I am taking about "Presets" and not .joboptions.

For Acrobat X try:

~/Library/Preferences/Adobe/Acrobat/10.0/

For Acrobat 9 they might be in:

~/Library/Preferences/Acrobat/9.0_x86/

I don't have 9 anymore so I can't say for sure but my custom print settings for X is in the above location.

Plus there is a good chance the 9 print settings won't work with X anyway.

I just started playing with 10, and I don't even see where setting custom print presets for a specific device is even an option. I'm starting to hate this "hide-and-go-seek" with all the Acro X features. I just found the zoom tool today.

Think positive, digicorn, c'mon... you're an Advanced kinda guy.   :laugh:  You will grow fond of AcroX, promise. It's called Stockholm  Syndrome.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In psychology, Stockholm Syndrome is an apparently paradoxical psychological phenomenon in which hostages express empathy and have positive feelings towards their captors, sometimes to the point of defending them. These feelings are generally considered irrational in light of the danger or risk endured by the victims, who essentially mistake a lack of abuse from their captors for an act of kindness

Yeah. I found it just before you posted. Instead of "just being there," now it's extra clicks.

If you haven't seen this already then try this:
single click on the PDF, then "get info".
In the get info window there is an option for "open with"
You can change the program and say always open with or "all documents". Can't remember which one it is. But it's there.
