You may have set pdf files to open in Reader, "change all" whereas such files will open in Reader rather than Preview. > My question : As soon as I want to print any of these downloads and > want to only print one page or two, and click on the preview button > of that print dialogue, I get the message : Preview is not supported. My understanding is that in Reader "Preview" is intended to show how the ink aliasing would appear in printed output. This is "not" Mac Preview.app, or Print with Preview. As you suggest, this feature is unsupported in Reader, but is supported in the somewhat expensive Acrobat. ie Reader is a dumbed down version of Acrobat. You probably don't need to see that at any rate. > Now if I just click "print" I get the whole document, or I have to > toggle back to see which pages I want, because the window > ( preview) in the Adobe upper part of the print screen is so small > that I cannot determine what I am going to print.
