Stamp manual problems

Hello All,

I am just getting started with the basic stamp and have downloaded
the latest rev manual from the parallax web site. There are a copy
of pages that I would like to print out so that I have a hard copy
of them but when I print the pages the text comes out as a bunch of
small boxes while the graphics print fine. I have never had this
problem before with a PDF document and was wondering if any one knew
what I can do to rectify this.

Thanks in advance,

Tom

    Try the latest version of the reader (5.something I think it is up to) I
    have no problem printing the manual and in fact they are very nice pages
    when printed out.

    Thanks Mike,
    It appears that XP likes version 5.0.5 better than 5.0

    Mike;

    I am trying to print the Basic Stamp manual (ver 1.33) with Adobe version 5.05
    (Windows 95). I can view the whole
    document but can only print pages 7 through the end. Thoughts?

    Thanks,
    Jim

    Jim,

    I am betting that your problem is your printer buffer. Good news is all you
    have to do is in the print box select "print as image" in the upper right
    hand corner. My HP 4L laser does the same thing.

    Hope this helps,
