I wanted to close a Barclays savings account and downloaded a PDF to
allow me to do this by post.

Each time I tried to print it Adobe Acrobat threw a wobbly and failed to
print.

Task manager showed two versions of ACRO RD 32.exe running both of which
appeared to be active although one was hogging the processor time.

Using Firefox on Windows 7 pro if it matters.


Were you launching the .pdf directly from FF Tim? FWIW, whilst that
often works for me here (XP / FF), it's often 'safer' to download the
.pdf and then print it from Acrobat / whatever (I can't answer your
specific question). ;-)


Er... I was using Firefox to access the Barclays site. Visible on screen
OK. Saved to my downloads file and then attempted to print through
Acrobat.

They'll do the job by telephone but I was planning to invest 63p rather
than risk a queue on their helpline.
