How can I prevent Firefox from opening the file I create when I print a page with PDF Create! 5
After I print a web page using PDF Create! 5, Firefox opens the file so i can view it. Before I print, I select print properties and disable "view resulting pdf". However, the file is always opened in Adobe Acrobat, although I believe I have Adobe Reader set as default. I do not want any file to open. This happens on my non-privileged accounts. On my privileged account, the file is not opened. I have removed Firefox profiles, re-installed Firefox, Reset Firefox in Help-Troubleshooting. PDF Create!5 print screen can only be viewed in a host program such as Firefox, Libre-office Writer, or any other program that prints. They do not open the file either.

There are so many PDF programs and add-ons... are you using the ScanSoft PDF Create! program and creating your PDFs by printing to the PDF Create! printer driver? I don't know why the PDFs open in Firefox when you instruct the printer driver NOT to do that. Firefox normally pays no attention to print jobs, so I don't think Firefox is overriding your choice. Perhaps you can change the default for that setting by making a registry or settings file edit so you don't have to uncheck it in the first place?
Thanks for your help. This is the Scansoft (Nuance) program. What I do not understand is why when I tell the print driver not to open the file with a privileged account, it obeys me. I am not sure where in the registry I would look for the information. I do not want to, but perhaps I should remove the Adobe Acrobat program (temporarily?) - then what would it do? Again, when I print from other programs - browsers, wordprocessors, etc - the file is not opened after printing, just with FireFox. I guess I can live with it, I have spent too much time already.
