Hi, I tried this with acrobat reader 7.0 in windoze XP and it prints just fine.
My colleague tried in Adobe Reader 8 in Xubuntu (Hardy AMD 64) and that fails to
print, however, with evince 2.22.2 it does print on his machine. I have tried on
my 32 bit Jaunty beta and there the document prints in evince 2.26.0, but not in
acrobat 8.

So mixed results.
