xmlmagician, tahnks for the idea.<br />
I have already set &quot;Automatically download upates, but let me choose when to install them&quot;.<br />
So the problem seems to arise from any update...<br />
If it would be possible to save the preferences... But that is not possible at all.<br />
A script which sets preferences and printer settings might help - but how to write such a script and run it at start of Acrobat? <br />
Are there any examples available?

Answer gave goodf hints, but probably need to follow a different route for a solution: script in Acrobat running at start of application.

It' nice that Acrobat updates automatically to cure security holes etc.<br />
It is - however - not nice at all that these automatic updates reset the Printing preferences and the Printer Properties for th Adobe PDF printer back to the defaults:<br />
* Paper size A4 is reset to Letter<br />
* Use of System Fonts only is activated again<br />

This happens in Acrobat 9.x.x, last time at the update from 9.4.2 to 9.4.3<br />
How can I avoid this behaviour?<br />

Automatic Acrobat updated ruin the printer preferences

Adobe Acrobat is a family of application software and Web services developed by Adobe Systems to view, create, manipulate, print and manage files in Portable Document Format (PDF). The family comprises Acrobat Reader (formerly Adobe Reader), Acrobat (formerly Acrobat Exchange) and Acrobat.com. The commercial proprietary Acrobat, available for Microsoft Windows and OS X only, can also create, edit, convert, digitally sign, encrypt, export and publish PDF files.
