Hi, I'm using 8.1.7 with Leopard 10.5.8. When I print a pdf with elements that are set to overprint in the document on my laser printer, and with 'Simulate Overprinting' unchecked, Acrobat will sometimes not simulate overprinting but most of the time will simulate overprinting when I don't want it to.

On both Mac and Windows when I print a document there is an advanced screen that allows me to select an option called Simulate Overprinting, however such an option doesn't appear on the Ubuntu version.

Overprinting refers to the process of printing one colour on top of another in reprographics. This is closely linked to the reprographic technique of 'trapping'. Another use of overprinting is to create a rich black (often regarded as a colour that is 'blacker than black') by printing black over another dark colour.

This is an issue for us, as we're trying to print documents that need flattening (this is what overprinting does).

Am I missing something here, is there a way to enable overprinting on printed PDFs?

Note: Please don't confuse simulate overprinting with overprint preview, of which doesn't apply when printing.

Just to show you what I'm looking for, this is the Print > Advanced screen..

Many different ways exist to to view PDF and print it under Linux.

I count this question point to the problem around original PDF representation inside Ubuntu environments. You can try to use Scribus software for converting PDF to open formats, but latest fixes there also include 'disabled overprint feature' due to buggy output.
