    Microsoft Print to PDF, troublesome T attribute

    Use BulkFileChanger (from Nirsoft) or PowerShell command to unset "T" attribute. More here:

    MS Print to PDF adds the "T" (temporary) attribute when writing to PDF which causes Windows Search to skip the file.

    after new Windows 10 update won't allow me to print PDF

    PDF won't print

    Hi Bruce,

    A software conflict is one of the possible reasons why you're unable to print PDF files. Since you've mentioned that you're able to print other files, it's possible that the PDF reader app that you're using is outdated or corrupted. We'd like to know a few
    things so we can better address your concern.

    • Have you made any changes prior to the issue?
    • Are you getting any error messages when trying to print PDF files?
    • How are you trying to print PDF files?
    • What's the default printer set up on your computer?

    In the meantime, for us to troubleshoot your printing issue, we suggest updating the PDF reader app that you're using. We also suggest updating your printer driver. To so do, refer to the steps provided on this
    link. If Windows doesn't find a new driver, you can try checking for one on your device manufacturer's website.

    Let us know if you need further assistance.
