Acrobat for Windows and Mac: Printing

(thinking…)

Adobe default prints to pdf instead of printer.

Allow users to set the default printer to an actual physical printer rather than having Adobe continually default to "printing" to pdf. Multiple times a day I have to "re-set" my printer preference from "PDF" to the physical printer. After a few hundred times, I find myself deeply irritated with Adobe engineers and designers.
