Some quick givens before I start. IE 11 is non-negotiable. Adobe Reader 9.1 is also non-negotiable.
I'm having a fit with printing reports at the back desk computer with Opera, our property management software. I have to do a preview before printing, but I'm getting a blank dialog box with just a blue question mark and OK, and a blank document.
If I go to Adobe Reader -> preferences -> internet and uncheck the open in browser box, the file will open, but I get the open/save/cancel security warning in a new IE11 window. The "open without permission" plug-in setting doesn't matter. I get either the blank dialog or security warning question depending on the adobe reader preferences setting.
Can I disable the question while still having the checkbox unchecked? Is there a fix for when the "open in browser" setting is on?
Oracle support's only answer was to have me reinstall Adobe Reader. I'm not calling them again because I strongly dislike being talked down to as if I were a grade schooler. I know what a web address box is, you silly person.
This may get rid of the security questions when not opening in a browser.
the blank dialog box appears to be a common problem many people solve by installing a different pdf reader browser plugin, but it seems you're stuck with ie11+adobe reader, so that's doesn't sound like an option for you.

Do you have to use Adobe? Can you put Foxit or Skim on the machine?
Not to mention I'm not the only one who works at that desk, I only see most of my coworkers at either the very beginning or very end of their days, and I've only been here TWO WEEKS.
