I use cups and tries to print with Acrobat reader, but I only get one page printed, no matter if I print all pages in the document.

do you have an emerge info? What package versions are you using? Are you using ~arch or "stable"?
app-text/acroread version 7.0.8 app-text/ghostscript-esp 8.15.1_p20060430 I think I use stable.

can you please try to update ghostscript-esp to ~arch? and if that does not work please try to update cups too - then come back.
I will do that. I could also add that it works if I do convert myfile.pdf lpr myfile.ps I'll report back tomorrow.
the new ghostscript is now stable - I hope it works for you. Other then that I have not much of an idea :( does the new cups help in any way? you could also ccomplain to acrobat if no other solution is possible.
