    I'm running Parallel 7 on an iMac running Lion. On Parallel 6 with Snow Leopard, I could print pdf files from Adobe using the 'select tray based on paper size' option (or words to that effect). It worked fine and my docs would print legal or letter size just fine. Now it all comes in letter size. That's what Adobe in the Mac does. I'm printing to a Brother DCP8080DN with two trays. I've loaded the driver to Windows and can print to it. I just can't use the option mentioned above.

    Anybody have any clues/suggestions? Thanks

    Hi Nieves, are you using Adobe Reader on Windows? There's an option when you are printing to "Chose paper size by PDF page size". It only works on Windows, that option is not available on Adobe on a Mac.

    Sorry, sent an empty reply. I don't know what cross over is. I do remember that one time I had the same problem you mentioned but I don't really remember if just re-setting the trays in menu was the answer.
