[X2Go-User] Possible problem with printing & newer versions of Adobe Acrobat

Hi All:

Has anyone had trouble printing with the newer versions of Adobe acrobat (e.g., "X") with the following symptoms:

-  connect up to server over ssh from windows (x2go version 4.0.0.3)
-  open a document from the x2go session and print
-  on the client, Adobe flashes briefly (if check "Show this dialog before start printing", get the dialog box)
-  nothing comes out the printer (have tried USB and network printers)

As best I can tell, a link is created in the Adobe reader "Open a Recent File" page on the client.  If I click on this link in Adobe, I can then open and print the file as long as the x2go session is active.  Once I shut down the x2go session, the link no longer works.  Also, if I print as a .PDF, the file is generated on the client as a pdf, I can print it, and the file stays on the client.

I.e., the print jobs used to go directly to the printer.  Currently, I have to "print twice".  Not a "hair on fire", but was wondering if there is a way to address this (possibly even in the Adobe settings, but ideally from the server).  

Does this sound like possibly a change in Acrobat?  Or something I need to check on the x2go client or x2go server side?


Thanks!
