Can't Download Pdf On Mac Chrome

I use Chrome v36 on mac OSX 10.9.4

A blank page in the web browser A red X icon A broken-link indicator, such as a red square, a blue triangle, or a blue circle Error: 'The Adobe Acrobat/Reader that is running cannot be used to view PDF files in a web browser. Adobe Acrobat/Reader version 8 or 9 is required. Please exit and try again.


Until recently, saving pdf to file was easy - either using the 'export as pdf' function in preview, or printing to my Epson and saving as a pdf from there. Now neither of these work.


When I try to save from Preview, the file opens in my printer application (to print), rather than save to file.

When I try to save from my printer app, the file refuses to save with a 'filename must be of 31 characters or less' error, then cancels the save action.

What the **** is going on? This all worked fine before, and I have to be able to save receipts etc for my business.


Any help gratefully received.
