Question

Change program for print preview from browser to Acrobat

When I first tried to Preview a Print Copy of my return, the software asked me which program I wanted to use for the preview.  Acrobat PDF was not offered even though I have the program installed.  The default offered was Edge since that was chosen previously as my default browser.  I accepted the default and the choice of Always (vs. One Time) in order to see the preview.  Edge does not correctly preview the tax return, but I can't see how to change the program choice to preview printing.  How do I change the preview print program from Edge to Acrobat?

    In TurboTax, choose 'Save as PDF' instead of 'Preview Print Copy'.  Then open the saved PDF file (which should open in Adobe if it's installed on your computer) and print from there.

     

    Choose 'Tax Return, All Calculation Worksheets' to get everything, or you can select 'All Official Forms Required for Filing' (I usually save one of each).
