Is Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Professional compatible with Windows 7?

I've ordered Acrobat XI Pro, but it may be a week or two before I receive it.  I need to make some pdf files from WordPerfect files and I already have Acrobat 7.0 Pro.  I was hoping to be able to use the 7.0 until I receive the version XI.

You can install AA7 on WIn7, 32 or 64-bit. However, the print driver will not install and AcroTray will not work (at least on the 64-bit machine). To Solve the issue temporarily, install another PS driver (there are several for HP printers and probably other PS printers available in the system). Be sure to use a color PS driver if you want color -- I happened to pick up a B&W PS driver when I tried it. Then change the name to Adobe PDF (I think that was still the printer name for AA7) and change the port of the printer to FILE. To create a PDF just print to the new Adobe PDF printer. If you have a compatible version of WORD, you should still be able to even use PDF Maker with this driver. After the file is saved, open it in Distiller to create the PDF. This worked for me in a test, but is extra work for regular work and the driver may not pick up all of the normal issues of the Adobe driver.

  • Adobe acrobat 5 is not compatible with windows 7.  Need replacement that will work.

    adobe acrobat 5 is not compatible with windows 7.  need a replacement that will work.  any suggestions.

    I would recommend Acrobat 10.  You can find more details as well as a trial at http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html?promoid=JOLIR.  It should be noted though that Acrobat 5 is too old of a version to qualify for the upgrade price I am sorry.

  • Adobe Acrobat 6.0 not compatible with windows 7

    Hello,
    Some years ago I bought Adobe Acrobat 6.0 which I placed on my old computer. Now I have a new computer with windows 7 and the acrobat 6.0 version apears not compatible with this windows version. Does anyone know a solution?
    Thanks in advance.
    Best wishes,
    Arjen

    If you have Windows 7 Professional, Enterprise, or Ultimate, you can download Windows XP Mode and attempt to install Adobe Acrobat 6 in the virtual environment. Windows XP Mode uses Windows Virtual PC to run a full Windows XP Professional 32 bit environment virtually, and it is a free download. A limitation you may encounter is that the PDF printer will not be accessible from your Windows 7 programs, only from programs which are installed in the Windows XP Mode environment.
    This subject has been discussed on several forums, and while Acrobat version 6 does install and work for some users, the PDF printer does not install on Windows 7. Version 9 was the first version which was compatible with Windows 7, so if this is critical to you, you should consider upgrading to the latest version of Acrobat.

  • Is Adobe Media Server 5 Professional Compatible with Windows Server 2012?

    Hi Jorma,
    Thanks a lot for your reply.
    Does Adobe has any timeline for testing on Windows Server 2012 and for officially supporting the platform?
    Thanks again.

  • Adobe Acrobat 5.0 not compatible with Windows Vista

    On installing this software on my new Windows Vista, incompatibility message says I need to install kernel-mode print driver. Where can I get this from. No luck with the Adobe website technical support!

    Then you will need to purchase an upgrade to the current version 8.1.
    Note that Acrobat Standard would be a downgrade; to retain all your
    current features you'd need Acrobat Professional.
    Note that there was no product called Acrobat Writer, if you want to
    be exact. And you would normally have only one of "Acrobat" and
    "Acrobat Reader". To make it even more confusing, "Acrobat Reader" was
    renamed "Adobe Reader".

    It should install and it should run but, because of the age discrepancy, CS is not officially supported by Adobe on Vista.

  • Is there an update to make Acrobat Pro 6.0 compatible with Windows 7?

    I have been using Adobe Acrobat Professional 6.0 on a Windows XP OS, but as of 4/8/2014 XP is no longer supported. So, I did Easy Transfer from XP to a computer using Windows 7. When I installed my Adobe Acrobat Professional 6.0 software on the Windows 7 computer, I received a message that it was not compatible with Windows 7. Is there an update or work around that will allow me to use the 6.0 version with my Windows 7 computer?  This is software I've used daily for years and need it, but can't afford to buy new version right now. Any help would be appreciated.

    I am suggesting you keep the XP computer permanently disconnected, and have your new computer connected to the internet. You can move files between them with a memory stick.
    (Worth considering that Windows is not the only thing with security issues which need fixing. By continuing to run an old Acrobat you have been deprived of security patches for many years. Only Acrobat X and XI are in the "currently supported" category. You should consider this carefully for all your apps, the bad guys could attack ANYTHING.)

  • Adobe acrobat 7.0 professional installed on windows 8

    With the assistance of Adobe Chat I have downloaded adobe acrobat 7.0 professional to my desktop which has windows 8. Everything works beautifully except when I go on to internet explorer and try to view a pdf document. It says "This page can't be displayed". I'm sure it is just a setting somewhere, can anyone help me? Thank you, Don.

    Yes, I successfully installed Acrobat 7.0 professional on Windows 8. I’m now able to create pdf files on my Microsoft Office Suit (Word & Excel) and anytime I need to add/extract pages, etc. in these pdf files I’m able to use 7.0. My only problem was opening pdf’s on my internet explorer. I downloaded the latest version of Adobe reader and now everything works great (for my needs). I now have the choice of opening my pdf files (In “Documents”) in either 7.0 or reader, depending if I want to just read the document or work with it. I have no need to create pdf files with Adobe Acrobat 7.0 because saving documents in pdf format is a built-in feature of my Microsoft Office suit software (which is great)

  • Can acrobat 8 be made compatible with windows 8?

    can acrobat 8 be made compatible with windows8?

    An upgrade is probably needed. Have you tried to run it. Of course, after installation you would need to install any updates, particularly with a 64-bit system. It may still not work, or it may be that parts do not work. To check the parts you would have to go through various stages of testing. You will likely find some things that work and others that don't. If something does not work, then it would the time to try to find a workaround. You might get lucky, but don't expect miracles.

  • Adobe Reader v8.1.2 Compatible with Windows XP Pro SP3

    I need to know if Adobe Reader v8.1.2 is compatible with Windows XP Pro SP3.
    Thank you.

    I've been using Reader without any problems until yesterday when administrator installed Windows XP SP3. When I do a <Ctrl-P> to print, it takes about 30 to 90 seconds for the print requester to pop up. The program is locked up and not responding during the delay, although it does NOT say "Not Responding" in the title bar.<br /><br />While the delay is going, the SysInternals Process Explorer shows but fleeting milliseconds of Kernel or User time being used. Setting the priority from 8 to 13 made no improvement at all.<br /><br />I frequently print from the Reader and the delay drives me nuts! This hang-up needs to be corrected ASAP.<br /><br />I am sure it is a Reader incompatibility because it never happened before the SP3 update, the program is hung and doing nothing and everything works perfectly before and after the <Ctrl-P> is entered.<br /><br />Word or Excel do not experience similar problems. I just tried Notepad, and it sometimes hangs the same way but not nearly as long - maybe 10 seconds at the most and only the first time. After the first delay it pops right up. Adobe Reader hangs a long time every time.<br /><br />Any idea if Adobe is going to fix it or even knows the problem exists? Do they moderate or monitor complaints like this here or elsewhere?<br /><br />I don't want to think they know about it and are fixing it if they aren't.

    The problem is not with Premiere Elements, but with the Firewire driver in Windows 7.
    I wrote and article on it and have it posted on our web site.   Here is the link to it and
