Acrobat 7.1.0 Professional and Office 2000, no PDF's

Everything was working fine till this morning and has been that way for a few years. I can convert to PDF with all files except .doc files. I have the icons in place in the WORD toolbar. When I click on a CONVERT TO PDF, it prompts for the name and I supply this. It then seems to start doing the conversion and then I am left with a blank page and the file has not been converted. I have looked through all the possible causes and remedies but I am still stuck.I have re-installed OFFICE 2000 and then done DETECT & REPAIR under the help menu and also in the add/remove programs.
HELP!!
Thanks

I don't think Acrobat 7 can recognize Office 2007 files; Acrobat 7 was released way before Office 2007.

  • Distiller 5.0.5 and Office 2000 - creating pdf not working

    I am using XP Home Edition SP2, Distiller 5.0.5, and Office 2000
    Can not make PDF with 2000 WORD or 2000 EXCEL.
    - WORD: file > print > Distiller results in the conversion hanging up.  The file can not be deleted from the print que until the computer is restarted.  I can not create a postscript file by unchecking the "don't send fonts" check box and check "print to file".  Doing so results in a "prn" file.
    I can create PDF with PUBLISHER if I create a postscript file by unchecking "Dont sent fonts", checking "print to file", adding "ps" at the end of file name, then clicking on the ps file, does result in a pdf file
    I can create pdf files with file > print > distiller in PhotoShop and PaintShop Pro

    After creating the PRN file, open the file in Distiller and see if you get a PDF. If so, then look for AcroTray running in the background. If not, then you need to start it (it is in the Acrobat 5/Distiller folder).

  • Acrobat 10 comparability with Word in Office 2000

    I am still using Office 2000 (cause I like it so please don't suggest I upgrade to a newer version of Office) and having installed a new hard-drive downloaded the trial version of Acrobat X.  If I like it then planning to buy it.  When Acrobat X is installed, Word locks up during launch but if I remove Acrobat X (add/remove programs in control panel) then Word works perfectly.  This was not the case with an earlier version of Adobe on another computer (don't remember how many versions ago) but this feels like there is some new feature in Acrobat X that is incompatible with Word 2000.  The same problem happens whether I am using XP - service pack 3 or Windows 7 so I don't think this is an OS issue.  As background this machine is a Dell Latitude E5400 with an Intel P8700 dual core processor running at 2.53 Gig with 2 Gig of Ram.  Any ideas on a solution?  Does Adobe sell earlier versions of Acrobat?  Thanks,

    Does Adobe sell earlier versions of Acrobat?
         No.
    Regarding compatibility of Acrobat / MS Word versions; if using the PDFMaker installed by Acrobat you'll want to review
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/333/333504.html
    which address PDFMaker compatible applications.
    Acrobat 8 was the last version to support MS Office 2000 applications.

  • Acrobat Pro 8, Vista and Office 2007 - No PDF printer available

    Hello,
    I try to install Acrobat 8 Pro on a Vista professional based machine with office 2007 but I can't generate any PDF docs.
    I try to install acrobat with my account (group administrator) or directly with the administrator account with the same result : no PDF virtual printer was created and it's impossible to add one using an existing PDF port or by creation of a new one.
    I try to update my installation with the 8.10 update but no changes... Can someone help me with this issue ?
    Thank you.

    Here is a more complete description of my problem and the things I have tried. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    No pdf printer driver is installed. When I print from an Office 2007 saving as adobe pdf I get the following error message:
    PDFMaker cannot locate the Adobe PDF Printers printer driver. Please re-install Adobe Acrobat 8.0.
    The printer driver is in fact NOT installed. I look at the system printers and there is no PDF printer driver.
    I have re-installed several times. I called support and they wont help me because I purchased a volume license and it will cost me $40 to get support.
    I have searched user groups and Adobe knowledge bases to no avail.
    I have tried to install the driver myself with the .inf files located in the dir C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 8.0\Acrobat\Xtras\AdobePDF there are the following .inf files. None of them will install when I try to add a printer and select have disk and select any of them.
    AdobePDF.inf AdobePDFCT.inf AdobePDFK.inf
    AdobePDFCS.inf AdobePDFJ.inf
    I get the following error:
    "Printer driver was not installed. Unable to find a core driver package that is required by the printer driver package."
    The msi installer has created two printer ports Documents/*.pdf (Adobe PDF port), and Desktop/*.pdf (Adobe PDF port)

  • OVI and Office 2000

    Strange thing. Try to sync using OVI and Outlook 2000.
    All contacts are sync'ed OK.
    But for the calender only reoccouring birthdays are sync'ed.
    No other appointmens (reoccouring or normal) appear in the Outlook calender (they are on the phone).
    The phones calender is originally from an Exchange sync.
    But I can't find any differences between the birthday events and any other events.
    Look the same. Same data. But still only the birthday sync's.
    Help !
    Lars-Erik Østerud - http://www.osterud.name/nokia.html

    I think the problem has something to do with that the N8 operates with multippel calendars.
    The one synced with Outlook (via Exchange) is called "Mail for Exchange" and the other "Personlig".
    Got the same problem in Oxygen Phone Manager.
    I doesn't find and calendar entries either, and if I create a new one it ends up in the "Personlig" calendar. And then it doesn't sync with the Exchange calendar (as that only syncs "Mail for Exchange"). Complicated. I only want to sync ALL entries. Always!
    Strange though that the birthdays sync. They are in the "Mail for Exchange" calendar.
    But they migth appear because the dates are in the "Contacts" info as well....
    Anyone know how I get ONE calendar that will sync with both OVI and Mail for Exchange?

  • Acrobat Pro 7, Windows 7 and Office 2010. C: blocked by GPO. Designer application can not save. Ther

    Hello,
    Please I need some help if possible. I just recently upgraded a user to Windows 7 with Office 2010 and reinstalled her Acrobat 7. We locked down c: thru GPO, and it seems this is causing an issue when she uses Designer. She and click save or save as all she wants but nothing happens. If I log in under admin (i can see c:) everything works fine, if possible could someone lead me to the solution. We can not open c: for her, if there is a registry edit where i can change the default location that would be great.Thanks in advance.

    If the Win7 is a 64-bit system, you will need to upgrade the Acrobat to XI. AA 7 will work with Win7, 32-bit, after some playing around but will not be automatic. I am specifically referring to printing to the Adobe PDF printer. PDF Maker will definitely not work with OFFICE 2010, that requires AA X with updates as a minimum.
    For AA7, the AcroTray function will probably fail (it did for me on a 64-bit system). In fact, you will likely not even get a printer. I was able to install an HP PS printer (color should probably be selected) and change the name to the Adobe PDF printer. Then change the port to file. When you print to the printer, it will create a PS (actually listed as PRN) file that can then be opened in Distiller to complete the process of the PDF creation. For most users, this is not an obvious solution -- I even did it with AA5 on a 32-bit Win7. Because of the issues, it is strongly recommended to upgrade (at this point it is a new purchase since AA9 is needed for the upgrade at present) to AA XI. Sorry for the bad news, but AA7 is 8 years old and is ancient in software terms (OK, I still have it on some XP machines).

  • Error 20532 on Windows Vista and Office 2007

    I have a application developed in VB6, with Access 2000 as backend, using CR8.5 for reporting, running upon W2K and Office 2000. Application working correctly.
    Tested same application upon Vista and Office2007 PC. VB6 side of application working correctly. However when I select a report from within the application (report is CR 8.5), I get following error:
    Run-time error '20532'
    Cannot find database DLL.
    I re-wrote the report in question (exact duplicate of previous) in Windows 2K environment, re-tested new version on Vista & Office07, and report worked perfectly well!
    I do not want to have to re-write new versions of all reports, therefore can somebody shed some light into why the original report will not run on a Visa/Office07 PC ?

    Hi
    This error occurs since the Crystal Reports Data-Bound Control database DLL (P2bbnd.dll) is not included with a Typical installation of Crystal Reports 8.5. You will need to perform a Custom or Complete installation.
    If Crystal Reports 8.5 has already been installed:
    1. Run the Crystal Reports setup again.
    2. Click 'Add/Remove'. The 'Select Features' section appears.
    3. Expand 'Data Access'.
    4. Click 'Bound Reporting' and then click 'Entire feature will be installed on local hard drive'.
    5. Click 'Next'. The Start Installation section appears.
    6. Click 'Next' to install the driver and continue the setup to completion.
    NOTE:· For information about the runtime file requirements for Crystal Reports, refer to Knowledge Base article c2008238.
    Hope this helps!!!

  • Migrating from Office 2000 to office 2003

    I know that the personality migration is great for upgrading OS versions. Does it work the same for application upgrades as well. We are going to be upgrading workstations from Windows 2000 and Office 2000 to Windows XP and Office 2003. Will the personality migration migrate the office settings from office 2000 to Office 2003?

  • Hi I've just upgraded from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion now Quarkxpress 6.5, Adobe creative suite CS2, Adobe Acrobat 7.0 professional and Microsoft Office 2004 will nolonger open. Can anyone please advise me what I can do to get these programs running.

    Hi I've just upgraded my MacBook Pro from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion. Now my installed programs:- Quarkxpress 6.5 - Adobe creative suite CS2 - Adobe Acrobat 7.0 professional and Microsoft Office 2004 will not open - I get a banner saying not supported by power mac. Can anyone please help me I really need these programs for my work. Thank you!

    hi tuggerose
    i think it is bad new for you. if it's any consilation i went through the same thing when i loaded mountain lion when it first came out. i think the problem is that mountain lion is a pure 64bit operating system and the software you have is 32bit. earlier os's were able to emulate 32bit but the new system does not. the answer is new software. i did it and it cost me a load of money and much angst so your not alone.

  • No Adobe PDF menu in Office 2000 after installing Acrobat 9

    Hello everybody, I have an urgent problem.
    Preliminaries: I use Windows XP (SP3), with 2 GB RAM. Until yesterday, I had an installation of Adobe CS2 Premium. Acrobat 7 professional comes with the PDFMaker plug-in for Office, so I could create PDF files directly from Word... and all was well.
    But: yesterday, I installed Adobe CS4 Design Standard *without removing CS2 first* (after having made sure this was possible -- for the time being, I'll have to run Photoshop, Illustrator & InDesign CS2 'parallel' to their CS4 cousins, as I'm in the middle of a large project). I was aware of the fact that Acrobat is a 'jealous' program, and that installing Acrobat 9 Pro (which is shipped with my version of CS4) would uninstall ('upgrade', the CS4 installer calls it) the previous version of Acrobat. OK, no problem... or so I thought.
    However, I now no longer have an "Adobe Acrobat" menu or tool bar in Word (nor in Excel, nor in any other Office 2000 application). Apparently, the PDFMaker plug-in isn't installed (or doesn't work with Office 2000?).
    So -- what should I do? There's a PDFMaker folder in the Acrobat 9 folder tree, but I have absolutely no idea how to proceed. Is there any way to install the plug-in manually?
    And, if the PDFMaker plug-in does not work with Office 2K, are ther any other Office plugins out there to help me create PFD files directly from Word?
    Any help is highly appreciated.

    Just a quick follow up; I had seen several fixes that directed the user to click on the help menu, then choose "disabled items" then enable the pdf item...the only problem was that when I clicked on the Help menu, there was nothing referencing "disabled items"! In frustration, I finally called Adobe tech support, and the person I spoke with had me click on Help, then About Microsoft Office Word...lo and behold! at the bottom right was a button labeled "disabled items". Problem solved; hope at least one person reads this and avoids the frustration of looking for something in the wrong place.
    Ok, so it wasn't a quick follow-up...sorry!

  • Acrobat 9 Pro w/ Office 2000 Observation

    Having installed Acrobat 9 Professional I find that the Convert to Adobe PDF buttons (PDF Maker) are no longer are present in any Office applications (Word, Excel or Outlook). They dont exist as available tool bar options. Reading the help file it appears that this feature should be available.
    Ive done a Repair of Acrobat 9 as well as a re-install. Ive also renamed the Word normal.dot file and re-booted. Nothing has helped. Reading recent postings and FAQs I find information about previous versions of Acrobat but nothing current. The print to Adobe PDF functions correctly.
    Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Isn't there a way (plug-in) to allow support for office 2000?
    Is support removed for office 2003 as well?
    (it is, I believe a wrong and unjustified decision to remove support for office 2000)

  • Acrobat 9.0 Pro and Office 2008 updates download but won't install

    I hope I'm not alone experiencing the following difficulties installing third party patches and updates and that someone who reads this may recognize the problem…and its solution. I've run Adobe Updater (6?) for CS4 Design Standard which includes Acrobat 9.0 Professional, and subsequently, Microsoft Autoupdate for Office 2008 v12.0.1, but find that neither will install the downloaded updates which disappear immediately after an (unsuccessful) installation attempt.
    Disk space is not a problem (500GB HD) nor is memory (4GB RAM); I'm using OS 10.6.4 (10F569) which is the most current set of OS updates I can locate. I had successfully been running CS4 with Adobe's most recent patches (e.g. P'Shop 11.0.2 and Acrobat 9.3.3) until the 9.3.4 patch failed to install with the message that +"Safari and Acrobat apps must be closed in order to proceed"+—they were closed as was everything else that wasn't essential according to a check of the Acitivity Window. A grab of the alert panel reads:
    +"AcroProUPd934_all Update Failed: The Patch has failed because the application has been modified since it was originally installed (for example, plug-ins may have been disabled). Please go to the Adobe support website for more information regarding how to re-enable disabled components prior to installing the patch, or you can uninstall and reinstall the application, and then reinstall the patch."+
    Of course, uninstalling CS4 and reinstalling the entire suite of apps reverts all of them to their original versions, now none of them will accept an update…whether manually downloaded and fed to it or by using Adobe's most recent AutoUpdater. The most consistent message is an alert panel stating that in order to continue, Safari and Acrobat applications must be closed—which they are.
    Not surprisingly, after nearly 8 hours on a cell phone with Adobe Tech Support in Delhi, 5 different techs and a manager, the case remains open a week later; it seems +"no one has ever seen or heard of this problem before"+ and an overly apologetic manager could only repeat +"it's [Adobe] policy to remove all copies of CS4 from existence once CS5 is introduced."+ While we waited for 500MB of updates to download more than once, a helpful tech suggested I'd have more luck finding a used copy of CS4 on the net than getting a link to another download from Adobe.
    With regard to Microsoft Office 2008, I'd been running v12.0.1 and the MS Autoupdate app has tried to download and install v12.1.0 (and those which follow) but when installation is attempted, an alert panel reads:
    +"There is a problem with the Office database. Office might be unable to access the data base or the database file might be damaged. Without the database, you might be unable to use the Address Book, Scrapbook, and other features that store your personal information. To rebuild the database, Open Microsoft Office 2008/Office, and then open the Microsoft Database Utility. For more information, open the Database Utility application, and on the Help menu, click Database Utility Help."+
    All attempts to rebuild the database fail, noting…
    +ERROR: Failed to open database [Head]+
    +ERROR: Corruption opening database [16003:""]+
    ======================
    +Scan Ended+
    ====================
    Two hours on the phone with a relentlessly pleasant Nova Scotian tech for Microsoft revealed little but the suggestion that +"the app doesn't seem to be able to recognize your hard drive. I've never seen this problem before."+
    With luck, perhaps someone reading this far recognizes the issue and can offer a solution? It will be gratefully received! Thanks,
    David

    Disk space is not a problem (500GB HD)
    How much space is available out of the 500GB?
    Have you tried any of the following:
    Disconnect all peripherals from your computer. Boot from your install disc & run _*Repair Disk*_ from the utility menu. To use the Install Mac OS X disc, insert the disc, and restart your computer while holding down the C key as it starts up.
    Select your language.
    Once on the desktop, select Utility in the menu bar.
    Select *Disk Utility.*
    Select the disk or volume in the list of disks and volumes, and then click *First Aid.*
    Click _*Repair Disk.*_
    Restart your computer when done.
    Repair permissions after you reach the desktop-http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25751 and try the installations again.

  • Acrobat and Office 2007

    hello,
    I've got office 2007 installed and i have been able to make the "save as" pdf work.  i've installed acrobat 8 professional and when i open word 2007 i have a tab for adobe and under that i have the option for create pdf.  when i click on that everything starts out fine when it attempts to print to the PDF printer in gets hung up and locks up word.
    I've uninstalled acrobat and reinstalled with the same result when I attempt to create a pdf.
    does anyone have a fix for this?
    thanks in advance.

    Try using the Microsoft product for Office 2007 instead of Acrobat

  • Excel activex call changes between Office 2000 and Office XP. How does one manage that?

    I have several Active X calls from within a VI. One in particular is
    the Excel Cell Value property node in Office 2000. MS has decided to
    call it Excel Cell Value2 in Office XP.
    I have built and exe on a machine with Office 2000 and can run the code
    on a machine with Office XP, but I can not build on the machine with
    Office XP. I can also run a VI with that call
    on the Office XP box, but if I mass compile the VI I get the broken arrow.
    I guess I am confuesed as to why it can run but not compile. If the
    ActiveX call is not there for the compile why is it there for the run?
    If I can expect this does it work in reverse where I
    build on an Office XP box and run on a Office 2000 box?

    These problems you are experiencing do stem from the ActiveX changes between Excel versions.  When you mass compile LabVIEW checks to see if everything is linked correctly, including ActiveX portions of your code.  Since there are slight changes the LabVIEW compiler detects something is wrong, but cannot isolate the problem.  You might need to force a recompile of that VI.  Check out this link.

  • Report generation toolkit problem with office 2000 and office XP

    Hello, I am having a problem with running my vi after it is compiled with application builder. The dev machine is an XP box and the targer is windows 2000. I included _Excel Dynamic VIs.vi and _Word Dynamic VIs.vi from the office 2000 section of the install cd (for the report toolkit) in the compile but did not include those files for XP. When I run the application on the target machine (2000), the reporting functions call Excel just fine and the program does not come up with any errors. The program however, is not loading the approprate template and inserting the approprate data. Did I leave some neccessary files out of the compile? Thanks in advance!

    Hi Acer,
    The recommended procedure in your case is to install Microsoft Office 2000 on the development machine and then reinstall the LabVIEW Report Generation Toolkit. When the toolkit is installed, it will check for the current version of Office and install the corresponding VIs to support it. The VIs include different ActiveX calls according to the version of Office. Therefore it is not enough to change the support manually without having the correct version of Office installed first.
    However, I would recommend that you just try to run your executable on a machine that has Office 2000 installed. The difference in the ActiveX API for Office XP and 2000 is not that significant, so your application might work perfectly on an Office 2000 machine. If you try to run the executable on a machine with Office 97 installed I'm willing to bet my right arm that you will experience errors.
    Good luck Acer!
