Acrobat 7 Professional - PDF Maker

I encounter a problem trying to create a PDF from file option in Acrobat, choosing a Word document. It will begin to process the Word document, but then dissappear - no visible dialog within the Acrobat application window. The same thing will happen in the 'from multiple files' option. It will build from a Excel file and from some small Word documents. It will build a from within the Word application. Anyone have an answer why it does not work in Acrobat?
Environment: Windows XP SP3; Acrobat 7.1.0 Pro; MS Office 2003 Pro

Sorry, but I still do not see any comment in your original post that it worked directly from WORD and failed in Acrobat. You say some small files work fine from Acrobat. For the larger files that fail, do they succeed if you print from WORD. If the print works, do they work form WORD if you use PDF Maker? I have asked about specific processes of creating the PDF and you have only said it works from WORD. How did you create the file from WORD -- print or PDF Maker?

  • Use Acrobat Professional to make text editable in Adobe Reader

    Hello,
    I have a .pdf document that needs to be edited.
    There are certain fields in the .pdf that needs to be editable in Adobe Reader.
    For example; we need information from other companies in that .pdf.
    It says "[company name]", can I make it in a certain way with Acrobat professional so that when our client clicks in that field it that he can type there.
    Is this possible with Acrobat Professional?
    Thank you!

    Thank you for your reply! It worked!
    One more question (please also check the attached picture for this question): Can I make it in a way that the text moves when I type something longer then the box?
    Thanks!

  • Acrobat XI PDF maker files missing

    Have just installed XI. I run Win7 and 32bit Office 2010. PDF export ribbon in showing in word and you can create pdf from this.
    The problem arises if you use the right click 'create pdf' function. More importantly, when using the merge multiple files to PDF function. In both cases it works ok with excel but fails on word (in the case of the merge multiple file function all other types f file go in but the word file fails)
    I get he message 'PDF maker files missing'. It suggests a repair that I have tried but that doesn't help.
    I have checked the COM add in isn't disabled. It's not.
    Just can't get this working. Help!!!

    Is it that none of the right click options are not working (Create PDF, Create PDF and Email or Combine only)?
    Try converting the word file by dragging and dropping the file to Acrobat interface/icon.
    Are you able to convert the word document to PDF from Acrobat Ribbon (Acrobat-> Create PDF) from within the word application?
    Is the issue with a particular word file or happening with all the word files?

  • Adobe Acrobat 8 PDF Maker

    How do I install PDF Maker (Adobe Acrobat 8) on WIndows 8.1 64bit. During the installation, it gave me error saying that it was missing a a ".dll" file.
    Acrobat 8 installed fine and everything works except there is no PDF print driver.

    How do I upgrade Acrobat 8.0 to 8.1. I tried running "check for upgrades" in the help menu but the systems says no updates are availabe. Is there a download ink where I can download updates?
    In fact, I have Acrobat 8.3.1 installed on Windows XP. I had upgraded this from 8.0 a while ago. It would appear the upgrades are no longer available?

  • Word, Acrobat 9 Pro Extended and PDF Maker

    I am still using Acrobat 9 Pro Extended and I also have Office 2010 installed on my Windows 7 laptop. Is there a way to get PDF Maker to work in Office? Right now when I open Word for example the PDF tab does not appear anywhere. I tried running the repair feature in Acrobat but nothing has changed.
    I believe Office needs to be installed first then Acrobat so PDF Maker can be installed. I did this intially when I had Office 2007 but then I unintalled it and installed Office 2010 and I'm guessing that is why things aren't working. Am I going to need to reinstall Acrobat 9 Pro Extended?

    Acrobat 9.x is not compatible with MS Office 2010

  • Adobe PDF maker add-in for Word 2010 adding strange numbers to headings

    Hi everyone,
    I used the Adobe PDF maker add-in for Word 2010 to export a Word document to pdf. After saving the pdf, I noticed that the headings that are displayed in the navigaton pane now contain strange numbers, eg.
    1.1 14BSecond level heading
    1.2 15BSecond level heading
    The above should be:
    1.1 Second level heading
    1.2 Second level heading
    It's doing this for all second level headings in the document and when I save as a pdf file, these numbers are showing in the pdf bookmarks.
    Does anyone know if this is a known bug with the pdf add-in and if yes, if there's any way to remove the numbers?
    Thanks in advance.

    I am experiencing a somewhat similar problem. In my case the unwanted numbers are being prepended to the running headers at the tops of the pages.
    So for example, I have some Heading 1 text that says Verifying the Required Account Settings. But in the running header, this shows as 11BVerifying the Required Account Settings.
    Unlike the original poster, the 11B does not appear in the text itself - only in the PDF generated by Acrobat's PDF Maker.
    This occurs with this document when output from either Word 2007 or Word 2010 and Acrobat X.
    Any suggested fixes?    ...pt

  • How many Licenses of Acrobat Professional do I need for Adobe LC PDF Generator

    Hi,
    At our customer site we have purchased 6 licenses of Adobe LiveCycle PDF Generator and have recieved a license file with the keys for Adobe LiveCycle PDF Generator and Adobe Acrobat Professional. We bought the license from a reseller of the product. We understand that the Adobe LiveCycle PDF Generator is a server based software and needs 1 license per CPU. Each of our server (Dev, Val & Prod) have 2 CPU's so we have sufficient licenses (6). We are under the impression that this would suffice. How ever we are not sure on how many licenses we need for Acrobat Professional.
    Here is a brief description of the way we would use Adobe LiveCycle PDF Generator. We are deploying a PLM system and one of the requirement is to render Word documents to PDF so we are using PDF Generator for this capability. On our Adobe servers we will install Microsoft Word, Acrobat Professional V9 Extended and the Adobe Livecycle PDF Generator. We will have around 150 users for the PLM system being deployed. The PLM system is a Web based system which means the PLM application server will be running on a Solaris server in our case. As part of the workflows in the PLM system, at the end of the workflow process, the PLM server would trigger a request to the Adobe server to convert the word document to PDF. The Adobe server processess the request and returns the PDF file that gets generated.
    Based on the above usage of the system how many licenses of Acrobat Professional do we need? We will be installing Acrobat only on the server where we install the Livecycle PDF Generator. We had a call with our purchasing person today and she cautioned us that for Adobe Acrobat Professional we might need 1 license per user of the PLM system. She has asked us to check this with the Vendor of the product. Somehow I don't think it makes sense to purchase so many Acrobat Professional licenses even though we install only once.
    So can someone tell me How does the licensing for Adobe Livecycle PDF Generator work? How many Acrobat Professional licenses we actually need? Is it based on the number of users in the system that is triggering the request? Appreciate your response on this.
    Regards,
    Ragha

    You really should talk to your Adobe Sales Rep about this.  There are all kinds of special deals, licenses and such for customers using LiveCycle.  (For instance the license for PDFG may include Acrobat licenses for certain uses).

  • In Acrobat Professional 8, what is the best way to insert/combine multiple pdf's together in a large

    In Acrobat Professional 8, what is the best way to insert/combine multiple pdf's together in a large volume?
    We have 300 pdf reports and need to insert a 2 page cover page infront of each report. Not sure if Batch processing is best???
    Thanks for any tips.

    Probably each cover page is different too. I would probably just bite the bullet and do each individually. I would create the 2 cover pages in WORD or other word processor and print to cover.pdf. Then open a PDF and Pages>Insert Pages or the cover.pdf to the front of the open PDF and save as to the current PDF. Then repeat 299 times. Each time you would make the appropriate change to the DOC file and print a new cover.pdf file (you might want to turn off open in Acrobat for this processing in the printer properties to save time). Probably a good idea to keep a list of the files to check off what has been done (you can generate a list in DOS by Start>cmd, change the directory to your location [cd path], and do "dir >>list.txt". That will give you a list to use.). There may be an easier way, but by the time you get it figured out you might be done this way.

  • Acrobat 7.0 professional pdf binders issue

    I have adobe acrobat 7.0 professional and this feature
    stopped working:: to make a pdf of multiple files, like word docs.
    it does compined many esisting PDFs into one binder, not like it
    used to do to combine several mixed docments to a PDF binder. I had
    my company IT dept reinstall, and I still get errors, to run in
    repair mode, then still does not work.
    OS: Windows XP;
    Browser: IE
    Already Tried:
    IT look at and reinstall,

    I just answered this question in http://forums.adobe.com/message/4251547#4251547. Basically you should be able to create a PDF (assuming you are not using a 64-bit system and then I have no clue), but not in the automated way you are used to doing. The first step would be to change the printer port for the Adobe PDF printer (assuming the driver got installed) to file. Then when you print or use PDF Maker, it will ask you for the file name. It will create a PS file (may have a prn extension) that you have to open in Distiller to complete the rest of the conversion. A bit of extra work, but workable. You are looking at a Win7 issue that has caused major problems for many software vendors, not just Adobe. The newer versions of Windows seem to ignore a lot of compatibility needs. Don't forget that with VISTA they had to add the help system back in because their own MS Office needed it.

  • Acrobat Professional hangs when converting word to PDF

    I am using Acrobat Professional version 7 and when i use the Convert to PDF option for a large word document it goes through the motions of converting the document but then seems to hang and i get no PDF document created. Also the Word document then says read only in the title as well.
    It works fine for small word documents just not large files with pictures.
    I have tried uninstalling Acrobat Prof and Office 2003 and re-installing both and it makes no difference.
    Can anyone provide any information on what i can try to fix this issue as
    i am out of ideas.
    Thanks
    Lawrence

    Empty the TEMP folder or print to the Adobe PDF printer. The latter might be worth trying to be sure things are working.
    You may have to uncheck a lot of the options in the PDF Maker preferences, particularly tags. Keep in mind that large graphics require a lot of disk space in the translation as the PS format is not very memory efficient for graphics (at least from what I have seen). You might also make a copy of the DOC file and then select a graphic and choose format. In the lower left corner of the general tab is a compress button. Try that to reduce the graphics resolution and see if that solves the problem.

  • Acrobat 6.0 Pro PDF Maker & CutePDF

    Hi there,
    I have Acrobat 6.0 Professional installed on my computer (Windows XP). I recently had CutePDF installed on my system as well. Since this, my Acrobat PDF Maker will not create a PDF (from Excel 2002) as it used to. It freezes up part way through the conversion.
    Any way to get Acrobat to make me PDFs without removing CutePDF?
    Thanks!

    You need to go through and see where the bottleneck is. It may be simplest to do a repair in the control panel.
    If you want to check, start by printing to the Adobe PDF printer. If that does not work, try a print to file and then open the file in Distiller. If the 2 part process works, then you likely have a problem with AcroTray not running. Simply be sure it is in your startup menu. You can also simply start it from the Distiller folder.
