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

  • Acrobat 8 Pro and Office 2007 Problem

    I posted this in the CS3 forum originally. They told me to post here too.
    Issue:
    When logged in as a local user (no admin rights) Word 2007 will crash the whole computer when you type a key.
    The reason I am posting on Adobe forums is that this only happens when CS3 is installed as well on the same computer.
    Troubleshooting:
    Both products work fine as a local user account, if only one or the other are installed.
    During login, Acrobat Pro will display a MSI/Installer progress bar for about 30secs. After I updated Acrobat to 8.1.3, that stops, but the Word crashing problem doesn't.
    When starting Office, setup runs everytime. It shows just a progress bar and goes for about 1min.
    On a doc, if I wait about 5min and don't do anything. A MSI install progress bar will run for "MS Office 2007 Pro", this will re-spawn for several mins. until it finally stops. After that, Word IS usable.
    No other problems with CS3.
    Fully updated both CS3 and Office 2007
    This could very well be an Office issue, but it is associated with CS3 also being installed on the same computer.
    Any help would be great!

    Forgot again! Using XP Pro sp2 and sp3.

  • Acrobat and Access 2007

    I got 2 problems, when i have an access 2007 report and use the function "create and attach to email", on the following mail window, i want that the transmission confirmation and the return receipt check boxes are activated already, unfortunately Outlook 2007 settings have nothing to do with it.
    Well, i have to send 40-50 reports each day by email, so it's kinda annoying to hit those 2 check boxes for every mail.
    Another problem, after i've sent the mail, the mailwindow isn't closing automatically, i have to close it every time by hitting the X button. Thats annoying too.
    Before, i used Acrobat 7 and Office 2003, and the mail window was closed after sending each time, now with Acrobat 9 and Office 2007 it isn't anymore :(
    Anyone got a solution for these problems?
    Kind regards and merry xmas.
    Chris

    The first problem which you mentioned is more likely a MS Outlook bug. Try this. Launch Word and open any document. Now go to 'Office Button-> Send-> Email' option. This will create a new mail window with attached word document. Now check the options for transmission confirmation and the return receipt in the mail. Both of them are unchecked. So it's outlook which is not honoring the settings. This behavior is reproducible from MS Access as well (Office button-> Email option). Please check with MS support on this issue. Thanks.

    Agree, this looks like an interaction between Acrobat 8 and Microsoft Office. The symptom you used to see (prior to 8.1.3) was probably Acrobat's "self-healing" process trying to fix something in Office, probably related to the PDFMaker feature that is installed into Office. Perhaps you have a somewhat unconventional installation of Office 2007 with custom registry settings?
    Also, you mention that Word "crashes the whole computer" - are you referring to a BSOD or what? Word (and the Acrobat plug-ins for PDFMaker) don't go into any protected mode that can cause a full system crash. Very strange!

  • Adobe v9 on W7 and office 2007. cannot create PDF from MS word using Adobe. But can from Excel, PPT

    Adobe v9 on W7 and office 2007. cannot create PDF from MS word using Adobe. But can from Excel, PPT and other MS office apps. Reinslalled Adobe, updated Office, and Adobe no help! Also I can create a pdf from the MS Word and it is using the Adobe 9. So one would think that's good. No it isn't when you need to combine different files to one big PDF document. Any suggetions? Thank you

    Yes, I’m saying that I can in WORD use “Save As ADOBE pdf” but cannot in ADOBE create a pdf file from a WORD (.doc or .docx) document. While I can from other MS Office apps like Excel and PowerPoint.
    I understand I can use “work around” and save doc in WORD as pdf then compile all files needed (xml, ppt, pdf) in the ADOBE v9. to one big pdf document. But that is not the point of this post.

  • Having problems with OPA 10 and office 2007 templates

    Hi,
    I have a OPA 10 and office 2007 set up which is having some issues with the macros. Seems to me that the visual basic code is not kicking off really well sometimes. I am trying to map the sequence which leads to the errors and I believe that the issue is around opening an old word doc which has a old template version (.dot). This may be the cause for OPA getting lost when working with word 2007.
    For example, I ask to open a rules doc and the visual basic tells me that OPA couldn't open the doc but word is opening the doc anyway. However none of the toolbar commands work as well as I can 't save the doc etc.
    Have you experienced any issue with OPA 10 and Office 2007? Any special word configuration? Should i go back to office 2003?
    BTW, I have both dotm and dot templates loaded as add-ins in word. The dotm toolbar looks good but the dot toolbar is a bit strange in 2007.
    Cheers,
    Paulo

    Hi Paulo,
    Have a look at the following tips from Davin Fifield about troubleshooting the toolbar.
    Sometimes when using Oracle Policy Modeling, Microsoft Word documents that are part of a Policy Modeling project may appear without the OPA toolbar (in Office 2003) or OPA options on the Add-Ins ribbon (in Office 2007) when opened in Microsoft Word.
    This problem can be caused by various factors.
    Here are the top three troubleshooting steps to try to recover from this situation.
    1. With your project open in Oracle Policy Modeling, run Update Oracle Policy Templates from the Tools menu. This will attempt to make sure the correct Word template is attached to each project Word document that is not currently excluded from the build. Open a Word document to see if the toolbar/ribbon is now displayed correctly. If not, continue to step 2.
    2. Try changing the UI language for your project. To do this, choose Options, from the Tools menu in Oracle Policy Modeling. Select Environment. Selet General. Under Authoring UI Language, choose a language other than your preferred UI language, and click OK. Then repeat these steps to revert to your preferred language. Open a Word document to see if the toolbar/ribbon is now displayed correctly. If not, continue to step 3.
    3. Open one of the Word documents in your Policy Modeling project. Run the macro UpdateToolbar: In Word 2007, choose the View ribbon, then select Macros/View Macros, highlight the UpdateToolbar macro, then choose Run.
    Does this resolve your issue?

  • Spinning rainbow wheel for long periods on File Open commands in Acrobat and Office 365 programs

    Hardware & Software:
    MacBook Pro (17-inch, Mid 2009)
    77GB of free hard disk space
    8GB RAM
    Running OS X Yosemite (Version 10.10.2)
    Over the last few days, when I try to execute a File Open command from Adobe Acrobat or Office 365 programs (even from an innocuous location such as Documents), I get the spinning rainbow wheel for long periods of time (10 seconds to minutes) before I am able to select a file to open. I copied messages from Console after a File Open command for each of Adobe Acrobat and Excel (the selected location was Documents), given below:
    Excel Log Messages

    Can anyone give me an idea of what these messages mean and how I can solve this problem?
    If I'm not in the correct Community for this question, could someone kindly tell me where I should re-post?
    Thanks.
    David Walker

    Yes; I have previously connected to an iMac at this location using File Sharing.  However, in my attempts to solve this problem last week, I had already unchecked File Sharing in System Preferences.  Tonight, I also deleted the folder from the window in the File Sharing System Preferences page, then rebooted.  The problem still persists.
    I try not open files across a server line, i.e., I try always to copy a file to the local computer and open it there.  I may have gotten careless and tried to open a file from the Windows server with either or both Acrobat and Office 365.  Although this was an SMB share, is it possible that these programs are now trying to connect to the Windows server on a File Open?
    I had about decided to quit chasing this problem; we spend about two weeks every two months at this Boston location, and I'll be returning to my Florida home this weekend.  So I decided I would see what the situation was when I returned to my native habitat, although I may be chasing this problem again in our trip to the Boston area in April.
    The other thing I wondered (I guess I can't quite let it go), is whether there is a command line in Terminal that would kill all AFP shares.
    In any case, thanks for your help; you're very knowledgeable.

  • Internet Exporer 8 and Office 2007 Supported?

    We currently have a client running BOE XI R2, and they are considering deploying Internet Explorer 8 and Office 2007.  They use Web Intelligence as their main reporting environment.
    Does anyone know if IE 8 and Office 2007 are officially supported at any BOE version?  I have been unable to find the Supported Platforms document on the new SAP site.
    Thank you in advance for your help!

    Hello Tim,
    What SP/FP are you on?
    In any case, Office 2007 is supported on SP5. IE 8 is not supported. The newest supported version of IE is 7.
    The Support Platforms document is available at the Business Object Article site [here|Articles].

  • Pub 6.4 and Office 2007 file extensions.

    Hello all,
    I had an issue pop up recently regarding ALUI 6.5.1, Publisher 6.4, and Office 2007 files.
    Our user base was upgraded to Office 07 several months ago, and we modified our crawlers to handle the new file extensions. We also have a Publisher portlet where users can post various for sale items; kind of a company bulletin board. This portlet uses the News template and sometimes users will attempt to publish a Word or Excel document link to accompany their for sale item. The portlet will publish okay, but when we click on the doc link we get a pop up window that shows the file name with a .ZIP extension and not the correct .DOCX or .XLSX extension. Of course the file does not open either.
    Other than instructing users to save files in the older format/name, is there a way for Publisher 6.4 to support the new file extensions of Office 07? Would this work in Pub 6.5?
    Thanks for any help.

    Any solution to this?
    We are on Publisher 6.5 and are getting the same error.
    I'm assuming this is an issue with the Publisher mime-types (which aren't the same as the general portal mime-types) not being set for the new extensions?
    But it is curious that it is redoing them as .zip files!

  • RoboHelp x5 and Office 2007

    Does anyone know if you are able to operate RoboHELP x5 and Office 2007 without it shutting down with errors.  Currently we have a help system set up and we were updated to Office 2007 late March.  We are now having quite a few difficulties making changes to documents that needed updates.  Usually the documents were loaded as MS Word docs and then during compiling transformed to .html files.  Now with the Office 2007, RoboHELP doesn't want to import any documents because of the fact that X5 doesn't support Office 2007.  Is it possible to import the files as .html files instead to sidestep this issue?   Any help here would be greatly appreciated as I am a new user of RoboHELP with limited people who know how this program works.
    Thanks!

    Not a chance. Sorry but you will have to upgrade.

  • Application Virtualization 4.6 (SoftGrid) Acrobat Pro 9.2 and Office 2007

    I'm actually trying to sequence Acrobat Pro 9.2 together with Office 2007 in a dynamic suite composition with Application Virtualization 4.6 RC.
    I can sequence both applications and deploy them to the client. Everything seems to work fine, except the Acrobat plug-in in office. When I start Word or another office application, i can see the tab "Acrobat" and can choose the option to create a PDF of the actual document. If the Office application was started the first time since the logon, the PDF is going to be created as it should... no error. If I'd like to create a second PDF an error occures, saying that Adobe Acrobat can't be used because it's not activated (Its a volume license installation). The same error when I close and start the office application again. When I log off and log in, it works again the first time. Starting Acrobat without Office (independent) everything works and no such error appears. The Problem is that, the virtual application resides active (in use) in the App-V console after closing (maybe thats a normal behavior when two packages are dependent in a dynamic suite composition...).
    I think there's a problem with the combination of App-V and the licensing system used by Adobe. Is it possible to install the licensing component seperately from Acrobat (during the sequencing a FlexNet service were identified? I could not find appropriate setup files to do so... Maybe its possible to solve the problem by installing the licensing component localy on the computer and then the virtualized application uses this component to check the license status or whatever is going to be checked...
    Thanks for any hint...

    The first problem is probably a permissions issue. Run Repair Permissions from the Disk Utility. For the second see this
    Announcement: Known Acrobat Issues under Snow Leopard
    Hide Details
    (1) The Adobe PDF Printer module does not work under OS X.6. Please see http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/509/cpsid_50981.html to find out how to create Adobe Quality PDFs under Snow Leopard.
    (2) Opening files from the finder, including files authored by Adobe applications, may not open them in the original authoring application. Omitting a file extension from the file name will increase the likelihood of this happening. See http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/511/cpsid_51110.html for more information.

  • Acrobat 9 Pro and Office 2007 - Incompatibility??

    I have been reading comments on other forums about a compatibility issues between these two softwares. See Amazon product feedback reviews on Acrobat 9 Pro for example.
    Is this a issue users here are experiencing?.

    Some of what I saw was someone coming to AA9 from AA5. For OFFICE 2007 he had no choice if he wanted the PDF Maker functionality. There is likely an issue, possibly with either AA9 or OFFICE not being updated. Being sure you are up to date is important. Currently AA9 appears to have no updates, only an add-on. However, it may be that OFFICE 2007 has updates, in fact likely. The bottom line is that the complaints did not provide enough information to see if it was an AA9 problem, MS problem, or a user problem. Enough folks seem to have survived the transition successfully, it is a good chance that the latter problem may be the issue in that forum.
    The comment on support is not new in concept. That has been a complaint for as long as I can remember with past versions too. I think it was with AA5 that I started coming to the forum, and that was the move that saved me a lot of time and frustration (other than I now spend a lot of time on the forum).
    For comments about compatibility, I would search this forum and see what others have had problems with and the solutions that have been suggested. I think you will get a much better feel for the compatibility. Two of the comments on the link praised the software.

  • Acrobat 8.1 and Office 2007/2010 Professional

    I have a user stating she can't create PDF's from within Acrobat 8.1 Professional. When she selects Create pdf -> From File and selects a word document from her desktop, it gives her the following message: "Unable to open document...Please check to see if you have read permission for the above file". I was able to create the pdf by using Word's save as function. Her machine is Windows 7 with Office 2007. A similiar situation happened to another user who has Windows XP/Office 2010, when he attempts to create pdf using the same method above, he gets the following message: "Missing PDFMaker files". The Acrobat plugin is not disabled. Anyone have any ideas?

    Big difference between 2007 and 2010 verisons of WORD. Also, you need to update AA8 to have hope of getting Acrobat to work in Win 7. Adobe will tell you to upgrade to AA X with Win 7 (they do not support AA8 with Win 7, but several folks have gotten it to work in the 32-bit version of Win 7). Any operations for AA8 in Win 7 are always a potential for failure. However, first try to print to the Adobe PDF printer from WORD. That should work with either 2007 or 2010. With AA8, that is ALL you can do with OFFICE 2010, nothing more.
    With OFFICE 2007 you may be able to get things to work. You need to insure PDF Maker is active in WORD -- it shows as an Adobe menu item. If that does not show, then you will have to activate the macro in WORD. If you get the macro working, you may be able to use that menu to create a PDF. If that works, then you have a chance of opening a DOC file in Acrobat. If PDF Maker does not work, then you can not open a DOC file in Acrobat.

  • 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.
    http://acrobathelp.blogspot.com/2008/01/adobe-acrobat-8.html
    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)
    I have tried Uninstalled and reinstalled several times. I have also tried repair several times
