Adding "PDF Maker 7.0" to Word Toolbar

"PDF Maker 7.0" isn't on my Word toolbar for selection and inclusion on the header and I need to know how to install. It does appear on Excel and other programs.

What version of WORD. If it is WORD 2007 you can't.

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

PDF Maker Tab missing, Convert Word to PDF w/ Hyperlinks TOC

Hello all,
I have been reading documents for days and still do not have any answers. Obviously frustrated, but still going strong.
Here is my situation, we have word documents that we are converting to PDF that have TOCs/ Hyperlinks and Bookmarks in that are not converting to the PDFs. The guests will be viewing these documents in a PDF reader.
I am using MS Word 2013 and Acrobat XI Pro on Windows 7 Professional 32-bit.
Everything I read keeps talking about a Adobe Tab in Office. I have checked to make sure the add-in is selected but nothing appears.
Please help, I just talked our company into spending the money for Adobe and now it is not working.
Thank you for your help,

Certainly you need the Acrobat tab in Office, it's that which you need to focus on fixing.
Have you applied all updates to Acrobat XI? What version do you currently have (11.x.y)?

PDF-maker causing Word runtime error crash since Acrobat update

Acrobat X updated last week, and the first time I used it it asked me whether to enable the PDF-maker plugin/add-on. I said yes, and ever since, about every second time I open Word I get a runtime error and it crashes. The Acrobat toolbar is not available at this point in Word (2003), and I can't find anywhere to disable the PDF-maker plugin in either Word or Acrobat. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

PDF Maker freezes

Hi all,
When I am creating the printed documentation, I am creating first a docx and from it, using the pdf Maker, I get a pdf.
I do it this way because I can easily edit the document in Word before making a pdf.
At my latest project though, I could not create a pdf from a docx because the pdf Maker would freeze. It would get very slow and then it would freeze completely.
I call the pdf Maker the addin from Word that transforms a Word document into a pdf document.
Did anybody else experience this problem till now?
Are there any fixes to this?
Thank you,
Bogdan
PS Sorry, I forgot to mention. I am using RH7.

Hi Peter,
Thank you for your answer.
By disabled items you mean, addins?
The Adobe addin is enabled and it starts fine, the ending is the problem as it does not for some reason.
Something in the Word document, I guess, makes it stall. It does not give any error message or such, it just does not do anything.
If I try closing the Word document, it says something about not responding anymore, interrupts the whole thing, and restarts Word.
It is also asking me if I want to disable the Adobe addin to which if I make the mistake to say Yes, I will have a lot of trouble in reactivating it, as it does not want to do it so easily, so I answer No.
If I try again, it starts normally, continues for a while (very slowly though compared to other times) and then stalls again.
I will try to install the addin again, however I do not see anything bad in it as it has the same behaviour in RH7 (on a machine that does not have RH8 installed) and in RH8.

How to remove PDF Maker toolbars from Office/Word/Outlook ??

Cannot find a solution for this anywhere:
Using:
- CS 3 Design Suite with Acrobat installed (going to Control Panel > Add/Remove/Change CS3, no options available for Acrobat, only install/re-install)
- Office 2003.
The annoying toolbar appears in Outlook and Word, tried registry hacks, 'Templates & Add-ins' (no option to uncheck PDF Maker).
Can't get rid of it.
Any help?

You go back to the repair and remove the PDF Maker option in the install. Basically to not get that option on install, you would have done a custom install and disabled PDF Maker. Unless you are really super annoyed, I would suggest you just leave them there as it is likely that in the future you will want them to be able to transfer links, bookmarks, and such (it is needed for that functionality).

PDF maker issue in Leopard and Word 2004

I just upgraded from 10.4 to 10.5.8, Acrobat Pro 8.1.6, Word 2004 (11.3.8). When using Word in 10.4, the PDF Maker toolbar worked fine. Now in Leopard, using the PDF Maker button, I get an error that the printer is not present. But it is there and I can print to Acrobat printer fro the print menu of any app. I tried repair acrobat installation from the Acrobat help menu. But that keeps telling me I have Safari or a Microsoft app open when all are closed.
Thoughts?

Repair the printer subsystem not needed/done in Leopard according to other sources.
I tried:
Start-up in safe mode
new test account with no login items
repair permissions
maintenance tasks
still, I get the message from Acrobat that I need to quit MS or Safari apps.
Very strange!

How to get PDF icons out of Word Toolbar??

Hello all,
I installed photoshop CS2, and now I cant seem to get the "make pdf" icons out of the toolbar.
I went into the toolbar options in word and de-selected "Adobe acrobat PDF maker" which removes them for that session. But the next time I restart Word they are right back where they were before!
Any ideas??

Kill these files:
Hard Drive/Applications/Microsoft Office 2004/PDFMakerLib
Hard Drive/Applications/Microsoft Office 2004/Startup/Word/PDFMaker.dot
Hard Drive/Applications/Microsoft Office 2004/Startup/PowerPoint/PDFMaker.ppa
Hard Drive/Applications/Microsoft Office 2004/Startup/Excel/PDFMaker.xla
The next time you launch Acrobat 6, you will get an error message asking to repair PDFMaker. Uncheck PDFMaker, check Don't show this again, and click Continue. That is the end of the annoyance.
Or from Macworld.com:
5. Banish Acrobat from Microsoft Office
If you have Acrobat 6.0 Professional and Microsoft Office v. X, you may have noticed a small Acrobat PDF toolbar in Excel, PowerPoint, and Word. The file responsible for this toolbar can become corrupt, causing intermittent problems, such as slower performance. To permanently delete the toolbar, search your Mac for all instances of PDFMaker.xla, PDFMaker.ppa, and PDFMaker.dot, and delete those files. You’ll never see the Acrobat PDF toolbar in Office apps again.

How can I keep word"s "acrobat pdf maker" from appearing ?

logically, all of the toolbars items (view menu) in Word should only appear if you ask for them
since nothing at microsoft seems to be logical, the "adobe pdf maker" toolbar appears constantly when you open a file so that you then have to throw it away to keep it from using up and cluttering the screen
I have tried everything I know to get rid of this pesky thing - any suggestions?

Hi, Joseph.
You haven't stated the version of MS Office you are using, but the following instructions, written with Office 2004 in mind, will also work for Office v.X.
How to remove the PDFMaker toolbar in MS Office applications
The PDFMaker toolbar launcher is saved in an application-specific directory for each Office application. The general format of the directory path is:
/Applications/Microsoft Office 2004/Office/Startup/office_application
Therefore, to remove the PDFMaker toolbar from MS Word, trash the PDFmaker file found in the directory:
/Applications/Microsoft Office 2004/Office/Startup/Word/
Do likewise for Excel, PowerPoint, etc.
Note that Adobe Acrobat automatically checks the state of its features — like PDFMaker — when it is launched. Depending on the version of Acrobat you have installed, it may try to replace these files after you have deleted them. Adobe Acrobat has a "Do not ask again" option if it offers to "repair" these files
Note that the same instructions work under Office v.X.
Good luck!

Error message: Missing PDF maker files in Word 2007

OK, I am beyond frustrated. I have had nothing but trouble with Windows Vista and Adobe Acrobat. Please help!!!
What happens: first, the pdf addin for Word 2007 suddenly becomes disabled, for no apparent reason. Forget about trying to re-enable it through the Add-Ins menu, because Word tells me that the "connected state of Office Add-Ins registered in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE cannot be changed". This is a problem for me, because I use a special font (Vietnamese) that sometimes gets corrupted when running pdf maker. The only consistent way I have found to avoid this problem is to run the pdf maker as "Quick PDF" and as far as I can see that option is only available through the pdf addin in Word, I have never been able to find it when I open the Acrobat program and create a pdf from there.
Second problem: shortly after the pdf addin becomes disabled, my Acrobat program loses the ability to create pdfs altogether. I get the error message "Missing PDF maker files". Yes, I have tried repairing the installation and re-starting my computer per the instructions given. It doesn't fix the problem. I also tried looking in the Knowledge Database on this website, but it appears that the instructions they have to fix the problem there are for earlier versions of Word, not 2007, because my version of word does not look like the version of Word in their little videos.
This is the second time this has happened. The first time I resolved the problem by a) re-installing Acrobat, which is a pain because it involves calling Adobe and wading through their customer service to get a new installation number, and b) paying a computer repair service to dig deep into the guts of my computer and convince it to change the Office Add-ins to allow the pdf addin again. It worked for about 6 months, and now I have the same problem again. For some reason Vista is spontaneously disabling Acrobat.
I simply cannot deal with this every few months. We all know that Vista is a crappy program, but I run a business and I need a program that works with whatever crappy program Microsoft puts out. Please, can anyone give me suggestions about how to re-enable these functions when Vista disables them?
Thanks in advance!

How do I make the images look clear in PDF when converted from MS Word?

Hi
When I convert an MS Word-2010 file (which contains images also) to PDF through Acrobat X Pro, some images which are of bigger size do not look very clear. Is there any workaround for this problem? Please reply. It's quite urgent.
Thanks

In my experience (not necessarily the best), I find it best to rescale image copies with a graphics package before importing into WORD or whatever. Resize and then set the resolution to about 600 dpi before you import. The issue of using the clipboard appears to be an issue with WORD 2007 and such. I clipped a 300 dpi image into my technical word processor and then back to a graphic editor and all was preserved. I did the same with WORD 2007 and everything got messed up and the resultant image looked terrible. In fact, in WORD I got the same result if I imported the picture or clipped it from my graphics package. So it appears there are some strange issues with WORD itself.
I am not trying to make any claims here, but just making an observation. The original image was at 300dpi. WORD also changed the 8-bit B&W photo to a 24-bit photo and reduced the number of pixels from 774 per width to 252 per width about a factor of 3 reduction in pixel resolution when clipped. When I expanded the image size in WORD, then the clip size increased also. When I do the same expansion of the image size in my word processor and then clip back to IrfanView, the original image is retained. My only conclusion is that OFFICE 2007 plays around with graphics and it does not seem to make any difference if you clip the image into WORD or import it, WORD still messes around with it. My guess this is just a general MS thing.
Some folks a year or 2 ago got me to looking at nice sunsets in PPT. There were all sorts of issues with creating the PDF (AA8) from the PPT to get a reasonable result. The image obtained from the MS converter seemed to keep the picture nice. The images obtained from PDF Maker and printing to the Adobe PDF printer gave slightly different results and tended to break the image into smaller parts that often left little lines in the picture if you zoomed in. Folks were blaming this on Acrobat and yet using the same version of Acrobat with OFFICE 2003 the sunset came out great.
This post is a bit jumbled, but the jist is that a lot of the graphics issues with WORD files seem to go back to WORD itself and possibly with hooks MS put into OFFICE (OK, no proof on that and probably impossible to prove) to mess up Acrobat conversions. It would be interesting to see if the same result for the PDF is obtained from other converters, or if it is just something that OFFICE 2007 does "nicely" for Acrobat.
Sorry for going off the deep end, but I just have a major annoyance with OFFICE starting with 2007, particularly for things like this. They couldn't get equations right either, just one more thing that they messed up. As far as I am concerned, a lot of the issues stem from MS and not Acrobat.
Just for the heck of it, I ran the PPT picture through Open Office and used both the PDF export and the print to the Adobe PDF printer. Both retained the full image. However, when clipping from OOP to Irfanview, the resolution was 96dpi. The result seemed to be dependent on the zoom. So there are definitely some issues with copy and paste, at least with how some packages handle it.

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?

BizGuru,
Somethings to consider.
--| In Windows - the OS needs a goodly space for 'elbow room' - you don't want to have HDD free space drop below something like 15%.
Say your HDD is 600GB, 60GB free space is leaving you 10%...
-| RAM - May not be enough; more is better <g>.
--| Virtual Memory - if in Windows, open up Task Manager. Look at all the "stuff" there. Most is not required by the OS.
Most of the listing is "stuff" associated with a full cart of processes associated with things you may not need or use but they suck up resources.
--| Graphics - Processing images into PDF can be resource intensive. Having a dedicated graphics card with enough ram makes a difference.
Be well...

Send Email Using PDF Maker for Word 2007

I am using Word 2007 with the Acrobat PDFMaker Office COM add-in. When I try to Mail Merge to a PDF, I get an error message that says "Acrobat PDFMaker was not able to mail merge the document." I click OK, and a new box says "Run-time error '5825'". Any ideas?

Re: PDF Maker Mail Merge error
I've had this same problem with one word document and I think I figured out what is going on, at least in my case. I'm using Word 2003. I tried a test of one merge record, and it worked, but when I tried to complete the entire merge, it failed. After trying several times to no avail, I noticed that the first word in my document had the red spell check underline, even though the word was not spelled wrong. When I placed my mouse cursor in front of the first letter of the word, the font information said "ZWAdobeF" and the size was 1. After I deleted this and tried the merge to e-mail through the Adobe plugin, it worked flawlessly. After the merge was completed however, that font reappeared in front of the first word in my document.
I hope this helps some people out there.
Also, I'm using Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional, Windows XP SP3.

PDF maker toolbar inactive in Office 2013

Hello. I have Adobe Acrobat Standard XI installed on Windows 7 Pro with Office 2013 Home & Business. The PDF Maker toolbar is not visible in any Office application. In Excel, Options, Add-ins, the Adobe Acrobat Create PDF Toolbar is listed as an Inactive Application Add-in. How do I make it active?
Thanks.
Chris

Did you install the updates? They are required to work with Office 2013 that was released after AA XI.
