Adobe Acrobat v8.1.2 - PDFMaker COM Add-in not loading in Word 2007

PDFMaker COM Add-in is now not loading in Word 2007 at startup. But, it loads just fine for the rest of the Office 2007 apps. It loaded just fine, all operational, until 1-2 months ago. Now I have no access to Acrobat in Word 2007 except for print to that printer. There are now no buttons on the ribbon for direct access to Adobe Acrobat functions as there used to be. When I look in the COM add-ins area of Word 2007, it tells me PDF Maker is not loaded and that I cannot change the connected state of Office Add-ins registered in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE in the Regedit.
Am running MS Office 2007 SP-1 on Vista SP-1 x82. This behavior was going on before the recent SP-1's were installed, so pre-existing condition. Everything else is performing quite well. REALLY! I am very pleased with Vista.
Guidance, help, etc is most appreciated. THANKS!!!

I had the same issue. The COM Add-In for PDFMaker was disabled by Word 2007 due to an unexpected crash during the creation of a PDF. I have searched all over the place trying to find a way to get the PDFMaker functionality active again in Word 2007 including the solutions mentioned in this post. In the end I found a solution myself.
1. Go to Word Options > Add-ins
2. Go to the Manage drop down dialog at the bottom of the page and select Disabled Items. Click Go.
3. A dialog will open that displays all the disabled add-ins. Select Acrobat PDFMaker Office COM Addin.
4. Click the Enable button.
5. Close and reopen MS Word and the Acrobat menu should be available again.

  • XLReporter Com Add-in not loading

    I have a problem with the XLReporter and am having a problem getting pointed in the right direction. Here is what is going on. We have the B1 client installed on our Terminal server to make it easy to demo. When someone needs to demo B1 from outside the office they use an RDP connection to the Terminal server and start the B1 client. They go to run the XLReporter, generate a report and get the error Com Add-in not loaded. But, when you open Excel and go to the Com Add-in it shows that it is loaded. This was the result even with the administrator logged in. When I log in to this server with my log in I have no problems, the reporter works good. I have been through a complete uninstall and reinstall of the client. I even removed all left over files from the first install to include running the IXXL registery cleaner tool. I did the reinstall under the administrator login. I hope that you can get me pointed to the right place for info on this. The system is B12007A-47 on a Windows 2003 server with SQL2005.
    Thank you for your time on this matter.
    John

    Gordon, I have opened Excel and manually added the IXXLReporter.dll to the Com Add-in while I was logged in as Administrator.It will not start.
    Jim, the 2007A B1 client that is installed on the computer auto installs the XLReporter when you install the client. I have uninstalled the client, ran the registry cleaner for XLR and then reinstalled. I did all of this while logged on as the administrator. Still wont work while logged in as administrator. But, when I log on as myself it works

  • Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Extended,  64-bit Add-On, Version 9.0.0

    Does anybody know if this is still needed for Adobe Acrobat Pro Ext, version 9.5.2 ? Our security people are declaring that this is a vulnerability, and I see no way to update it or even verify if it is needed. There are no clear references to this on Adobe's website, other than for previous versions of 9 Pro Extended.

    All I can tell you is it's title in the "Programs and Features" tool of Windows 7. To whit: "Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Extended 64-bit Add-On."  It has an installation date of 8-30-2011 and is only 34KB in size, according to Windows. It is listed below the Main Acrobat 9 Pro program, which doesn't give it's size, but does give the current version of 9.5.2, which is the latest for Acrobat 9 Pro as far as I know.
          The one thing I want to establish is whether this add-on is necessary for the current version of Acrobat 9 Pro to function or not. I can find no guidance on Acrobat's website; at least a search reveals nothing anyway. And it is not referenced in their update site at all. If worse comes to worse, I will call them for guidance because our security types are listing it as a problem, and I am wondering if they are confusing this add-on with the main program.
    Hope this helps with your knowledge, and thanks for replying.

  • I am using CC adobe Acrobat to combine multiple pdfs and add page numbers. Mac users can no longer read the page numbers but pc users can.

    I am using CC adobe Acrobat to combine multiple pdfs and add page numbers. As of about 2 weeks ago the mac users can no longer read the page numbers they get a font error message and see only -- where the page information should be. The pc users do not have this same problem. When I replace our regular font (URW Grotesk) with a system font (Verdana) everyone is able to read the page numbers. This is a new issues, I have been creating these documents in the same way for years without a problem. I have been on hold and on and off calls for the last two hours, I keep getting hung up on once I find someone in adobe support to talk to!

    Hi KnoopL,
    Are the Mac users using Preview to view the pdfs or Adobe Reader?

  • Adobe Acrobat recovered one or more documents that have not been properly recorded before the Acrobat stop.

    When opening any .pdf with Adobe Acrobat Reader the following error comes.
    Error Message: Adobe Reader has recovered one or more documents that were not saved properly before Reader was shut down. Click Yes to open the recovered documents. If you click No, your changes will be lost.

    Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat?

    I bought Adobe® Acrobat® XI Pro Subscription Edition (one-year) but not able to edit any PDF. Please advise

    I went through the tutorial and the problem is when I click on "Tools" the edit option does not come. Only "Export", "Create" or "Send" pdfs.
    I think must be a technical problem.

    BS heißt "Bull___****". *lol* "Betriebssystem" heißt imemr noch "operating system". GoLive wirste wohl gar nicht zum laufen kriegen. ohnehin würde man es nicht mehr verwenden, weil es noch nicht mal CSS2 voll unterstützt geschweige denn HTML 5 und andere moderne Webstandards. Wenn überhaupt, dann findeste vielleicht noch 'ne OEM CD von Strato oder 1und1 bei eBay. Die haben das damals mit jedem neuen Hostingvertrag rausgehauen. Aber wie gesagt, es ist den Aufwand nicht wert. Illustrator sollte sich durchaus installieren lassen. Eventuell einfach nochmal die Installer im Win XP Kompatibilitätsmodus laufen lassen...

  • Add Ins tab disappears in Word 2007

    Hi -
    I installed Tutor 14 and I am having problem with the Add In.
    I am using Word 2007 - and when I create a new Tutor document, I can see the Add In tab at first. But as soon as I update the Document Properties, the Add In tab disappears.
    What is the issue with this, can anyone help? The OS is XP.
    Thanks.

    It may be a corrupt normal.dotm.
    Try deleting it.
    Close Word, find where normal.dot resides (should be in the same folder as Author.dot) and delete normal.dotm
    A new one will regenerate next time you open Word.
    Another cause could be other product's dot files that are installed to the Word start up folder.
    These may over-ride the Author.dot
    Examples are the snagit.dot, palm.dot, etc.
    Remove these from Word's startup folder and see if the behavior persisits.
    Kind regards,
    Emily

  • I need to include Adobe Acrobat converter - whether it's an add-on or plugin - so that I could convert the website content to PDF.

    On Internet Explorer, there is an Adobe Acrobat icon which would allow the website's content to be converted to a PDF document. While I tried to import all features from IE to Firefox, that feature did not appear. That is so important to me that despite all advantages of Firefox I had to go back to IE.

    I don't know whether anyone has created a PDF button for Firefox. What I do is print to PDF. After using Preview to confirm that it will fit, I print to a PDF printer driver. If you have Adobe Acrobat installed, this may show up among your printers as Distiller.
    If you don't have Adobe Acrobat, there are a number of third party PDF printer drivers (free and paid) to choose from.

  • Why does Adobe Acrobat XI 11.0.07 take 2 minutes to load a Brother Scanner Interface dialog?

    Just updated OS X to 10.10 (Yosemite), on a MacBook Pro Retina (i7 processor, 8 GB) today.
    Now, after having trouble, so uninstalled & reinstalled Adobe Acrobat Pro XI (11.0.07), I'm further delayed each time I try to scan.
    In the past, I've used the menus in Acrobat to scan:  File / Create / PDF from Scanner.
    This immediately shows the first of two dialog boxes:  ADOBE SCAN, where I select Brother TWAIN as the input, scan to a new PDF document, no OCR, not PDF/A, not Optimized) and click Scan.
    This brings up the second dialog box (BROTHER TWAIN), which sets resolution, color or black / white, and page size.  This second dialog box used to appear right away - now there is always a 2 minute delay, before the 2nd dialog box appears, during which time the system is responsive but Acrobat appears non-responsive.
    So, why the 2 minute delay?

    I'd like to add that I'm having the exact same issue, which started after the Acrobat 11.0.09 upgrade in Yosemite.  The previous version of Acrobat worked just fine in Yosemite.
    I have a Brother ADS-1500W, and the same symptoms as the OP, which are:
    I click File > Create PDF from Scanner
    I get the Adobe scanner window, where I input my settings.
    I click "Scan", then have a 1-2 minute wait before my actually scanner input window comes up.
    I'm a creative cloud subscriber, how can I downgrade to 11.0.0?
    EDIT: (Temporarily?) Fixed
    I saw another brother user report that updating their scanner drivers directly from Brother fixed the issue.  I downloaded the latest printer drivers directly from Brother here, (version 3.10.0, released on 10/23/2014) and the transition from the Adobe to the Brother/OSX scan dialogue is once again instant. Other users have reported that the fix goes away on restart, so I'll see if I can avoid restarting until Adobe/Brother comes up with a more permanent fix. 

  • For some reason, Adobe Acrobat Installer is on my computer & I can't load Flash

    No, I did not load Acrobat or Reader, only have Adobe Air. I cannot find Adobe Acrobat Installer on my Windows XP. When, I go to download Flash a message pops up Saying:" Adobe Acrobat Installer, Only a Single Instance of this Application can Run". I use Chrome for my FB games, because I need Flash. I don't have any idea how this happened. Yes, I posted this in Adobe's forum, also. Any ideas?:

    Hello Elainemacko
    1. Fist I would uninstall any version of Abobe Flash plugin or active x installed.
    Please go to '''Add or Remove Programs''' ([http://support.microsoft.com/KB/307895 Click Here to see how to uninstall programs from Windows XP]) and check you don't have "'Abobe Flash Player"' Installed, If so uninstall it.
    2. [http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html Click here to go to Adobe Flash Player Distribution] (This is the off line installer)
    3. Click '''Download EXE Installer''' Under '''Windows''' and save the file.
    4. Once downloaded double click the install files. '''make sure to close any browser you have open first'''. (At the time of writing this it should be called "'install_flash_player_15_plugin.exe"')
    5. Once the installer finishes installing [http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ Click Here] to go to the "'Check Abobe Flash is installed and up to date Page"' to test if the installer install Adobe Flash properly.
    Please let me know if this solves you problem.

  • Adobe Acrobat 6.0 CE Standard edited forms do not display fields

    I have a user who has Adobe Acrobat 6.0 CE Standard, she uses it to fill out an editable form created with Adobe and send it to clients. When this form is saved and attached to an e-mail, anyone who recieves it and opens it in Reader 9.0 the fields that were edited do not display. However, If It is sent through the "Send by e-mail for review" option under the "File" menu option in the Adobe Acrobat 6.0 CE. It arrives and opens up with the input data in the fields.
    Can anyone tell me what the difference is and why It cannopt be opened in Reader if just sent as an attachment in Outlook?

    Lolanda,
    Do you know if your users that cannot use the forms have access to the ADSCerts view in the Key Storage service?  Check out slide 26 in the below link:
