Adobe Menus in Word

I just installed Acrobat X Pro on my computer. I also used Word 2003. Now in Word I have two new menus: Adobe PDF and Acrobat Comments. How do I get rid of these menus for good? I tried going to Tools / Customize / Rearrange commands and then right-clicking on the menus. I was able to delete them, but just for that document. When I closed out of Word and opened it again, the menus were back. How do I get rid of them for good?
Thanks!

Creating PDF files via the Print menu is beset with problems - you will lose all your accessibility, links and bookmarks. Using the Save As > Adobe PDF route is the only way to make the resulting file standards-compliant and fully accessible, and that requires the plugin be kept installed.

HELP! Conversion to Adobe PDF - Causing Word 2003 to Freeze Up!!

I searched the forum and couldn't find anything addressing this. I'm trying to create 508 compliant PDFs out of Word 2003 (Windows XP), using Acrobat 8.0 Professional. So far, no success.
I open the Word document. The Adobe PDF and Acrobat Comments menus are displayed on the menu bar. I select "Standard" settings, then "Convert to Adobe PDF."
Word gets about 10% into the conversion, opens a "Now printing Page 1..." popup, and that's it - the application freezes completely and I have to restart the program.
Is there some setting that's conflicting with this command? What can I do to make this work?? It's driving me COMPLETELY crazy.

You likely do not have AcroTray running in the background and so the print process fails.

Part of the problem in helping is likely that there is no program Adobe -- that is the company name. You are in the Acrobat forum, but it sounds like you have subscribed to Export PDF or such, a different program. The subscription to Acrobat is currently $19.99 per month.

Convert Adobe Form into Word Format

Hi Friends,
My question is very straight forward -:
Is there any way / any Function Module to convert the adobe form into word format ? Is this possible ?
Regards,
Debi

Hello, could you please elaborate a little more? Have you tried this? What was the result?
I mean: Adobe forms are often very complex, I would like to know how does the result look like. I have no DMS/ DMS experience to try it myself so I thought you could describe some more details about this suggestion.

Printing from adobe acrobat or word

Hi!
I have never been able to print the resulting file from inside the Word or adobe Acrobat applications on my Mac OSX G5. As long as I could save as
pdf on the desktop, and then open with preview and print from there I was
sort of happy. But if someone can tell me what is causing this problem already I'd be happy to fix this.
Now what brings me here is that documented abobe acrobat documents appear unfilled (none of the added text shows up) when I try and print such resulting pdf file e.g. when someone else has edited and sent me the file over an email. The added text is gone and I do not see it with preview prior printing either. This is quite ennoying. I can of course grab the screen and print the result, but the page is smaller this way. Note that the save as pdf and preview options upon printing from inside adobe acrobat are grey which
does not allow a way out of this situation.
So what can I do to be able to print documented pdf adobe acrobat documents? Any settings or explanation for my printing problems?

Fallard,
No clue, (and sounds goofy to me)...
You might try downloading Printer Setup Repair from:

It's shareware, and might help...
Hope it helps a little!

Create Adobe PDF from Word DOCX Issue

Good Morning All,
We have stumbled across an apparently well-known issue, which annoyingly for all concerned does not seem to have a satisfying answer. One rather long discussion is here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4237240. There is at least one other which also alludes to the issue basically involving Office 2010 SP1 and having the Word user template location re-directed to a network drive. None of the suggested things have worked, and we do not want to even try the user template location on a local drive, we want a fix for what is really a fairly standard scenario.
I think we have found something new to add to the mix, this is noted later in the post. For completeness I have also included a condensed version of events/stuff we have tried, to help anybody who reads this and may have an answer.
Our scenario is as follows:
We recently performed a Microsoft Office 2007 to Office 2010 SP1 upgrade. A week or so in advance of this we upgraded all those folks that had Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 to X, (v10.0.0).
Within a couple of days of the Office upgrade we had reports of an issue whereby users could not convert Word documents to PDF. Window title: Create Adobe PDF, message: Unable to open the document <path to file>. Please check to see if you have permission for the above file. (The user always does have rights to the location.)
All machines are 32bit Windows 7 and well capable of running this OS and these apps.
Machine patching is maintained by SCCM.
Deployment of Acrobat and Office was done by SCCM.
The issue broken down:
Conversion of Word documents to PDF fails in these scenarios:
Windows Explorer – right click of single file and ‘Convert to PDF’.
Windows Explorer – right click of multiple files and batch conversion option.
Outlook – Convert to PDF and e-mail. (Error message is different, apologies I have no note of this to hand.)
It should be noted that conversion of any other file format works, plus conversion of Word documents consistently works inside the Word interface using Adobe toolbar.
Not consistently a user based issue:
It usually * fails for our main test user on her PC. Although sometimes a single file or batch file conversion will work. However the option in Outlook never works. (* Every so often the single file and batch conversion’s do work for the test user, there is no obvious reason as we have not applied any fixes that worked!)
Everything works fine for the test user on my PC and another PC in her department.
Not consistently a machine based issue.
The process always works for me on my machine, but fails most of the time when I use the test users PC.
The process always works for a test account cloned from the test user’s actual account.
Giving local admin rights to the test user did not help.
Summary of things tried:
Various forum suggestions have not worked:
Deleting/renaming normal.dotm worked initially but the problem returned within a couple of days.
Registering some Adobe DLL's: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\PDFMaker\Office\PDFMOfficeAddin.dll & C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\PDFMaker\Common\AdobePDFMakerX.dll.
The Word Add-in tool bar is enabled.
The users name and intials are present in Word options.
There are no rogue temp files in %temp% or C:\users\<user>\appdata\roaming\microsoft\word.
Stuff we have tried independently:
Repair Office install then repair Adobe install.
Patching Acrobat to 10.1.1 & 10.1.4.
Remove and re-install of Acrobat, including patch.
Remove and re-install of Acrobat Pro and Reader, (using the official Adobe labs removal tool), including patch. (When products were removed Office was repaired. Just Acrobat Pro X was installed after, no Reader.)
During this work I noticed two files in %temp% which get updated when file conversion is attempted: amt.log and swtag.log. After Googling these files I found there may be some interesting stuff in amt.log when the process fails. Unfortunately this has not been the case. There is no obvious log entry difference between a successful conversion and a failure.
However at this time I started to notice files in %temp% in the following format: cv*.tmp.cvr. Google revealed these to be Office crash dump files. Unfortunately these files are always zero bytes long and literally contain nothing to analyse!
So after clearing out all these .cvr files I ran Task Manager, and had %temp% open in a folder. I then tried the conversion process:
Firstly it fails!
Secondly a zero byte .cvr file is created and usually disappears right away.
Thirdly winword.exe appears and disappears quickly in Task Manager.
You can repeat this to your heart’s content by hitting the retry button!
The only thing I can add about my PC is that I never had Acrobat until I tried installing it to re-create the issue. So it may be that my PC having no legacy Adobe install issues, (I only had Reader previously), was less prone to whatever is the root of this issue? The affected machines in the field have at least been upgraded from v9.
As you can tell we have found it very hard to pin the issue down. The circumstances for a failure are not consistently repeatable. I do think the key thing we have noticed though is the obvious crashing of winword.exe when this process fails. As evidenced by the creation of the cv*.tmp.cvr files and watching the process appear and disappear in Task Manager. Nothing I have read elsewhere notes this, and it seems to me that winword.exe does not like being called in this way. This is surely very key to the issue?

I should also add that there are no error messages appearing on screen when we have a failure, and nothing is logged in any Windows event log.
I have done lots more searching since first reporting this. Lots of people have this issue going back to last year at least with Office 2010 SP1 Acrobat X. No answers or fixes out there apparently despite being promised to some people who have done a bug report.
This is really not good enough. I have reported our scenario as a bug report earlier today. Hopefully I will get a proper fix, then I will gladly pass it on.

MacBook Pro (OS X 10.6.8): can't update adobe flash - now Word, Chrome, etc. all crashing on startup

I am not computer savvy, so if you answer, please be slow and deliberate. thanks!
Was having Adobe shockwave/flash problems while running Chrome, which is not completely unheard of. Restarted my MacBook Pro (OS X 10.6.8), which included a software update (though I'm not sure exactly what programs were updated).
Now Chrome will not run at all. Every time I start, it crashes immediately. Have tried SEVERAL times to trash/download it, but the same version seems to keep appearing in my Applications folder. Have also tried trashing the Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome folder to no avail. Appears back in its place after dragging it to the trash.
In addition, Adobe flash videos for Safari and Firefox (which I just downloaded as a tester) also will not work. Each attempt to update Adobe Flash also ends in a crash. And now I've discovered the same for everything Microsoft (Word, Excel, PowerPoint). The program shuts down and the Microsoft error message appears breifly, followed by the same crash "Mircrosoft Word Error Reporting Quit Unexpectedly" box.
Again, have tried several times to download Chrome & Adobe Flash to no avail. All system updates have been made to date. What to do next?

Has your computer started running slowly as well? Everything taking forever to work?
if so, this is the same type of issues I'm having.

I have MicroSoft Word Office 2007.
I recently upgraded from Adobe 8.1 to 9.3. Now, I can no longer open pdf docs.
I am getting an error that says: "Adobe Reader 9.3 (or 8.1) has encountered a problem and needs to close."
I have uninstalled 9.3 and reinstalled. I have uninstalled 9.3 and reinstalled 8.1. I have gone back to 9.3.
I have run 2008 Advanced Registry Optimizer.
The error signature when trying to open a pdf file w/ either Adobe Reader (9.3 or 8.1) is this:

Adobe toolbar in Word

I use MS Word 2003 &, as of 2007, Acrobat 6.0. When I installed Acrobat, it appeared to install an Acrobat toolbar into Word that would appear just above the ruler at the top of the document. From time to time, this toolbar would disappear. Someone told me that Word updates tended to disable this toolbar, making it disappear, but that I could go to Help/ About Word & click "Disabled Items ...", and the toolbar would be in the collection of disabled items and I could enable it. This actually worked a few times.
Now that I've upgraded to Acrobat 9, the toolbar has disappeared & no longer appears in the disabled item list. In its place, there are 2 buttons at the right end of the upper Word toolbar named Adobe PDF & Adobe comments. They appear to do the same conversion operation as could be done from the Adobe toolbar that is now missing, but it takes a whole lot more time.
Have any of you encountered this problem and figured out a way to get the toolbar back? I find it preferable.
Thanks for your help.

Lost Adobe tab in Word 2007

Hi,
I had a Word 2007 crash, and when I reopened Word the Adobe tab (for converting to PDF) tab had disappeared
When I go to Word options > Add-ins > COM add-ins I can see a check box with Acrobat PDFMaker Office COM add-in.(exact names may not be accurate, I have a French version of Word)
I checked the option, clicked OK, but I still have no tab. I tried stopping/starting Word, but no luck.
Any ideas?

I actually just had that happen in our office with Excel. Here's what I found on the support site: (hope this helps you)
PDFMaker is unavailable in a Microsoft Office 2007 application after you install Acrobat 9 (Windows)
Ratings:0 of 1 people found this helpful
Issue
The Adobe Acrobat PDFMaker toolbar is unavailable in a Microsoft Office 2007 application after you install Acrobat 9 Standard, Pro, or Pro Extended on Windows.
Solution
Do one or more of the following solutions:
Solution 1: Enable the PDFMaker add-in in the Office 2007 application's Disabled Items list.
A Microsoft Office 2007 application may automatically disable add-ins as a fail-safe if the application closes unexpectedly (for example, if the system was not shut down properly or if the application crashed). To determine if the PDFMaker add-in has been disabled, do the following:
Open the Microsoft Office 2007 application.
Do one of the following:
In Access, Excel, Word, or PowerPoint: Click the Microsoft Office button (in the upper-left corner). Click the [Application Name] Options button. Choose Add-Ins in the list on the left side of the Options window. Choose Disabled Items in the Manage drop-down menu at the bottom of the Options window. Click Go.
In Outlook, Publisher, or Visio: Choose Tools > Trust Center. Choose Add-Ins in the list on the left side of the Trust Center window. Choose Disabled Items in the Manage drop-down menu at the bottom of the Trust Center window. Click Go.
In Project: Choose Help > About Microsoft Office Project. Click Disabled Items.
Look in the Disabled Items list for Acrobat PDFMaker Office COM Add-In.
If Acrobat PDFMaker Office COM Add-In is in the list, then select it, click Enable, and click Close. Then close and re-open the Office 2007 application.
If Acrobat PDFMaker Office COM Add-In is not in the list, then use Windows Explorer to make sure that PDFMOfficeAddin.dll is present in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\PDFMaker\Office. If the file is not present, then go to Solution 4 for instructions on how to repair your Acrobat installation.
Note: If you installed Acrobat to a location other than the default of C:\Program Files\Adobe, then modify the folder path above for your installation location.
Solution 2: Manually register the COM add-in file.
Disclaimer: This procedure involves editing the Windows registry. Adobe doesn't provide support for editing the registry, which contains critical system and application information. Make sure to back up the registry before editing it. For more information about the registry, see the Windows documentation or contact Microsoft.
Close all Office 2007 applications.
In Windows Explorer, locate PDFMOfficeAddin.dll and note its exact path, which may include spaces. Its default path is C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\PDFMaker\Office\PDFMOfficeAddin.dll.
Do one of the following:
On Windows XP: Choose Start > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt.
On Windows Vista: Choose Start > All Programs > Accessories. Right-click on Command Prompt, choose Run As Administrator, and authenticate.
In the Command Prompt window, type regsvr32 followed by a space and the path that you noted in Step 1. Enclose the path in quotation marks. For example, if PDFMOfficeAddin.dll is in its default location, then you would type the following command:
regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\PDFMaker\Office\PDFMOfficeAddin.dll"
Press Enter.
A dialog box will confirm that the registration was successful. Click OK to close this dialog box.
Close the Command Prompt window.
Open the Office 2007 application.
Solution 3: Verify that Acrobat PDFMaker Office COM Add-In is selected in the Office 2007 application's list of available add-ins.
Open the Microsoft Office 2007 application.
Do one of the following:
In Access, Excel, PowerPoint, or Word: Click the Microsoft Office button (in the upper-left corner). Click the [Application Name] Options button. Choose Add-Ins in the list on the left side of the Options window.
In Outlook, Publisher, or Visio: Choose Tools > Trust Center. Choose Add-Ins in the list on the left side of the Trust Center window.
Choose COM Add-ins in the Manage drop-down menu at the bottom of the Options window or the Trust Center window.
Click Go.
Look for Acrobat PDFMaker Office COM Add-In in the list.
If Acrobat PDFMaker Office COM Add-In appears in the list but the checkbox beside it is not selected, then click the checkbox to place a check mark there. Click OK. Then close and re-open the Office 2007 application. (If the Office application doesn't allow you to place a check mark in the checkbox, and if you have already tried Solution 1, then select Acrobat PDFMaker Office COM Add-In, click Remove, and proceed to the next paragraph.)
If Adobe PDFMaker COM Add-In is not in the list of available add-ins, then click Add and navigate to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\PDFMaker\Office. Select PDFMOfficeAddin.dll. Click OK. Then close and re-open the Office 2007 application.
Note: If you installed Acrobat to a location other than the default of C:\Program Files\Adobe, then modify the folder path above for your installation location.
Solution 4: Run Repair Acrobat Installation while no other applications are running.
Close all open applications.
Restart your computer.
Open Acrobat.
Choose Help > Repair Acrobat Installation and follow the on-screen instructions.
When the repair process is complete, restart your computer.
Solution 5: Remove and reinstall Acrobat with Windows in a simplified mode.
Device drivers and programs that start automatically when you start your computer can conflict with the Acrobat installer and cause problems. To prevent an installation conflict, reinstall Acrobat while Windows is in simplified mode. In simplified mode, non-essential programs and drivers are disabled.
To remove Acrobat:
Move any personal files out of the Acrobat application folder and its subfolders. The default location for the application folder is C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0.
Do one of the following:
On Windows XP: Choose Start > Control Panel > Add Or Remove Programs (or Start > Settings > Control Panel > Add Or Remove Programs). If the Control Panel is in Category view, then also click Remove A Program.
On Windows Vista: Choose Start > Control Panel > Programs And Features. If the Control Panel is in Category view, then instead choose Start > Control Panel > Uninstall A Program.
In the Add Or Remove Programs window, select Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard, Pro, or Pro Extended.
Click Change/Remove (Windows XP) or click Uninstall/Change (Windows Vista).
Follow the on-screen instructions to remove the application.
To reinstall Acrobat in a simplified mode:
Close all open applications.
Restart the computer with non-essential services and startup items disabled. For instructions, see one of these TechNotes:
Windows XP: See TechNote kb404984.
Windows Vista: See TechNote kb404913.
Double-click the Setup.exe file on your Acrobat 9 installation media. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation.
Open Acrobat and choose Help > Check For Updates. Follow the on-screen instructions to install available updates.
Re-enable startup items and services. For instructions, see the appropriate TechNote in Step 2, above.
Restart your computer.
Additional Information
PDFMaker is unavailable in a Microsoft Office 2007 application after you install Acrobat 8.1.x (Windows) (TechNote kb401734)

How do I change the Adobe Reader Online Word Look Up Dictionary?

When I select and right-click a word in a PDF file in Reader, it pops-up a menu with a Look Up Word option. Upon clicking it, I am taken to dictionary.com website. I want to change this to OED, because I have an account with them. Moreover, I often study old texts with words that are not mentioned on the default site. I have searched high and low, but couldn't find a solution. There must be a way to change it to some other on-line service or off-line program.
P.S: If there is no way to do it, I strongly propose Adobe to include this feature in future updates/releases. Trust me, there are thousands out there who absolutely need it.

I know of no way to change the dictionary. However, here is where you can put your request:
