Cannot Create PDF Acrobat 9.4 Standard Windows 7, 64 bit

Hi,
Currenlty my colleague and I have the same issue; we cannot create PDF documents using Acrobat 9.4 Standard or the office plug in, and there is no PDF printer available after the acrobat installation either.
We are both using Windows 7, 64 bit version. I have checked and confirmed Acrobat 9 on Windows 7 64 bit with Office 2007 should be compatible.
* When using the 'Create PDF from file' feature from Acrobat we get the following error: "Unable to find "Adobe PDF" resource files. Do you want to run the installer in repair mode?"
I have run the installer in repair mode multiple times, same isssue occurs after this is done.
* When using the Acrobat plug-in for office, for example in Word (we both use Office Professional 2007) and selecting 'Create PDF' it will prompt for a save location, after select save nothing happens, and there is no PDF file created in the save locaton.
So far I have tried the following without any success:
- Un-installing and re-installing acrobat, multiple times
- running the acrobat application in compatability mode for Windows XP
- attempted to create PDF files from older word versions i.e. .doc and .docx have the same issue
- attempted to manually install PDF printer using the acrobat installation files - did not work
* I am aware that Office 2007 will allow me to save a document as PDF, however we still need acrobat for the publishing quality and editing features.
Any help or suggestions regarding this issue would be greatly appreciated :-)
Kind Regards,
Wade

I understand what you are suggesting. I have two laptops the same model. AA works on one but not the other.  I do have office 7 and a 64 bit OS.
Thanks for the help

Subject: Cannot Create PDF Acrobat 9.4 Standard Windows 7, 64 bit
If you are running a 64-bit version of OFFICE 2007 (if one exists), that may be the issue. AA X did not work with that version until the most recent release as I understand it. Since you have AA 9.4, I am not sure of the compatibility of it with the 64-bit version. It is strange that the printer does not appear. It seems a few others have had similar problems and as I recall, someone made a suggestion to fix that recently -- though it may have been for AA X. You might search on 64-bit or such.

  • Adobe Acrobat XI: Error Adobe Acrobat is not activated. Cannot create PDF File.

    After installing Acrobat XI Pro on Windows 7 Ent. w/Office 2010.
    From MS Word, select Save as PDF, I recieve "Adobe Acrobat is not activated. Cannot create PDF file."
    Any and all troubleshooting has failed.
    Uninstall Acrobat, language packs, re-install, install updates, Install on fresh image.

    kglad  your link refers to Windows XP. As to the rest it is questionable. First of all it would be nice to know the cause, before fixing the problem. For in some cases eliminating the cause will solve problems later on. So, in my case for ex. The problem did not exist until I protected my Word 2010 document and then saved it to PDF--which it would not allow to do so and giving the error message stated above.

  • 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.

    When installing Acrobat Pro 11 on Windows 7 32 bit, it takes you through all the way to install, then it just hangs and won't install. 

    Hi mrmacnology,
    Please check and ensure that you should not have any prior version of Acrobat already installed on your computer.
    Do you get any specific error message?
    You might try installing Acrobat from a different browser.

  • I cannot sync to itunes on my computer (Windows Vista 32 bit) with my mini conected.

    I cannot sync to itunes on my computer (Windows Vista 32 bit) with my mini connected. What should I do?
    My Mini will not boot up. I tried holding both buttons down.  I got a "connect to itunes" message. I connected. and nothing happens.

    Hello there Chess-ster,
    If I understand correctly your iPad mini is not being recognized in iTunes on your Windows Vista PC. I would recommend you use the troubleshooting in the following article:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    Start with these steps and work your way down as needed:
    Restart
    Turn off your computer and your iOS device, then turn them on again.
    Update your computer
    Check to make sure that you've installed all required updates for your computer.
    Update iTunes
    Check that you have the latest version of iTunes installed on your computer.
    Check the USB cable
    Verify that the 30-pin to USB cable or Lightning Connector to USB cable is free of debris and not damaged. If another cable is available, test with that cable instead.
    USB cables that are bundled with third-party products or accessories might work only to charge those products and might not transmit data. Also, if you're using a third-party case or extended battery pack, try removing the case and connecting the Apple-supplied USB cable directly to your device.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Sterling

  • Using Frame 9, Acrobat 9.5, suddenly cannot create pdf. The ps file is empty, and the process results in unresolved cross-refs. Have updated w/o success.

    I've beenusing the Tech Comm Suite with Frame 9 and Acrobat 9.5 for years, and suddenly cannot create a pdf of a frame doc. The ps file is empty. This is happening to a colleague using the same suite across the country. Any suggestions? Please help!

    OK, that's pretty plain vanilla. Assuming you've already checked the Adobe
    Updates web page to ensure that both applications are fully patched....
    The thing that jumps out from your procedure is that you don't seem to have
    the Acrobat printer set as the system default because you're selecting it.
    So I'd make that change. And you may want to then reboot, to make sure it
    sticks.
    The second thing I'd do is eliminate your Step 1, because if you don't
    select Print To File and do that dance, if the Acrobat Printer is selected
    (as it should be if it's the system default), Acrobat will create the PS
    file and distill it automatically, then delete the temp files -- that's
    what it's designed to do. (This would also make Step 2 and 3 unnecessary,
    because Acrobat is your system default printer now.)
    Probably no harm in forcing it into manual mode as you're doing, except the
    extra time and keystrokes, but I'd try the other path just to see what
    happens.
    Are you getting any error messages in the Frame Console window?

  • Cannot Create PDF in Adobe Acrobat 8

    I'm using Adobe Acrobat Professional 8 and I cannot create a pdf from a *.docx file and *.doc file.  Word 2007 does have the Acrobat PDFMaker Office COM Addin listed as a trusted site.
    When I try to Create PDF from Multiple files the error message is Cannot convert file type to PDF.  Please remove this file from the list. 
    Is there a way to create a pdf file in Adobe 8 with 2007 and 2003 documents?

    In WORD 2007 you should have a create PDF menu set. That is the PDF Maker that works with AA8. There could also be some issues with the OS which you did not mention. AA8 is not certified for use on Win7 and is a potential problem. I suspect that you do not have PDF Maker for AA8 active in WORD. You can always print to the Adobe PDF printer to create a PDF, you just lose some of the bookmark and related options.

  • Cannot Create PDF Using "Create PDF" Function in Acrobat 8

    I can create by using "save as" in my Office programs, but only from the Windows Explorer box, not from the menu.  However, I can no longer "create pdf" nor "combine files" inside Acrobat 8.  I get reinstall message.  It starts and hangs up.  I tried reinstalling from CD.   I use this feature a lot to create files and it just quit.  Nothing new has been installed that might interfere. I've made sure that the distiller is not inactive.  Thoughts?

    Unfortunately, alot of us had to upgrade to Office 2010 ...its very unfortunate that adobe doesn't warn us up front about the imcompatibiity problem before they took our money.  Granted they can't give us warnings about every compatibility issue..but considering that MS. Office PDF comversions is a big marketing interest for adobe, I for one would have liked to have known that before I paid for adobe for 9, for I would have waited for 10

    Until Adobe releases Acrobat 10 do not upgrade to MS Office 2010!!!
    It appears that with the release of Acrobat 10, much of Adobe's support to Acrobat versions 7, 8 and 9 will be reduced to the very minimum updates.
    Many CAD programs require upgrades to newer versions of Acrobat. But Acrobat does not support all CAD programs.

  • Acrobat XI Pro for OSX can't open password-protected pdfs created using Acrobat 9 Pro for Windows

    I am having problems opening password-protected files created on a PC using Acrobat 9 Pro.  I am running a MacBook Pro OSX 10.8.4 with Acrobat XI Pro.  When I attempt to enter the password when prompted, a dialogue box pops up saying that I've entered the incorrect password.  After many attempts, I am certain that the password entered is correct -- this is reinforced by the fact that i am able to open the same document using Mac's Preview software.
    Any assistance would be appreciated!
    Thanks.

    I was suddenly having the same problem in Acrobat XI Pro for Windows (recently upgraded to CC from Acrobat X).  For the past while I've sometimes had to use the "insert from file" tool to get a page added from another file.  I couldn't figure out why dragging sometimes would no longer work, but was too busy to go looking for a solution until tonight. 
    The solution was given by JoshTatum24 above. Switch from a scrolling page display to single page display.  Now I can drag pages between documents again.  THANK YOU Josh!
    Oh, and CORREAdmin,  it does not matter whether the hand or arrow selection tool is active, my mouse pointer is always an arrow when positioned in the page thumbnails panel.  Switching selection tools does not make a difference in dragging, but switching between scrolling and single page display definitely DOES make the difference.

  • Cannot open Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 in Windows Vista

    I can no longer open my Adobe or use it in any way.
    All of my other CS4 programs operate fine, and this is not a licensing issue.
    A little Microsoft Window pops up and says that Adobe Acrobat 9.1 has stopped working.
    It will shut down and contact me when the issue is resolved.
    Thank you in advance.

    Thank you for your help. AA9 would not open at any time for any thing; when
    I tried to open a PDF file, when I tried to create a PDF file with word or
    excel or when I tried to open the icon on my desktop.
    I took your advise and cleaned my registry and reinstalled. I also made
    Adobe Reader 9 my default PDF reader. However, although I can create PDFs
    from word or excel (with it still stopping as soon as the document has been
    converted), I still cannot open AA9 to create a new portfolio or add to an
    existing or open the icon on my desktop. I have tried to repair the
    application but with the same results.
    Any ideas? And thanks again for your help.
