Combining Office 2010 word docx files or doc files into pdf freezes Adobe Acrobat 9.X

When combining multiple Office 2010 Word docs into one pdf causes Adobe to freeze. A word dialog box pops-up prompting to save the pdf to start out(which is incorrect). Naming the pdf should be the last step. It does save the first doc into the pdf you name but does not merge the rest of the pages and just freezes. I have uninstalled, repaired Office, etc. Any suggestion would help or it looks like a complete rebuild of the system.

Thanks again Bill
I tried printing to the Adobe PDF printer as you suggested, the process was successful and no errors came up. Close examination of the file did not reveal ant weird formatting or fonts. I tried repairing the file with Word to no avail.
I eventually found that replacing the last two paragraphs of the document which contained a couple of links did the trick. Something weird and unexplained. All I know for sure is the issue is dealt with on my end.

  • Converting a word 2000 file into pdf using Adobe Acrobat Standard X

    I reinstalled my Adobe Acrobat Standard X today, and tried to convert a *.doc word file into pdf, but the application could not open the word file and got stalled. I remembered that last time I installed the application the same probelm cropped up and I had to install a Microsoft patch that was required to do this, What is the patch file and how do I get it?

    I answer my question myself. I have solved it myself. The answer can be found by searching adobe website. But I give it here if it can be useful to others. Go to control panel. Go to Add or remove programs. Click on Modify in the listed Adobe program. Click Next in the box that appears. Select Modify. Click on + sign against pdF maker to expand. Click on X sign against 'this feature is not available' which shifts on to the little box on the left of Microsoft Office. Click on Apply. Quit. Once the Microsoft Office becomes disabled in Adobe, Word will open in all places.

  • Problems converting Wrod doc (2007) to PDF with Adobe Acrobat 8.x

    I have been trying to save a word document (2007) to PDF. If I open Acro
    bat and try to do it there by selecting a file I get a message that says unexpected error - no details. If
    i try from Word, the file appears to process but there is no document.
    I see nothing on line that answers this question.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi there,
    Sorry to hear you're having trouble. While I can't help with your Acrobat question (you're not in the Acrobat forum, but rather in the Acrobat.com forum), I can tell you that there are two online services that can do this conversion for you:
    1. Acrobat.com (www.acrobat.com) is a service for creating and sharing files, as well as web conferencing;
    2. Adobe CreatePDF (http://createpdf.acrobat.com) is a service solely for creating PDF files from existing documents.
    I would recommend either of those services to you for creating PDF files from your existing Word documents, as well as from image files and other text files (for a full list of supported documents, please see http://createpdf.acrobat.com/faq.html).
    For help solving the Acrobat problem, you'll probably want to re-post your question to the forum on the Acrobat User Community site: www.acrobatusers.com/forum
    Best of luck!

  • Acrobat 11 doesn't create pdf. files from doc. files

    I tried to create a pdf. file from a doc. file (Office 2003). Acrobat 11 instead opens a warning message with the following contents (translated from German):
    A high security level has been chosen. Start the application that created the document, activate the dialogue "safety warning", choose "always trust macros from this resource, activate ... from Adobe Systems Inc. (the message aborts there).
    I selected "Extras/Macro/Safety/Safety level" , there I selected "low". The above mentioned message still comes up.
    What do you suggest to do in order to finally create pdf. files from doc. files?
    Additional information: Creating pdf. files from xls. files (Excel), txt. files (Editor) and saving a webpage as a pdf. file all work fine.
    Thanks for your input!

    Although Office 2003 is old compared to Acrobat XI, according to Compatible web browsers and PDFMaker applications it should work, though support has passed end of life.
    So my first test (if it were me) would be to see if PDFMaker works if run in the simplest way (the only way I ever use it, this right click conversion stuff isn't in my worldview). That is, does the Acrobat menu appear in Word and does it work? If it does not work, no other method based on it can work.

  • Not able to convert word file to PDF using Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard

    Hi,
    I am not able to convert word file to PDF using Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard. When I try to convert, it starts the process and in between I am getting this prompt, as shown in figure below and the conversion process stops. The PDF is not created.
    Note: The filename 'Acr85.doc' in the above prompt keeps changing and is random.
    I tried clicking Yes, No and Cancel on the above prompt, but the conversion process just stops and PDF is not getting generated.
    I am able to create PDFs from web pages. No issues with that. Not working only with Word.
    Can someone help me with this.
    Thanks,

    In MSWord please changes the settings as "Adobe PDF" menu => "Change Conversion Settings" goto Tab Bookmark and clicks the option Convert Word Bookmarks. Now you convert the Doc to PDF you can achieve the Bookmark.
    Hope this help you

  • How can I convert JPG files in multiple subfolders into PDFs with a batch?

    So here's the situation. I'm sitting on 400+ files, each in its own individual subfolder which also contains 4-10 other files. Those files I don't care about, only the .jpg file. I want to be able to take all of those .jpg files and convert them into PDFs, saving them in the same original folder. I've tried making an action to do this but it selects all the files in the folder and converts them as well.

    Should be, yes... It's one of the options of the batch processes. I believe
    it's under the first step, the one where you select which folder/files to
    process. There should be a window there to select which file types to
    process as well. Untick everything except for JPG and it should work...

  • When I open a pdf in Adobe Acrobat xi pro it is not displaying correctly. If a file is all black with orange writing, I will see only the orange writing. Its not until i print it or open crop pages dialog box that i see the background. i am on a Windows 7

    When I open a pdf in Adobe Acrobat xi pro it is not displaying correctly. If a file is all black with orange writing, I will see only the orange writing. Its not until i print it or open crop pages dialog box that i see the background.
    i am on a Windows 7 professional PC, 64-bit.

    If anyone is reading this still looking for what caused the issue and how to fix it here is what I discovered.
    The antivirus program our company uses, Bitdefender Antivirus Plus, was causing some of the PDF files not to open. After troubleshooting the different modules and settings the culprit was..
    Scan SSL in Privacy Control Settings. Turning it OFF solved the problem and all the PDF files that previously would not open now open just fine. This issue has been sent to Bitdefender for them to review. If you use a different antivirus program and are having this issue try locating the Scan SSL setting and see if turning it off solves the problem.

  • I don't understand.  I use Google Docs to write letters & other forms, then convert them to PDFs using Adobe Acrobat.  If Forms Central closes, will I still be able to do this?

    I don't understand.  I use Google Docs to write letters & other forms, then convert them to PDFs using Adobe Acrobat.  If Forms Central closes, will I still be able to do this?

    Adobe also has Acrobat.com and there is DropBox.com. Adobe has also announced Adobe Document Cloud.
    Forms central provide a subscription service for users with Reader to create simple forms. Apparently this did not meet a majority of users and with the minimal price difference for Acrobat and free web storage the users were better served without it. I expect cloud services will continue to emerge until providers better and more fully understand the user requirements.

  • Office 2010 - "Word cannot print, there is no printer installed"

    Hi All,
    Been having a problem recently on many PC's at a site where they run Windows 7 x64 with Office 2010 x86.
    Printing usually happens with no issue, however sometimes when they click the print icon, (in the 'file-->print' section) it will display 'word cannot print, there is no printer installed'.
    The client tells me they can go to control panel and print a test page successfully, but word/excel will not print. In order to resolve the issue they close the program, reopen it and printing works straight away. Today I asked them to restart the print
    spooler, instead of closing/reopening word, this did not resolve the issue. closing and reopening did fix the issue.
    So far they have experienced the issue with Word and Excel only, however they don't use the other programs a great deal.
    The printers are distributed with group policy. In addition to network printers they use PDF Factory (which is like PDF Creator).
    I have been unable to reproduce the issue.
    Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

    Hi,
    From your description , I understand that you got message ”word cannot print, there is no printer installed” when clicked the print icon.
    If you do not have a default printer, use the Add Printer Wizard to install one.
    Follow these steps:
    Click Start and then click Devices and Printers.
    Under Printer Tasks, click Add a printer, and then follow the instructions to install your default printer driver.
    Note If your printer model is not listed in the Manufacturers and Printers lists, see the Hardware
    Compatibility List (HCL) for an updated driver. To do this, visit the following Microsoft Web site:
    http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/hcl/default.mspx
    If your printer is not on the HCL, contact the printer manufacturer for drivers and instructions.
    Sincerely,
    Harry

    Hi,

    You may need to run the Fix it in this kb below:

    You can also try the steps in the section "Let me fix it myself". Although this kb is written for Outlook, it may help in your scenario as well.
