Conversion of Word 2007 Docs to PDF

I am using Word 2007 & Acrobat 9 Pro.  I am attempting to convert a chinese document into a PDF file within Word 2007.  After conversion,  many of the chinese characters are missing and replaced with an empty box.  Why?  What can I do to correct this.  Printing to Adobe captures all of the chinese characters but does not capture the bottom border.  HELP!!!!

Bill Thanks... 
The issued turned out that doing formatting and inserting pictures in the Word 2007 document,  that the font changed from Sim Sun (Asian) to Times New Roman.  However, the screen did not look any different and I did not notice the change.  (Microsoft, please explain this phenomonem!!)Changing the font back to the Sim Sun that was already installed in Word 2007 solved the problem.

  • Word 2007 doc to PDF missing bookmark numbers

    Hi,
    I am using Acrobat 9 Pro to convert a Word 2007 doc to PDF. The doc converts fine and I get the bookmarks.
    The problem though is that the generated bookmarks are missing their numbers.
    For example:
    In Word 2007, it will look like:
    1 Overview
    1.1 Introduction
    In Acrobat 9 Pro generated PDF, it looks like:
    Overview
    Introduction
    I looked through the forums and other people have posted similar questions but no resolution was seen.
    Can somebody please help out?
    I talked to Adobe tech support and they were no help.
    Thanks

    Hi all,
    Here is an update to this issue.
    First of all I agree with Nick that this *is* an Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro issue. (Possibly even with older versions).
    Anyway below are the steps I followed to get this to work. It is quite a round about way but I'm happy I got it to work.
    * Generate the PDF as usual from Word 2007. (Maybe you don't need to generate the bookmarks here because we are going to delete them later anyway).
    * Open the newly generated PDF in Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro
    * Click on the Bookmarks tab---if you have the Word 2007 generated bookmarks here select them all (Ctrl-A) and delete them :(
    * Then click on the "Gears" icon in the Bookmarks tab.
    * In the drop down menu select the "New Bookmarks from Structure..."
    * Highlight the structures you wish to have for your bookmarks. For example I chose H1, H2, H3 assuming those were Heading1, ...
    * Click OK
    * The newly generated bookmarks contain section numbers
    * Unfortunately this shows up within a bookmark called "Untitled" So I again select all (Ctrl-A)
    * Unselect "untitled" and move (drag) everything else to one level above "Untitled"
    * Then I delete "Untitled".
    Unfortunately this new bookmark is a flat structure---i.e. you cannot collapse it.
    Oh well! At least it works.
    If any of you can come up with a better solution, please post it here :)
    Thanks

  • Problem converting Word 2007 DOC to PDF 9

    Problem converting Word 2007 DOC to PDF 9
    I have a Word 2007 DOC (not docx) file with pictures and text which converted perfectly with Distiller 8. I installed CS4 Distiller 9, and now the same DOC file flows over onto several extra pages. I am using the default settings. Any idea what has changed. Thanks in advance.

    First, select the Adobe PDF printer in WORD. Then go through the document to check for the flow of the document. It should print the same as you see in the document after the printer has been selected.

  • Convert Word 2007 doc to PDF, numbered bookmarks lose numbering

    I've never had trouble converting a Word 2007 document to PDF before. All the bookmarks I selected converted nicely and retained their numbering. Recently my IT department upgraded me to Acrobat Pro X and I'm having several bookmark issues.
    1. Some of the bookmarks I select in the Acrobat ribbon --> Preferences --> Bookmarks are not converted and I have to manually create them in the PDF.
    2. None of the bookmarks retain Word numbering. I have Word 2007 Headings numbered in the document, but in the PDF, none of the bookmarks are numbered. This is a major pain to edit each bookmark to add the proper heading numbers (1, 1.1, 1.2, 2, 2.1, etc.).
    Are these known issues and are defect corrections in the works? Is anyone else having these problems?

    I'm having the same problem. As you can see, the number appears in the heading, which came from MS Word, but not in the bookmark.

  • Problems retaining page size when converting MS WORD 2007 doc to PDF

    I am having a problem converting Word documents that are not standard page size to a PDF. When I do the conversion, the PDF is resized to 8.5 x 11, even though the original WORD doc was 5.5 x 8.5
    This happens even when I go into the Acrobat Preferences and change the default page size to 5.5 x 8.5.
    The worst of it is, it does not happen with everyone who uses a particular computer here. It happens to some, but not to others.
    Does anyone have any experience with this?
    Thanks.

    It's happening the same way on several different computers here.
    Everyone logs in with their own userid on each machine. We are all working with the same MS WORD documents. These documents are non-standard sizes -- 6 x 9, or 5.5 x 8.5.
    Everyone uses the same version of Acrobat Professional, and selects "Convert to PDF from file".
    For some people, the PDF is created from the Word doc, and the original page size is retained. This is what we want.
    However, for others, the PDF is created as 8.5 x 11, no matter what the original size of the document was. No amount of fiddling with the default page size, in either Acrobat or Word, changes this.
    It is driving me crazy, and I was hoping that at least one other person on the planet has come across this problem. Is this an Adobe or a Microsoft problem? Could it be a Windows registry setting?
    Advice is appreciated!

  • How to convert large Word 2007 doc (1200 KB) to PDF with Acrobat 9 Standard

    I'm trying to convert a large Word 2007 document to PDF with Acrobat 9 Standard.  It gets as far as 58% and then says it is unable to complete the conversion.  How can I fix this?

    The file you are working on is really not that large. There probably is a problem on a certain page of the document. Break the document in half. Try to create a pdf file from each half. Hopefully, one half prints properly and one-half does not. Take the half that does not break it in half.  Try to convert each half into a pdf, etc...
    Eventually, you will find which page has a problem. Most likely there is a graphic or a font used on that page that has problem. Most likely a graphic. That graphic will need to be recreated.

  • Multiple Word 2007 docs into one PDF version 6

    Hello to everyone,
    I am a newbie to this.  I did check some of the most recent posts but didn't find anything that fit my issue.  I have an end-user here that is running Office 2007 SP2 and running Adobe Acrobat V6.  He used to be able to select multiple word documents and make them into one pdf by right clicking on them and selecting that process.  After we upgraded him to Word 2007 it stopped working.  He is still able to select multiple word documents and right click to add them to one PDF but what comes up in word is garbled and nothing else seems to happen ( the process tends to halt and do nothing).
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance,
    Susie

    For the software combination the person now has, PDFs can only be created by opening the application and using the Print function to print to the Adobe PDF printer. In the past you were depending on PDF Maker interacting with WORD to create the PDF when opening in Acrobat. With the upgrade to WORD 2007, your current PDF Maker will not work and thus you can only print.
    If your creation process is critical, you have no choice but to upgrade to AA9 to obtain the compatibility for OFFICE 2007. OFFICE 2003 did not even exist at the time AA6 was released as I recall. Your office updates have made other software imcompatible - a MS issue if you wish.

  • Word 2007 published as pdf opens by default in Photoshop

    I'm running XP SP2. When I "Save As" a Word 2007 document as "PDF", and then click "Publish", (the file name has an extension of .pdf, and the file type is .pdf), Photoshop opens automatically. What I want to have happen is for the the .pdf document I have created to automatically open in Acrobat Reader, in .pdf format.
    I also note that I do have a .pdf printer installed when I go to print from Word.
    The Adobe products I have installed are Distiller 4.0 (Acrobat 4.0), and Acrobat Reader 8.1.2. Also, Pagemaker 7.0.2 and Photoshop 6.0.1.
    I am totally befuddled.

    It is likely that you have file associations messed up in Windows. If you double click a PDF in Explorer, does the file open in Reader or Photoshop? If the latter, you need to fix the file associations. Keep in mind that saving as a PDF from WORD is not the same as creating a PDF using Acrobat (which apparently do not have). For questions about Reader, you should go to the Reader forum in the future. Maybe my guess has answered your current problem.

  • Converting Word 2007 files to PDF

    Hi,
    When I convert Word 2007 file to PDF via Acrobat Pro. 9, The Section Titles show on the bookmark area are as usual, but the Section number for the titles are disappear. For Example: the title set as "1.1 Test", the bookmark shows only "Test" and the "1.1" is disappeared. (the title assigned as style heading 3 and the section number is generated by multi-level list).
    I have been converting Word 2003 file via Acrobat Pro. 7 and Word 2007 file Via Acrobat 8.1, they are all fine.
    I tried to change settings on PDFmaker for Acorbat Pro 9 and failed. I also checked through the manual and found nothing. Can anyone tell me how to have both the section number and title show on the Bookmark section of PDF file with my present MS Word 2007 setting (the title assigned as style heading 3 and the section number is generated by multi-level list)?
    Thanks,
    Jeffrey

    Steve, Samnol,
    Thanks for your advice and sorry for the late reponse because I tried to re-install Acrobat 8 and 9 and see if anything changed.
    The good news I got from this weekend is that the problem regarding the "Missing of section numbers in the Bookmark when I converted the Word 2007 to PDF" has been resolved after I update the patch published on 01 March 2009.  I will keep running Rev 9 on trail basis and work out the recommendation to the company.  I am glad that I can get rid of the old Office 2003 and Acrobat 7 for the time being.  It has been a heck for me to run dual Office system.
    Thanks again for the advise.
    Jeffrey

  • Converting Word 2007 Styles to PDF

    I just upgraded to word 2007. I don't have the PDF Maker for word installed (where you see the Acrobat option on the toolbar in word), and not sure it will install with 2007. So the first question is: Does it? Second question. If you can install PDF Maker with Word 2007, How do you go about doing it? Reinstall Acrobat? (note: I have acrobat 8 professional) And finally the third question is: if PDF Maker can't be installed to work with Word 2007, how do you automatically convert word 2007 Styles into PDF bookmarks. I'd rather not have to recreate them all after creating the PDF.
    Thanks in advance.
    Rob

    Aha! That was the missing piece. After the 8.1.2 update, I now see the Acrobat toolbar in word. All set! I was freaking out when I didn't see the toolbar, but did see the acrobat macro in word. Phew.
    Thanks for your help!

  • Problems converting Word 2007 images to PDF

    Hello everyone,
    I am in desperate need for help. I have been trying to convert my word 2007 files into PDF but my graphs and tables come out not as clear as the orginals, the outline of images is thicker, the characters seem darker/bold and occasionally with distortions.
    I have Microsoft Office Word 2007 and Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional.
    I really hope someone can help me because it is a major issue for me as I need to publish the content of my file very soon.
    Thank you in advance for your help.

    Just to check things here are a few steps.<br /><br />Checking that the process works in basic form:<br />1. Print to the Adobe PDF printer with Print To File selected.<br />2. Open the file in Distiller to convert to PDF.<br />a. WORKS - That means things work fine and we need to look for AcroTray.<br />b. FAILS - Look at the messages that Distiller creates. That typically provides information on the problem.<br /><br />For AcroTray:<br />1. Open Explorer and go to the Distiller folder. It is typically in Program Files>Adobe>Acrobat <your AA number>>Distiller. In that folder you should see AcroTray.exe. (in my case the folder is C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0\Distillr) Put a link to AcroTray.exe in the Startup Folder of Windows so that it always starts with Windows.<br /><br />Once you have started AcroTray, you should be able to print directly to the Adobe PDF printer without the file option and get a PDF directly. All that AcroTray does is automate the print to file and running of Distiler. PDF Maker is adds an additional step by putting PDF Marks in the printer file that is written before running Distiller.<br /><br />Hope that helps. Bill

    Am not able to get beyond the error msg. 
    Help anyone?

    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:
    AppName acrord exe AppVer: 9.3.0148 ModName: acrord32.dll ModVer: 9.3.0.148 Offset: 0019371a.

  • Can't create PDF from MS word 2007 Doc

    I am using CS3 Acrobat Pro 8.2 and I can't get a Word doc to PDF.  It starts but then just stops at about 10%.  I have tried importing from Acrobat and just get an error message stating "An unexpected error occurred. PDFMaker was unable to produce the Adobe PDF."
    Anyone have any ideas as to what may be the problem?

    Bill, when using Word or any other MS office app, the process begins the conversion then just stops about 10-15% of the way and the process window disappears.  No error message, nothing.  It just stops.  Now, I can save items as a "Quick and Simple PDF" but not as a "Fully functional PDF" when saving from Word.  So I have narrowed it down that far.  The screen shot below was created in Word and saved as a Quick and Simple PDF from Word.
    When trying to use the Create PDF function from AA, I get an unexpected error message.

  • How do you keep embedded documents during conversion from Word 2007 to PDF?

    Windows 7, with all available patches.
    Word 2007, with all available patches.
    Acrobat reader 9.3.2
    I have additional documents, spreadsheets etc embedded into a Microsoft Office Word document. When this document is converted to the PDF (using the Word PDF add-in interface) the embedded objects can no longer be opened and only appear as images. 
    Is there a way to retain the embedded document during the conversion so that they can be opened from within the resulting PDF?
    Thanks in advance!

    Thanks very much for your repsonse, it's much appreciated
    I don't have Acrobat X installed at this time so am not able to create or edit PDFs (other than from Word).  I understand that creating a PDF from Word may not be an Acobat issue per se, but thought that someone on this forum may have experienced a similar problem, hence thought I'd try my luck here
    I will do as you suggest and try an MS forum
    Thanks again

  • Conversion from Word 2007 to PDF/X

    Is there a monthly subscription service to Acrobat XI PRO so that I could convert a Word document with
    text, graphs, and photos into PDF/X-1a or PDF/X-3?  None of the subscription services that I saw expressly
    state the type of conversion except to say its to PDF.  Why is this so hard for sales and Customer Service
    to figure this out?

    You can subscribe to Acrobat XI Pro via Creative Cloud, or as a standalone application.
