Conversion of Word file to pdf

I have Acrobat Distiller 8 settings set to A4 and pdf 1.4.
When I convert a Word file to pdf using Create file in Adobe Professional 8 the paper size is in inches and the pdf file is in pdf 1.6. The Word files have paper size A4.
What can I do the get the right settings in the converted pdf?
Thanks and kind regards,
Els

I don't think this is possible with the current version of portal. I've read you can add file type items through API's in one of the next versions.
Maybe you can then write a script using ghostscript/ps2pdf. I haven't used this product, but it looks promising. http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/doc/AFPL/index.htm

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

Acrobat XI Pro successfully installed, but it failed in converting word files into PDF, why?

I just installed Adobe XI Pro through the download assistant, it looks the installation went well, but when I tried to convert word files into PDF (tried many times), it failed. Anyone has the same problems, any solutions?

Please reply with more information - what your operating system is, do you have Office installed, and what exactly is happening. Is there an error message, does the application crash, and from where are you starting the conversion (using Word and PDFMaker, using Acrobat's Create button, or batch processing).

Conversion of word doc to pdf with ms word how to change to pdf and then ppt?

I have used my ms word to convert word doc to pdf, i purchased conversion ability from link in adobe reader and what do i do next.
New to this.

Hi adog,
No worries! We'll get this sorted out for you. I'm not sure that I follow, though. You converted a Word file to PDF, and now you want to convert that file back to Word, and then to PowerPoint? That seems like a lot of steps, when you could import your Word document into a PowerPoint file.
If I'm missing something, and misunderstanding your process, please let me know. It's best to avoid unnecessary conversions from one format to another to another, if possible.
Best,
Sara

It would be helpful to know what version of Acrobat, WORD, and operating system.
Without that info, I would suggest at this point to open your WORD file and then go to the print menu and print to file using the Adobe PDF printer. Open the created file in Distiller and see if you get a PDF. If so, check to see if AcroTray is running in the background.
You say you tried many ways. It would help to know what you tried and what worked or did not work, and at what point the failure occurs.

What Adobe Software should be download (free trail-WinXP) to convert word file to pdf file?

I would like to know where I can download the captioned required free trial for WinXP from your website which can help me to convert the word file to pdf file.

Reformatting Word Files to PDF

I am changing over computers. On my old PC I only had Reader XI, but in Word files over the years (I am talking Word 2003 and 2007), under 'Save As', I was able to save to all kinds of formats, including PDF. I downloaded Reader XI on the new laptop but when I try the same procedure, the drop down list doesn't have PDF as an option. How can I rectify this?

Thanks, Claudio. It seems I may barking up the wrong tree. I'll try
Microsoft.

No option to attach word file or PDFs to mail servers

Hi
I have iPhone 4S and configured gmail account with it now I couldn't attach word file or PDFs to send. I could b able to attach images and videos files without issues
It's very urgent please suggest a solution ASAP

The only thiong you can access from within the native mail app is the Photos app (images and video). To send another type of file in an email, you need to start from the app you use to store or read the file, typically by tapping the action icon (box with an arrow) and selecting Mail.

Reader x will not allow me to convert word files to pdf

reader x will not let me convert word files to pdf's, even word files that have been converted before. unable to get support through adobe...

The free Reader has never been able to do much more than reading (opening) PDF files. It has never had the capacity to convert any kind of file to any other format. If you could do it before, you must have been using another Adobe program/service.

How to batch convert Word files to pdf

How do I batch convert Word files to pdf using Automator

Here is a drag/drop AppleScript solution that uses the command-line LibreOffice capability to convert MS Word (.doc, .docx) files into PDF. Drag/Drop a single file, or a folder of Word documents, and it will write the respective PDF back to the original file location. When it is done, an OS X Notification will slide out onto the Desktop and provide the count of processed files.
Save this AppleScript as a Desktop application that remains open after running. If you ignore the latter, the notification will not show when it is done. Tested on Mavericks 10.9.5.
property name_extension : {"doc", "docx"}

Conversion of Publisher file to PDF

I have a MS publisher file, 98mb in size which I cannot convert to PDF. Teh error message said I could try to install a windows printer. I did install the printer according to instructions and tried converting the file again wiht the same failure message. Do I need to do something to access the printer for the conversion or is this automatic?

Thank you. If it does come back where will I find it?

Having installed the printer, you must use it. You can't just install the printer then do the same thing you did before.
Open the file in Publisher, print to the special printer driver. It takes what is "printed" and sends it off for conversion. I'm still not hopeful it will come in under the size limits though.
