Convert Word to PDF with a Digital ID?

Hi,
I am looking for a solution to automate the process of adding Digital ID's to PDF's. Whenever I create a PDF from a Word Document with the Adobe PDF converter plug-in for Word I want it to add a Digital ID (certificate security) to that particular PDF. But as far as I can tell it is only possible to add password security to the PDF working this way.
So as things are now, I have to add the digital ID after I created the PDF, this is what I want to avoid. Is there a way to add a Digital ID while I convert the Word Document to PDF. Or a plug-in that does the same thing with only one click. Something to keep in mind is that the Certificate will always use the same Digital ID.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for replying.
This is probably what I'm looking for but I think I'm going wrong somewhere.
I tried changing the conversion options more specifically the "Adobe PDF security" setting.
This setting gives me 2 possibilities:
     - Reconfirm security for each job
     - Use the last known security settings
These are the only settings I can find regarding security settings. But both work with the password encrypting security.
Do keep in mind that I'm using Acrobat Pro 8.0.

  • Converting Word to PDF with inserting an image

    Hi!
    I want to create a PDF document from a wordfile. that's easy, I know. But the thing is: I want to place automatically an image from my company in the pdf. this image doesn't exist in the original wordfile.
    Are there any possibilities?
    Thanks for helping me.
    John

    Can't you insert the image into the word file and export that to a PDF?

  • Converting word to pdf with acrobat 9/distiller can not retain hyperlinks to web docs

    Have tried going to settings in Acrobat only  see option to retain book marks
    .  Online help indicates there is setting for RTF which would retain hyperlinks.  This is supposed to be
    in the settings extras folders but is not.  I am running Office 2000.

    MS Office compatibility for Acrobat 9's PDFMaker starts with Office XP (Office 2002/Office 10).

  • Hyperlink problem when converting Word to PDF

    Hi everyone.
    I am using Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Standard version 7.1.4 on a Windows 2000 environment.
    I am using Word XP/2002 SP3.
    I have a couple of problems when converting Word to PDF.
    When converting a long link which is in 2 lines, PDF just takes one line into account, not considering the whole link
    When I have hyperlinks that links to a web page, the link works fine in Word but in pdf, it gets the few words after the url address making the link not work.  For example.  I have a hyperlink that http://www.google.com/ and after this I have the words: "This is a sample text".  The hyperlink in pdf would then become http://www.google.comThisisasampletext
    Do you have any ideas how I can correct this?
    Thanks.

    To get the cross references, you have to use Convert to PDF (PDF Maker part of the Acrobat product). However, you first need to go to the print menu and set the printer to the Adobe PDF printer. Close the print menu and then do a reflow and link update of the document (ctrl-A, then F9 I think). This is needed to get the links correct since WORD reflows the document based on the printer (problem with them going to the wrong place).
    Printing to the Adobe PDF printer (the step of print to file is not needed, just print to the printer and the rest is automatic) does not include the links. PDF Maker is a PreProcessor for the Adobe PDF printer that adds PDF Marks to the PS file before it is sent to Distiller (OK, the printer when used normally creates a PS file and then invokes Distiller to complete the process - your steps did with the Adobe PDF printer is the same process done manually).
    Summary:
    1. Fix document after setting the printer to Adobe PDF.
    2. Use PDF Maker (create PDF button)

    I have a windows 7 desktop with office 2013 and adobe XI STD, every time i try to convert word to PDF or convert PDF to Tiff, my word stops working

    I have reinstalled the Adobe and did several repairs, then added adobe reader. when that did not work I reinstalled the Microsoft office 2013, still did not work.

  • Just converted word to PDF so that I can save on iPhone and subsequently use. Where is the file??

    Just converted word to PDF so that I can save on iPhone and subsequently use. Where is the file?? I have no idea where it is!! Extremely frustrating and not at all user friendly!! Took my 6.99 British pounds and not a sausage to be had!!

    It sounds like you may have purchased a CreatePDF subscription through safari, using our web interface. If this is the case, the good news is that subscription will also work with the (free) Adobe Reader. Simply install the Reader from the App Store:
    https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/adobe-reader/id469337564?mt=8
    Once installed, you can then use "Open In" from another app like Mail to open the Word document in Adobe Reader. Reader will show the word doc, but it will also show you a message pointing to the "convert" button (A document with an arrow through it in the toolbar). Pressing this button should prompt you to sign into Acrobat.com. Use the same account you used to purchase your subscription and Reader will upload the word document for conversion, placing it in the Acrobat.com and Outbox section of the Reader. Please let me know if you have trouble!

  • Bulk convert text to PDF with Acrobat

    Hi. When I convert a text file to PDF with Acrobat X Pro the character spacing in the resulting file is incorrect.  The columns of numbers which do correctly line up in the text file, do not line up correctly in the PDF file.  I adjust the settings for the conversion in the CREATE PDF FROM WEB PAGE box and I choose a fixed-width font.   If I use Adobe PDF Converter (the printer driver) the result is perfect.  If I open the text file with Microsoft Word and then convert it to PDF with PDFMaker, it is also perfect. I want to use Acrobat so that I can bulk convert my 300 text files to PDF.   Can you please help as I have tried everything?  Thank you.  Paul Pontikis (Deakin University)

    Thank you for responding LoriAUC.  I have 300 (*.txt) files that I only ever open with Notepad. I don't every open them in a web browser.  I want to bulk convert them to PDF.  The orientation of the resulting PDFs must be landscape.  It appears that the only way to select LANDSCAPE in Acrobat is to adjust the settings in the CREATE PDF FROM WEB PAGE box.  It seems that Acrobat uses its HTML Conversion Engine to convert text files to PDF.  When I do this and then bulk convert them using Bulk Convert Files to PDF, the orientation is correct, that is, landscape instead of the default portrait setting, however the character spacing is imprecise and the columns of data are wavy.

    When converting word to PDF and reducing the size, the formatting changes how can i keep the format but reduce the size?

    The original file is 32 MB:
    15 MB is images
    15 MB is Content stream
    2 MB is everything else
    After the PDF/A-1B save as:
    The file is 182 MB
    Almost 100% is Images
    It is an architecture portfolio with many complex images.  Is there a setting when I change to PDF/A that can limit the growth of the image files?

  • Problem converting Word to PDF

    I tried to convert (2000 times) word to PDF with same file(file size:1M,pages:64) ,but 81 times had catched a same error, The error message is: Error code:1011.
    Is anyone could help me?

    You will need to be very specific in what you are doing. What versions of WORD and Acrobat, what OS, etc. This is particularly important since there is no Adobe PDF Writer as a product. There used to be one under versions prior to AA6 and that may be your problem. How are you trying to create the PDF in WORD -- there is more than one way and we have no idea what you have tried to do.

  • Not converting word to pdf

    I installed adobe acrobat 5.0 on window 2000 server but its not converting word to pdf when I click by toolbal button system hangs.

    AA5 is not licensed for use in the server mode. As long as Acrobat is not available for use off the server, only local use, you should be OK. Try to print from WORD to the Acrobat Distiller printer. If that does not work, then try printing to file. If that works, then open the file in Distiller to see if you get a PDF. If you do, then AcroTray is not running. It may be that AcroTray will not run properly on W 2000 Server. As I recall, some folks tried with the 2003 server and had problems.

  • When converting word to pdf the cover page of my documet gets page number 1.On the original the numb

    When converting word to pdf the cover page of my documet gets page number 1.On the original the number pages start from the second page.How to keep the original format?

    Michael's reponse is correct. However, as far as I knew, OFFICE 2007 came with printer metrics turned off, meaning it is not supposed to be sensitive to the printer selection. The setting is buried in the options list for compatibility. If it is turned off and a change in printer does affect the result, it would appear just one more of the many things in OFFICE 2007 that MS messed up. The latest one for me has been helping students with the messed up equation editor when you want to add equation numbers in a "standard" way. One of the MS employees even wrote a workaround macro for that problem.
