Converting .pptx file to .pdf Error...... Please Help!?

I am trying to convert a relatively large powerpoint 2007 presentation into a pdf document using the - right click> Convert to Adobe PDF - function.
I have only managed to carry this out on one file so I know it can work, but refuses to convert any other presentation. They are all of similar size containing both pictures and text.
I have enabled macros and active x within powerpoint, but still have trouble. Has anyone else had this problem?
Liam

Thank you for all your intrest.
The error message I get is... "an unexpected error occured. PDFMaker was unable to process the request".
When I then try to convert again, the system opens the ppt, but then does not do anything, and the error message does not show, for all presentations I try to convert.
I have also tried using the ribbon, but the button does not do anything once I have clicked.
I can print to PDF, but this provides an output which is not suitable, because it shows as if it each slide was printed on to paper and then put in PDF.
I have also uninstalled and reinstalled Acrobat to make sure nothing was corrupt.

    Created PDF form in Acrobat XI Pro, but HELP fields disappear when I save FCDT file to PDF. Please help. Thanks!

    I am not aware of a field type "Help" within a PDF form. I do not see it as a form field that can be added in the form edit mode.
    Forms Central forms do not support all the features of Acrobat forms.
    Are you talking about the "Tool Tips" or a hidden field that only shows when one enters a field and is hidden upon exiting the field.

  • Convert pagemaker file to PDF error message

    It stinks that they stop supporting it.
    The last version of PM was July 2001, all development stopped in 2004 and all support ceased in August 2010.
    After InDesign (Pagemaker 8?) came on stream in around 2000, there were several years of heavily discounted upgrades for PM users.
    So it's not as if it's just happened.

    Hi olivias,
    It sounds like there may be some confusion on your system about what application should be associated with PDF files. You can reset filename associations by following the steps in these articles (depending on your operating system):

  • I purchased the Adobe PDF Pack but it won't allow me to convert any files to pdf or combine multiple files to into 1 pdf form. It keeps saying "Error occurred while trying to access the file". WHY

    I purchased the Adobe PDF Pack for $7.50/month (or $89.99/yr) but it won't allow me to convert any files to pdf or combine multiple files into 1 pdf form. It keeps saying "An error occurred while trying to access the service". WHY is this happening & How can I fix it?

    Hi hpmg,
    It seems you are trying to access the service via Adobe Reader. Make sure you are signed in with your Adobe ID. Is Reader updated to the latest patch v 11.0.09?
    It might be possible that a firewall or antivirus might be breaking the connectivity from Reader to the server.
    Try accessing the service from the browser: https://cloud.acrobat.com/exportpdf  and check if that works for you.

    Hi,
    You don't say what components you are trying to import into the EUL. But it could be that you are importing a business area which has security access granted to a user that is not defined on the target system. It could also be that the user you are using to do the import does not have admin access to all the components you are importing.

  • Convert txt file to pdf using Acrobat Distiller

    Hi,
    We purchase years ago Distiller 8.1.0.
    Now, I try to convert txt file to pdf files, but I always get an error.
    Please Help,
    Hezi

    I have important information: Acrobat is not licensed for use server side, so you must not use it to build that solution, even if it is technically possible.
    Adobe's server side PDF creation product is LiveCycle PDF Generator https://www.adobe.com/sea/products/server/pdfgenerator/
    This comes in three editions. The "PostScript" edition is little more than a server-side version of Distiller, and will not convert TXT. However, the other two editions can convert a wide variety of formats.

  • 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,

  • 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).

    Hello, 
    Thank you for your answer. I really appreciate your help, but I need to write this conversion part manually and put into my macro (which is making a lot of more stuff, and this will be one of it functionality). Do you have any idea how I can do it?
    Basically, write I wrote before it just need to open a file, and print it with "Adobe PDF" printer. Unfortunately, I don't know how to do it.  
    Hello,
    For converting xps file to pdf, if your pc installed Office, then you could consider the way shared in the following thread.
    https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/4301147c-cc84-43ed-993f-691a8cb682b1/convert-xps-to-pdf-file-in-vs-2008?forum=vbgeneral

    Hi narayanan_1983,
    This article will tell you how to convert XPS file to PDF in vb.net:
    http://www.aspose.com/docs/display/pdfnet/Convert%20XPS%20files%20to%20PDF%20format
    From this article, we know that you could use  a class named
    [{{XpsLoadOptions}}] which is used to initialize a LoadOptions object. Later, this object is passed as an argument during the
    Document object initialization and it helps the PDF rendering engine to determine the source document's input format.
    ' Instantiate LoadOption object using XPS load option
    Dim options As Aspose.Pdf.LoadOptions = New XpsLoadOptions()
    ' Create document object
    Dim document As Aspose.Pdf.Document = New Aspose.Pdf.Document("D:\source.xps", options)
    ' Save the resultant PDF document
    document.Save("D:\resultant.pdf")
    If you have any other concern regarding this issue, please feel free to let me know.

  • Converting Framemaker files into PDF progaramatically using publishing server

    Hi All
    Background:
    We are going for upgrade of  Frame maker 8 which is on unix system  to FM 10 or 11. We are using Framemaker mainly for renditions, i.e to convert the fm documents to PDF. To convert fm document to PDF we are using the below mentioned command line utility available in FM 8.(on unix). /opt/app/frame8.0/bin/fmprint -i -p Sample.fm.fmtpl Sample.fm Currently the the fm file which need to converted to PDF and the FM 8(installed) are available on the same unix system ,so we were able to initiate/use the command line utility of FM 8. The rendition of the FM to PDF is On -Demand.( We are not running any batch activities/ bulk renditions).We are rendering the document as soon as the document  is available.
    Requirement:
    As we are going to  upgrade the FM to newer versions which would be installed on the Windows machine as Frame maker 10 or 11 will not support unix plat form, so can you please let us know which option is better to use i.e we want to convert fm file to PDF using java program without any manual intevention using publishing server/client version.
    can any one help us as it is very urgent for us.
    please let us know the ways to do and links for helpful documents .
    thank you very much for your help in advance!!\

    I paid to convert a file from pdf to Word and it is unintelligible. Why ?

    Hi M & B P,
    Please give the following a try:
    If you're converting via the ExportPDF website, log out, clear the cache, and then log back in.
    If you're converting from within Reader, choose Help > Check for Updates to make sure that you have the most current version.
    Please let us know how it goes. If you're still having problems, please let us know how you're converting, what browser you're using, and whether you're on Mac OS and Windows. We'll do some deeper digging if need be.
    Best,
