Error convert docx to PDF with Acrobat XI Pro. Unexpected error: PDFMaker could not create Adobe PDF

W7 Ent. x64 SP1, Office Prof.+ 2010 x64, Acrobat XI Pro.

Hi Rave,
No, I get the error no matter that documents I try to convert.
No, it have never worked.
I have uninstalled it and then reinstalled it again, I have updated it to 11.0.6 but it maid no difference.
Do you know how to reinstall just the PDFMaker?

  • Can I add a Youtube video to a PDF with Acrobat 9 Pro?

    I was reading about PDF portfolios in Acrobat X Pro: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobatpro/online-eportfolios-multimedia-presentations.html
    It says and I quote, "With Acrobat X Pro, you can also present live web content. For example,  you can insert a YouTube video to play within your PDF Portfolio, or you  can add a web page that will dynamically load the most current page  content. Anyone can view your PDF Portfolio using free Adobe Reader®  software."
    Is this also possible with Acrobat 9 Pro? I have tried following all the steps (I even did a search and found this: http://teacherlink.ed.usu.edu/tlresources/training2/acrobat/AcrobatwMultimedia.pdf), however, whenever I add the Youtube url using the multimedia tool in Acrobat, I get the message 'no media file has been specified.'
    Is it not posisble to add Youtube videos to PDFs in version 9 pro?

    PDF Portfolios in Acrobat X support the use of 'live' Web pages as documents (they open in an embedded browser window). You can therefore create a reference to a page from the YouTube website, but the content will only appear if the viewer has a Web connection and allows trust access. It's essentially no different to including a Web link in a regular file, except the browser appears within the Acrobat or Adobe Reader window.

  • Acrobat X Pro v10.1.9: Cannot print to Adobe PDF Printer (access is denied)

    Hello.
    Suddenly I was not able to print Office 2013 files / Autocad files / Internet Explorer pages directly to Adobe PDF Printer anymore on my WINDOWS 7 Ultimate x64 sp1 computer.
    I have tried to uninstall and reinstall Acrobat X Pro, but the issue was not resolved.
    Neither after updating to the latest version (10.1.9).
    When I try to print from any software (Office 2013 / AutoCAD 2012 / Others), are displayed two windows:
    a) the first one named "Printing (not responding)", with the information: "now printing the file..."
    b) the second one named "Save PDF File As", to where I do not have access to the filename fied to insert it neither to click the "cancel" button to abort the print dialog. It seems that this window is not active.
    I have to click on the red "X" button on the first window to shutdown the application. Here is the error dialog I got:

    Can anyone help me restoring this feature?

    The reinstall is typically the last ditch effort to do. The first step is Help>Repair and Help>Updates. As far as Office 2013, the PDF Maker of AA X is not compatible and you can only print. In your list of errors it showed a problem with AcroTray.exe. As a first step, go to the print and select print-to-file. The file will be a PS file (maybe with a PRN extension). Once the printer if finished, open the file in Distiller to complete the process. If that is successful, then the problem is with AcroTray. Check your running tasks to be sure AcroTray is indeed running. If not, that is likely the problem. If it is, then restart it (it is located in the Acrobat folder). AcroTray provides the interface between the PS creation and Distiller to automate the process of creating the PDF.

  • Issues converting .pmd to .pdf with Acrobat 9 Pro

    I have tried numerous ways to convert a .pmd file to a .pdf using the Acrobat 9 Pro with no luck.  I do not have PageMaker on my computer.  Any recommendations?

    It has been awhile since Adobe "retired" PageMaker.
    It is no longer an Adobe supported application; so Acrobat 9 PDFMaker does not have it listed as a supported application/file format.
    The migration path was to InDesign.
    As with any application that can be sent to a "printer" via File > Print
    If PageMaker is installed, its file can be sent to Adobe Printer for processing by Distiller.
    But, again, no PDFMaker.
    Be well...

  • Can't create hyperlinks after converting a Word document with Acrobat XI Pro

    Hello,
    Here's my problem.
    I'm making a catalog document for my company.
    The document that I'm converting to PDF is made on Office Word 2013 and it's a .docx format file.
    I'm on Windows 8 and the latest version of Adobe Acrobat XI Pro installed.
    Inside my word document I have some pictures that have a hyperlink. Those hyperlinks directionate to a bookmark inside the word document. Inside the word document, if I do Ctrl+Click over the image, it will go to the page that has that bookmark. And it works. Period.
    Beside that I also have some Cross-references on the word document. Those cross-references basically are the page number from the bookmark reference. By accident on most of those cross-refrences I left enabled the "Insert as hyperlink" on the cross-reference box options. When I Ctrl+Click over those cross-references I also go into the page of that cross-reference.
    After I convert the word document into pdf, I can't get any hyperlink on the pictures, if I simply click on them, like if I click on a hyperlink on a webpage or something similar, the pdf won't go the the bookmark on the page that I've set on the word document.
    The funny thing is that if I click on the other cross-references I can go to the page were that cross-reference is...
    I tried all the methods to convert the file in order to obtain hyperlinks on the images...
    I tried to use the Acrobat tab and the File -> Save as Adobe PDF, as both uses Acrobat PDFMaker, but nothing works.
    Even tried all options on Acrobat PDFMaker but can't get it. "Create bookmarks", "Add links", "Convert Word Bookmarks", "...Word Styles to Bookmarks", "...Word Headings to Bookmarks", none works....
    If I try to simply print from inside Word by choosing the Adobe PDF printer (like if I choose a regular printer), in the printers options it doesn't show up any hyperlink/link/bookmark option related, so that way is definitely a no go...
    To reference, on 2006/2007 I also worked on a similar project and used this method on the word document (on Word 2003). At that time I had another Adobe Acrobat version, can't remember what version was...
    This hyperlink situation was without any problem. After conversion, on the pdf file, if I click on a image it went to the right place inside that pdf file...
    So I'm simply lost wether it's a problem of me, a problem of Word, a problem from Acrobat... simply lost...
    I'm desperated....please, someone help me!!!

    Ok, sorry for never talk since the last time, but I finally discovered why I had this problem.
    I found out that M$ decided somehow to change the process of embedded hyperlinks on a image, but in a docx it doesn't get affected. Only after transforming it into a pdf by Acrobat that the problem emerges...
    I found this site http://www.pb-solv.net/2013/08/embed-pictures-in-microsoft-word.html
    Basically all I have to do is "Use Insert, Quick Parts, Field, IncludePicture. This inserts the picture in the old way as a field. You can use Alt-F9 to reveal the field codes and change the images to be embedded rather than linked."
    Then, after converting it with acrobat, the pdf finally have hyperlinks on the images!!!
    They change this on Word 2007. As I had the 2003, at the time, I didn't had this problem.
    As I said, M$ changed something, but only is affected after converting with acrobat. So, acrobat also missed something in the process. I call it a 50/50 guilt.
    To bad no one ever notice this problem...

  • How to create a PDF with Acrobat 8 Pro on a Mac?

    I have Adobe Acrobat 8 prof which came bundled with ScanSnap.
    I am using a MacBook Pro with Mac OS X  10.6.8.
    I have been trying to  'Create pdf from file'.
    Adobe won't load an RTF file, a Pages file or a Word file.
    It tells me to use the source application and print with Adobe PDF. When I try to do this I get the message
    Printer Ready
    You need to install software to use this printer. To install the software, choose Software Update from the Apple menu. If the software for your printer isn’t available in Software Update, contact the manufacturer of your printer.
    I have tried software update but Apple has not supplied an update for the Adobe printer.
    SO, what software do I need and where do I find it, to make Acrobat usable?

    Books are designed for and printed on 8.5 x 11 inch stock, US Letter size.  You shouldn't have to select any size.  While viewing the All Pages mode in the book Control-Click on the page and select Save Book as PDF from the contextual menu. 
    That will create a PDF that iPhoto uses to upload and print.  Not all pages will be the same size as the dust jacket will be present in it's full size, 32.8 inches x 8.91 inches:
    If you want a PDF that's designed for your own printing the type Command+P while viewing the All Pages window.  In the first print window click on the PDF button.  It will present you with a contextual menu where you should select Save as PDF.  That will give you an 8.5 x 11 PDF file with all pages the same size.

  • After clean install cannot print to pdf with Acrobat 8 Pro

    I recently had to do a clean install on my desktop computer.  Is there some way I can print to pdf with my Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro, which was working fine prior to the clean install.  I am aware Adobe no longer supports this version, but isn’t this program able to function without being updated?  Want to print pdf files from websites and Microsoft office.  Am running Windows 7 Ultimate OS.

    Hi jadbe,
    Windows 7 is not a tested platform for Acrobat 8.

  • Help with Acrobat X Pro Config Error

    Hello, I'm looking for some assistance with Config Error 130:11 on Acrobat X Pro running on Windows 7.
    The message reads:
    A problem has occured with the licensing of this product. Restart your computer and re-launch the product.
    Error: 130:11
    I'm using the subscription service for CS6.
    Help appreciated!
    Kieran

    Hi Sandeep,
    Thanks for your response.
    Acrobat Reader had been installed on the machine, but not an earlier version of Acrobat - it's a new machine, but I installed CS5 Design Standard before subscribing to CS6.
    Since my CS5 software was an upgrade (as was CS4 - I had been asked to re-enter the CS4 serial number), I think the Acrobat software was never fully installed prior to the CS6 download.
    The permissions for SLStore were:
    System & Administrator - Full Control
    Creator Owner - Special
    Users - Read & Execute
    Users - Speical
    The permissions for Adobe PCD & caps were:
    Administrator - Full Control
    Everyone - Read
    When the Adobe PCD & caps folders were moved to the Desktop & the Acrobat X Pro re-launched, I received an Error: 6 response:
    Please uninstall and reinstall the product. If this problem still occurs, please contact Adobe technical support... etc
    I assume this is my next step?
    Many thanks,
    Kieran

  • Automatically watermark all PDFs with Acrobat 9 Pro

    Is it possible to configure Acrobat 9 Pro so that all PDFs incorporate a predetermined watermark?

    Thanks very much for responding.
    I mean that what I'd like is that every time I create a PDF from a document or web page, it will automatically have my watermark inserted.
    I'm a real rookie and do not know how to create a script or a batch process?

  • Acrobat X Pro shows "The document could not be printed" error

    I used Acrobat X Pro to open an PDF file and then re-print it to another PDF by Adobe PDF printer. It shown a dialog with "The document could not be printed" message.
    Why do some PDF files occur this error ? How to fix this problem ? Thanks.

    Hi,
    Thanks for reporting the problem.
    It seems you are unable to print any pdf from Acrobat. You mentioned that you are able to print the same PDFs from iphone and other devices.
    Are you able to print from any other application(e.g. word, notepad) from the same machine where you are seeing the issue. It looks to me that your machine is not able to establish contact with the printer but your other devices are able to.
    Please confirm.
    Thanks,
    Atul

  • Batch Processing .doc 2 .pdf with Acrobat 8 Pro and Office 2004 on Tiger

    I have been through the forum posts and for each relavent thread there is the easy batch process that can be done to solve this issue - however, the major flaw I have is (as seen in the attachment) no option to be able to open Word docs. How do I enable Acrobat Pro to be able to open word docs??!?!? It really is an answer I have not been able to find on the web anywhere!

    Then what do you make of this persons post: http://forums.adobe.com/message/1098036#1098036
    "Create a new batch sequence. Select 'Run commands on Selected Folder'. In the source file options enable 'Microsoft Office Word'. Then let run the sequence."
    I am able to work out the whole process except in my Acrobat there is no option for "Microsoft Word" as Bernd suggests - how do I get it on the list.

  • Acrobat 7, needed with FrameMaker 7: How do I get and install an "Adobe PDF printer instance?"

    In FrameMaker, when I try to save a FrameMaker file as a PDF file, I get the following message: "FrameMaker could not find Adobe PDF printer instance, which must be installed to execute "Save as PDF" command".  I have a sinking feeling that I deleted that printer instance from my list of printers, thinking I did not need such a printer. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling FrameMaker 7, Acrobat 7 and Reader 9. All reinstalled successfully, EXCEPT still no Adobe PDF printer instance. Thus my question: how do I get and install that Adobe PDF printer instance?
    .( I am using a new computer. I still have my old computer available, with the Adobe PDF printer instance on it. If I could find where in the old machine (Windows XP)  the files are for it, I could copy them to the new machine).
    Thanks in advance  for any advice.

    Just curious,
    What is the new machine's OS (& is it 32-bit or 64-bit)?
    Be well...

  • 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.
