  • I keep getting the error message "Missing PDFMaker files. Do you want to run the installer in repair mode"

    I keep getting the error message "Missing PDFMaker files  Do you want to run the installer in repair mode"when I try to convert a file into a pdf.  I have tried uninstalling then reinstalling but I continue to get the message.  I am able directly print file, but there are some errors in the pages, but some of them have font errors. Please advise.

    Hey Suzanne,
    Could you please let me know what Acrobat version are you using and what kind of file are you trying to convert to PDF.
    If you are using an MS Office application, then PDF Maker has to be an active plug-in for the PDF conversion.
    Have you tried using Print to PDF option from the File menu for the same?
    Please check and then let me know.

  • HELP! ERROR MESSAGE: Missing PDFMaker Files

    Hello-
    My Adobe Acrobat Professional 7.0 has been running perfectly fine for over a year now. However, today I went to create a pdf. and I received the following error message:
    Missing PDFMaker Files
    Do you want to run the installer in repair mode?
    So I said yes, and then restarted my computer. That didn't fix it.
    I uninstalled Adobe Acrobat Professional and re-installed it. That didn't fix it.
    I really have no idea what to do. It's extremely frustrating because I have CS2 and the phone support people said they couldn't help me because I don't have the newer version. I'm looking for any sort of solution to this problem because it makes this program virtually useless.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • I do not get a readable or editable PDF file that has been converted to Microsoft Word.

    In the past I have been able to convert PDF files to MicroSoft Word, and Edit and Save the Documents. Now, the converted files are unreadable and uneditable. How do I correct this problem?

    Thanks for the email, Stacy!
    I don't have an old PDF file that I converted to MicroSoft Word, however the new file that I am trying to convert and edit is the same kind of file that I've converted and edited before; An Invoice from the same Company. Is there a possibility that a download, MicroSoft Compatibility Pack for the 2007 Office System, onto MicroSoft Windows XP Home Edition Version 2002 computer might be causing the problem? Should I download to (.doc) or (.docx)? Any help will be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,

    Hi Joseph,
    I'd like to assist!
    Have you tried converting one of your old PDF's that have worked in the past to see if it still works?
    Are these files scanned to PDF files?
    You may want to try utilizing the OCR solution.
    Let me know if that works.
    Looking forward to hearing back from you!
    Kind regards, Stacy

    Excellent!
    Please note the following:
    Note: iCloud Backup does not back up music, movies, and TV shows that you did not purchase from the iTunes Store, or any podcasts, audio books, or photos that you originally synced from your computer. iCloud Backup will restore your purchased music, movie, and app content from the iTunes and App Stores during the background restore process. Previous purchases may be unavailable if they are no longer in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.

  • TS3074 error message 'missing MSVCR80.dll' when trying to open iTunes

    Using Windows XP was unable to successfully download the newest version of iTunes on 30 January 2014. iTunes will not open on either of two PCs, a desktop and a Laptop. Reveived error message 7 (windows error 126). Tried several times, even uninstalled program and tried a new download.
    Anyone else having this problem?

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

  • I am unable to convert a pdf file to word as I get the error message indicates it contains XFA forms

    I am unable to convert a pdf file to word as I get the error message that pdf files containing XFA forms cannot be saved to the specified format.

    Hi curtlea,
    XFA forms are not regular PDF's but XML files in a PDF shell.
    To create a word file from those files, you first have to flatten the XFA forms by printing as PDF with the Adobe PDF Printer.
    Then you can save using ExportPDF the created static PDF as Word document.
