Installing Acrobat Pro 7 on Windows 7: Adobe PDF Printer won't install

Moving to a new system, Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit Already installed FrameMaker 8, without installing the Adobe PDF printer. Now trying to install my trusty copy of Acrobat Pro version 7. I get a "Warining 20225" (see attached), and the printer driver does not install.
What do I have to do here? Uninstall FM8, uninstall Acrobat, reinstall Acrobat, reinstall FM8?
--C

What do I have to do here?
Buy and install Adobe Acrobat X.

If it is Win 7 or later, the Adobe PDF printer for AA 7 will not install and AcroTray will not function. You will have to install a PS driver from Adobe or maybe an HP color PS printer driver. Then edit the driver properties and change the name to Adobe PDF and the port to FILE. You will always have to do an extra step in creating PDFs by opening the file that is created in Distiller to get the PDF.
If you are talking about Win 8, you may not be successful at all. If you got Acrobat and Distiller to install, then there is a chance.

Acrobat 9.0 for Window - Cannot create PDF Printer

I can't create a printer as non of the drivers in "C:\program Files\adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Acrobat\Xtras\AdobePDF" work. Re-installing does not work either. I tried installing older verions 7 & 8, both created Adobe PDF Printer... when installing version 9 it deletes the printer.
The message I get is: PDFMaker cannot locate the Adobe PDF Printer's printer driver. Please re-insall Adobe Acrobat 9.0
Anyone have any idea how to resolve this?

Do as I do on some items. Install a utility called TypeIt4Me the go to the announcement. Copy the link. choose add clipping give it a name put / or \ at the end so it you type the same words normally it don't trigger the typeIt4Me entry. then when you need to type the words (code used) and wait for TypeIt4Me enter it. the item highlighted in my attachment is this:

How do I install a Adobe pdf printer?

Upgrade from Acrobat Pro X to Pro XI destroyed my prior Adobe pdf printer. How do I reinstall the printer instance without reinstalling Acrobat XI?
I found a reply for an earlier version of Acrobat, but I have no interest in installing the PDF printer into \Desktop or \Documents. Whatever it said to do didn't work and I've received no reply to my question posted on that old thread.
So, how do I recreate the Adobe PDF printer, and, how do I do so while selecting where I want the .pdf files to be located?
Thanks in advance for help

What OS are you running? If it is a version of Windows, is it 32 or 64 bit? Are you using 11.0.0? Did you reboot after the install? If you did not reboot, then do that first. The next step is to run a repair and then do the updates (XI is currently at 11.0.03). Both the Repair and the Updates can be run from the Help menu.

Adobe Pdf Printer stopped working after update to Acrobat DC

Hello, I have installed Acrobat DC yesterday. Since then, Adobe Pdf Printer stopped working. It always gets stuck at Checking Fonts and any software the print originated from just hangs and I have to force it closed.
I tried uninstalling the printer and installing it manually, repairing Acrobat installation but nothing changed.
So, can somebody help me? Thanks.

A method which is written here not working - because if you start to remove the fonts one by other you will see that the list does not end there.
I did so
1. i copied the folder with the fonts from the other clean system and replace with fonts in my system
2. then i restore the registry tree HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts
3. i check system with sfc /scannow
after these procedures Distiller DC continue to crash...
In this time distiller crashed when it cheking their fonts in C:\Program Files(x86)\Adobe\Acrobat DC\Resources\Font
after i rename the folder from Font to Font_ in order to he did not check this folder
at next run Distiller crashed at the font wingding.ttf after remowing that font he crash at Vrinda.ttf (this is a oficial font of Win7 and come with him) after removing that font distiller crash at the next font name of Vani.ttf (this is a Win7 font too) - when i saw it goes on forever i back my system to normal status and uninstal Acrobat DC and back to Acrobat XI...this version work with out any problems.
We are waiting a hotfix to resolving this problem with Acrobat DC

Adobe PDF Printer (Acrobat Pro 9.3.2) causes Print Spooler crash on Windows 7 64-bit

We have recently upgraded our office to Windows 7 64-bit. This upgrade has been very smooth with the exception of Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro. We are running Acrobat 9.3.2, I know there are a couple of additional updates available but they do not fix this issue if installed.
The problem occurs when users create documents using the Adobe PDF printer. The Print Spooler will crash, causing the application they are printing from to stop responding and they are forced to close the program. From this point onwards the user will be unable to print to any printer whatsoever, until they restart their computer. Stopping and starting the print spooler (clearing temp files as well) sometimes corrects the issue, but by the time they have found an admin to do this they may as well just restart.
I should note that this problem is not very consistent. It occurs sometimes after one PDF has been created, sometimes after they have created many PDFs, and sometimes not at all. It doesn't seem to matter which application they create the PDF from either. It's very irritating because I can't pin it down to anything in particular.
I've Googled a lot around this subject and I can see that I am not the only one with this issue, however there don't seem to be any solutions out there. This issue is widespread across our organisation and I would greatly appreciate any constructive suggestions on finding a resolution.
Many thanks, Steve.

Several months ago, I started working on this issue and thought that I had it resolved by uninstalling the "Internet Printing Client" from "Windows Features" (Start > Control Panel > Programs and Features > Turn Windows features on or off > expand Print and Document Services > uncheck Internet Printing Client). This change seemed to help at the time, as I was then unable to reproduce the issue and the end-user was unable to reproduce the issue for two weeks after (thus I closed the help desk case). But now it looks like the issue is back. Maybe the above setting will help someone else, but I'm now looking for a permanent fix.
PS: I have instructed our users on the "Save as PDF" option provided in Office 2010, but I don't think that is used all the time, and the PDF printer is there only option in other applications (IE for example).
Anybody had this issue and found a fix?
Thanks,
Justin

I purchased the software in 2013 and never registered i, apparently. When directed on Adobe's site to access the serial number, it takes me to an outside 3rd party site, which I tried but it does not actually work. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi mrmacnology,
Please check and ensure that you should not have any prior version of Acrobat already installed on your computer.

Adobe PDF Printer not working as print driver; 9.5.5 (pro) with Windows 7, 64 bit

I have installed, repaired, uninstalled and re-installed Acrobat Pro 9.5.5 on a newly formatted SSD with Windows 7, 64 bit on my desktop machine. The program was installed from Acrobat Pro 9.0.0 and updated within the program. I have the program also installed on my laptop, and the Adobe PDF Printer driver is working properly on my laptop.
On my desktop with the newly formatted SSD, the Adobe PDF printer driver is not working. Note that I am using the printer driver, and not any pdf creation techniques within MS Office or other programs.
When I go to the Adobe PDF printing preferences on my desktop, I only get a generic, two tab window open. When I print a file to this printer on my desktop machine, I do not get a window opening that asks where to create the pdf or what to name it, and I never see any files created. In MS Word, the Create PDF option under the Acrobat tab works and opens a dialog to ask the name and location to save, and then opens a PDF Maker progress window and properly creates the file. I can also save a file as an .eps or .ps file and use Distiller to create the pdf. However I cannot get the Adobe PDF printer driver in my Devices and Printers to work properly, although it works just fine on my laptop with the same program (Pro 9.5.5) and same Windows version (7, 64 bit).
Repairing, uninstalling and re-installing does not solve the problem. Acrotray.exe *32 process is running. Any ideas on why this won't run properly on my desktop, but will run on a similarly configured laptop?
On my laptop, I get a full, (7) tabl menu with all the normal options:

I found this answer from Deepak Chauhan on another forum, and it solved this problem!
Try this to add Adobe PDF printer manually on Windows 7, and Windows Vista.
If windows 7 is Enterprise or better edition: (Admin rights required)
Start>search for printmanagement.msc and open the print management module
Expand the print server and expand the computer name to see availbale printers, drivers and printer ports.
- from printers ensure there's no Adobe PDF printer, if there is delete it
- go to ports and delete the PDF ports (the ones ending in *.pdf)
- go to drivers and delete the PDF converter.
Take note if any errors occur, but continue with the following steps regardless.
If on windows 7 home edition, just goto start>Devices and Printers and ensure PDF pritner is not listed.
Then open the registry (if any erors deleting these keys happen, see below)
1: go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Print\Printers
delete any adobe PDF printer subkey present
2: go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Monitors
delee the PDF port monitor if present
3: go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Printers
again delete and pdf printer subkey
If any erros occur, you need to set the owner of the key to the currently logged in admin user, then ensure that user has full control.
Do this by right-click the key and selecting permissions, clicking on advanced, then the owner tab.
Once you've all that has been done, open a command line as administrator.
Copy and pate the following commands in order
1: net stop spooler
2: rundll32.exe setupapi.dll,InstallHinfSection AdobePDFPortMonitor 128 C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Acrobat\Xtras\AdobePDF\AdobePDF.inf
3: net start spooler
4:rundll32.exe printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /if /b "Adobe PDF" /f "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Acrobat\Xtras\AdobePDF\AdobePDF.inf" /r "Documents\*.pdf" /m "Adobe PDF Converter"
That should set back the pdf printer.
This seemed to provide the link that provided the Adobe PDF Settings tab to the Adobe PDF Printing Preferences that was missing!

Acrobat X Pro suddenly no Adobe PDF printer available within applications

I have been using X Pro for 2 months following installation of CS5.5 Premium. I used to be able to print-to-file using the Adobe PDF printer in the print dialog box from within apps such as Word and Finale. Suddenly that option is absent from my print dialog box in all apps.

Hi Bill,
I'm SO glad I tried your HELP suggestion first because un- and re-installing was going to be my next step and I dreaded it, and now, given the info you provide below, it appears it was a good thing I didn't do it. Thanks for the further information. I keep a log to refer to when gremlins like this pop up and this is going into it ASAP!!!

Great. We often hear of folks having uninstalled and reinstalled and problems not going away. The repair is the first line of defense if you have not been able to track down a problem. The last line is a reinstall. One of the problems with reinstalls is that folks do not clean up the system before the install. That clean up should include removal of all latent folder parts left by Acrobat and also running a registry cleaner (MS used to have one, but it is not longer available -- making CCleaner the typical cleanup). So if you have problems in the future, try to trouble shoot it and come to the forum if you need help. Sometimes, the repair is a quick fix, and lastly with no other answers do the reinstall--BUT with the cleanup along the way. Again, glad it worked for you.

Problem Printing To Adobe PDF Printer Acrobat PRO 9

Hello,
I have the following problem , a Windows XP Pro PC SP2 with Adaobe Acrobat 9 pro installed.
Starting Acrobat seems to work.
Printing to the Acrobad PDF printer gives always error message that is is not possible to print to the Printer.
Try to print a test page
Check if the printer is on
Reinstall the printer.
I have deinstalled the full Acrobat , rebooted the PC , reinstalled the Acrobat 9 Pro. Same problem. It is not possible to print from for example Word, Wordpad,..... to the ADOBE PDF printer.
Any suggestions ?
Thanks

Hello,
When i open for example Word, and try to print from there to the PDF writer like you proposed.
I select print to file.
There is a warning something about PS fonts. After clicking this away.
There is a error that it is not possible to print but the filename I have given is Created (.prn)
Opening The distiller, when I click there open. I don’t have the possibility to select my file because the distiller is closing directly without any warning.
When I go to Services , Acrotray is listed.
So the ACrobat 9 is Creation Nothing at all, it is just the main program that i can start, scan from scanner is no problem wut when saving the Actobat is closing.
The acrobat is upated to the latest version.
Is it possible that the Windows XP is corrupt ?
Can you proved me with a solution ?
Thanks
