Installing Acrobat Standard 6.0 under Windows 8 & Microsoft Office 2013 - compatability issues

In older Windows/Office versions, a PDF Printer was integrated into software, such as Word. this would allow you to print directly into Acrobat in PDF format.
Under Windows 8 Office 2013 there seem to be compatability issues and I can not longer print to Acrobat.
Are there any patches or solutions out there ??

i'm a fan of doPDF:  www.dopdf.com
which allows any app with print capabilities to print a pdf document.

  • Is Acrobat Standard 10 incompatible with Windows Microsoft Word 2003, v 11.8?

    An Acrobat Add-In has to be disabled for me to open a Word file.  If the Add-In is disabled I cannot create a .pdf.  The error dialog box attributes the problem to a runtime error due to program c:\program files\microsoft office\office11\winword exe.  An associated dialog box says that Runtime is shutting down Adobe Acrobat 10 early because the security is too high.  But putting Word Macro Security setting on medium and then on low doesn't help.  Nor does telling a Microsoft security box that Adobe.com is a trusted site.  I have spent critical hours trying to fix this, without result.  I would appreciate whatever help I can get.  I didn't have any trouble creating .pdf files with Acrobat 9.  Tks. DWI. 

    Word 2003 is compatible with the PDF Maker macro for Acrobat X Std. What OS are you running? Have you tried to load the PDF Maker macro manually?
    Exit all programs.
    Select Tools > Customize, and click the Commands tab.
    Click Tools in the Categories panel.
    Drag COM Add-ins from the Commands panel to the Tools menu while holding down the mouse button. When the Tools menu displays the menu commands, drag COM Add-ins just below the Customize option, and then release the mouse button.
    Click Close.
    Click COM Add-ins on the Tools menu.
    Click Add, locate the add-in (the PDFMaker Add-in is at [Acrobat Installation Path]\PDFMaker\Office\PDFMOfficeAddIn.dll), and click OK.
    Press Alt+F11 to start the Visual Basic Editor.
    Press Ctrl+G to start the Immediate Window of Visual Basic Editor.
    To start PDFMaker in Word, type Application.COMAddIns("PDFMaker.OfficeAddin").Connect = True. Close the Visual Basic Editor.
    Verify that the Adobe PDF menu now appears to the right of Help on the Microsoft Word menu bar.
    Also, renaming the global template file, Normal.dot, sometimes helps resolve the issue. There are instructions at the bottom of this article from Microsoft that explain how to do this.

  • Windows 8.1 - Microsoft Office 2013 Program Issues

    After 8.1 Windows and Malicious software updates installed, I cannot open my MS Office 2013 programs without the Error with shortcut coming up and "The item Outlook.exe that the shortcut refers to has been changed or moved, so the shortcut will no longer
    work properly.  Do you want to delete it?"  Also when just clicking on a file, a window comes up to ask how do I want to open this file (see below).  I didn't do anything.  The PC just did updates upon shut down last night. 
    System restore didn't fix issue either.  Please help.

    It sounds as though the executable (.exe) files are configured to open with notepad. Unfortunately you cannot manage .exe association with a launched application from the Default Programs Control Panel applet. You will need to reset the configuration of
    the .exe association within the registry. The default configuration is:
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.exe]
    @="exefile"
    "Content Type"="application/x-msdownload"
    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.exe\PersistentHandler]
    @="{098f2470-bae0-11cd-b579-08002b30bfeb}"
    I have exported these keys to a .reg file which you can download and merge on your system to replace the corrupted keys,
    the link is here.
    Disclaimer: As editing the registry can produce an unstable system or even prevent the system from booting, it is only recommended for advanced users comfortable with the ramifications. It is recommended to
    back up any keys that might be edited and to have a
    recovery environment available.

  • Microsoft Office 2011 Compatibility Issue

    I have experienced problems with Microsoft Office since upgrading to Mavericks -- specifically Word, which is the only Office application that I use regularly. Since upgrading, Word crashes when I go to open (most, although not all) existing Word files.
    The "Problem Report for Microsoft Word" message I get is as follows:
    Exception Type:  EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGBUS)
    Exception Codes: KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE at 0x000000001cbd6000
    Notably, this problem only affects my primary workstation, which is a Mac Pro 2 x 2.8 Ghz Quad Core Intel Xeon desktop system. I don't seem to have the problem on my (2011) Macbook Pro.
    I have already downloaded the Microsoft Office 2011 Suite and reinstalled it. No help. Thoughts? This is fairly annoying and at times debilitating.
    Thanks -- Keith.

    Thanks Varjak. I'm willing to download and reinstall Office again, but I'm not sure what "support files" you're referencing here. Please advise.
    Also, I do not use Font Book, I use Linotype Font Explorer X Pro. I regularly delete font caches and remove duplicate fonts, etc.
    While you may not be experiencing any issues with Office in Mavericks on your systems, problems aren't unique to me. There are other discussions on Apple Forums. Here's one conclusion:

    Re: are there any issues with Mavericks OS with Office for Mac
    Nov 24, 2013 7:48 AM (in response to shldr2thewheel)
    It is a widespread issue and yes there are problems with Office 2011 but Microsoft will not address them.
    I believe I have a better chance of solving the problem by querying other Apple users who work in a similar environment.
    Thanks.

  • Failing to install Acrobat standard 7 on Windows 8.1

    I am trying to install Acrobat Standard 7 from a cd onto a new pc with windows 8.1
    It gets to the point where it says its installing it but nothing progresses after that.
    Is windows 8.1 compatible with this old version of acrobat?
    I dont want to buy a newer version as I am retired and only really need to  use it occasionally now

    Hi ProfKVal,
    Acrobat Standard 7 has not been tested with Windows 8.1, so it is not compatible.
    If you use it only to view PDFs then you can download the Adobe Reader which is a free PDF viewer.

  • How do I install Microsoft Office 2013 on my Mac via my Windows 8 Parallels Desktop 8 partition?

    I recently bought a copy of Windows 8, Microsoft Office 2013 and Parallels Desktop 8 for Mac.
    I wanted to install a Windows partition on my Mac so that I could run MS Office 2013 on a virtual machine.
    I set up the VM, and everything was looking fine and worked smoothly.
    Then, when I inserted the MS Office 2013 disk into the CD drive, nothing happened!
    I tried to install MS Office 2013 but to no avail.
    Does anyone know how to overcome this issue?
    Thanks.

    In the Configure menu item, under Virtual Machine, configure the CD/DVD to be recognized by your SuperDrive:
    The only drawback is that you have to quit Parallels for the drive to be recognized by the Mac again.
    I just purchased the Office 365 subscription for both Office 2011 on my Mac and Office 2013 on my Windows 7 side - sure makes life simpler, and less expensive.

    Hi riffpizcy,
    Error 148:3 is a licensing error.
    Try following the steps mentioned in the KB: Error "Licensing has stopped working" | Windows
    You can download Acrobat 9 Std. from: https://files.acrobat.com/a/preview/8d640488-4a92-4f7d-b50b-d8eb7f96bff8
    You can upgrade from Acrobat 9 to Acrobat 11 Pro at $199 USD
    Please refer: Buying guide | Adobe Acrobat XI Pro  for more information.

  • What is the newest version of Adobe Acrobat Standard that runs on Windows XP SP3? I currently have Adobe Acrobat Standard 6.0.0. Thanks!

    What is the newest version of Adobe Acrobat Standard that runs on Windows XP SP3? I currently have Adobe Acrobat Standard 6.0.0. Thanks!

    The current updates 10.1.13 and 11.0.10 no longer support Windows XP SP3.  The last versions to test were 10.1.10 and 11.0.3 I think.   But I wouldn't recommend using those because of the Security Updates in between those versions and the current updates.  Microsoft doesn't even support Windows XP SP3 any longer. I would say to try updating both the OS and the applications.

  • I am trying to re-install Acrobat Standard 9 on new laptop.  Only Acrobat Pro 9 available on Web download.  How can I re-download 9?

    I am trying to re-install Acrobat Standard 9 on a new laptop.  I have the correct serial number, but when I try to download from the Adobe website only Acrobat Pro 9 will download and it states my serial number is incorrect.  How to resolve?

    You can search the forum for where they have indicated use by PM. That is what I would have to do also. The other option is to wait and see if one of them drops by and will give it to you. Probably a long wait.
    In the meantime, try Adobe Acrobat X (10) Pro, Reader, and Suite Direct Download Links | ProDesignTools. The link is down about 4 screens.

    Hey fdciii,
    Please try renaming the ARM folder at this location:
    C:\ProgramData\Adobe\ARM
    Now try updating Acrobat from the Help menu.
