No "convert to pdf " and no " print to pdf " option after install

I installed adobe acrobat reader professional 8 at home ( WIN 7 ) and everything works great there, but after installing it at work ( WIN 7 ) i have no option when i right click a file in the drop down menu that says " convert to adobe pdf ", and also in word i have no option to " Print to  PDF " in the printer menu.
Thoses options are on my home PC but not work PC ? the only thing i can think of is a USER RESTRICTION that is in place that does not give my user account the option to use thoses two options ?
Im I wrong  ? and if so how can i get thoses options at work like i have at home ?
TY for any help giving

First, you either have Adobe Acrobat Pro 8 Or Adobe Reader 8. Acrobat Reader Professional 8 does not exist.
If you have Acrobat, we'll try and work this out. If you have Reader, you don't get either of those items since it's made for viewing/printing PDF's.
My suggestion is to open the application you installed then go to the Help dropdown and see whether it says Acrobat or Reader. Also, be sure you don't have both products installed since that could cause similar issues as this.

  • Error trying to print report to both pdf and network printer

    Hi all,
    When trying to print a report to my network printer or to pdf I get the two errors attached, one right after the other.  The resulting pdf or hard copy has almost everything in it, except for three tables which are completely missing.  When I go back into the report and open the page with the missing table, the table is no longer visible in the report and I get the second error again.  Exiting and restarting diadem brings the tables back.
    I've found several threads about pdf and other print errors and tried the solutions there to no avail; specifically the one posted here.
    I hope there is a fix to this!  These reports are intended to sell management on diadem! Thanks!

    Hello testingHotAir,
    Just to make sure, do you have administrative privileges for this machine?
    Also, you have attempted these exact steps as posted by lerman?
    Make sure that you are logged in as Windows administrator.
    Click the Windows button and click Printers.
    Right-click the Diadem pdf Export and select Properties
    Click the Ports tab, then click the Add Port button.
    Note: If the Ports tab is greyed out, right-click the Diadem Pdf Export icon and select Run as admin.
    Select Local Port and click the New Port button.
    Enter PDF1 for the new port name and click OK. Close the Printer Ports window.
    Put a checkmark in the box next to the PDF1 port if it is not already checked.
    Click on the Advanced tab.
    Select the Spool print documents radio button to make the options below it clickable.
    Clear (uncheck) the box labeled Enable advanced printing features by clicking it.
    Select the Print directly to printer radio button to make the options below not clickable.
    Click the Apply button, then click OK.
    Important: In order for the changes to take effect, you must restart your computer.
    Reboot your computer and then try to print, email, or create a pdf from Diadem.

  • Gray box around images in PDF and when printing? Why?

    Hi,
    I'm using CS5 and I'm getting a gray box around any image embedded in my document.  The box comes if I click on it when a PDF and it prints around them.  I can't seem to figure this one out.  I'm not used to prepping files for print and I'm trying to send this out to someone who needs to print it.
    It's CMYK.
    I've tried to flatten transparency using both vector and rasterize.
    I've made sure the images are embedded.
    I can't figure this out!!
    Please, help.
    Thanks.

    does this look like your problem?

  • PDF portfolio cannot print all pdfs

    Hi,
    [system: win xp, acrobat 9.3.1]
    I cannot make acrobat print all pdfs in a portfolio. The user wants to be able to select multiple pdfs in the list in the portfolio and print - and I would expect Acrobat to be able to do that, but cannot make it work.
    To test this issue i produced to pdf in acrobat. Use create new from blank page. no#1 is 1 page no#2 is 2 pages.
    In acrobat click combine to single pdf > portfolio. I save my new pdf portfolio to the filesystem.
    I open the portfolio and select both pdfs and click print icon. I only see 'All' in print range and NOT 'All pdf files' as other users explain they do
    (for example in this post: http://prsync.com/adobe/batch-printing-pdfs-and-other-files-using-acrobat--19267/)
    Hope someone knows whats missing and how to solve it??.

    Did you follow the instructions on the website you gave in your post? In particular:
    You don't have to print all the PDFs in the portfolio. If you click the List View button, you can then CTRL-Click to select just the files you want to print. Then, choose File> Print and Acrobat will only print the selected files

  • Save as Reduced Size PDF and Save as Optimized PDF do not reduce the file size.  What gives?

    Save as Reduced Size PDF and Save as Optimized PDF do not reduce the file size.  What gives?  I used Acrobat 9 to do this for a long time.  I recently received new laptop loaded with with Acrobat 10 and it does not work the same.  I typically scan 8-10 pages of receipts, combine the files in Acrobat, and then optimize to reduce the size so I can upload with my expense report.  Typically, my files were reduced to 200-400 KB.  I have a 2 MB file that will not reduce at all.

    Bernd, thank you for your attempt to help but the option dialog windows do not contain the same options.  There are numerous other posts on this forum about this issue and there is no answer.  Clearly, there is an issue.  I have submitted this issue to our internal help desk.

  • HP 5510 wil not print in black ink after installing a new black ink cartridge

    My HP 5510 printer will not print in black ink after installing an official HP black ink cartridge.  I see other people have had the same problem.  I have gone through all the troubleshooting suggestions.  
    I would like to know if anyone has been able to fix this problem.  I just spend money on a new XL cartridge.  Any help/suggestions would be appreciated. 

    Hi @obxgirl,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see you are running into some print quality issues on your HP Photosmart 5510, you are unable to print in black ink.
    I would like you to continue here: Printer Does Not Print Black Ink or Color Ink, or Prints Blank Pages, I understand you may have done some of these steps already but I need you to complete all steps in order to resolve the missing black issue you are experiencing.
    Please note: There are three printhead cleaning stages. Complete all three stages if necessary. If the printhead is badly clogged, it might require another cleaning cycle. If so, wait 30 minutes after the last (third) cleaning stage to start the first stage of the cleaning process over again.
    If you are still unable to print in black ink, I suspect the issue may be the printer and not the cartridge. Please let me know which Country/Region you are in as well as the product Warranty status: HP Warranty Checker
    I hope to hear from you soon.
    Thanks,

  • Printer won't work after installing mountain lion?

    printer won't work after installing mountain lion?

    Assuming you've first checked Software Update to see if there are any updated drivers and it's still not working, you could try resetting the printing system.
    System Preferences>Print & Scan, Control+Click or Right Click on a printer on the left and select 'reset printing system'. All printers will be deleted and need to be added again.

  • HP4501e "print spooler off" error after installing printer update

    Motorola Android OS, getting "print spooler off" error after installing printer update... have rebooted both printer and phone to no avail... any help ideas?

    Loralee,
    ??  I am sorry the computer is not working.  I don't work for HP and cannot comment on lawsuits or other calamities.
    If the notebook worked prior to an update -- and this is an entirely different can of worms and problems -- and you think that there is any chance the notebook is just in some sort of "tangled" state and not completely hosed for some reason, you can try the following non-lethal device reset:
    Create a Restore Point:   Create a Restore Point – Win7 OR  Create a restore point Win8
    If you are using a Notebook:
    Close all your programs and shut down the computer
    Disconnect everything (little Unifier for the keyboard / external mouse can stay)
    Perform the Hard Reset for your notebook model
    Boot the computer and log in
    Reminder:  Hard Reset is just a device Reset.  The procedure does not wipe out your files nor does it destroy your Windows setup in any way.  This type of reset "clears the cobwebs". Depending on the root cause of the problem, this procedure can fix a variety of computer glitches.
    This does not fix severe Operating System errors -- it is just a device reset.  It can fix minor problems that updates sometimes cause.

    I purchased and downloaded Lightroom 5.5. After installing it, I was prompted for the serial number. When I entered it an error message appeared saying it was an upgrade serial number and I need to enter my original purchase number. This was my original purchase, not an upgrade. Now what do I do?

    It sounds like you bought an upgrade from Adobe. How much did you pay? The upgrade is about $80, and the non-upgrade is about $150. If you bought an upgrade version and had no previous version, you would see what you're seeing.
    If that is the case and I were you, I'd call Adobe, and arrange for a refund and to order the correct version.
