Outlook 2007/Adobe 9 Converting Folders to PDF

I have converted several email folders in Outlook 2007 to PDF so that I can delete the folders from my outlook but have them saved in client folders. When I try to access these saved pdf emails on my computer, I get the error message that "There was an error opening this document. The file cannot be found." But when I go to someone else's computer, they file opens just fine. I need to be able to access these on my computer. Can someone please help me? (I do not want responses telling me you don't have a button in Outlook to convert to pdf please. I cannot help you with that and obviously you cannot help me.)

The Save and Save As save to the current version. To save to an earlier version you must use either Reduce File Size or the PDF Optimizer. Be careful about the job.settings file you use in such a case and the possibility of fonts being removed that you want embedded (font tab in PDF Optimizer). Both of these have settings to select for version. I am not sure about the extra settings with the Reduce File Size, so you will have to check the fast web view with a sample.

Can Adobe convert ODF to PDF?

Would like to convert my ODF files to Adobe PDF files. Would Adobe capable to convert the ODF files to PDF?

In Mac version go to File Menu > Print > PDF (hold button down until context menu pops up choose Adobe PDF.
Follow items that come on the screen.
First screen is equivalent to Job Options in Distiller. And choose whether to open Acrobat, Reader when finished.
Next screen name the file and choose desired location, then hit save. This uses the Adobe Engine Not Apple's PDF engine which is somewhat broken.

Convert email to PDF

Version: Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard
Using: Microsoft Outlook 2007
Feature: Convert to Adobe PDF
Issue: Unable to convert encrypted emails to PDF Portfolio. I can open the encrypted email and convert it to PDF (single email to single PDF). However, I cannot select multiple emails in a folder (i.e., Inbox), some encrypted/some not encrypted, or all encrypted, and then convert to PDF (portfolio PDF). I can select multiple emails that are not encrypted and convert them to a portfolio PDF just fine. It is the encrypted emails that are failing.
Does anyone have a solution, a setting that must be changed, or a process that must be followed to make this work?
Thank you in advance.

Acrobat X Pro converting Outlook Folders to PDF

I'm having an issue (Or more specifically one of my users is.)
He has a process flow of exporting EMail folders to PDF when he is done with a related project.
This keeps his mailbox small and his projects easy to reference.
Recently when he tries to convert a folder to a PDF it seems to succeed.
All of the e-mails are readable, but it breaking/corrupting attached documents where it used to neatly embed them into the relevant PDFs.
They still show up with the correct names and file extensions, they still show that the PDF has an attachment.
When we attempt to open it however the documents don't work with what ever their native program may have been.
(Usually blueprints or the like.)
He accesses Outlook and Acobat Pro through a Citrix farm.
Is there any settings or permissions I should be looking at to ensure this works correctly for him?
I haven't been able to find the root cause.
Thanks in advance,

Acrobat 9 / Outlook 2007 - Convert Mail Folder to PDF Crashes Outlook

Procedure:
Opened Outlook 2007, selected email folder, right clicked email folder, selected from menu: Convert "folder" to Adobe PDF, selected save
Problem:
After many successful such folder conversions, one email folder in particular caused Outlook 2007 to crash when half way through conversion
Solution:
Finally, upon about the 7th attempt, I noticed Outlook crashed when attempting to convert one particular email file (within the folder)
The name of the offending email file was visible during the conversion process
I reopened Outlook, examined the offending email and discovered it contained Japanese characters in the attachments
I then deleted the offending email and recommenced the procedure
All ran smoothly as per normal, Problem Solved!
I hope this helps somebody out there

I searched everywhere on the web for a solution and came up with nothing - so when I finally worked it out (simple in hindsight) I just had to make the post (my very 1st!).

Converting Outlook 2007 email to PDF; Have to reboot PC to convert multiple times

I have an end user who converts multiple emails to PDF for filing purposes. Adobe converts multiple emails in a portfolio style. Email can be seen as in a file at the top and seen seperately ebelow. After 2-3 times Adobe won't convert to portfolio format, won't give error message, but will convert all selected email as one large PDF. Until user reboots machine, portfolios can't be created. Tried on two different machines same issue. Using Adobe 9 Pro and Outlook 2007.

Problem converting Outlook 2007 email to PDF

We have a new problem that recently appeared. Sometimes when we click on the Adobe PDF tab in Outlook 2007 and select "Convert to Adobe PDF", when we go to open the resulting pdf file, we get the following message "Multiple Files are Bound together in the PDF Package....". This occurs in Adobe 8.1. Sometimes we don't get the message but when we go to open the file again, we get the message. We have checked and we have the most current update to Adobe 8.1. Any ideas what could be causing this behaviour and what can be done to fix it?

Hi "sjohnstoncpa",
Please clarify the steps you can replicate the problem with. Plus, it would be really nice if you could post a snapshot of the error message. Thanks!

Acrobat Pro XI - "Failed to Export" when exporting Shared Mailbox Folders to PDF in Outlook 2007 - any solution?

When trying to export a Shared Mailbox folder in Outlook 2007 to PDF, messages are failing consistently.
We are using the latest and greatest Adobe Acrobat XI.
It will export a little bit of the folder and then fail the rest of the items.
There are approximately 929 items in the folder, and about 237 exported before the failures started happening.
Any advice would be great!

Bill - there is a typo above. Customer is using Acrobat X, not XI.
When we tested, we upgraded the office suite to 2010 and it worked with XI. We will just have to get him both upgraded. This hopefully should resolve the issue.
I will check back in with the results.

Adobe Reader X and searching within PDFs in Outlook 2007

Hello,
Is it possible to search within pdfs attached to emails in Outlook 2007 via the search box in Outlook? I currently have Adobe Acrobat Reader X installed and Outlook 2007. Is there an iFilter available for this functionality within Reader X or would I need to either go back to Reader 9 or upgrade to a newer version to have this capability?
Thanks.

This may help a few of you here.
I'm running IE 8 and Adobe Reader X on a WIN64Bit system.
Reader X wouldn't open an embedded PDF with IE8 64BIT. AR X seems to like an older version of IE.
Go to your START menu and you should see "Internet Explorer" and "Internet Explore (64-bit)".
Open a window with the "Internet Explorer", not the (64-bit).
In the IE8 window you'll see a "?" on the tool bar. Open it and click on "About Internet Explorer".
You should NOT SEE "64-bit Edition".
If you don't see "64-Bit Edition", go and try to view the PDF again.
It works for me and it seems I'll have to live with it until there's a patch for 64-Bit.

Creating PDF bookmarks from Outlook 2007

Hi, I am using Outlook 2007 SP1 and Acrobat 8.1.3 Professional and I want to have bookmarks in the PDF that is created by hitting the Create Adobe PDF from Folders button in Outlook. I used to have this feature when I was using Acrobat 7 with Outlook 2003.
I found this previous thread, but the solution given does not help, I still can not create the bookmarks like I could with Acrobat 7.

I do have the create PDF package selected, but I don't see how to create the bookmarks.

Outlook 2007 and Adobe Acrobat Standard 8.0

I have Outlook 2007 and Adobe Acrobat Standard 8.0. I had to reformat my computer recently. I am using Win XP.
I used to have a couple of adobe buttons in outlook that allowed me to pdf entire email folders. Now, no matter what I do, I can't get these buttons back. It is super frustrating.
Any input highly welcome.

Try updating AA8. It is at something like AA8.2.5.

PDF Maker/Outlook 2007 crashing issue

When using Adobe PDF maker in outlook 2007 it often crashes. Is there a maximum PDF portfolio size that you can archive emails into? It seems once my file hits a certain size I need to begin a new file for the process to run? How can I fix this?

There are some known issues with Acrobat X and Outlook. These issues are as follows (taken from the Known issues documentation):
If Outlook is online with Exchange (cached Exchange Mode OFF), then PDFMaker can only convert 249 mails through selection. All the mails after that are skipped with Status "Unable to open secured message."
You can open messages in Outlook in the same session where PDFMaker conversion through selection had failed.
Folder conversion works fine. PDFMaker successfully converts 10000 mails in an online folder on exchange server.
Tested for Outlook 2007, Outlook 2003, and Outlook XP. Same behavior irrespective of outlook version.
PDFMaker should be able to convert up to 1000 mails through selection with Cached Exchange Mode OFF. [1662502]

Pdf's are extremely slow to open and attach in outlook 2007

For the past two weeks, Pdf's are extremely slow to open and attach in outlook 2007. currently have Adobe Acrobat X Standard and Adobe Reader X running on windows 7, using microsoft office 2007. is anyone else having this issue?

In an effort to try and solve this I have converted the four reports to native POJO datasources. I thought that maybe the report was looking for the ODBC data source upon which the reports were designed. The ODBC approach was used to help speed up design and development. Now that the DB schema is up and running I can use the POJO and eclipse for preview.
No change in startup and exporting on the QA system.

Acrobat 8.1 and Outlook 2007, still can't save as pdf

I have intalled Acrobat 8.1, and while all the PDF goodies seem installed in Word 2007, they are not installed in Outlook 2007. Still can't save as pdf in Outlook 2007.
I querried at MS Forums, only to be referred to Adobe Forums. --GJ

To PDL
It doesn't matter what are the names of these forums. Major companies provide these *official* forums to harvest troubleshooting results of their products for free. You never be able to test your product on this number of various environment this much cheap.
Unlike their support services these "USER" forums provides them with those product issues they are looking for without ANY obligation to solve them or even accept their existence. And best of all they collect all these information at no cost.
However, in honest and considerate companies, development team members share their opinions with forum users. They even admit they are aware of issues but have no solution for them at this time. If team members do not have enough time for providing feedback, they somehow use *well-trained* individuals to discuss the issues.
Those companies do not "Read and Hide". They "read and discuss".
Anyway, unfortunatly, the links you found are not related to this discussion. They are about PDFMaker issue in other component of Office not Outlook.
