Pdf maker in Office 2013

I just got a new computer with Office 2013 and installed Acrobat X Standard in it. However, the pdf maker does not show up in the Office applications. Any suggestions on how to get this?

Hi alejaf,
Acrobat 10 is incompatible with office 2013.

PDF Maker crashing Outlook 2013 in Windows 8.1

I have:
Windows 8.1 64-bit
Outlook 2013 64-bit
Adobe Acrobat XI Standard, 11.0.06
This is what I do:
Start Outlook. Outllok crashes: Displays popup window saying "Microsoft Outlook has stopped working". The only option is "Close program" I click which closes the popup window. Outlook did not start at all.
I start Outlook a second time. This time Outlook starts but has a yellow bar at the top that says, "ADD-IN PROBLEM". I click to view Disabled Add-Ins. PDF Maker Office COM Add-in is disabled. I click to enable.
I close Outlook. Then I start Outlook again. Outlook crashes as before. The second time has PDF Maker disabled as before, etc.
Looks like Adobe PDF Maker crashes Outlook 2013.

I'm surprised that nobody from Adobe replied. I guess Adobe does not care if users are having problems using their software.
In any case, I found that if you right-click on Outlook, then run Outlook in administrator mode, Outlook starts up, and PDF Maker does not crash Outlook. So I guess that means that if you want the extra protection of not running Outlook in Administrator mode, then you cannot use Adobe Acrobat.
I like Adobe Acrobat. So, this leaves me in a quandry. I tried other PDF makers and editors. I like Adobe Acrobat the best. I remember Nuance's PDF software was so buggy. As far as I can tell, Adobe Acrobat has only one bug, and that bug is only in the PDF Maker part. Everything else Adobe has been working. But I also don't want to give up the protection by having to run Outlook in Administrator Mode.

PDF Maker in Excel 2013

I am running Windows 8.1 with Office 2013 and Acrobat XI. Can't get the PDFMaker add in to load automatically in Excel unless I load as Administrator. Can this be fixed?

You have to do the updates to AA XI before the ribbon comes up in OFFICE. OFFICE 2013 came out after AA XI and the updates addressed the fixes.

PDF Addin in office 2013 - Certificate Expired

Dear All,
We have just updated our Office Version to 2013 in my firm and decided to enable the option "Require Application Add-ins to be signed by trusted publisher", for security reasons
We are also using Acrobat Pro XI 11.0.5 and have noticed that PDF Addin is not loaded due to this security setting.
We have checked the Digital Signature of the file PDFMOfficeAddin.dll and noticed that it is expired (Valid from 20/09/12 to 21/09/13).
Is there any possibility to make this addin available using our security restriction ?
Many thanks in advance for your help,

Having the same issue with Office 2010 and Acrobat XI. We are manadated to enable "Require Application Add-ins to be signed by trusted publisher" and need to find the solution to the expired certificate.

PDF created from Office 2013 with Acrobat X doesn't have correct page size

We have a process of quickly creating PDFs along with combining several Word files to PDF by utilizing the "right click" on a Word file(s) to save as a PDF within Windows. Many times, our page size in Word is 5.5 X 8.5 and it does not save actual page size once PDF is created by using the "right click" and defaults to 8 1/2 X 11. Is there a way to fix this or edit a setting? It works fine from within Word if you "Save as" or "Export" but we need the right click to save as actual page size. Please help. It worked fine in all previous versions of Word/Office. Thanks!

Hi pwhite2315,
Could you please let me know what version of Acrobat are you using.
Try using 'Create PDF' option under Acrobat ribbon in your word file and check for the same.
Also, please open 'Preferences' for Acrobat PDFMaker and check what 'Conversion Settings' have you selected.
Let me know.

Acrobat 8 PDF printing with Windows 8.1/MS office 2013

I upgraded computer to Windows 8.1 and MS office professional 2013 and reinstalled adobe acrobat 8.
When I try to create pdf files from office 2013 document (Excel, Word, Publisher), computer freezes when window opens to select pfd document destination.
I tried opening office document in acrobat and try to create pdf file. I get pdf maker missing at this point.
Before updating computer I ran compatibility tool and it indicated my acrobat 8.3.1 was compatible with Windows 8.1; however noted that I needed to go to adobe website for help with adobe ExtendScript toolkit 2. I don’t know what adobe ExtendScript toolkit 2 is and if it is associated with Adobe Acrobat or CS3.

I have no idea about the extend tool. You need to update to the latest version of AA 8, but it appears you are there with 8.3.1. You should print to the Adobe PDF printer. OFFICE 2013 is not compatible with the AA8 PDF Maker. So far I have only seen one person suggesting success with AA8 and Win8.1. If you can give details about your problem, we might be able to help, but you may not be successful. Only time and trial will tell.

Why does running PDF Maker or Save As PDF cause MS Word 2013 to fail?

BizGuru,
Somethings to consider.
--| In Windows - the OS needs a goodly space for 'elbow room' - you don't want to have HDD free space drop below something like 15%.
Say your HDD is 600GB, 60GB free space is leaving you 10%...
-| RAM - May not be enough; more is better <g>.
--| Virtual Memory - if in Windows, open up Task Manager. Look at all the "stuff" there. Most is not required by the OS.
Most of the listing is "stuff" associated with a full cart of processes associated with things you may not need or use but they suck up resources.
--| Graphics - Processing images into PDF can be resource intensive. Having a dedicated graphics card with enough ram makes a difference.
Be well...

How do I reinstall my PDF maker?

How do I reinstall my PDF Maker for Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional?

Might your question be completed like "after upgrading OFFICE to 2010 (or 2013)." If that is the case, you can't. AA8 PDF Maker is only compatible with OFFICE 2007, not the later versions. If that is not the case, then it may be that you have disabled PDF Maker in OFFICE at some point. In that case you have to enable the plugin. A repair of AA8 should also put in the PDF maker if there is an issue with the current one and you do have a compatible OFFICE.

Adobe Acrobat 8. Receiving error "Missing PDF maker files"

I have had this software for several years and have had no problems.
I am receiving the error note above when trying to merge two files into a single PDF file.
I tried reloading the software and also looked on line for updates. There were no updates posted.
Any ideas?

You have to have AA8.1 to use PDF Maker with OFFICE 2007. With AA7, you can only print to the Adobe PDF printer. If you are upgrading to Win7, then upgrade to AA9 to go with it.

How to create B/W PDF from MS Office Documents

Hi,
I am producing PDF documents from within Word 2003 using Acrobat X. The Word source contains some color, but I would like to produce a Black and White PDF. When using Acrobat X as a printer driver, I have to option to set Black and White output, but I cannot find this option in the settings of "Acrobat PDF Maker" within Office.
Any help would be appreciated.

Supported Filetypes (Office 2013)

I am using Acrobat 11.0.3 with Office 2013. When I try to combine files into a PDF, in the Add Files browser, only pdf files show up. Office files like .docx and .xlsx do not display, even though those files are in the folder selected. When I try to sort by the filetypes, office filetypes are not listed amongst the supported filetypes. Currently, my workaround is to convert the files to pdf using the Office 2013 plug-in from within word or excel, but it would be nice if I could cut that step out and just convert the files directly from within adobe.
Please advise. Thank you.

Hi EddieB1977,
I believe there may be one of two obstacles you are running into:
1) When you select 'Add files' be sure in the bottom right that the option of 'all supported file types' is selected.
2) If you installed Acrobat XI before Office then be sure to go under 'help' after you open Acrobat and select the 'repair installation'.
Let me know if these help!
Looking forward to hearing back from you.
Regards, Stacy

Did you install the updates? They are required to work with Office 2013 that was released after AA XI.

PDF Maker not shown in excel 2013 ribbon

I have got Windows 7 64-bit. I have excel 2013 installed on it. I have recently installed every version of adobe acrobat reader but when i open excel I cant see the PDF Maker add-in in the ribbon.
I have checked it in COM-Add ins list and it is being marked checked. But its not showing up. I have currently installed version 11 of adobe acrobat XI Pro. But issue remains same.
I have searched on google.com a lot but did not find anything.
Can anyone help?
What should I install to get the PDF Maker in the ribbon? Any fixes?

You have to do the updates to AA XI before the ribbon comes up in OFFICE. OFFICE 2013 came out after AA XI and the updates addressed the fixes.
