Printing a Word document to pdf

Is it possible to directly print a Word document to jpg through Adobe, or do I first have to print it to pdf and then save it as a jpg?

Hi jmt111,
It is not possible to convert Word document to JPG using Adobe Acrobat. You need to first convert the Word file to PDF and then you can save that PDF file to JPG (JPEG or TIFF or PNG).

Printing Word document as pdf files whilst retaining active internal links

Hi,
I have a Word file (Word 2004 for Mac Version 11.3.5) with active links to various sections within the document.
However, when I print this as a pdf file all the links become inactive. Is anyone aware of a way to prevent this?
Kind regards,
Damon

I tested this problem and got some interesting results. First of all, I created a document in Word 2004 (11.3.5) with two links, one to an external web site and the other to another Word document on my Mac. I then printed the file to pdf and opened the doc in Preview. Neither links were active, although as you have seen they look like a hyperlink. Opening the same document in Acrobat 8, the external link works but the internal link is still not active.
Next, I printed the Word document via the Adobe PDF 8.0 driver. The same result occured as above. The external link was active in Acrobat but not Preview, while the internal link was no good for either application.
I did some searching. Mactopia has no mention of this problem. There is a posting on Macosxhints with the same problem, but no fix. So unless someone else out there has an answer you may be out of luck for your internal link...

To save as a PDF, you do that from Print
To save as Wrod format, you export

Acrobat 11 Standard Office 2010 Pro Convert Word documents to PDF not working

Adobe community,
I can create PDF's inside Word 2010 using the Acrobat Add-in but right clicking a Word document or dragging a Word document into Adobe Acrobat 11 Standard does not work. I have updated both Acrobat 11 and Office 2010 with the latest updates available. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi markl16215442,
In order to convert word document to PDF by right-clicking or dragging the file, you must have Adobe PDF printer installed.
For Windows, please check that Adobe PDF is set as default printer under "Start > Devices and Printers"
While for MAC, Adobe PDF printer option is no more available and as it was removed with some changes in Apple's policy regarding virtual printers.
So, check with your OS and then let me know.

How do I access Adobe from Word to convert a word document to pdf?

How to I access an Adobe command in Word to convert a Word document to pdf?

Certain versions of Word will have an Adobe PDF menu in the ribbon, which allows you to convert the Word file you're viewing to a PDF directly, maintaining all the links, bookmarks, destinations, etc. in it.
The other option is to use the PDF Printer and print the Word document to a PDF. This will result in a "flat" copy of the file, without any of the meta-elements described above. Basically the same as printing it out, only you use a virtual printer that generates a PDF file.

Turn Word documents into PDfs

Is there any way to use Automator to create a command so that I can turn Word documents into PDFs in one easy step?
Thanks, Ken

Hi "jhaystead",
Apologies for making an incorrect suggestion. "Batch Conversion" is a feature in Acrobat 9 and above.
I'd suggest you use the "Open All" sequence > Double-click it to EDIT > For "2. Run Command On:" choose "Selected Folder" and BROWSE to the input folder. Similarly for "3. Select Output Location", you can choose "Same Folder as Original(s)", click OK and then "Run Sequence".
This would invoke the PDFMaker for conversion of Word documents to PDF and save the output PDF(s) at the folder mentioned, instead of printing and prompting to save the output each time Adobe PDF Printer is called.
Plus, could you please check if the Adobe PDF toolbar/menu options are there in Word and working fine?
When you said,
"The only way I can get PDFs produced is to manually open each word document, then save it as a PDF. I haven't had any luck with multiple PDF creation." Were you printing the Word documents to Adobe PDF Printer or using the PDFMaker options?
Thanks!

Unable to convert MS Word document to PDF document

Hi, I've not been able to convert a MS Word document to PDF version. I am using Adobe Acrobat 9.0 Pro Extenstion. I've uninstalled & reinstalled the SW & used to be able to do this task.

The followings are the error messages, thanks.
This error can be caused by:
General problems: The printer may be unavailable, the network may be down, the communication port to the printer may be corrupt or unavailable, a hardware error at the computer may have occurred (out of paper, paper jam, out of ink, out of toner, etc), and a language setting may need to be reset from the Regional Options control panel.
Local problems: There are several reasons for a local printer (a printer that is attached directly to your computer) to fail:
Check to make sure the printer has paper, ink, and/or toner and check the cables.
If the printer appears to be functional and a printer test by the printer itself indicates the printer is working properly, then check the cables, printer port from the computer, and configuration of the printer at the computer.
Occasionally, an application can develop a conflict with the printer driver and cause a memory leak which corrupts the printer port. If all else fails, restart the computer, recycle the power to the printer, and try printing again.
Occasionally it is even necessary to delete the printer driver and reinstall the latest version of the printer driver.
Network problems: There are various reasons for a network printer to be inaccessible: the name may have changed, it may be out of paper, out of ink, out of toner, down for maintenance, the network could be down, or a printer job previous to yours has stalled due to incorrect settings on the user's computer who last submitted a print job, or even your printer driver cannot communicate correctly with the printer. Network related printer failures are usually best handled by your local technical support.
Memory problems:On occasion, large print jobs with complex graphics or consisting of several hundred pages, which can consume large quantities of memory on the printer, may cause a problem (especially if there was an over run of memory at the printer). You may want to try reducing the amount of complex graphics in your print job, or break the print job up into smaller segments and see if that corrects your problem. It is not uncommon for a very complex graphic to have a defect or error which prevents it from printing on any printer. It may be necessary to load new or revised graphic converters or drivers in order to alleviate a problem of this type.

Converting a word document to pdf loses bevel effect

Does anyone know why when converting a word document to pdf the bevel effect is completely lost?

Following up with AA XI and WORD 2010 on Win7. It worked find. Apparently WORD 2007 did not see the bevels and the do appear in WORD 2010. I also got the bevels using the Std job settings with both the Print and the PDF Maker. I am using 11.0.07, so if you are using an earlier version, you might consider updating to the most current version. Then again, you may not be using XI. I did note that the Print version used my default page size of letter rather than the A4 that PDF Maker picked up from the original document. That is easy to correct by paper selection in the printer properties. However, in both versions I saw issues that appear to be due to the printer metrics changes based on the Adobe PDF printer not being selected as the printer during editing. Two factors show up and make editing a bit harder -- no hard page breaks (ctrl-Enter) and the use of floating figures. The latter is something I have lots of problems with, but you may be good with them. However, when the document reflows that can still be a problem. I did see some reflow problems in both files, so it is something you need to go back and review.
The bevels:
The Reflow Problem (from PDF Maker on A4 paper):
Maybe that helps some. So info on your versions of WORD, Acrobat, and OS would help isolate issues. As I mentioned, this Acrobat is 11.0.07. Don't know why WORD 2007 did not see your bevels.

Convert Controlled Word Documents to PDF's over intranet.

Good morning,
I have a requirement to take a word document that contains time sensitive information which expires 24 hours after printing (electronically or otherwise).
I am using VBScript for this and have been successful at doing the following.
I create the word document [ set wordDoc = createobject("word.application") ]
I set the Active Printer [wordDoc.ActivePrinter="Adobe PDF"]
I open the word document [wordDoc.Documents.open("path&filename.doc") path can be local or unc
I print the word document to ps [wordDoc.ActiveDocument.Printout ,,,"path&filename.ps",,,0
I close word document without saving and quit word
I can now create the pdf [set pdfDoc = createobject("pdfdistiller.pdfdistiller")]
I generate the pdf [pdfDoc.FileToPDF "path&file.ps",path&file.pdf,""
I now have a pdf document with the date and time reflecting the time the word document was opened for printing (now)
This works for Excel also with some slight modifications to code.
This all works exactly how I want it if I am connected to the IIS Server where the intranet is hosted and Adobe X Pro is installed. (Couple minor Internet Explorer tweaks to do ActiveX and keep security high)
My problem is, now I try from the client machine, using the UCN paths to the server, and the shared printer "Adobe PDF" and it is not functioning.
Any Ideas on what I may be doing wrong or what else I can try?

I assume that you mean that you can not install Acrobat on a Server and use it from a remote machine.
If this is what you meant do you have any ideas or suggestions?
I know that there must be some way to do this as you can upload a document to Adobe and then get a PDF version of it.
This is similar to what I want to do with the exception that the file does not need to be uploaded. All word documents are in a centeral location.
I click on a link to a page and send in a document file name. The function does the rest, creates pdf. The web page then opens the pdf that was generated.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folders. In OS X 10.9 there are two sandboxes, while in 10.8 there is only one. If you're running a version older than 10.8, this comment isn't applicable.
Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder—not just its contents—to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
Log out and log back in. Launch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window.
This action will delete any custom Mail stationery that you have created. If you want to preserve it, ask for instructions.
If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Repeat with this line:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.MailServiceAgent
Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

Merging word document with pdf file how do you renumber pages?

After merging a word document with pdf file, how do you renumber pages? The pdf has more pages than the word document. I first converted the word document to a pdf, using Acrobat Standard 9.

Hi Petek ,
After you merge the files or combine files ,click on the Page Thumbnails panel on the left hand side.
In the Page Thumbnail panel ,right click and you will get a drop down list .Select the option "Number Pages".
You will see a dialog box with several options .You can renumber the pages from there as per your requirement.

Convert word document to PDF file in SAP

Hello experts,
I've been searching around to get some code examples to upload a word document and convert it into a PDF file and then store it in unix. I hope one of you can help me, because many explanations and threads exist, but I did not get wiser reading them...
I don't want to use 3rd party tools to do the conversion, but do it directly in SAP with abap coding and if necessary spool processing.
System details:
SAP ECC 6.0 (unicode system)
SAP_ABA 700 0014 SAPKA70014 Cross-Application Component
SAP_BASIS 700 0014 SAPKB70014 SAP Basis Component
Thanks in advance!

Danny

Hi,
You can get the spool no from transaction SP01 and later use this spool no to convert the word document to PDF
using the function module CONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF and give the import parameter as ur spool id.
once the doc gets converted to PDF u can use CALL METHOD CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>FILE_SAVE_DIALOG
to get the path where the file is to be saved and later give the path to function module GUI_DOWNLOAD to download the file.
or else u can manually execute the following reports:
RSTXPDFT4 (give the spool no. as input)
RSPO0068 (give the word doc with its full path as input)
Hope that helps u
Regards,
Radhika

How to convert a word document to pdf

How do I convert a word document to pdf

Hi dionel33514362,
You can use either Adobe PDF Pack or Acrobat to convert Word documents to PDF.
Adobe PDF Pack is an online service, which allows you to upload files and convert them to PDF via a web interface.
See Acrobat Help | Create PDFs with Acrobat for information about creating PDF files in Acrobat. If you don't have Acrobat, please feel free to give it a try. You can download the free 30-day trial from the Acrobat link I mentioned above.
Please let us know if you have additional questions.
Best,
