Reader x will not allow me to convert word files to pdf

reader x will not let me convert word files to pdf's, even word files that have been converted before. unable to get support through adobe...

The free Reader has never been able to do much more than reading (opening) PDF files. It has never had the capacity to convert any kind of file to any other format.  If you could do it before, you must have been using another Adobe program/service.

    i subscribed to conversion software in reader x but it will not allow me to convert.  keeps coming up with subscribe window

    Hi Don,
    I apologize for the delay in your service.
    sometimes it takes a bit to configure your subscription, i can see your subscription order is not yet completed, it is still in pending state.
    It might take 24 hours. We regret the inconvenience.

    Perhaps you have Adobe Acrobat, which can do everything Reader can do.

  • Help please. Iphone was Backed up yesterday. But today's didn't finish. Now, I have a file but it will not allow a restore from said file. And yesterday's is gone. What the hello do I do?

    Help please. Iphone was Backed up yesterday. But today's backup didn't finish. Now, I have a file (marked today) but it will not allow a restore from said file. And yesterday's is gone. What the hello do I do? IS there anyway to get my sms back post restore/update?

    The problem is absolutely not Reader. The problem is that FireFox has stepped in front of Reader and handles all the PDF stuff - wrongly in your case. FireFox is DESIGNED to take over PDF files. But it is not capable of doing IRS forms!
    To start with go back to IE for these forms. When you save them to disk DO NOT DOUBLE CLICK ON THEM until this is fixed. Just open the in the normal way - start Adobe Reader and use Open from the File menu.

  • I purchased the Adobe PDF Pack but it won't allow me to convert any files to pdf or combine multiple files to into 1 pdf form. It keeps saying "Error occurred while trying to access the file". WHY

    I purchased the Adobe PDF Pack for $7.50/month (or $89.99/yr) but it won't allow me to convert any files to pdf or combine multiple files into 1 pdf form. It keeps saying "An error occurred while trying to access the service". WHY is this happening & How can I fix it?

    Hi hpmg,
    It seems you are trying to access the service via Adobe Reader. Make sure you are signed in with your Adobe ID. Is Reader updated to the latest patch v 11.0.09?
    It might be possible that a firewall or antivirus might be breaking the connectivity from Reader to the server.
    Try accessing the service from the browser: https://cloud.acrobat.com/exportpdf  and check if that works for you.

  • Not able to convert word file to PDF using Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard

    Hi,
    I am not able to convert word file to PDF using Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard. When I try to convert, it starts the process and in between I am getting this prompt, as shown in figure below and the conversion process stops. The PDF is not created.
    Note: The filename 'Acr85.doc' in the above prompt keeps changing and is random.
    I tried clicking Yes, No and Cancel on the above prompt, but the conversion process just stops and PDF is not getting generated.
    I am able to create PDFs from web pages. No issues with that. Not working only with Word.
    Can someone help me with this.
    Thanks,

    In MSWord please changes the settings as "Adobe PDF" menu => "Change Conversion Settings" goto Tab Bookmark and clicks the option Convert Word Bookmarks. Now you convert the Doc to PDF you can achieve the Bookmark.
    Hope this help you

  • How to batch convert Word files to pdf

    How do I batch convert Word files to pdf using Automator

    Here is a drag/drop AppleScript solution that uses the command-line LibreOffice capability to convert MS Word (.doc, .docx) files into PDF. Drag/Drop a single file, or a folder of Word documents, and it will write the respective PDF back to the original file location. When it is done, an OS X Notification will slide out onto the Desktop and provide the count of processed files.
    Save this AppleScript as a Desktop application that remains open after running. If you ignore the latter, the notification will not show when it is done. Tested on Mavericks 10.9.5.
    property name_extension : {"doc", "docx"}
    global fileCnt
    on open of finderObjects
        set fileCnt to 0
        repeat with i in (finderObjects)
        if folder of (info for i) is true then
            tell application "Finder" to set temp to (entire contents of i)
            repeat with j in (temp)
                process_files(j)
            end repeat
        else
              process_files(i)
        end if
        end repeat
        display notification "Processed Files: " & fileCnt with title "Word2PDF" subtitle "Processing Complete"
    end open
    on process_files(fname)
         set cmd to "/Applications/LibreOffice.app/Contents/MacOS/soffice "
         set cmdArgs to "--headless --convert-to pdf:writer_pdf_Export --outdir "
         tell application "Finder"
              set nameExt to name extension of fname
              set outDir to do shell script "dirname " & POSIX path of (fname as alias)
              if name extension of fname is in name_extension then
                   try
                        do shell script cmd & cmdArgs & outDir & space & POSIX path of (fname as alias)
                        set fileCnt to fileCnt + 1

  • Acrobat XI Pro successfully installed, but it failed in converting word files into PDF, why?

    I just installed Adobe XI Pro through the download assistant, it looks the installation went well, but when I tried to convert word files into PDF (tried many times), it failed. Anyone has the same problems, any solutions?

    Please reply with more information - what your operating system is, do you have Office installed, and what exactly is happening. Is there an error message, does the application crash, and from where are you starting the conversion (using Word and PDFMaker, using Acrobat's Create button, or batch processing).

  • When I try to download something, the download box pops up and it will download, but will not allow me to open the file from the download box

    Whether pictures, or executable files, will download into the download box that pops up. When the file is done downloaded, when I attempt to either left click or right click on the file in the download box, it will not allow me to open that file

    Do you owe money from these previous purchases? If so, you will not be able to download anything further from the iTunes Store until you provide a payment method, either a credit card or a prepaid iTunes card, to clear that balance.
    Regards.

  • Firefox 5.0.1 will not allow me to upload any files. I receive an error message, though I know the files are vaild.

    Firefox 5.0.1 for Mac OS 10.6.8 is not allowing me to upload attachments. I get a pink band with the message "Files with errors will not be uploaded". When I click on the View Error link, it tells me "This file couldn't be added because it appears to be empty (0 bytes). " These are valid jpeg files that I have attached many times before, so I know there is no problem with the file. Also, Firefox has recently given me an error message about restarting in 32-bit mode to accommodate a plug-in. I have ticked the '32-bit" option in the Get Info window of the Firefox application.

    I have been unable to drag and drop large files, even onto the Desktop, let alone onto my NAS - I get the dragged files freezing in the middle of the screen or I get the 'unable to copy / file in use' error.
    Talking to Apple Support, they had me set up a new User, and then within that new account, the trouble went away. This pointed to the StartUp items being run in the original troublesome account,
    I have deleted all of my 3rd Party programs and then installed them one by one until the problem came back, and in my case (Macbook Air 5,2 running 10.10.3 Yosemite) I found it was DropBox causing the conflict. I have DropBox running in the Menu Bar (top of screen) and disabling sync (bottom left corner) stopped the file copy problem. Try disabling DropBox sync is file copying is failing?

  • What changed in iOS 7 that will not allow me to add audiobook files into a playlist?

    In iOS 6 on my phone I could create a playlist and had the option to add audiobook files.  This feature is gone in iOS 7.  How can I do this without using iTunes to create and manage the playlist?  This was a feature I used often in iOS 6 to manage my place in a long audiobook.

    After several attempts I cound that you can create a new playlist for audiobook that will NOT show up in your playlist but in your audiobooks sync page as a playlist.  I'm not a conspiracists but I think Samsung has bought apple and is trying to tick off their customer base to increase their note sales.  Good Marketing Strategy...I'm switching over... adios apple!

  • Converting Word files to pdf- Output is black and white

    Hello -
    I recently updated the Adobe 9.0 Reader on my computer and now when I try to convert a Word file with pictures and/or difffent colors of fonts to a pdf the output is ALL black and white.  I've seen some people here on the forum saying their printer caused the problem, but I have not changed printers and this same Xerox printer worked before.  Plus, I am not even printing the files yet - just looking at them in Adobe Reader - and they are in black and white.  This never happened before.
    Any ideas?  Need help!
