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

SAP BO LiveOffice support to Office 2013

Hi all,
I need to know if there's a version of LiveOffice supporting Office 2013.
I tried to install LiveOffice 4.1 SP 2 but it return the following error.
It asks for an Office patch of the old version "Office 2003".
Thanks in advance.

UE-V support for Office 2013?

Hi
Can we expect a UE-V template for Office 2013 from Microsoft?

There are some Office 2013 UE-V settings templates here that are worth testing: http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/site/search?f%5B0%5D.Type=RootCategory&f%5B0%5D.Value=UE-V&f%5B0%5D.Text=UE-V

? Office 2013 to support Excel 2003 (XLS) spreadsheets containing VBA CommandBars references

Thanks in advance for reading this and offering any wisdom you have! I am not an expert in any of the following, so apologies if off base.
The basic problem is: I need to use Excel 2013 to support Excel 2003 (XLS) spreadsheets containing VBA 'CommandBars' references which don't seem to work in Excel 2013. Details below.
Most of our users are still using older desktop windows PCs and Office 2003! We are beginning to upgrade to laptops running Windows 8.1 with Office 2013. Of course, we IT technical people are using the new laptops first. These new laptops are
64 bit.
Years ago, someone did a lot of development with spreadsheets here in Excel 2003 file formats that automates many activities and routines. Now we with the new laptops are having to support this development using new machines.
There is a basic compatibility issue that appears when first opening these Excel 2003 files that have VBA code that I'll detail below; I seem able to get by that problem.
The current problem appears to be that the existing Excel 2003 VBA code has many references to: "For Each bar In Application.CommandBars". As I've learned, the Application.CommandBars VBA functionality is focused on older MS Office versions' menu
commands, but "...Starting from Office 2007 the Fluent UI is used instead." In other words, because MS Office isn't menu-driven beginning with version 2007 (uses 'the ribbon'), it appears that these references to: "For Each bar In Application.CommandBars"
create a basic incompatibility to opening these spreadsheets in Office 2013.
For a spreadsheet, after I resolve the issue detailed below and save it, when I reopen it I encounter error "Compile error: can't find project or library."
For example, the following code snippet:
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
For Each bar In Application.CommandBars
bar.Enabled = False
Next
results in: "Compile error: can't find project or library."
(Sorry, can't include images yet, I am not a VERIFIED USER of this forum yet.)
I went into VBE's menu: Tools>References and check for anything marked MISSING, which I deselected. But I am still receiving this error.
I don't want to get into changing the code a lot to support both Excel 2003 and 2013 (I am no VBA expert, just a dabbler).
And Microsoft officially says that Office 2003 is incompatible with Windows 8 although Application.CommandBars seem to be somewhat supported in Office 2013 .
Are you aware of a quick VBA workaround to get by this?
•I could comment out the validations, commands for: "For Each bar In Application.CommandBars" but then the spreadsheet code probably won't work for users using Office 2003.
Alternatives would be:
•Installing Office 2003 on my Win 8.1 64 bit laptop anyway, in spite of MS's saying incompatible, since this thread discusses at least one person has been able to use Office 2003
•Keeping one older PC with Office 2003 on it for us to support the old Office 2003 code until everyone upgrades their systems
Thanks
Basic compatibility issue that seems solvable:
Opening these spreadsheets displays this error:
Compile error:
The code in this project must be updated for use on 64-bit systems.
Please review and update Declare statements and then mark them with the PtrSafe attribute.
This seems resolvable by going into the VBA code and just adding element 'PtrSafe' where functions are declared; in other words, replacing VBA code "Declare Function" with "Declare PtrSafe Function" seems to get by this.

Microsoft office 2013 support WOW 5 phone calls so far

I have posted this to the Microsoft community and thought I would also post it in the forums
posted Thursday April 9 2015
I look after multiple locations across Ontario for a company each their own separate entity so volume licencing is not applicable.
The situation is that I have installed 17 copies of office 2013 and registered the product keys with my Microsoft account, and when I log into the Microsoft account the product keys I find on the site don't correspond to any of the physical
product key card serial numbers I have. talked to Microsoft support twice with no solution. was told by 1 person I should have a Microsoft account for each install. I will be doing 100 installs eventually. the second person told
me I didn't matter what download I selected from my Microsoft account as it would automatically prompt me for a product key. it didn't. spent 4 hours on phone so far and received 1 email, all with canned answers which don't even correspond to the
problem
posted update April 10th 2015
I have 17 keys registered to the 1 account. I did a test this morning. I installed a brand new copy of office 2013 right out of the box to a computer and registered it to a new Microsoft account with only 1 copy of office registered to that account.
I log into the new Microsoft account this morning and the product key online associated with the account isn't the same as the product key I inputted yesterday from the key card.
Anyone have any ideas about this
Update
Installed second brand new copy from the same Microsoft account to a different computer and it said it was already registered. had to manual registration. requested a call back from Microsoft support and got the call and explained the situation
and the person couldn't help me but thought installation and licencing could and was transferred. explained 90% of the situation before I was disconnected. In case you are wondering I am being polite on the phone as I realize the people I
am talking to are not the cause of the issue
I need a call from someone higher up in support for office 2013 and cant seem to do this. if I call customer support it is really only a facilitator which pushes me off to a support desk or something called up-and-running and none of them
even acknowledge the issue of the product key mismatches
Any help would be appreciated as the support from Microsoft on this has been useless

For problems with MS Office for Mac and other 3rd party apps, its best to go to the forums run by the people who make them, it really doesn't have anything to do with Apple. For MS this is :
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac/forum/macword
MS Word for Mac OS X has never supported any RTL or Indic script, even after 14 years. Other apps that work ok for most users are Mellel, Pages 5, TextEdit, Nisus Writer, and LibreOffice.
If your problem is focussed on editing a complex RTL doc created by Windows Word, then the best fix may be to run Windows on your Mac and work within Office for Windows.

How do I activate Office 2013 that I have deployed using ODT and App-V onto a Remote Desktop Server?

I am setting up a demo Server 2012 R2 environment (1 DC server, 2 RDSH servers, 1 App-V server).
I have created an Office 2013 volume license App-V package using the latest Office Deployment Toolkit. I have deployed the App-V package to an RDS server and it all works fine. However, I am unable to activate Office 2013 using the MSDN Office 2013 retail
key because it tells me the product key is invalid for this version of Office. I've looked at the alternative of using the App-V Sequencer to create the Office 2013 package, but from what I've read this is not a Microsoft supported method.
Is there any way that I can activate Office 2013 (volume license on RDS) using the method I've outlined above, or is there any way of using the Office2013 download from MSDN such that it can be packaged by the ODT (or App-V Sequencer) for successful deployment
using App-V and activation using the retail Office 2013 product key on MSDN?

True, VL channel media can't be activated with MSDN Retail pkeys (that's what I was trying to get you to understand, I figured you would be attempting that, as so many people do :(
I've not attempted your scenario myself.
It sounds like you aren't following the supported scenarios as (poorly) described by MS;
The way I read their guide, for an RDS scenario, you must use a VL key [either MAK or KMS] (since a subscription product+key can't be used on RDS):
i.e.: <Product ID="ProPlusVolume">
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2772509
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2915745
http://technet.microsoft.com/library/dn481351.aspxhttp://blogs.technet.com/b/office_resource_kit/archive/2013/12/02/announcing-app-v-5-0-sp2-support-for-office-2013-volume-licensing-editions.aspx
So, that all means that for RDS, you can't use anything other than VL "product" (in
the form of an ODT-generated output) with a VL pkey. So, for your RDS demo setup, you need to use real product and real pkeys.

App-V Office 2013 x64 with local x86 version

Hi,
we have deployed Office 2013 x86 VL Version on all our machines locally (MSI Install). Since App-V 5 SP2 now supports virtualising Office 2013 VLs we would like to run a virtualised Version of Office 2013 x64 VL (especially Excel) alongside the locally installed
x86 Version. Is this possible?
Thanks!

There won't be any limitations for the virtualized Excel's core features, but interaction with other applications (native Office, OS, other apps) may be limited as, well, a virtualized application is sort-of isolated to a certain extent. Namely it
may happen that you loos the tight integration between Office apps based on OLE objects.
(Copy & Paste an Excel spreadsheet into Word/Powerpoint - Double-click on the Word-Embedded Excel and get all your Excel menus and options back).
'Simple' stuff (saving and loading files, copying simple data through clipboard) all will work. Users potentially won't be able to add new Excel Plugins and it might even be diffcult to do so for you.
If the use-cases allows that you could consider running Excel_x64 on remote machines (VDI, RemoteDesktopServer).

Add-in support on Office 365 click-to-run installed and Office 365 App-V installed

Hi,
We have to make a decision on deploying Office 365 via on premise click-to-run, with the Office Deployment tool, or via App-V. But the way add-ins are supported on Office 365 / Office 2013 on App-V 5.0 SP2 is not clear to me.
Some Technet sites mention that for add-in support on an App-V based office, the add-ins should be sequenced and put together in a connection group with the Office App-V package (created by the Office Deployment tool)
On
http://blogs.technet.com/b/office_resource_kit/archive/2013/12/02/announcing-app-v-5-0-sp2-support-for-office-2013-volume-licensing-editions.aspx however, I read in the table “Full-featured Office with integration with other applications,
add-ins, and Windows”
When testing with third party applications and Visual Studio installed in a classical installer way, the add-ins are added to the App-V installed Office, but we are sometimes experiencing error messages in word / excel with the add-ins
enabled.
Should add-ins be sequenced to be used on an App-V based Office? Or in other words, is there a difference in add-in support between the click-to-run version and the App-V version of Office for non-virtualized add-ins?

Hi,
There is a new feature for Office 365 Pro Plus, it allow administrators the ability to exclude App element. We need to use Office 2013 Click-to-Run (Build 15.0.4615.1001) and logon as administrator.

Then, we'd better follow this link and repeat the steps one by one:

Different margins in PDF after upgrade to Office 2013

Hi,
I moved from Windows XP and Office 2000 to Windows 7 and Office 2013. In both cases I used Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro (Adobe printer) for creation of PDF from Excel.
Why are PDF files created from Excel 2013 with different margins in comparission with Excel 2000? On preview they looks same on both computers but after printing via same Adobe printer (AA 9 pro) output is slightly different.
Thank you for explanation

One issue might be due to the Acrobat 9.x product family not being coded for support of Office 2013.
As well Acrobat 9's support for Windows 7 was (I've thought) somewhat dicey.
Understandable as the Acrobat 9.x product family was headed for end of life/support when Win 7 came out.
As of June 2013 the Acrobat 9.x product family passed into end of life / end of support.
So, if you are in a contemporary OS and MS Office suite you may want to consider moving into Acrobat XI.
Be well...

Does Excel-Addin is supported by Excel 2013

Hello All,
We are in processing of upgrading the versions of Microsoft office from 2010 to 2013 for our users who are using Essbase Excel add-in. In 2010 the Excel Add-in is supported and working but my question is will it works for Excel 2013 also. Anyone installed and checked it. Please help me on this.
Regards,
naveen

I have not seen any updates to say it is supported, it looks like only Smart View 11.1.2.5 is supported with Office 2013 - https://blogs.oracle.com/proactivesupportEPM/entry/epm_obiee_certification_with_ms

Is ms office 2013 supported for report generation? Error 41106

Hi
I have a copy of LV full development suite with the Excel and Word report generation toolkit added.
I have recently changed to using Office 365 that includes offline versions of Excel and Word from Office '13.
When using the report generation toolkit, I get an error 41106.
I have reinstalled the toolkit - no effect.
I sort of assume therefore that office 2013 is not supported?
Any hints, tips, patches or workarounds please.

I've seen some issues when I upgraded to Office 2010. Note that it is possible that the route cause of your problem is totally different but in my case there was some ActiveX properties or Methods call that have been changed. I solved this issue by navigating to the property/method that caused the error, clicked on it and reselected the same property/method. You could probably find some older post that discuss that. Hope this help.

"Combine supported files in Acrobat" right-click funtion is slow or locks up system since upgrade to Office 2013

I have several admins who have for years combined quantities of large Word documents into a single PDF by highlighting them, right-clicking, and selecting "Combine supported files in Acrobat." Until recently, they were all using Office 2010 Pro Plus and a variety of versions of Acrobat - Standard 9, Professional 9, Standard 10. They said it was quick and painless. We've recently deployed Office 2013 Pro Plus, and they are complaining that doing the same thing they've always done is either completing but yeilding only the first document in the resulting PDF or rendering their systems unresponsive. I have reproduced their issues and have found some evidence online of Possible incompatibilities between Office programs and the Adobe Acrobat PDFMaker Office COM Addin add-in, however Adobe's list of Compatible web browsers and PDFMaker applications indicates that Office 2013 supports PDFMaker versions as old as Acrobat 6, and we are not that outdated. Any suggestions? This is crippling their productivity.
Thanks!
Carrie

Only the updated Acrobat XI supports Office 2013. The updates are necessary to address the changes to OFFICE introduced after Acrobat XI was released (OFFICE 2013 is more recent than the original AA XI release). No other versions of Acrobat can be used with OFFICE 2013 other than printing to the Adobe PDF printer.

Office 2013 (Mainly Outlook) Ribbon Menu Display Error

So i have created a MDT System Image for deploying Windows across our Business we are currently using Windows 8.1 32/64Bit Office 2013 SP1 now i have recently updated the image simply to install the latest load of Windows Updates so we are not installing
a load of updates when imaging a machine. a lot of our users are reporting issues in Office mainly Outlook but Word has the issue also, the Ribbon bar has Pixelated Display issues and one would have to close he application and re-open to resolve.
Now i have uploaded two screenshots to my box account and shared the images below as you can see from the screenshots it looks to be a display issue but it is only the Office Applications that fall victim, once you change to something else it dissapears
but this is happening a few times a day now. i have blanked out with black boxes the secure information from our relevant party's they are separate to the issue.
https://app.box.com/s/fd1e8vw5gr7hbtxo42pb

Hi,
I would suggest you start Outlook in Safe Mode to determine if it's 3rd-party add-ins related:
Press Win + R, type "outlook.exe /safe" in the blank box, press Enter.
If there is no such problem in safe mode, disable suspicious add-ins to verify which add-ins caused this problem.
Since you have mentioned that you also meet this problem in Word, I doubt if it's related to a setting in Office:
In any Office application, such as Outlook, go to File -> Options -> Advanced -> Display -> Find "Disable hardware graphics acceleration", have you checked this box? If no, check it and click "OK" to save the setting.
This option is added since Office 2013, and it's global, once it's set in an Office application, it applies to others as well.
More information about hardware acceleration can be found in this article below:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/cc26ac52-5c94-468e-ac34-35c9dcc5b422/hardware-graphics-acceleration?forum=outlook
We can also consider this:
On the Desktop, right click on This PC(or Computer) icon, select
Properties, then Advanced system settings on the left side, under
Advanced tab, click on the Settings button for
Performance.
Now we see this:
Uncheck the box for Animate controls and elements inside windows, click
OK button.
I hope the information can be helpful.
Thanks,
Melon Chen
