Unidentified error when combining word documents on Acrobat 8 standard

One of our users is currently running Office 2007 and Acrobat 8 Standard. Whenever she tries to combine multiple word files into one PDF, each file in the list will say "Error (file skipped)". The Status will say "PDF conversion process failed, please correct the error and retry." Afterwards I get an error of "No PDF file was created because Acrobat encountered an unidentified error." Printing to the PDF printer from Word works just fine, however this problem only seems to occur when combining word files. I have logged onto the PC as a network administrator and everything works correctly. Any Ideas?
Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

It may be as simple as updating Acrobat. I think you needed AA8.1.3 to work with OFFICE 2007. Try to use the create PDF selection under the Acrobat menu in WORD (this is PDF Maker) and see if you can create a PDF. If there is no Acrobat menu, then PDF Maker is not active in WORD and is the basic problem you are having. PDF Maker has to be working for the Acrobat function you are using to be useful.

Error when importing Word document

I am having a problem importing a Word document. This is the
first time I have experienced the problem.
Partway through the import (it appears to be attempting to
open the Word document) I get a message:
A file error has occurred.
Try one or more of the following:
*Check the disk drive to make sure the disk is properly
inserted
*Check the disk or the disk drive to make sure there is not a
hardware problem
*Check the network connections.
Things I have tried:
1. Reboot of the machine that has both RoboDemo (V5) and the
Word document.
2. Renaming the Word document to something with a shorter
name.
3. Taking out large sections of the document and then
retrying. Repeat until the document is empty.
I have searched this forum as well as the general web for any
information. Help! I'm on a tight deadline and I just can't kill
any more time screwing around with this.
Thanks in advance,
Sarah-Jane
PS. I would be willing to send/attach the document if it
would help someone.

I started the import just before going to bed last night and
it was still running when I killed it this morning. It did not
error with the message you got but I did get a Microsoft Word
message:
The server application, source file, or item cannot be found.
Make sure the application is properly installed.
The import was stuck on the graphics under Metadata Format. I
don't know if the callouts you had created in Word were the cause
but you cannot have those in RoboHelp HTML which is going to give
you a problem as the document is heavy on them.
Back to the import. Is there something in your document that
is pointing to a server? Is the template on a server or is your
normal template on a server instead of being local?
Also I notice you said RoboDemo. Did you mean that?

OLE error when opening word document

Hi,
I have a form that allows update of word documents stored in blob fields in the database.
The form works fine. except that if I open and update a document that has a footer and then save the document back into the database without the footer, it is no longer possible to open it.
Can anyone help?
Sometimes I get FRM 40922 : An OLE error occurred 0x80004005
Otherwise when I click on the icon nothing happens.
Thank you
Michael

I can avoid this problem by leaving the footer and returning to the main document view before saving the document.

Error when importing Word documents

Hallo
I'm using RoboHelp 8 from the Technical Communication Suite.
When I try to import a doc/docx file for my HTML help I get the message: 'The Import Word Document Wizard cannot locate a supported version of Microsoft Word. Please install Microsoft Word 2000 or newer.'
Actually I have Microsoft Word 2010 installed in its default path.
Do I have to set some particular options? Some days ago I had my PC replaced with a new one and I had to reinstall all of my programs. I think I've missed some settings.
Thank you

Strange
I was working with Office 2010 and RH8 almost without problems with my old PC. Maybe the colleagues from our EDP department have installed a different version of MS Word (a newer service pack?).
I'll try to modify the registry as suggested in http://forums.adobe.com/message/2991411
thank you

Error when compiling Word documents from OPM

When I try to compile a document from OPM (as opposed to from the Word OPM toolbar), OPM raises a dialog box with the title Compilation Error. It says, "Oracle Policy Modeling was unable to compile the document as an error occurred with Microsoft Word. This file could not be found." The Word file nonetheless opens, but does not compile. This makes it very laborious to compile my project, which has numerous rule documents.
Could the problem have something to do with the OPM Word template?
I'm using OPM 10.4.3 and Word 2010 on Windows 7 Enterprise.
Thanks for your help.

Did you recently migrate from Word 2007 to Word 2010? Did this issue start occurring after you changed versions of Word? If yes, did you update the templates in the project?
See OPM 10.4.4 User Guide article Update Oracle Policy Modeling Templates: http://docs.oracle.com/html/E48373_01/toc.htm#Projects and files/Update_OPM_templates.htm (for the 10.4.3 equivalent article search the phrase "update templates" in your local copy of the OPM 10.4.3 User Guide)

Word cannot complete the save due to a file permission error when resaving Word document.

So I have to rename it to be able to save the document. This happnes once in a while. What's the reason? And what should be done? (From "Word" to "error" is the error message in the title)

Hi,
What Office version are you using?
Please try to start Microsoft Word in Safe Mode if it helps, following steps for Word 2010, the steps for Word 2007 are similar:
Click Start, point to All Programs, and then point to
Microsoft Office.
Press and hold the CTRL key, and then click the Microsoft Word 2010.
If the problem does not occur in the safe mode, this issue might be related to some third-party add-ins in the Office program, we can try to disable them. Normally, you could do the following to disable the conflict add-ins in your Word program:
Click File menu, click Options >
Add-ins, click Go button in the Manage: COM Add-ins.
Check if there has any add-ins, clear the checkbox to disable them.
Close the Microsoft Word and restart it.
Add one check back each time to the list of Add-In, restart Microsoft Word, and repeat the above procedure. Once the issue reappears again, we can determine which add-in causes this problem and then disable it.
- You may also check Save Folder and Word Default Save Folder permission, make sure user account has Full Control and Modify permission.
Best regards.

Error when combining Visio 2010 files in Acrobat X Pro

Getting the error message No PDF was created because Acrobat encountered an unidentified error when i try to combine Visio 2010 files into one PDF with Acrobat X Pro. Ive done this many many times before and it worked fine. It also works fine on another PC in the office with the same software installed on it. It just decided one day to quit working. Ive tried to reinstall both programs without success. I dont have this issue with any other type of file just Visio 2010 files. I can go into Visio and convert the file there and then combine it with other files after it has been converted as a seperate PDF file, but that is alot more cumbersome than just drag drop and combine. How can I fix this?

Did you updates X or have 10.0.0? The updates are required for use with OFFICE 2010.

Hi Waqas
Thanks for your help with this. I had a look at both posts, the URL works fine from the WAC server and I am not using a System account to test docs.
Also, this is a production site that is accessible over the Internet, so we are using https therefore the WOPIZone is external-https.
Issue #3 in the above blog link does not reflect the same error I see on my servers.
I also had a look at the information in this link: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff431687.aspx#oauth
Problem: You receive a "Sorry, there was a problem and we can't open this document" error when you try to view an Office document in Office Web Apps.
If you added domains to the Allow List by using the
New-OfficeWebAppsHost cmdlet, make sure you’re accessing Office Web Apps from a host domain that’s in the Allow List. To view the host domains in the Allow List, on the Office Web Apps Server open the Windows PowerShell prompt as an administrator and run
the Get-OfficeWebAppsHost cmdlet. To add a domain to the Allow List, use the
New-OfficeWebAppsHost cmdlet.
I have not added any domains to the Allow list so this did not help either. Should I add the domain?
Any further help with this is much appreciated.
Thanks again.

Suddenly unable to combine word documents

Hi,
I've been using Adobe Acrobat X every quarter to prepare a PDF for a board meeting, combining Word Documents and PDFs.
It's always worked fine, but all of a sudden I can't combine Word anymore.
The error message that I receive is "Please remove problem files from the list or choose the Portfolio option"
When I try the Portfolio option, the error message that I receive is

Hi,
I'm using Microsoft 2010 on Windows 7.
The thing is I haven't updated my OS or Office since the last time I used Adobe Acrobat Pro when I was still able to combine Word & PDF, so I can't understand why I've suddenly lost this functionality.
Thanks alot for your help

File conversion error when combining files

Hello,
I am using Adobe Create to combine several files (both word and pdf) into a single pdf document. I have done this several times in the past with no problems. However today it won't allow me to combine any documents which are already in pdf format. The system generates an error for each of these documents as: "Conversion Failed". I am clearly not trying to convert them, but rather to combine them... Any ideas?

Hi gina_hall_7848,
If you're combining both Word and PDF files into PDF, there is some conversion happening (with the Word docs, as they're converted into the combined PDF file). If you're getting the error when combining only PDF files--that's another story. It could be that one or more of the files that you're combining isn't in a supported format, or that Adobe PDF Pack is timing out before it can complete the conversion.
Does the error occur regardless of what files you try to combine?
Best,
Sara

Create PDF from a Word document within Acrobat

Hi!
I am having trouble to create a PDF from a Word document within Acrobat itself, and not by using PDF Maker in Word. When I try to create a PDF using Acrobat, it gives me the choice to choose any Office format file, but Word format doesn't appear. I can convert from an Excel document or a PowerPoint document, but not from a Word document, even if Word 2010 is installed and works perferctly. Why?
I know I can make a PDF in Word itself by printing to the Adobe PDF printer or by using PDF Maker, but I want to resolve the issue in Acrobat that prevents me to select a Word document in the Create PDF dialog window. You can see the dialog box in the screenshot attached.
Any help would be appreciated.
I am using Acrobat X version 10.1.8 on Windows 7 Home Premium and I have Office 2010 installed (with Word 2010).

Thanks for your reply. PDF Maker works in all of my Office applications. However, in Acrobat, the file formats available for me to create PDF from figure all the Office file formats except the one for Word. This is not normal. At my school, Acrobat X and Office 2007 are installed, and I can use there both PDF Maker in Word and creating PDF from Word document within Acrobat.
So I think maybe there's a key in my Windows registry that is not set correctly? or something like that. I repaired the installation of Office 2010, and I did so for Acrobat X too, but it doesn't help. Any idea of how I can resolve that?

I did orriginally have MySql set up on my pc and had done some test databases but i have deleted everything now even MySql but i still get this error so i am missing something. Does anyone know why or how can i stop it defaulting locally. Thanks

I am trying to convert a PDF to a Word document using Acrobat Pro 9 but am unable to find "Content to edit" under tools. Do I need a newer version?

I am trying to convert a PDF to a Word document using Acrobat Pro 9 but am unable to find "Content to edit" under tools. Do I need a newer version?

Acrobat 9 Pro (not Standard) can export ("convert") PDF to Word, RTF, or other text formats.
Click-path: File - Export
Take your pick.
With install of Acrobat 9 the Help PDF is installed also.
From the this PDF's Bookmarks expand Chapter 5's bookmark and select "Convert PDFs to Word".
Be well...
