When I save a Word document as a PDF file and open it, some of the boxes around the text don't show

Hello,
I currently have Abobe Reader X (10.1.2) on Windows 7 and I need to save a Word document currently in A3 as a PDF file to print in A4. For some documents I have no problem printing and all of the text, images, boxes, lines etc. all show up no problem, except for 2 documents where there is a problem. The document fits onto the screen perfectly.
Please help! Thanks

Reader is unable to create PDF files. You must be using some other product, and therefore should post your question in that product's forums.

Make sure you are using Acrobat and not the free Adobe Reader
If Acrobat is installed, but Word does not include the PDF addons, then run a reinstall/repair of word

Hi mjmonck-
Which email provider are you using? There are different solutions possible for different providers. Yahoo is having trouble with attachments, outside of any Firefox issue. I've seen a Google user fix this by manually adding the mail URL to their ad block program- which mistakenly perceived the webmail page as an advertisement.
Hope this helps.

how to edit a converted Word Document from a PDF file

Hi Edit Converted Word Doc,
What's happening when you try to edit the file? Have you tried triple-clicking in the text block that you want to edit?
Please let us know what sort of trouble you're running into. It would also be helpful to know how the PDF file was created, and what version of Word you're using.
Best,
Sara

When I save my word doc as a pdf, I'm getting all kinds of grey lines. Any suggestions?

I'm creating a flyer in word, using photos and text boxes. All kinds of crazy grey lines show up when I save it as a pdf.
Would be grateful for any suggestions as to what I can do to correct this.

Hi Stacy
I have Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro. The odd thing is, the version I had prior to this (and unfortunately I don't remember what it was) didn't do this.
Thanks so much for responding to my question.

How can I save a Word document as a PDF whilst retaining hyperlinks?

I know that Word can't do it (not on Mac anyway).
What other software (ideally free) can do it though?

You're right - it doesn't work on a Mac: not even with Adobe Acrobat Pro.
That's why I have to use Word for Windows running under Parallels. I'm now running Windows Pro 64-bit and Adobe Acrobat Pro XI and hyperlinks are fuly functional using the Windows version. It's not a bug, it's just that Adobe hasn't invested much effort into support Acrobat/Word on a Mac, I suppose.
If you're willing to make the investment in Windows, Office 2013 (which I'm now using) and Acrobat Pro XI, you can easily save PDF files with active hyperlinks. I notice that "AussieDJ" says that it works in Pages - although I have Pages, I've not tried it as Pages is a joke as far as I'm concerned.
Just one more thing you can accomplish on a Windows machine that you can't do on a Mac...
