Why does choosing "convert to PDF" from a Word Doc's context menu bring up two Save As dialog boxes?

I have a user that every time she chooses "Convert to PDF" from the context menu on a MS Word document she gets a Save As box, enters the name and location, clicks Save. Then Word starts and it brings up another Save As box and makes her enter the name and save location AGAIN. It does then create the PDF, but it is very annoying to her as she makes lots of PDFs for our board of directors (she is our CEO). I have tried it on other PCs that have a similar setup, but none have done this. They all just run the converter window after one dialog box. Please HELP

Does your user have custom add-ons besides the Acrobat PDFMaker add-on?  If so, try disabling the other add-ons as a test to see if you get the same results.
Does your user have a custom template?  Try moving it out and using the standard MS Word template as test?
Did your user have a previous installation of Adobe Acrobat??  If so, check the Add-ons to see if an older version is still registered with MS Word.

    Hi conversionnewbie,
    Are you able to select the text in Word by triple-clicking inside the text box? (Sometimes text selections can be tricky in converted files.) If you can't select the text, then I'm guessing that the PDF was created from a scanned file (so the text becomes images). Make sure that OCR is enabled when you convert the file to Word. OCR is enabled by default in the ExportPDF web interface, but can be disabled in Adobe Reader. If you're converting to Word from within Adobe Reader, make sure that OCR is enabled and that the correct language is selected:
    Please let us know that works for you!

  • Font changes when i try to create a pdf from a word doc

    I am trying to create a pdf from a word doc. I have tried multiple times and each time i do the font i used in the word doc gets changed on the pdf

    This seems to be a common problem... this is not the first time I have seen this. Unless it is a general system font, such as Arial, then it seems not to convert too well.
    So, if it doesn't matter what font, then just change the font.
    Hopefully, Adobe fixes this in the next year. xD
    Good luck

  • Creating a pdf from a word doc and the image and footer will not show

    I am trying to create a pdf from a word doc that has an image and footer. Neither will show in the pdf. Also getting this message "Adobe Acrobat Updater has not been able to check for updates recently. Check online to see if solutions are available from the Adobe website." My Cloud says it is updated.

    What was the Original?
    If it was from Word, chances are the top and bottom Margins were set too narrow. (should not be less than .5 inches even more safety 1" would be better). As for graphics. Check in Word preferences (may be called different in a windows machine) make sure in view and Print settings "Graphics" is checked (show Graphics and Print Graphics).

  • Why cant i convert a pdf form to word that has xfa

    trying to convert a pdf document to Word but no matter which format I try to export to I get the message that PDF files containing XFA forms cannot be saved to th3e specific format.  I need to fill out this form and I do not need to save it.

    Hi sallyandbobh,
    XFA form can't be converted to word document that has xfa structure which is different that a normal PDF document.
    You may try to print the same document using the PDF printer if you have Acrobat installed.
    Then you can convert that document to word reason being that will get flattened.

  • I am converting a PDF to a Word Doc and it is not converting our logo or any handwritten notes to the new document

    I am trying to convert a PDF to a Word Document.  I have only recently started using this item so I am not sure what I am doing wrong.  When the PDF document is converted to the Word doc it is not converting any symbols, logos or handwritten items.  For example I have a sign letter of intent with a signature that I am trying to convert from a PDF to a word document and the signature does not appear on the word doc. 

    Hi judyf73891847,
    I don't think you're doing anything wrong. I'm not surprised that ExportPDF is having a hard time converting handwriting. One option is to disable OCR as described in this document: How to disable Optical Character Recognition (O... | Adobe Community. Then, ExportPDF won't try to convert those elements into editable text. The only drawback to that is that you won't be able to edit those items when you open the converted document in Word.

  • Why do Certain fonts change when I convert to PDF from Microsoft word?  They start out 60s chic and end up as a standard font.

    Why do some fonts change when converted from Microsoft word to PDF?  It starts out as 60s chic and changes to standard font.

    Related to the question, I suspect you have licensed fonts that cannot be embedded. Thus, the PDF is using what it is finding to be an equivalent as well as it can guess. Did you check the font list in the PDF?

  • Acrobat X Pro does not print Excel charts from 2010 Word doc to PDF correctly

    Hi,
    I am trying to create a PDF from Word 2010 using Adobe Acrobat X and preserve hyperlinks but when I go through the PDF maker toolbar, the Excel charts in the Word file do not print correctly. They come up as large white boxes with a small grey arrow icon in the lower-right corner (looks like a "play" button). Does anyone know why this is and if there's a solution to this problem? Is there an update or a fix? I have a lot of Excel charts in the Word file...
    Thanks in adavance,

    Hello,
    i am having exactly the same issue with Acrobat X Pro - with linked Excel 2010 tables in Word 2010.
    Has there been a resolution to this eissue - it is potentially very time consuming to work around this issue for me.
    I would post my files but I don't know how to attach them to the thread - only my second post .
    Cheers,
    slobbering_dog
    This is the Word File - the table is an Excel 2010 spreadsheet linked (via Paste Special >Link) .
    This is the resultant PDF file:
    Thanks in advance - again !!

  • Having issues created a .pdf from a Word .doc.

    I tried converting a Word doc today, and was given the error "Missing PDF file maker. Do you want to run this in repair mode?  I click yes, it scans (for several minutes) then no document.  A document icon appears on the opening page, yet when you click on it, it says: ERROR – this document cannot be found."
    I tried two other documents I scanned into PDF files – both from excel sheets – no problem. Since this was installed I haven't had any issues until recently. I cannot think of anything that has changed since then.
    Is it possible this is a problem with Word?

    Well I'm having the same issue. Right now I have a very simple, one page Word doc I want to PDF before emailing. I hit print, chose PDF, picked where I wanted to save file, then . . . Adobe starts to open Word - but only the "title page" comes up and hangs for . . . ever. Adobe says "Please wait, reading PDF file . . . ".
    When I open Task Manager - it shows both Word and Adobe PDF as running.
    I checked for updates. I can't think of what to do next?
    I can chose Adobe PDF in my print menu, I have  new laptop running Windows 7 and Microsoft Home Premiere 2010.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm doing a 'favor' for my mother's friend, now both of them are calling wondering what is taking me so long : }
