Word 2008 document display window problem

I have a macbook air, and having trouble with my 2008 word program. when I open a document (or new document) it will only open in a small window and will not allow me to make it larger. it just started doing this randomly.

2008 is now a long time ago in terms of technology. There have been two major releases of Microsoft Word for Mac since then: Microsoft Office for Mac 2011 and Microsoft Office 365.
I don't know for sure whether Office for Mac 2008 runs on Mavericks, but I suspect this may be your issue.

Acrobat 9 Pro & Word 2008 doc with sections problem

I have recently switched from Windows to a MacBook Pro and am just now using Word 2008 & Acrobat 9 Pro for the Mac. I have an 11-page Word doc (created with Word XP before the change) that has several sections in it (to change page orientation). When I send that doc to the Acrobat PDF virtual printer, it creates several files corresponding to the sections in Word, but omits the first section completely. This never happened with Word XP and Acrobat 7.Is there something I missed in setting up Acrobat? Is this common with the Mac version of Acrobat?
Thanks. John.

This is a long standing issue between Acrobat (Adobe/Apple/Microsoft). Both Microsoft and Adobe Blame on Apple. But the problem has been around since Mac OS 6 days and acrobat 2-3. Back then Mac didn't even you the Abobe PDF engine for visual and printing as in OSX. Adobe refuses to fix the problem because they are not as big a fish as Microsoft. Microsft if you don't fix a problem for them it means the death of your Company. Microsoft has included a work around in 2008 . That is go to Save as... and choose PDF.
It will save as one document, Unless there is a switch in Page orientation. Microsoft both on Bulletin Boards (Forums) and on website say that the code is identical for Mac and PC version except for VBA missing, key layouts and inteface changes. But MS refuses to allow Adobe a Look at their Page and section Break codes so they can cure it.
Try saving as PDF in Word 2008 make sure version ia 12.2.1. Next see if all pieces are there.
In Acrobat and choose insert pages then choose the next section. and add to end. go to end and repeat with next section, and repeat, with next section until all the pieces are together. I wish the problem was fixed it been going on since the day Acrobat came on the scene. And the aprties are so afraid and scecretive they won't work together to fix the problem. But that business these days everyone is out for themselves, and don't care who get affected in the process.

Inserting date & time in Word 2008 document

I'm trying to create simple AppleScript and I'm hoping someone on here can help me.
I work in Word 2008 for Mac and want to create a script that simply inserts the phrase "Left message(space)" plus the date and time whenever I run the script. I'd also prefer that the phrase be in italics if possible. I use this because I often call people and leave them a message and I like to keep a record of when I call them.
I found this script online and modified it hoping it would meet my needs:
tell application "Microsoft Word"
tell selection
type text text "Left message "
create new field text range text object of selection field text {"DATE \\@ \"MM/d/yyyy\""}
end tell
end tell
The result is that when I run the script, I get something like this in my document:
Left message 6/10/2010
It's a good start, but there are two problems with this.
First, I would like to insert both the date AND the time.
Second, when it inserts the date, it makes it an "update automatically" date that updates to the current time every time I open the document. This obviously doesn't help me keep a record of when I made a call. What I would like is for it to just insert the current date and time without updating automatically.
Third, if possible, I would also like it to be in italics.
It would look something like this:
+Left message 6/10/10 5:29 PM+
I appreciate any advice people can give.

Second, when it inserts the date, it makes it an "update automatically" date that updates to the current time every time I open the document
Sure, that's because you specifically tell it to. Your script inserts a 'new field' which is analogous to Word's dynamic text objects (date, time, page number, etc.)
Instead, what you want to do is insert an actual string of characters - sure, to you and I that string of characters might look like a date and time, but to Word it's nothing more than a series of characters.
For that we can fall back on AppleScript's date features, specifically current date, like:
tell application "Microsoft Word"
tell selection
type text text "Left message " & (current date as text)
end tell
end tell
Note that current date as text returns a rather verbose form of the date. If that's too much for you there are alternate options, such as:
short date string of (current date) & space & time string of (current date)
which will look more like: "6/10/10 3:26:50 PM"
But there is also a myriad of other ways (with seconds, without seconds, 12/24 hr, etc.) depending on what you want.
Third, if possible, I would also like it to be in italics.
I'll have to look at that one, unless someone else beats me to it.

Saving MS Word 2010 documents in Windows 8.1

I am trying to save a document and every time I try, the application just stalls.
The steps I follow are:
Click File
Click Save As
A little circle appears, like the hourglass in previous versions (the good ones...) of Windows
I wait ...and wait...and wait...
In the end I use Task Manager to close the MS Word 2010 application.
When it restarts my documents appear in the Document Recovery pane.
I have tried shutting the computer down and restarting, even turning the machine completely off. It makes no difference.
I am running Windows 8.1, application MS Word 2010 on a HP Pavilion 23-a200a (3.70 GHz processor and 4.00GB RAM)

there is some OP report after Windows update Dec 2014 Word stop responding ( I cant confirm if this is also related to your issue) its because security update for Office maybe conflict with the active-x that you are installed
for manual procedure try to:
Close Word
Start Windows Explorer
Select your system drive (usually C:)
Use the Search box to search for *.exd
Delete all the files it finds.
Start Word again
Open that file and save it, and try open at Windows 7
This also will be solved by KB3025036
https://support.microsoft.com/kb/3025036/EN-US?wa=wsignin1.0

DLL display window problem

Hi!
I am trying to write a DLL with Labview that is called from a C++ application. However, when I run it, the window below opens up briefly and then disappears.
Can I hide the window? It is really annoying
Thank you.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi Nokia!
The loading window is most likely popping up because it cannot find this DLL dependency (NI_AALBase.lvlib) in its expected place. So the program searches for a while, and finds it at another location. My suggestions would be:
1. Install/reinstall the appropriate version af the LabVIEW Run-time Engine (same version as your LV).
2. If that doesn't work try manually adding NI_AALBase.lvlib to your DLL build, and make sure it is in the Always Included tab in the source file selection.
3. There is an .ini setting to suppress loading windows. You must open you labview.ini setting file (it is in the same directory as LabVIEW.exe) and add the line
ShowLoadProgressDialog=True
Though this might be ignored if a file or directory is not found by the loader.
What is your LabVIEW version? Do you run this DLL on the same PC where it was created? Please try these solutions and in that time I can check if there is anything version related in this problem.

Pdfmark code in MS Word 2008 doc doesn't seem to work properly to create Named Destination

Hi all,
I've been having trouble with creating Preview-compatible Named Destinations in Acrobat 9.x (see http://forums.adobe.com/thread/770470?tstart=0). Distiller, on the other hand, appears to create compatible Destinations, so as a last-ditch effort, I tried to go back to my original source file (Microsoft Word 2008 document) to use Distiller's pdfmark functionality, to see if maybe I could finally get a PDF with Preview-compatible Destinations.
Following instructions found elsewhere on this forum, I went into Word and inserted the following field into a test location in my document:
PRINT "[ /Dest /testdest /View [ /XYZ null null null ] /DEST pdfmark"
This field code is supposed to then cause a pdfmark to be inserted into the resulting PostScript and/or PDF files. Distiller is supposed to understand this and turn it into a Named Destination called "testdest." However, it doesn't seem to work - I don't see the pdfmark code in the PS file, and the PDF file doesn't have any Named Destinations in it.
I'm using Acrobat 9.x on Mac OS X 10.6.5, so I tried this two different ways:
1) Using the "Print to Adobe PDF" workflow (which replaced the "Adobe PDF Printer" from previous OS/Acrobat versions) - this automatically generates a PDF via (presumably) an API call to Distiller... and
2) Using the "Print to Postscript" workflow to generate a PS file, which I then ran through Adobe Distiller.
In neither case did I end up with a named destination in the PDF file, as I was supposed to. In case #2, even the Postscript file didn't have a pdfmark embedded in it. Thus, I'm assuming that perhaps this is particular issue may be a problem with MS Word 2008 rather than with Acrobat... but I'm hoping someone might have a clue as to how to fix it.
I welcome ideas on how to get Word 2008 to properly output pdfmark code, so that Distiller will pick it up and properly embed a Named Destination into the PDF...
Thanks in advance.
(If anyone has ideas about the Preview-compatible problem, linked above, that would also be great!)

You're suggesting that it was never fixed from Word 2004 to 2008? Possibly. I wonder if it's fixed in Word 2011? Anyone know? But is it really a Word problem, rather than a Distiller issue?
I appreciate your offer, though I do have access to Word on Windows (2003, I think), so I could try Distilling there... I only worry about formatting, since there are minor differences (e.g. font kerning, etc.) between Mac and Windows that are subtle, but sufficient to create formatting issues for very long documents (e.g. pushing figures onto the wrong pages, etc.). That would be a rather big problem.
The question remains whether this is an issue with Word or Distiller, though... and whether it's fixed in Distiller X and/or Word 2011.
Adobe, care to comment?
I'd really love to find a proper Mac solution, if one exists... it would be rather a slap to Mac users if a solution doesn't exist.

Word 2008 crashes when trying to save as PDF

Ever since upgrading to 10.6, I've been unable to save Word 2008 documents as pdf files from the print dialog. As soon as select "Save as PDF" from the PDF pull down, Word crashes. This doesn't happen in Excel or Powerpoint.
What's interesting is that if I select the Preview button (next to the PDF pull down in the print dialog), it opens the file using either Acrobat or Preview (depending on how I set things up), both of which let me save the file as a PDF.

I also have had a few instances where Save as PDF crashed Safari and Firefox. It doesn't happen on the first attempt, after trying to save a few documents in Safari it consistently crashed while using the Save as PDF, I thought it was a Safari problem so I switched to Firefox it allowed me to save a few a more documents and then it crashed.

Lion and Word 2008

I downloaded Lion and now when I open my Word 2008 documents, some of the formatting is all jumbled. Is there any way to fix this??

This is a part of the Resume feature in Lion. It can be completely turned off, like JoeyR posted. This will affect all your applications though, not just Word. Check out this guide if you feel like it:

Special Characters (holding key) has erratic behavior in Word 2008

I am trying to hunt down a mystery for a friend using her macbook air (Lion).
She is trying to add special characters (accents, etc.) to words in a MIcrosoft Word 2008 document.
Sometimes she can hold the key, and the special characters menu will pop up. Sometimes she will get the "old" repeating letter (eeeeeeeeeeeee). I tried to look at everything I could think of, but there seems to be no earthly reason why it does it sometimes but not all the time.
The only explanation I could guess at was that it was Word 2008 and Lion (and not Word 2011).
Does anyone know any fixes or explanations?

I suggest you post your question on Microsofts forums for Mac Office as it's their software you're having issues with:

T500 display adapter problem on Windows Server 2008

Hello,
I recently got T500 and if I understand this correctly, it comes with two display adapters,
- ATI Mobility HD Radeon 3650
- Intel Mobility 4 Series Express Chipset Family.
I installed Windows Server 2008.
Now my problem is that I can't install ATI Mobility HD Radeon 3650 driver but only able to installed Intel Mobility 4 series Express Chipset Family driver. Funny thing is that I tried to install the ATI Catalyst Manager, but it's not installing. I know it is not installing because when I right click on the desktop, I don't see an entry for "ATI Catalyst Manager" and if I go to C:\Program Files\ATI Technology folder, it is empty.
My another problem (main) is the screen turns itself on/off several times and I get "display driver igfx stopped responding and has successfully recovered" error message, and then I see a "fuzzy screen" which requires me to forcefully shut the computer off (by pressing power button).
I tried to install the driver manually on Device manager, but still no luck.
Anyone had same problem and maybe have a solution?
Thanks.

how did you install the drivers? lenovo-download drivers doesn't necessarily install themselves, but annoyingly merely extracts them to a folder.
or, more simply, use system update to install all the drivers

How do I repaginate a PDF document in Word 2008 for Mac?

I am trying to repaginate a PDF document made in Word 2008 for Mac, which I have uploaded to Scribd for public perusal. Unfortunately, whatever I do to the settings for the document it always comes out in reverse order. (60 - 1 instead of 1 - 60)
The problem is not with Scribd, as they just reproduce the document in the order in which it is sent. Somewhere along the line, the pages are reordered. They are not numbered in the document.

Hi,
Try this AppleScript :
It will create a new PDF file (the name will be "the original Name + _reverse.pdf"), it reverse the pages order.
Open the "AppleScript Editor" application.
Copy/paste this text in the window :
set a_PDF to POSIX path of (choose file with prompt "Select a PDF file to reverse the pages order." without invisibles)
do shell script "export VERSIONER_PYTHON_PREFER_32_BIT=yes
/usr/bin/python -c 'import os, sys, Foundation
from Quartz import *
this_pdf = CGPDFDocumentCreateWithProvider( CGDataProviderCreateWithFilename( sys.argv[1] ))
if this_pdf is None:
   print \"Error reading PDF document\"
   sys.exit(1)
tName, ext = os.path.splitext(sys.argv[1])
new_file = \"%s_reverse.pdf\" % (tName)
cfstr = Foundation.CFStringCreateWithCString(None, new_file, Foundation.kCFStringEncodingUTF8)
url = Foundation.CFURLCreateWithFileSystemPath(None, cfstr, 0, False)
c = CGPDFContextCreateWithURL(url, CGRectMake (0, 0, 0, 0), None)
cnt = CGPDFDocumentGetNumberOfPages(this_pdf)
for page_number in range( cnt + 1, 0, -1):
   page = CGPDFDocumentGetPage(this_pdf, page_number)
   r = CGPDFPageGetBoxRect(page, kCGPDFMediaBox)
   CGContextBeginPage(c, r)
   CGContextDrawPDFPage(c, page)
   CGContextEndPage(c)
CGPDFContextClose(this_pdf)
CGPDFContextClose(c)' " & quoted form of a_PDF
Click on the "Run" button.
Select your PDF file when the dialog is displayed.

Page numbers display as 5 of 1 and 2 of 2121 in a PDF that was created from a Word 2003 document

We merge several Word 2003 documents into 1 larger document that we then convert to PDF. The page numbers in the Word document display properly - 1 of 21, 2 of 21, 3 of 21, etc. We then convert that merged document to PDF by right-clicking the filename and choosing "Convert to Adobe PDF". For those of us with Adobe Acrobat Standard 8.1.3, the page numbers in the converted PDF file display as 1 of 1, 2 of 1, ... 21 of 1. Those with Acrobat Professional 8.1.3, they display as 1 of 21, 2 of 2121, 3 of 212121, etc., each page adding another total number of pages to the total. There is no change in the result if using v8.0.0 or 8.1.4 Does anyone have any ideas???

Unless you have a specific reason to upgrade to OFFICE 2007, I would not recommend it. I hate it -- have it on two computers. I have had problems creating PDFs reliably from WORD 2007 and PPT 2007, at least with graphics. The conversion seems to want to split graphics up into several parts rather than leave it as one. It does not happen with WORD 2003 and so assume this is some sort of issue with OFFICE 2007. You can get the graphics fine if you use the MS plugin for PDF creation, but then you have to deal with the MS version of a PDF. If you want to try it on one computer in your office, I would do that before you make the change. However, if what you have meets the need, then why change unless there are specific items that you are looking for and don't have.
OK, that is my opinion. I am sure there are counter arguments. If I had the preference on my newer machines, I would have OFFICE 2003. Bill

Word 2008 crashes when I have several documents open

I'm running word 2008, and whenever I have multiple documents open (some large) word seems to crash randomly after a while. I can open a bunch of documents, work with them, then leave the computer. When I come back and click on a document window, it'll crash usually. I checked system logs and it shows this:

One solution to your present issue is to consider NeoOffice or OpenOffice, either of which are nearly 100% MS compatible and do not suffer from these Word/Office-related issues that many MS Office/Mac users seem to have.
Neo and Open Office are fully Leopard compatible and I have never had any issues with them. I use them on PCs and Macs. They are free downloads.

Problems converting Word 2007 document to PDF

Greetings,
Have a brand new shiny computer with Office 2007 basic (Word 2007, Excel 2007 and Outlook 2007). Comes with Adobe Acrobat Standard. Installed Adobe Acrobat Standard with no errors. Opened a Word 2007 document that has an embedded Excel 2007 spreadsheet (its a document for generating quotes). Word document looks fine in Word. Prints to paper fine as well. Tried Save-As Pdf and the resulting PDF has big black boxes where the spreadsheet should be. Tried printing to the Adobe PDF printer with the same result. Downloaded update for Adobe Acrobat Standard and installed it. Adobe Acrobat Standard is now version 8.1.2. Tried saving as PDF, same problem.
Word 2007 is (12.0.6015.5000) MSO (12.0.6017.5000)
Adobe Acrobat Standard is ver 8.1.2
Microsoft Windows XP Pro.
Any ideas on how to fix this ?
thanks,
Darryl

Darryl,
Bill is correct - "Save as PDF" is the Microsoft PDF tool. However, on your Word Save As menu, you should also see Save As > Adobe PDF, which is the one you want. (At least this is how it appears in Word 2007 with Acrobat 8.1.1 installed.) You should also be able to select the Acrobat tab in Word 2007 and select Create PDF.
I tried a test with Acrobat Professional 8.1.1, and the spreadsheet inserted in a Word file shows up just fine in the PDF. I selected "Fully functional PDF" in the Save As dialog box (not "Quick and Simple PDF"). Also, did not create a tagged PDF. Does Acrobat Standard have these options? (Note: The PDF was converted correctly from both a .doc and a .docx file, with an .xls file inserted.)
Hope this helps. --GMc
