Default word and Adobe Acrobat

It's the ribbon entry that 8.1 provides for Office 2007 - and very neat it
is too - but if you don't need it ........
Back to the original question, Acrobat 5 *without the add-in* should work in
much the same way.

I use Acrobat Professional 7 with Word 2007, and it works fine for
how I use it. But, I've never used the Adobe toolbar in Word (just
the printer driver), so I'm probably easier to please than most. I'm
not about to fork out the $$$ for 8.1 unless I absolutely positively
need it.

If you upgrade to Word 2007, Acrobat 5 will no longer work. You need
Acrobat 8.1 for compatibility and that could prove expensive. If you
have Windows XP and System Restore running, you could restore to a
time when you knew it was working and be careful about what updates
you add. You could try downloading the free PrimoPDF and 'print' to that.
If
that doesn't work, there is something wrong with your document -
probably some form of corruption.

I use word 2000 to write my catalog and then convert it to a PDF
file using Adobe Acrobat 5.0
I have done this successfully for over 6 years, without ever having
a problem! All of sudden, word docs can not be converted. Adobe
reports the word doc is corrupt.

I sent the error report to Microsoft and they say office 2000 is
causing the problem and to correct it I should upgrade to office
2007 because it is supported and office 2000 is not.

They do not say the problem will be eliminated if I upgrade to
office 2007, just that I will then be eligible for support with the
problem. The program was running fine with no problems. Somehow a
Microsoft download caused this problem.

I can't afford to buy office 2007 just to let Microsoft try to help
correct a problem they caused.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
