PDFMaker disappeared
I use PDFMaker to make Word documents into PDFs. Our group uses this feature
a lot. It was working fine last week. Then one day I started PDF Maker running, then realized I had forgotten to change something in my original document. I clicked Cancel to stop PDF Maker, which worked, then got called away to work on a couple of other things. When I went back to Word to generate the PDF again, the PDF Maker toolbar and menu item were gone. When I go to Tools/Template and Add ins, it tells me PDF Maker is loaded. I also see that it is still there the OFFICE11\Startup folder. How do I get the toolbar back so I can make a PDF? (The PDF Toolbar and Menu and there when I open Excel and Powerpoint, but not Word. |

Did you try Tools--Customize, Toolbars tab and turn on viewing the toolbar?

Then my first step would be to reinstall Acrobat. Meanwhile, use
File--Print and choose PDF Writer. ************ Anne Troy www.OfficeArticles.com "noblehouse" wrote in message ... I should have written that I tried this but it's not there to select.

When you say the addin is loaded - is it also checked?
Checkout http://www.gmayor.com/what_to_do_when_word_crashes.htm to establish that it is not locked by an orphan temporary file. See if http://www.gmayor.com/lose_that_adob...at_toolbar.htm offers any insights into why it is not loading correctly. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org noblehouse wrote: I use PDFMaker to make Word documents into PDFs.

It is checked. I deleted all the temp files suggested and I did get the
toolbar back. Now I know what to do if it happens again. Thanks for your help! --noblehouse "Graham Mayor" wrote: When you say the addin is loaded - is it also checked?

Did you try going to Tools, Security, and if you see pdfMaker or
Acrobat dimmed out, click the option to make if enabled. |

I went to Security under Macros in Word Tools. I find only Adobe System
Incorporated as a Prior Trusted Source. There is nothing else as option Or, am I looking under wrong Tools menu? ________________________________________ " wrote: Did you try going to Tools, Security, and if you see pdfMaker or Acrobat dimmed out, click the option to make if enabled. |
