Is there a way to get rid of Adobe PDF toolbar in MS Word without removing
the software? I customize the toolbar and remove it by unclicking the box,
and as soon as I go to another window and return, or close MS Word, it comes
back.

Anywa to get rid of it permanently, until I want to get it back? Why
doesn't it function like any other toolbar, where you can uncheck it and it
will disappear from view until checked it again?

I assume you are using Adobe Acrobat, not just the free reader, which does
not create PDF files. I have used this simple way to get rid of the Adobe
Acrobat PDFMaker in Word and Outlook. No macros or anything. Go to Control
Panel and Add/Remove Programs. Scroll down to Adobe Acrobat and click
Change/Remove. The setup wizard will start. Click Modify and Next. A
directory tree will appear. Click on the + sign next to Create Adobe PDF
and then on the + sign for Adobe PDFMaker. You should see a list of
programs under this, including Microsoft Office, each with an icon to the
left. Click on the little arrow on the icon and you will have a few
choices. You want the X ("This feature will be unavailable...") for Office
and for any other programs where you don't want the PDFMaker running. I did
this for both Office and Outlook. Click Update and follow the rest of the
instructions. This got rid of that toolbar and all the Acrobat issues with
Word for me, while allowing me to use Acrobat whenever I needed it.

See if this works.
