I can't seem to open the link that you have given. Is there a newer link or
another place I can find the information? Thanks "garfield-n-odie" wrote: See http://www.gmayor.com/lose_that_adob...at_toolbar.htm . "rodneychemist" wrote: The PDF Maker toolbar loads every time I start Word, even after I turn it off. How do I stop it from loading permanently? |

Try the link a bit later - the site appears to be down, beyond my control,
at the moment and I am currently away from my home country so cannot readily check with the web host at present. I will in the meantime e-mail them to complain -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org rodneychemist wrote: I can't seem to open the link that you have given.

Sometimes you can get around this by using Google to search. If Google has
cached the page (which it almost always will have), then you can get to it by choosing the link to the cached page instead. -- Suzanne S.

Good thinking, but this is the second time in the last couple of months that
1 & 1 has managed to lose my web site. Again it happened at weekend when it means hanging on to a support line for ages. They respond to e-mail but that can take 48 hours, so not much is going to happen until Monday. I certainly don't fancy listening to a recorded message for upwards of an hour at international telephone call rates I'll be back in the UK by Monday so if they haven't got their fingers out by then ........... -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Suzanne S.

is quite annoying. -----Original Message----- The PDF Maker toolbar loads every time I start Word, even after I turn it off. How do I stop it from loading permanently? . |

Remove the PDFMaker.dot add-in from the Word and/or Office Startup folder.

If you remove it permanently, you lose the functionality its macros provide.

How do I PERMANENTLY hide the PDF Maker toolbar in word
Plan C, moving the the add-in out of the startup folder: "A completely
different approach can be used by moving the add-in out of the Office start-up folder completely and introduce it when required." My startup folder is empty! I can't see any PDFMaker add-in to move it! Huh? I tried Plan B, creating a macro in normal.dot, and it seemed the PDFMaker toolbar went away for a short while, but it came back. I'm also not sure that I did it right, because I'm not into programming and need step-by-step instructions on how to record a macro in Word. (I used to know how to do it in earlier versions.) I think I cut and pasted the code into the macro dialog box all right, but I'm not sure I did it in the right order or clicked the right buttons at the right time. Can anyone help? I have Office 2003 on Windows 2000 ver. 5.0 (SP-4) on a government-owned computer at work. Thanks. ~~Diane "garfield-n-odie" wrote: See http://www.gmayor.com/lose_that_adob...at_toolbar.htm .

How do I PERMANENTLY hide the PDF Maker toolbar in word
Which version of Acrobat? The methods shown on my web page cover versions
5&6 with a separate section at the end for version 7. Are you sure you are looking in the correct folder for PDFMaker.DOT (if used) i.e. is it listed in tools templates & add-ins? You can drag that dialog box wider to view the full path.

5&6 with a separate section at the end for version 7. My Acrobat is version 7. I'll have to check with the DHS Help Desk to see if they can upgrade it to 7.0.5. I don't think I can do it myself on my workstation. PDFMaker.dot is not in any of my subfolders! The MS Office Startup folder on my hard drive is empty! I did a search on the whole C: drive and it's not anywhere! Yet that damn tool bar keeps showing up! Actually, the toolbar now does not show up when I first open Word, but it manages to sneak its way back in later. I think just puting the macro in the startup folder worked. I'd also like delete it from my Outlook email, but I can't if I can't find the file to move from the Outlook directory. Can I put the same macro somewhere else so it won't show up in Outlook when I'm using Word as my email editor? *** Are you sure you are looking in the correct folder for PDFMaker.DOT (if used) i.e. is it listed in tools templates & add-ins?

If the DHS (Government Department?) won't upgrade then that is very short
sighted - but hey The page gives workarounds for this eventuality. I don't use Acrobat 7 so cannot say how it is implemented for Outlook. In Acrobat 6 a separate DLL was used to provide Acrobat implementation in Outlook. Try searching your hard drive for that dll - PDFMOutlook.dll and if found unregister it by running the following command line from Windows Start Run regsvr32 /u "c:\path to the file\PDFMOutlook.dll" Restart Windows. If not you'll have to consult Adobe or ask in an Outlook group. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org DianeWms wrote: Which version of Acrobat?
