I cannot publish pdf files while in Microsoft Word because the pdf icons are
missing. I have installed Adobe Professional 6.0 and Adobe Acrobat Reader
6.0. Isn't there supposed to be an icon to make it easy to convert a Word
document to a pdf document without having to open Adobe software and then
open the Word document to convert it to PDF?

The toolbar buttons are provided by the Acrobat add-in. Go to Tools
Templates and Add-ins. Is PDFMaker.dot listed and ticked? If it's not there,
search your hard disk to find it, and move it to Word's Start-up folder. If
you can't find it on your hard disk, reinstall Acrobat.

BTW, if you have Acrobat Professional, there's no point installing the
reader.
