Question
I am trying to print a MS Word 2007 document to PDF using Adobe Acrobat Pro 6.0.6.2007010500. I am using text boxes. Adobe does not print the text inside the text box correctly (it is printed accurartely as hard-copy though). Is this a question of settings or do I need to download something? Thanks soooo much for your help! Thx Barbara
Hi Barbara,
Sorry for the delay. Unfortunately, MS Word 2007 is not compatible with the PDFMaker that Acrobat 6 uses to create or print to pdf files.
Word 2007 is only compatible with Acrobat version 8.1 or higher.
Microsoft offers an add-in that enables you to Save as a PDF from Word 2007 and other Office 2007 products. You can find it here:
