Re: Missing Acrobat buttons in Word 2000
Ok this is how I cured the exact same problem. and I didn't use the
acrobat update, works fine with Acrobat 5.0
Step 1: Make sure Office xp is installed on your computer 1st then
Acrobat 2nd
Step 2 : Navigate to My Computer -Local Disc -Program Files -Adobe-
Acrobat 5- PDF Maker- Then right click and Copy PDFMAKER Microsoft
Word Template 128kb.
Step 3 : Same again navigate to Program Files- Microsoft Office
Folder- Office10- Startup- now paste your copy of PDFMAKER Microsoft
Word Template in here.
Its as easy as that.
Oh yeah when you start up Word make sure - Tools- Templates and
Add-Ins , that the PDFMaker.dot is ticked if the buttons dont show
straight away.
