Access to Adobe PDF menu?

[JoelA416]

I use the AutoOpen macro to pop up a user prompt. I need this prompt here to
set correct font sizes depending on language. Apparently, when I Convert to
PDF from the Adobe PDF menu, the AutoOpen macro is run. I am trying to figure
out a way to determine if AutoOpen was called from Adobe's PDF creation
process, and if so, bypass my user prompt. Any ideas? Thanks!

Joel,

As far as Word is concerned, an Open event is an Open event, and Word will
have no way of determining the cause of this event - whether it is the result
of clicking File | Open is Word, double-clicking a document in Windows
Exploder, a "Documents([Document]).Open" call from VBA, or an operation
performed by some other programme such as Adobe PDF Maker. Therefore, I don't
think you will be able to modify your AutoOpen macro to stop it from running
when PDF Maker opens the document. You would need PDF Maker to send a message
to Word to let it know that it's PDF Maker that's opening the document (and I
really doubt Adobe is going to let you modify PDF Maker to do this - but you
can always ask them ;-D).

Short answer: Sorry, you're stuffed!
