Problems with Adobe 8

[Cwhite]

I have the full version of Adobe 8 Pro and the full version of MS Office 2003
Pro. On my vista os machine, I can get the Create PDF toolbar button to show
and I am able to create a PDF file from ALL Office programs EXCEPT Word and
Excel. How is this possible? When I installed Adobe 8, I specifically made
sure that all Office programs were included in the install. It works with
Outlook, PowerPoint, Infopath, Publisher, Access. Just not Word or Excel -
why?

You realize you don't need that button, don't you?

No I did not. However, when I have Adobe open and then try open a word file
in Adobe, it tells me the converter is not loaded and to install it. It is
loaded.

Thanks.

You realize you don't need that button, don't you?

You can't open a Word doc in Acrobat. When you have a file that you want to
convert to a PDF, select Print and change the printer to Adobe PDF maker (or
something along that line).

R-click the Word file and pick "Convert to PDF". You don't OPEN it with
Adobe.

No I did not. However, when I have Adobe open and then try open a word file
