"Word experienced a serious problem with the 'acrobat pdfmaker office com addin' add-in. If you have seen this message multiple times, you should disable this add-in and check to see if an update is available. Do you want to disable this add-in?"
Any suggestions?
Even if you do this process successfully, you will have to separate the PDF into multiple files once completed. Remember that the Adobe PDF printer is like any other printer in that it processes the information sent to it. It does not know what you want separate files. To get the separate files you will have to use Extract Pages in Acrobat or setup a macro in WORD that will step through your list one at a time to print, then stop for you to go to the next record.
I hope this helps some people out there.
Also, I'm using Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional.
Paul however, hit upon the solution. Although, the first time I tried it, it still failed. During my troubleshooting, I was going to remove the second page of the *.docx file I was merging, and I noticed that small 'dot' before the first word on the second page as well (what IS that little 'bugger'?!?). Interestingly enough, the first words on each page were NOT showing as misspelled either.
Anyways, removing said 'dot' from the first word on each page, THEN the 'Merge to Adobe PDF' worked.
I am using AA8.1.4, Vista (XP SP3 also), Word 2007.
So Paul - you ROCK!!
