    Error "Missing PDFMaker files"

    Hi all
    When I right-click a Microsoft Office file to convert to Adobe PDF, the application returns the message, "Missing PDFMaker files," and does not create an Adobe PDF file. I'm using Microsoft Office Professional 2007 on Windows XP PC. Do you want to run the installer in repair mode? Do I need Acrobat Professional 8.0? Thank you for your help

    This error may occur when you try to convert files from Microsoft Office 2003 (Word, Excel, Publisher).

    Your system may have recently performed an automatic check for updates (for Adobe Acrobat, Microsoft Office, or Windows). I think you need to reinstall Acrobat Professional 7.

    Solution to Error "Missing PDFMaker files"

    Here is solution for you :

    Remove Adobe PDF from the Disabled Items list in the Microsoft Office application.

    To manage your Disabled Items list in a Microsoft Office application:
    1. Open the Microsoft Office application (Word, Excel, Publisher).
    2. Choose Help > About [the application name].
    3. Click Disabled Items.
    4. Select Adobe PDF from the list, and then click Enable.
    5. Quit the Microsoft Office application, and then restart it.


    If the error message continues to appear after you enable Adobe PDF, then check the security level for macros in Word:

    1. Choose Tools > Macro > Security.
    2. In the Security dialog, click the Security tab.
    3. Choose Medium or High.
    4. Do one of the following:
      • If you chose Medium, then click OK.
      • If you chose High, then continue with steps 5 through 7.
    5. Click the Trusted Publishers tab.
    6. Check Trust all installed add-ins and templates.
    7. Click OK.


    PDFMaker and the right-click context menu should function again.
