    Cant convert word doc’s to PDF format

    Locked

    by borg7of9 ·

    I am using acrobat ( full version) and I convert my word docs to pdf format for our web site. All of a sudden, when I try and open my word document, acrobat says can not open the file because its not a supported file type or the file is corrupt, however I know this is not the case.

    I have been opening word doc’s for over a year with this program and converting them to PDF, any idea what has gone wrong?

      Can you print anything as pdf or just having a problem with word.doc’s?
      Recently had a similar problem creating pdf from anything in Acrobat 5.0.5. I couldn’t find anything at the support site so I just re-installed. Worked great.

      When I try this, it says ‘Opening the application which created the file.’ Is Word still available? What version created the .doc’s? What version of Word is now installed? Are you opening these on a server, and is Word installed there?

      You can reinstall Acrobat on PC. My suggestion would be first look at the file association. Make sure that .doc is not opening with Adobe Acrobat. This is application is reserver for .pdf file types.
