Default ?? No pdf.dot to even remove! Now what!

On the chance that my previous messages have become buried -- I'm using Windows XP & Adobe Acrobat writer v5. I do not
have the pdf.dot installed. (A copy resides inside the Acrobat folder, however). My toolbars have started moving around,
and my find/replace dialog box resets itself to look for words and features I didn't enter. Suzanne, Tom & others suspect
Acrobat influence. I agree.

But if since I don't have the pdf.dot file in the office folders, how would I fix the problem, and still be able to
print to PDF?

A pdf converter is essentially a virtual print driver. If this print driver installed (ie listed in the available printers when you select print)?

Alternatively, though admittedly somewhat inefficient, you shd be able to import the Word document into Acrobat for instant conversion.
