*PDF Add In*
Hi i am hoping this is a simple question/solution.
I have heard in the past you can download a PDF Addin for Microsoft Office (Word). The questions I have a 1. Do you still need Acrobat Professional? 2. Where can I download it for Office 2003, as the only one I can find on the Microsoft download site is for Office 2007? Thanks in advance, I hope someone can help as I am spending time looking for something that might not even exist or work. |

There is no add-in for Office 2003, it's 2007 only.
If all you need is to be able to create .pdf files, there are several free/low-cost alternatives to Adobe Acrobat. And there are other versions of Acrobat other than Pro. That may be more than what you need. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] ~~~~~ How to ask a question http://support.microsoft.com/KB/555375 "Kelly Armitage" wrote in message ...

Asfor there not being an add in for 2003 that is incorrect, half of our
office in various locations across the country has the little PDF button on their Word toolbars, all of which are Office 2003. While it might be 3rd party (as i do not know for sure), it definately exists. "JoAnn Paules" wrote: There is no add-in for Office 2003, it's 2007 only.

Yes, there are add-in's for 2003. No, they are not available through
Microsoft. I use PDFCreator which works as a printer selection to create PDF files. It's free. There are many others out there. Do a Goggle search or ask the people that still have the button what is running under the button. Brian "Kelly Armitage" wrote in message ...

There is no download for Word or other Office programs for any version
prior to 2007 to do what the download for2007 will do. That PDF button you see in Word 2003 is for Adobe Acrobat program. It is a 3rd party program and is relatively expensive for each license. As many have said there are third party programs for use with ANY program that can print to a printer that will create a PDF file. If you need to create a PDF file from a Word document I recommend the download and install of PrimoPDF which can be had he http://www.primopdf.com/. If you do qualify for and download the 2007 Save As PDF file, you do not need any other program to allow it to work other than the Office 2007 program/s. For a free PDF reader, I use Foxit Reader that loads a lot faster than Acrobat Reader and it can be had he http://www.foxitsoftware.com/ "Kelly Armitage" wrote in message ...
