PDFMaker icon is unavailable in a Microsoft Office Application

Solution 1: Enable the COM add-in file in the Office application (ie: Microsoft Word).
1. Start the Office application.
2. Open menu Help | About 'Microsoft Office Word'
3. Click Disabled Items.
4. Check the list for PDFMakerOfficeAddin:

- If it's listed, select it and click Enable. Close all dialog boxes and restart the Office application.
- If it is not listed, make sure that PDFMOfficeAddin.dll is located in the Acrobat 7.0/PDFMaker/Office folder. If the file is missing, reinstall Acrobat.

Solution 2: Add the COM add-in file to the Windows registry.
1. In Explorer, locate the COM add-in file named 'PDFMOfficeAddin.dll' and note the exact path, which may include spaces.
2. Choose Start | Run.
3. Type regsvr32 followed by a space, and then type the path that you noted in step 1, in quote marks. For example:

regsvr32 "C:Program FilesAdobeAcrobat 7.0PDFMakerOfficepdfmofficeaddin.dll"

Important: You must have edit rights to the registry to complete these steps. If you don't have edit rights, contact helpdesk@cern.ch for assistance.
