If you wanted to create a PDF file from a Word 2003 document, you could use the Adobe PDF button, the Adobe PDF menu, or the ”PDF printer” option. In Word 2007, you must use the “PDF printer” option, as follows:
- Click on the Office button and select Print.
- In the Printer Name field, select Adobe PDF from the drop-down menu, then click OK.
- In the Save PDF File As window, navigate to the location where you want to save the PDF file, rename the file if desired, then click OK.
Note 1: Use this same method to create a PDF within any Office 2007 application.
Note 2: If you want to change the PDF settings for a document, you must use Adobe Acrobat Professional. Open Acrobat, open your document, change the settings, then convert the document to a PDF within Acrobat.
