Hi there anyon
When I first got my computer, I used to be able to save a Word document into PDF directly from the open Word Document. The two icons that were in the tool bar are no longer there
Can anyone tell me how to put them back. I still have them in excel, but not in word
Sorry, don't know too much about this sort of thing. Any help would be appreciated
Thank yo
Deb
 
By itself WORD can not make PDFs. Saving to PDF is usually a function of
Adobe Acrobat, the full version not the free reader. If you have this
product, try re-installing it and say "yes" if it asks about plug-ins to
Microsoft Office. Beyond the full Acrobat, there are now several products
that allow one to print-to-PDF. That is, they intercept the output of WORD
(or other programs) sent to a special print driver and instead of making
paper make a PDF. Try a web search on "print to PDF" or similar. A decent
free product is called "cutePDF". A better not-free prodcut is PDFmachine.

Not sure if this will help but, right click on the blank grey area of the
toolbar at the top of the Word screen. See if there is a reference to PDF
maker in the list that appears. If so, make sure it is checked. If not,
reinstall Acrobat.
