Problem with 07 Office Pdf/Xps Add-in
Hello
Despite having installed the 2007 Office SaveAs Pdf/Xps add-in, I have seen Mary Sauer's posting on this somewhere asking if it in the Add-in of the Office programmes. I do not see it any of the programmes even though I have reinstalled twice with genuine validation. Anything else I can do? Thks. Menk |

It's like a printer...you print to it.

Problem with 07 Office Pdf/Xps Add-in
Hi John
Thanks for your response. Sorry I should have said that I've tried what you've suggested and I got the prompt saying: Publisher cannot find the file, and I searched the net and came across Mary's posting. I've tried printing with Word and Excel, as Rob suggested, but there is no option to 'print or save' as pdf. The Print option shows only Print, Quick Print and Print Review.

Problem with 07 Office Pdf/Xps Add-in
Hello John
Yes, I have the 2007 version and downloading to Desktop was what I did. I have also tried PrimoPdf but the result was not satisfactory - incomplete conversion i.e. 1 and a half page out of 8. Anyway, I repeated downloading the Add-in and this time I could convert Word, Excel and Powerpoint but not the Publisher (cannot save file), which is my main concern. I have also tried Pack and Go for commercial printing to create the pdf that way but it could not complete the operation. I looked in the Print Setup, the printer name dropdown shows my printer and Microsoft XPS document writer only even though my download was for pdf and xps. Any other suggestion?

Problem with 07 Office Pdf/Xps Add-in
With the Office PDF add-on you have to "save as". It will not be in the printer
list. Are you getting an error message? -- Mary Sauer MSFT MVP http://office.microsoft.com/ http://msauer.mvps.org/ news://msnews.microsoft.com "Menikos" wrote in message ...
