Hello All,

I am using Office 2007.

I have Acrobat Professional 8 installed. It puts an Acrobat Tab on all
Office applications. It is the last tab on the right.

I was using word when something crashed my system. After I rebooted and
opened Word, the Acrobat Tab was missing. I can print to and save as PDF, but
the Tab was super convenient.

How do I get the Acrobat Tab back?

Thanks!

Click on the Office Button>Add-Ins> In the manage section at the bottom of
that page make sure Com Add-ins is selected and then click Go. You will see
the COM Add-ins dialog box in that Click the Acrobat PDFMaker Office Addin
check box and click Remove. Click ok. Close Word and reopen it and go back
to the COM Add-ins dialog box. Click Add and then navigate to the location
where u have the adobe files installed, this is C:\Program
Files\Adobe\Acrobat 8.0\PDFMaker\Office if you used the default installation
path and select PDFOfficeAddin.dll and then click OK. Close and reopen
Office, you should be able to see the Acrobat tab now.

Hope that helps
Dave

Thanks Dave! I ran into the same problem as the original poster of this thread, and your solution has fixed it.

Dave,

I had the same issue with Acrobat 9 and Office 2007, lost the tab, and couldn't figure out how to turn it back on. Thanks for the detailed explanation.

Your solution worked for me, too. Thanks. An addition was that it prompted to locate the dll file which was in the c: program files\ adobe\pdfmaker folder.
Thank you.
