Where is "About Microsoft Word" in 2007?

Help! A couple of years ago, when I was running 2003, my computer crashed
while I was making a PDF from a Word file, and I lost my Adobe PDF Maker
toolbar. I couldn't figure out how to get it back until one of the MVPs (an
angel of mercy!) told me to go to "About Microsoft Word" under the Help menu,
whereI could re-enable the Adobe products. Apparently, during the crash,
Adobe software's compatibility with Word was disabled.

Now we have "upgraded" to 2007. A coworker crashed while creating a PDF from
a Word file, and she has suddenly lost her Adobe ribbon. I was hoping I could
re-enable her Adobe tools the same way I did under 2003, but I can't find
"About Microsoft Word" anywhere.

Is there an "About Microsoft Word" option in 2007 that corresponds to the
similar screen in 2003?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks, but we found it. It was hiding under "Word Options -- Add-Ins." Then,
when we selected Manage: Disabled Items, we were able to select Acrobat PDF
Maker and re-enable it. Restart the computer and Voila!

If any of you ever mysteriously lose your Adobe ribbon, that's how to get it
back without re-installing the software (which won't work, since it's
disabled).
