This error can be the result of a few different things:
- Installing Acrobat to a shared network disk instead of a local hard disk, then the Adobe PDF printer is not installed. Try installing Acrobat locally.
-Installing Acrobat to a directory with a path that contains extended ASCII or double-byte characters, then English installations will display the error message. Install to a path that does not contain extended ASCII or double-byte characters.

There are additional suggestions to troubleshoot this issue in the following technical note:

I have acrobat 8.1.3 installed and I am using Vista. I have been successful creating pdf files for illustator, photoshop, and other creative software. I am trying to make a pdf from Quicken and I cannot. I have tried everything and have not had any success.

Is there anything I can do?

Can you successfully print to PDF using the Adobe PDF printer? If not, try doing a Repair Acrobat Installation from under the Help menu.
