Hi, I am a MSDN & TechNet subscriber and have installed my copy of vista (64-bit)on my primary desktop machine and also recently purchased Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional as it said it now has 64-bit printing support. I installed adobe acrobat and used the workaround (extracting adobepdf.dll_64 and pointing the installation to that when it asks for the vista DVD, as many forums had suggested) yet I still cant created a pdf. Will Adobe be releasing an update to make this compatible with Vista?

My Product Information:
Acrobat Pro 8, Windows

Acrobat 8 does not support Vista NOR 64bit Windows at this time. We hope to have an update in the future to address both.

With the release of Acrobat/Reader 8.1 I can now report that we DO SUPPORT Vista AND 64bit Windows XP.

Enjoy!!
