I'm tyring to change the setting in the PDFMaker Advanced Settings. When I do Save As, it wants to save it MyDocuments and I click 'OK'. When I go look for the new name to switch to that configuration it not listed in the drop down box. Is there some place I'm suppose to save it or it doesn't work?

thanks

The PDF Settings must be stored here to show up in Distiller:
(Windows) /Documents and Settings/[user name]/Application Data/Adobe/Adobe PDF/Settings
(Vista) User/[user name]/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Adobe PDF/Settings

The PDF Settings must saved in this directory in Distiller, to show up for PDFMaker:
(Windows) /Documents and Settings/[user name]/Application Data/Adobe/Adobe PDF/Settings
(Vista) User/[user name]/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Adobe PDF/Settings

Okay, I can see it there, Access18, but I don't see it as option in Conversion Settings for Word 2007. There is the Standard setting but I don't want to use that setting.

thx

If the settings show up in Distiller, they load and show up in the same place in Word. When you click on Standard to change the PDF Settings, do you see a full list? Including High Quality Print?
