I just installed office 2010 and windows 7, unfortunately after installing acrobat 8, I can't create pdf documents, I get a very popular error - pdfmaker files missing.

The troubleshooting steps for the earlier versions of windows do not work. Pdfmaker is properly enabled.

So what is the solution?

My Product Information:
Acrobat Pro 8.1.3, Windows

Acrobat 9.x, updated to the current dot release and any subseqent dot releases.

Adobe has not re-worked Adobe Reader/Acrobat 8.x for support/compatibility of Windows 7
Adobe Reader/Acrobat (9.2, if I recall correctly) starts support for Windows 7 (32-bit / 64-bit).
For Acrobat 8, a number of folks report success when using a virtual XP 32-bit session while on Windows 7.
Adobe Reader/Acrobat release 9.3 or better ought to be workable with Office 2010.
As to earlier versions compatibility within Office 2010; time will tell.
Your experience seems to indicate that one will need Acrobat 9.2 or better.
