After I create a pdf doc it now tries to open in Word instead of Adobe. What setting do I need to change to get Adobe to open automatically? Thanks, Rich

Hi rich03079,

It sounds as though your file association for PDF is incorrect. Trying running the Repair Acrobat Installation (Help --> Repair Acrobagt Installation) to correct the problem.Hope this helps,
Lori

Thank you for help Lori.

I have run the repair and Word still opens instead of Adobe after pdf creations, so I have had to remove Word from this computer.

I'll have to go back and try to figure this out when I have more time. I really appreciate your response.
