Adobe has formally announce an upgrade to Acrobat 8.0 in the Spring of 2007. Look for an upgrade to fix all the problems with MS Vista and the Office 2007 applications.

Stay tuned to Acrobat Users and we'll post an announcement as soon as we become aware of the precise release date.

I am using Microsoft Word 2007 and Adobe 7.0. I have not been able to convert a Word doc. to an accessible W3C compliant tagged, bookmarked PDF using the print to Adobe PDF. Is there a way make an accessible PDF using Word 2007 and Adobe 7.0?

Has Adobe offered a patch for Acrobat 7.0 to allow PDFs to be created and tagged using Mocrosoft Word 2007?

From their support post for Vista support, probably not.
