Outlook 2007 and Adobe Acrobat 9

[Malia]

I recently upgraded from Outlook 2003 to 2007. I didn’t find out until after
installing Outlook 2007 that it is not at all compatible with Acrobat 7. So
I figured I’d go ahead and upgrade to Acrobat 9. But after researching on
Adobe forum, I see that there are multitudes of problems with any Acrobat
version being totally compatible with Outlook 2007. I know I can print to
pdf through Outlook to simply create a pdf document, but I want the fully
functioning Acrobat, which I use a lot to create one pdf from multiple
documents and other functions that don’t seem to be available from Word’s pdf
capability.

So I thought I’d ask here for any Microsoft wisdom about this issue. If I
buy Acrobat 9, will I have a fully functioning, compatible program or not
with Office 2007? At this point, I’m thinking of just going back to Office
2003, but I hate that I just wasted all that money on the upgrade. Any
suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Malia
P.S. I use Windows XP

Your issue revolves around the problems caused by the Adobe Acrobat
incompatibilities. I suspect over time they will patch their software to
correct those issues(if they expect to keep selling that software),
otherwise you could look at Nuance PDF Convertor Professional for a lot
more features and a lot less money!
