Security Warning about Macros in Office 2003

Hi,

Adobe Acrobat 6.0 Pro. and Stand. editions ship with a word template
(pdfmaker.dot) that allow one to ship whatever they are looking at in Word
off to distiller. Getting the macro warning is quite normal right after
installing the product or having it updated.

If you choose to disable macros, then you will not get any of the
toolbar/menus in Word that let shoot the document off to distiller.

I'm thinking it is safe to allow PDFMaker since you are seeing the
"signature" file that identifies Adobe and that you are quite aware that you
have the product installed.

Hello:

I noticed the following security warning whenever I open Microsoft Word or
Microsoft Outlook 2003:


<<<<

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office11\Startup\PDF Maker.dot

contains macros by Adobe System Incorporated.




I am then given the option to Enable or Disable Macros.

Under: "Details" , I am shown a Digital Signature from : Adobe Systems
Incorporated

When I attempt to find out what Macros are to be found in MS Office [via
Tools--->Mcros in mS Word] I see a group of Macros I supposedly created
today, April 5, 2006. However, I don't recall creating anything of this
sort. Frankly, I don't know waht a "Macro" is.

I hadn't gotten such notices prior to today. I do recall there was an
update to the Adobe Acrobat 6.0 Prof a few days ago.


My questions are:

1) Why am I suddenly getting these warnings?

2) How can I ascertain if these are safe to enable?

I use:

Windows XP Professional Edition SP2

Microsoft Office 2003 SP2


Thanks in advance:

This is the macro for PDF Maker. PDF Maker allows you to "print" a Word
document directly to a PDF file. It's installed by Adobe Acrobat.

I have Acrobat 6 installed with Word 2003 SP2 and the exact same warning
happens to me. I also have the macros that are supposed to be created by
me on today's date.

You can get rid of the warning by checking the box that says 'Always
trust macros from this publisher', then the 'Enable Macros' button. See

Thanks Lance, Neo, and PA Bear:

I checked in that box to always allow Macros from Acrobat, and I now see
that toolbar in Word which allows me to convert from a Word doc to Adobe
PDF. The warnings no longer appear.

This is the macro for PDF Maker. PDF Maker allows you to "print" a Word
document directly to a PDF file. It's installed by Adobe Acrobat.

I have Acrobat 6 installed with Word 2003 SP2 and the exact same warning
happens to me. I also have the macros that are supposed to be created by
me on today's date.

You can get rid of the warning by checking the box that says 'Always trust
macros from this publisher', then the 'Enable Macros' button. See solution

Hello:

I noticed the following security warning whenever I open Microsoft Word
or Microsoft Outlook 2003:


<<<<

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office11\Startup\PDF Maker.dot

contains macros by Adobe System Incorporated.




I am then given the option to Enable or Disable Macros.

Under: "Details" , I am shown a Digital Signature from : Adobe Systems
Incorporated

When I attempt to find out what Macros are to be found in MS Office [via
Tools--->Mcros in mS Word] I see a group of Macros I supposedly created
today, April 5, 2006. However, I don't recall creating anything of this
sort. Frankly, I don't know waht a "Macro" is.

I hadn't gotten such notices prior to today. I do recall there was an
update to the Adobe Acrobat 6.0 Prof a few days ago.


My questions are:

1) Why am I suddenly getting these warnings?

2) How can I ascertain if these are safe to enable?

I use:

Windows XP Professional Edition SP2

Microsoft Office 2003 SP2


Thanks in advance:
