Hi everyone,

I have been desperately looking for help in various forums, but couldn't find help any solution.

Problem faced:

When I convert a Word document into a pdf document using "save as", I have always the same title (the title of a very old document) showing up in the title bar, while I would like to keep the name of the original Word document.

Unsuccessful attempts:

(1) I went to properties to change the title, as recommended in some forums but the title is in grey, which means that I have no way to change it.

(2) I couldn't seen any "Windows Option" in Adobe which would require Adobe to use the same title as the initial document, as suggested in some forums.

(3) I have uninstalled Adobe and reinstalled it, but nothing has changed. I don't know what to do anymore...

Can you please help me?

Best regards,

Gwenaëlle

    Acrobat Reader can't change this. Change the title in MS Word and re-create the PDF file.
