Hi,
I have been using Acrobat 6.0 with Windows XP fine. However, I just got a new computer that has Windows 7.
I installed Acrobat 6.0 but cannot now convert any documents to PDF on this new computer. I get this error--
"The PDF maker cannot find the Adobe PDF printer driver and to reinstall Adobe Acrobat 6.0"

Is There a patch for this product? Can I download a driver for the PDF printer so that it is compatible with Windows 7?
Thanks for any help you can provide.

This discussion couple years old but I got Acrobat 6.0 to run on Windows 7. First installed Adobe Photoshop Elements 7 then installed Acrobat 6.0 ignoring compatibility issues and it runs successfully. Installing other versions of Photoshop first may also let Acrobat work. Photoshop must provide some of the missing drivers or routines needed by Acrobat 6.0 to operate on Windows 7.
