Adobe Acrobat X Pro - Email Mail Merge from Gmail using Word

New Here ,
Jan 24, 2017 Jan 24, 2017

I have been using Adobe Acrobat X Pro for several years. Here is the

primary way that I use it.  Using the mail merge feature from word in the

mailings tab.  I would 1) create an email document; 2) merge the document

and 3) attach the document as a PDF.  Last summer my organization

discontinued using Outlook.  We now use Gmail.  This is where my problem

lies!  I attempted to add Gmail as an option but the emails end up in my

outlook folder.  Outlook is completely block by my organization.

Questions:

1) Can Adobe Acrobat X Pro be configures to work with Gmail?

2) If so...can you assist

2) Is there another Adobe Program that will work with Gmail?

Thanks so much

You’re in the wrong forum. This the InDesign forum.

As far as I recall, Acrobat X didn't have the capability to connect to web-based email services directly. You could use a Gmail account if it was defined in your local email client, like in Outlook, but that doesn't seem to be possible in your case. So your only options are either to upgrade Acrobat to newer version, or to get a different email application and set up your Gmail account in it.

Thank you!  Can you please tell me which Acrobat application or version

would work?  I have been unable to determine which will work.

Thanks again!

Acrobat XI and later support both Yahoo and Gmail accounts directly:

Thank you for your help.  Will the Adobe Acrobat X Pro need to be uninstall

before installing the XI?

Yes, you'll need to remove X before installing XI.

There is usually no need to uninstall an older version of Acrobat before you install a new version: The default behavior of the installer is to uninstall all previous versions (unless it's a real old version). So the Acrobat XI installer will uninstall Acrobat X.

XI or higher should work. Adobe only sells the DC version, though.
