I have been use DC in a computer with 16GB RAM, i7 processor.

Creating pdf from webpage.

Out of memory.

So, i buy another computer. 64GB RAM, i7 last generation. I also buy the latest Adobe Acrobat 2017 version.

Surprise. Same error.

I have been paid a lot of money for those two software and for the new computer. Hoping is working.

Not, is not working. I have been try all the methods that i read here. Nothing work.

But, why the versions 7 and 8 of Acrobat are working just fine? And i am running those two in weak computers, no problem..

From years now, it seems Adobe did not care about this issue. It is a shame, for you, guys.

I will wait more few days and next, i will tell to everyone who buy those products to ask for money back.

First, my money back.

Is it a Mac or Windows machine and what is the version of OS installed?

Are you getting the error message when you are creating a PDF from web-page using a browser or from the Acrobat's File menu?

Acrobat is limited to using 2 GB of memory maximum, so adding more does not make a difference.

You say Adobe do not care - Did you report this issue to Adobe?

Hello Marius,

we here in the forum are not employees of Adobe, we are users like you, sometimes and unexpectedly one of them strays to the spot. Therefore, it is necessary to present your problem to Adobe itself. But maybe you can try too to find one competent Adobe personnel who takes care for your problems, by using forums search function with the keyword "staff".
