Coverting a PDF from email displays a Acrobat reader logo why?

Why is it when you attempt to create a PDF from an email (outlook) by right clicking on an email and then clicking on covert to Adobe PDF it then creates a PDF but displays an annoying logo which states the following which can then only be opened using an Acrobat product despite having the email content located within the actual PDF which was created?

The logo states "For the best experience, open this PDF portfolio in Acrobat X or Acrobat Reader X, or later."

If the PDF is then attempted to be opened via a third party app like PDF X-Change or something similar it displays the logo with the above message but you have no choice but to install Acrobat reader and then and only then will it will show the contents i.e. the email?

The way around this I found is to not right click an email and convert it that way but to open the email and print and save as PDF but it's a few extra steps and not fair considering you can simply right click and convert etc.

How does one stop this from happening it's a but unjust to be fair being forced to see that logo if you are in a hurry and want to quickly create PDF's from emails.

Any ideas on how to remove this annoying logo from the creation process?

Thanks

This works.  This should be the default setting.
