Save As Adobe PDF in Excel not showing

I followed all the necessary steps but still couldn’t get the “Save As Adobe PDF” option to appear on the left side of the screen when clicking on File in Excel. Here are the steps I took:

 

  1. Verified that Adobe PDF Maker was added, removed it, and then added it back in.
  2. Logged out of Adobe Acrobat and Microsoft Excel, then signed back in, but the option still didn’t appear.
  3. Reinstalled Adobe Acrobat, but this did not resolve the issue.
  4. Checked for updates; both Adobe Acrobat and Microsoft Excel were up to date.

Despite these efforts, the “Save As Adobe PDF” option remains unavailable.

Go to File > Options > Add-ins and make sure the Acrobat add-in is not disabled.  Also these alternative methods won't fix your issue but might get you the result you want:  Do you have the Acrobat menu item at the top?  That's another way to do it.  You can also right-click the Excel file and select Convert to Adobe PDF.  Another method is to select File > Print and select Adobe PDF from the printer dialog dropdown.

Is there an issue as to why the Save As Adobe PDF button is not showing? I've already tested the add-ins and it's enabled.

Fixed. It was an Adobe bug that has been resolved.
