Reinstalled Adobe Acrobat, but this did not resolve the issue.
Checked for updates; both Adobe Acrobat and Microsoft Excel were up to date.

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

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.
