I am unable to create pdfs from with acrobat from microsoft word. When I do, I get the message:

The security level is set to High.

Please run the application which created this document, in the "Security warning" dialog select the check box "Always trust macros from this source" and enable macro's created by Adobe Systems.

I am able to create pdfs from within word when the document is open. I have set in word to enable all macros, but cannot add adobe as a trusted publisher.

The user has word 2013 and adobe pro XI

Thank you.

Hi jnoren,

To add a publisher the Trusted Publishers list in the Trust Center, do the following:

  • Open the file from the new publisher.
  • Click File > Enable Content in the Security Warning area.
  • Click Advanced Options > Trust all documents from this publisher.

For detailed information, refer to the link below:

You can also add the document path as a trusted location, refer to the link below:

Thank you for the quick response.

I saw that as a suggested answer, but when I go to file, I do not see an option for enable content. I have: info, new, open, save, print, share, export, close, account and options. in the main area I have protect document, check for issues, manage versions.

Is there somewhere else I should be looking? I also do not see the enable content option when I open the files.

Thanks again
