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:

http://office.microsoft.com/en-001/word-help/add-remove-or-view-a-trusted-publisher-HA010354309.aspx

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

Regards,

Thanks for the quick response. However, when I access the list of trusted publishers through File, Options, Trust Center, Trust Center Settings, Trusted Publishers - Adobe Acrobat is not listed. Am I taking the correct path?

Combining/merge word files into a single pdf
