Batch create WORD to PDF in Acrobat - please help

[EASYPAY GROUP]

What is the best way for you to batch create WORD-files to PDF-versions of those files?

Not working for me:

• Adobe Acrobat Pro DC - Cannot open (Word) document
  
• Adobe Acrobat Reader DC - Error downloading Zip -
  
  
• Adobe Acrobat X - Message that says i need to use Acrobat DC...

Thank you for your help. I'm beginning to think the download problem may be to do with our network restrictions. Maybe not?

You need to use Acrobat. Reader can't do it.

What version of Office do you have?

I have tried 3 Acrobat solutions. One of them was Adobe Acrobat Pro DC..?

My office version is 2016:

I have also searched and made a Powershell script that opens the Word-files from a particular folder in Word, and saves them as a pdf (like you would do manually).

The script hangs on different Word-files.

I could do it with a print command and send all files to an Adobe pdf printer, but then no hyperlinks or bookmarks added.

I can't seem to find a working solution.

I'm starting to think some Word-files are 'corrupted' in a way. Also filelocking in Windows 10 is more problematic than ever.

Did you install Office from the Windows Store?

No, it was pre-installed by our IT-service.
