Issues Converting Word to PDF

I just ran into this issue for the first time today.  I am trying to convert a word doc to pdf and it will not work.  It keeps saying, "Unable to process.  Please contact customer support for help."  I did as directed, however, after clearing cookies and cache, etc. from browsing history I still had the same issue.  I was then told to contact the community forum to resolve the issue.  I'm a paying member, so there shouldn't be anything wrong with my subscription.  Please advise.

 

Thank you,

 

John

Hi John

 

We are sorry for the trouble. As described you are unable to create PDF from a Word document.

 

++ Adding to the discussion

 

Would you mind sharing the workflow/steps you are doing to create the PDF from Word? 

 

Is this a behavior with a particular word file or with all the files that you want to create PDF from? Please try with a different file and check.

 

What is the version of the Adobe Acrobat DC you are using? To check the version go to Help > About Adobe Acrobat DC and make sure you have the latest version 20.009.20074 installed. Go to Help > Check for Updates.

 

Also please share the screenshot of the issue/error message for a better understanding.

 

You may try creating the PDF from the following ways described in the help article https://helpx.adobe.com/in/acrobat/how-to/create-pdf-files-word-excel-website.html and see if that works for you.

 

Keep us posted with the results

 

Regards

Amal
