Documents converted from Word include "mailto:" addresses, despite absence of hyperlink in original

New Here ,

I'm trying to format my CV/resume as a PDF document, but Adobe acrobat keeps adding a mailto: user@domain.com immediately after and below my email address.  I tried removing the hyperlink in the original Word document, but Adobe is still adding this.

It's not just adding a hyperlink, but actually writing out mailto:user@domain.com that ends up knocking my columns out of balance.  Has anyone else encountered this problem?  Any workarounds?

ok, and it's fitting that the adobe forums won't allow me to remove the hyperlink from the addresses above. *sigh*

Well, in case anyone else encounters this problem, I found one work-around: disable the Adobe plugin and just use Word's built-in ability to save as a PDF.

But if anyone knows a fix, I'd appreciate being able to use the Adobe software for which I'm paying a monthly subscription fee.

You may find it easier to get an answer if you ask in the Acrobat forum; this is the forum for the Acrobat.com online services.
