Until the last few weeks, from about a year ago with Adobe Acrobat Pro XI on a Win7 Pro 64-bit system, I've been able to 'Print to AdobePDF' as a printer (versus 'Save As AdobePDF' which continues to work as expected in MS Word 2010, etc.).
Hi,

My windows 7 32 bit computer crashed, and when I reinstalled I used Windows 7 64bit. When I try to install Adobe Acrobat 7 (which worked on win7-32) the PDF printer doesn't install. Error message is attached, but it says:
Warning 20225. Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Setup was unable to create a new item: Adobe PDF Port & Printer. The Adobe PDF printer may be unavailable.
GetLastError: The operation completed successfully.
I have put program access control to the lowest level, but that didn't help this program.
Any suggestions on what might be wrong and how to install this? I would rather not pay $100 for an upgrade to version 9.
