    Default Word 2002 problem with PDFMaker

    Hello,

    I'm getting the following error in Word every time I run it:

    "Word has detected that your computer has a version of Adobe Acrobat PDFMaker that is known to cause instabilities in Word 2002. To resolve this issue, download an update from Adobe System's web site."

    The PC has both Adobe Reader v5 and Adobe Distiller v5 installed on it. I updated the reader to v6 in an attempt to resolve the problem, but it didn't help.

    I am unable to find a update for PDFMaker or Adobe Distiller on your Web site... If such an update exists can you point me in the right direction. The only updates I found for Distiller are v3 and v4 updates... Nothing about v5 or higher.

    Is there another workaround or solution to this problem?

    Regards,

    Peter Poulimenakos

    Distiller is part of Adobe Acrobat 5. You need to update Adobe Acrobat.

    Download the update 5.0.5 update. You can find it here.
