acrobat and reader conflicts RE: TIME URGENT ... Missing Adobe PDF printer driver
Well, if Reader is so incompatible with Acrobat it would be a GREAT idea if Adobe's installation software for Reader checked for an installation of Acrobat before installing itself. (Duh!) -Hint to Adobe That being said, except for this single problem I've had no other conflicts with Reader and Acrobat being installed together. But there really is no need for installing both of them. I thought I was installing only the browser plug-in when I updated via the Norton security suggestion.

RE: TIME URGENT ... Missing Adobe PDF printer driver
2013-10-04-05T14:35Z Perhaps this is evidence that Dov Isaacs' cautions that having both Acrobat and Reader installed on one workstation can cause problems are true. I never disbelieved his cautions, but I also didn't see evidence - until recently. Here, my employer's standard is to allow both programs to be installed on one workstation. For me, the evidence of conflict was that, after a corporate push of an update, a command in a pop-up menu in Acrobat disappeared. The command had been there and I had used it before the update. ¿My fix? Because I have administrator privileges, I summarily removed Reader and repaired Acrobat. All was well again. As usual, YMMV.

Re: TIME URGENT ... Missing Adobe PDF printer driver
Similar to my recent experience of loosing my Adobe pdf printer when an update to Acrobat X (or maybe it was an update to an non-extant Adobe Reader, at least that was what the error message mentioned) failed. Reinstalling Acrobat X did it for me.

A re installation or a partial one is indicated. I take it you don't have Acrobat? In that case you need to reinstall FM.

Re: TIME URGENT ... Missing Adobe PDF printer driver
Easier would be to download the full Acrobat eval and install that. Reinstalling Frame is probably overkill and might modify your setup, which you probably don't want to do at this point.

What a great suggestion, Art! Solves the immediate problem, doesn't disturb anything, buys time. Thanks to all who responded so quickly! I'll retain everyone's ideas for the future. I intend to reinstall my OS real soon now tm, so of course I'll reinstall everything else at that time. I guess I have 30 days in which to get it done, eh? Hahahahahaha!

Re: TIME URGENT ... Missing Adobe PDF printer driver
Installing Acrobat after FrameMaker can sometimes break FrameMaker's Save as PDF, and the fix is to repair or reinstall FM. Another workaround is to print to file and then use Acrobat to turn the resulting .ps file into a PDF.
