PDFs from Microsoft Project, Publisher, and Access There are specific differences to be aware of when you create PDFs from files authored in these applications: Microsoft Project You can create PDFs of only the currently selected view. Views designated as nonprintable in Project cannot be converted to PDF. Note: Converting Project files requires Acrobat Pro or Acrobat Pro Extended. Microsoft Publisher PDFs converted from Microsoft Publisher support crop marks, links, bookmarks, spot colors, transparency, bleed marks, printing bleed marks, and CMYK color conversion. Microsoft Access When creating PDFs from Access files, the process can involve two additional steps: • You must select the object in the Access file to be created as a PDF before using the PDFMaker button or command. • You can choose Adobe PDF > Convert Multiple Reports To Single Adobe PDF. For Access 2007, click Acrobat and then click Convert Multiple Reports. You can select individual reports that you want to include, and click Add Report(s). When all of the reports that you want to convert appear in the Reports In Adobe PDF list, click Convert to start creating the PDF. Note: When you convert an Access file to PDF, Access tables, queries, forms, and reports are converted. Convert Visio files to PDF PDFs created from Visio files preserve page sizes and support layers, searchable text, custom properties, links, bookmarks, and comments, depending on the conversion settings. (Choose Adobe PDF > Change Conversion Settings to review these settings, if needed.) When you convert your Visio file, only shapes and guides that are printable and visible in the Visio drawing are converted and appear in the PDF. Shapes are converted regardless of their protection or behavior. Shape custom properties can be converted to PDF object data. When you convert the Visio file to a PDF, you can preserve all or just some layers, or you can flatten all layers. If you flatten layers, the PDF will look like the original drawing, but won't contain any layer information. When flattened, the contents of only visible and printable layers will appear in the converted PDF.

If this option is deselected, only the current page is converted. Last updated 9/30/2011
