    When you use a Microsoft Office program that is listed in the "Applies to" section, you may experience one or more of the following symptoms:

    • When you change the workspace in Microsoft Word, the changes are not saved when you quit Word. These changes to the workspace include the following examples:

      • You create a macro.

      • You change the default font.

      • You add an AutoText entry.

      • You add a toolbar.

    • When you restart Word, the items that you changed or added are not available.

      Note This behavior occurs even if the Prompt to save Normal template check box is selected.

    • When you try to start an Office program, you receive an error message that is similar to one of the following:

      Microsoft visual c++ runtime library

      Program files\Microsoft office\office10\product name.exe

      This application has requested the runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.

    • When you open a Word document, you receive the following error message:

      There is insufficient memory or disk space. Word cannot display the requested font.

    • When Word is closed, you double-click a file to open the file in Word. In this scenario, Word stops responding (hangs).

    These issues may occur after you install Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Professional, Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Standard, or Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Elements.

    Acrobat 7.0 installs a COM add-in in the following folder:

    \Acrobat 7.0\PDFMaker\OfficeThis COM add-in provides PDFMaker icons and menu commands for Office programs.

    To work around this issue, use one of the following methods depending on your situation. If the changes are not saved when you quit Word, use method 1 or method 2. If you receive an error message when you try to start an Office program or when you try to open a Word document, use method 3 or method 4.

    Note This method does not apply to Microsoft Office Word 2007.

    To manually save macros, preferences, and custom settings in Word 2003 and in earlier versions of Word, follow these steps:

    1. Press and hold the SHIFT key.

    2. On the File menu, click Save All.

    The changes are saved. Additionally, the changes are available in other Word documents.

    In Word, click the Save All command every time that you create a macro, a preference, or a custom setting.

    To add the Save All command in Word, perform one of the following actions:

      1. Click the Microsoft Office Button, and then click Word Options.

      2. Click Customize.

      3. In the Choose commands from box, click All Commands.

      4. In the list under the Choose commands from box, click Save All, and then click Add.

      5. Click OK to close the Word Options dialog box.

      1. On the Tools menu, click Customize.

      2. On the Commands tab, click File under Categories.

    Important This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow these steps carefully. For added protection, back up the registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

    The global template (the Normal.dotm file in Word 2007 and the Normal.dot file in Word 2003 and in earlier versions of Word) is the default template that is used by Word. By default, changes that affect all new documents are saved to the global template. This behavior occurs unless you specify another template when you save the changes. Acrobat 7.0 can prevent Word from automatically saving changes to the global template.For more information about this issue, visit the following Adobe Web site:
