Default How do I avoid "Missing PDFMaker files" error?

I am running WXP (SP2) and Office 2007 (Beta 2). I have installed Adobe
Acrobat (7.0.8) and get the "Missing PDFMaker files" error when I try to
convert an Excel or Word document to a .PDF file.

Does anyone have a solution for Office 2007?

If it is an add-in *.xla you can put the xla file on your desktop, open an
new workbook in excel 2007, do save as and select add-in, when the dialogue
box open to the default directory don't save the file but just drag the xla
file from the desktop unto the open dialogue box and drop it, then cancel
the save as, close and reopen excel, go to fileexcel optionsadd-Ins, at
the bottom under manage excel add-ins click the dropdown and select the
add-in. If it is not an add-in I am pretty sure there should be a printer
driver that let's you print to a pdf file, so you would basically do print
and change the default printer to the pdf printer. If not you can download a
free pdf printer driver called primoPDF, you can just do a web search and
download and install, it lets you print any document/workbook to a pdf file

I had a similar problem with Excel 2003 and fixed it by reinstalling Adobe
Acrobat... :-)
