Hi, I had this function in my windows explorer where I could right-click on a document (word, publisher etc) and choose the option convert to pdf. whoever installed my computer when I bought it must have added this feature. recently I was trying to free up some space and deleted my older versions of adobe reader (6.0 and 8.1 i think) and then I just downloaded adobe reader 9. I can open pdfs fine but now the function to convert them using windows explorer doesn't work anymore. The option still comes up when I right-click but it doesnt work.
Any ideas?
thanks

Buy and install Adobe Acrobat. Adobe Reader can't create PDF documents.

Try a repair of Acrobat Elements or reinstall Acrobat Elements.
