PDF Printer missing

Acrobat Pro X, Vista Ultimate (32 bit).  PDF printer is nowhere to be found.  Tried reinstalling.

I'm honestly not sure it was there when I installed it the first time.  But it is there on my Win 7 machine.

Thoughts?  Fixes?

Thanks.

Try adding it manually: These instructions are for Windows 7 but I don't

think Vista's install varied much, if at all.

1) Open the Devices and Printers dialog box and select Add a Printer

2) Add a* Local Printer* at the next dialog box asking what type of printer

you want to install.

3. Select* Create A New Port* at the Choose Printer Port and select* Local

Port at* the type of port dropdown menu.

4. Click Next, then at the prompt name the Port "Adobe PDF" or whatever you

prefer.

5. Click OK and at the Install Printer Driver dialogue box, click Have

Disk and browse to *C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat

10.0\Acrobat\Xtras\AdobePDF* folder and highlight the AdobePDF.inf file.

Click Open, then OK.

6. When presented with a list of Adobe PDF Converter options, select the

first item from the list and click Next.

7. Make sure the radio button is selected for Use the driver that is

currently installed (Recommended) Click Next.

8. The printer name dialogue box should default to Adobe PDF Converter, if

not change it to that exact name.

9. Then click Next through remaining screens to install.

At this point, the printer should be installed. Hopefully this helps.
