Remove Acrobat toolbar from Office v.X applications
Authored by: nbusis on Nov 29, '03 03:21:24AM

To keep from reinstalling the PDF toolbars, when the dialog box pops up on Acrobat start-up, just uncheck the box that says "PDF Maker", check the box that says "don't show this again" and select the button that says "Okay."

If you ever want to reinstall the toolbars, or have the dialog box show up on start-up again, select "Detect and Repair" from the "Help" menu.

Sorry, but unchecking the box in the dialog does not always work, either. As mentioned elsewhere, the best solution is to replace the macro files with locked folders. They are located in /Applications/Microsoft Office X/Office/Startup/, where you will find three folders, one each for Word, Excel and PowerPoint. In each of these files will be a file called PDFMaker, follwed with the appropriate suffix, .dot, .xla, and .ppa resepectively. Replace them with locked folders of the same names.
