Remove Acrobat toolbar from Office v.X applications
Authored by: mricart on Nov 29, '03 03:41:46AM

Personally, I've put *folder* in place of the PDF files inside the "Microsoft Office X" folder. More precisely:
- in "Microsoft Office X" folder: I've put a "PDFMakerLib" folder
- in "Microsoft Office X/Office/Startup" folder: there are 3 folders ("Excel", "PowerPoint", "Word"), and Acrobat puts a file in each (respectively "PDFMaker.xla", "PDFMaker.ppa", "PDFMaker.dot"): I've replaced again each of them with a *folder* with the same name

Those folders are empty, but that's enough to prevent Acrobat to replace them (I guess it's because "unlink()" doesn't work on folders, for which "rmdir()" must be used).

Hope this helps.
