I found many examples but finally I know that Acrobat Reader doesn't supporto OLE. With installation of Acrobat 8 professional the problem is resolved.
Thanks in any way

Save the .txt file as postscript (basically print to file using a postscript print driver - I've done it below with a Word doc), open in Distiller and convert to a PDF.

appWRD.PrintOut Background:=False, PrintToFile:=True, OutputFileName:=strTempDirPath + "\" + tempSeq + ".ps"

Set pdf = CreateObject("pdfdistiller.pdfdistiller.1")

pdf.FileToPDF strTempDirPath + "\" + tempSeq + ".ps", strTempDirPath + "\" + tempSeq + ".pdf", ""
