    Unfortunately I don't believe so. This appears as a graphical line in the interface and not a searchable character. I tested using word's track changes feature as opposed to FrameMaker - but feel they will be probably be treated the same. To test - I searched for the bar symbol | on the...

    Error converting Word document to PDF

    Another area to try cleaning up, after checking the preferences for corruption: Acrobat uses a hidden temp folder on the hard drive, and when this folderis excessively large (for any reason) Acrobat seems to fail more and more frequently. Open a run command. Type in: %temp% press enter to open...

    Converting mutiple workbooks to PDF

    You have two Options I can think of: Combine the Excel Workbooks before converting to PDF or Convert to PDF and combine in Acrobat (fix the links after converting) The reason you can convert and combine at the same time, is that Acrobat has no way to know what page a hyperlink will land on if...
