Avatar

Level 2

All,

This short-lived process has been working for years now and suddenly We are getting this exception . We are using Adobe LiveCycle ES3 and Microsoft word 2007. Please help.

I am using a process called "create pdf" which creates a pdf from a word file. While doing so , I am getting the below exception.

I would suggest you get access to the server, and try to open a Word document using it's installed version of MS/Word.

I suspect it may have an expired license or some other issue that it is trying to present via the UI - that PDFG has no ability to report.

Just a guess.

Good Luck
