A few complications Roger,
This is totally wierd.
1. The 1st directory you mentioned - there isn't a start directory in
Office11, however, there is one in Office10 and ... that's where the
pdfmaker.dot file was.
2. The 2nd directory reference also has problems. There isn't a "program
data" subdirectory, so I tried application data, but it doesn't have
Microsft\word\startup subdirectories. booooo
I'm not sure what to do now. I have to reinstall the update to Acrobat (5)
every times I want to use it, if I've rebooted since the last time I used
it.
I found a way to beat it though. I copied the pdfmaker.dot to my desktop.
When I reboot and the toolbar disappears ... and I need it. I open word ...
then I double click the file "pdfmaker.dot" and the toolbar shows up. It's
wierd, but it beats having to reinstall over and over and over again. If
you or someone can think of a reason why it disappears, I'd like to hear it.
Bummer.

If you're using Windows XP, try to move the file PDFmaker.dot which is
in X:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\STARTUP (Where X is your
system drive) to
X:\Documents and Settings\<User name>\Program
data\Microsoft\Word\STARTUP
What version of Acrobat are you using? If 5.0, there's an update to
correct some bugs.
Also try going to Word > ? > About Microsoft Office Word > Disabled
elements and check if pdfmaker is there, if so, uncheck it.
Eventually you might locate the normal.dot template and rename it to
normal.bak. Word will recreate it the first time it starts.
Good luck
