Word with Chinese Contents Can not be Converted into PDF | There is NO PDFMaker | There is NO PDF Menu

If an Office document contains both English and Chinese, then after I have removed the Chinese words in it, it will be able to be converted into PDF.

My Office is 2010 64bit. My Adobe Acrobat is X Pro (10.0.0)

The problems in the subject happen only when your Office is 2010 64bit (32bit Office does not have those problems) and your Adobe Acrobat is X (10.0.0 or older) (10.1 or newer Acrobat does not have those problems.)

Solution: Within Acrobat, click Help | Check for Updates.. After installing the updates, version of Acrobat will become 10.1.16 (on 21 December 2015) or newer.

Install a patch from here -

After you have installed the patch, the problems in the subject will be gone.
