Adobe PDF Maker Batch Create not loading into AutoCAD Electrical 2022

a_garcia2 — Mon, 19 Jul 2021 12:16:16 GMT

In previous versions of AutoCAD we were able to manually "APPLOAD" the AcrobatAcadIc.arx, AcrobatAcadIc.dbx and PDFMAcad.arx into AutoCAD based products such as AutoCAD Electrical 2020, which I am currently running. I've been asked to evaluate AutoCAD Electrical 2022 to weed out any variations in day to day function so that we can get our design group software upgraded to the current software version as soon as possible. In the initial setup I attempted to run the APPLOAD command and add the files from C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat DC\PDFMaker\AutoCAD\2019\64 which currently works in AutoCAD 2020 and adds Adobe PDF, Acrobat Markups Menus and an Acrobat tab to our Ribbon. I've attached a picture of the menu dropdowns and ribbon tab.

I am hoping for some edification in what the Adobe process is in updating these types of addons and what the typical timeline is from release of an Autodesk Product and Adobe releasing their compatible addons.

Thank you for any and all help you can provide.

Your Acrobat tool may not be supported in 2022 versions of AutoCAD, or you are missing a key component: Acrobat Support for adding/issues adding their tools to the program is way over there https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat/bd-p/acrobat?page=1&sort=latest_replies&filter=all

Thank you for the information. I've posted there as well back in May with no results so I thought I'd ask for help from the experts here at Autodesk.

Then try again: and again if necessary. This is July, that forum is very busy, your old post there is lost in the noise.
You can also reach Adobe Support (if you have a paid subscription like everywhere else expect) here https://www.adobe.com/about-adobe/contact.html
