After the latest Office update, every time I open an Office app, I am presented with a window with the heading, "Share how you use Office" and given two choices: "Full diagnostic data" and "Basic diagnostic data." However, I don't wish to automatically share any diagnostic data, although there is no option for that. However, I am not forced to make a choice, as I can simply click the red "X" to close the window and continue to use Office as normal. The problem is this window pops up every time I open an Office app. Since this is obviously not required, please add an option to NOT share diagnostic data in order to permanently dismiss this window.

The menu/button which in English is called "Markup options" has in the Norwegian version been given the following name:

"Alternativer for HTML" (meaning: "Options for HTML").

This is highly misleading, and has given a lot of Norwegian users headaches, searching in vain for the powerful "Markup options" that their English-using brethren enjoy.

"Markup options" of course has nothing to do with HTML, but with the visibility of different kinds of tracked changes.

If you know what to search for via the "tell me what you want to do"-field, a correctly translated menu option actually appears: "Alternativer for markering". However, a better and more compact Norwegian translation would probably be: "Markeringsalternativer".

I note in an earlier comment from MS that the ribbon is used to 'increase efficiency and simplify command groupings'. This simply isn't so. I share macros in templates with colleagues, and the admin involved in ensuring that everyone's ribbons are right is a nightmare. Some buttons have to be recreated when macros change. An edited macro will run, but a rewritten macro (with the same name) simply will not run unless the button is replaced. In the past one simply opened the toolbar ... et voila. No issues. I now have checklists and alerts built into the macros and have to do constant monitoring because these things are audited in our highly regulated, compliance-obsessed environment. Why not use the ribbon and make toolbars an OPTIONAL EXTRA?? What's the issue there? I feel like a kid whose spiteful older brother is holding a treat above his head out reach. People have stopped mentioning Word to me, because they know that the next words from my mouth will be 'floating toolbars' ... followed by nasty expletives.

Please consider including the following "Turabian Style Paper" template with the featured templates in Microsoft Word. This template provides formatting based on the 9th edition of Kate L. Turabian’s "A Manual for Writers of Research Papers, Theses, and Dissertations: Chicago Style for Students and Researchers."

Given the pervasive use of Turabian's "A Manual for Writers" amongst students and faculty at colleges and universities (often required in the Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences), including such a template would be useful for many. At present, however, only two featured templates are provided for academic work: "APA Style Paper" and "MLA Style Paper".

Hi

I recently upgraded my HDD to an SSD on my mid 2011 iMAc. Now, can't save as pdf from Word docX. There is no error, just that nothing happens when I save as PDF.

I next first opening Acrobat X version 10.1.16 and then File > Create > PDF from File only to get the following error:

"Acrobat could not open 'lettertoeditor.docx' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded). To create an Adobe PDF document, go to the source application. Then print the document to Adobe PDF."

Finally, I tried to save the Word file as a .doc file and got the following error (I have nearly 2 TB free on my newly installed SSD):

"The save failed due to out of memory or disk space"


How can I save to PDF on Word 2011 for Mac?

Thanks

For over a decade I've been creating my own keyboard shortcuts for AutoText, which enables me to insert words, phrases, paragraphs, letterheads, etc., with a few quick keystrokes. These were saved under "normal templates," and when I upgraded to a new version of Microsoft Office, the normal templates would transfer with the new version. When I upgraded to Office 2016 (Office 365), the templates did not transfer, and I'm told that isn't a function in Office 2016. That means I have lost hundreds of keyboard shortcuts for AutoText. PLEASE enable that transfer. It would take me months to re-create those from scratch!
