I usually keep "Save AutoRecover information every" disabled, but when I save a PDF with Acrobat 9 from Word 2007, it gets enabled again. Does anyone know if this is normal? It doesn't change any other settings, at least from what I can tell. Thanks.

It is unlikely there is any connection between the autorecover setting and the use of Adobe Acrobat. As I don't recall ever being raised elsewhere, I can see no reason to suspect your Adobe Acrobat addin is changing the Word settings. In any event, using Adobe Acrobat has nothing to do with 'saving' the file, as you're using it not for that but for 'printing' the file; an entirely different action.

It only does it when I save as PDF using the Acrobat link in Word. I've been monitoring it closely and the setting never changes until I save as PDF with Acrobat, then it does it every time. I thought someone else might have experience with this that could help.

Admittedly I'm using Adobe Acrobat Pro 8, rather than 9, but I'm unable to replicate that behaviour.
