Acrobat re-creates the PDFMaker toolbar each time Excel, Word and PowerPoint start up; even if you delete or hide the toolbars, they come back.

This snippet of VBA will hide the PDFMaker toolbar. It should work in Excel, Word or PowerPoint. Getting it to autorun in PowerPoint is a bit complicated. You can find more info on that at the PowerPoint Add-in FAQ or at the PowerPoint FAQ.

Sub HidePDFMaker()

Dim X As Long

For X = 1 To Application.CommandBars.Count
If InStr(Application.CommandBars(X).Name, "PDFMaker") Then
Application.CommandBars(X).Visible = False
End If
Next X

End Sub
