Disabling (Adobe's) Office Add-ins

I used to be able to save an Outlook folder (and all its messages) as a PDF. This was an excellent archiving tool for me, but since I upgraded to DC (at Adobe's pop-up suggestion), I no longer have the option. I tried everything suggested at Fix PDFMaker unavailability in MS Office but, alas, the ad. Outlook (Office) 2010 on Win 7. I use Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Extended. When I am in Acrobat looking at a pdf there is a File/Attach to E-mail option. That worked in Outlook 2007. It would open a new mail.
I don't think outlook should be making PDFs. You can disable the add-ins with group policy
Download Office ADMX files

2016: https://www.microsoft.com/en-au/download/details.aspx?id=49030
Copy the files under ADMX to your policy central store
Now create a group policy, browse to
User Configuration > Administrative Template > Microsoft Outlook 2016 > Miscellaneous > List Of Manage add-ins
Edit the policy setting, click show
Then specify the add-ins you want to disable with a value 0
To block other add-ins you need to find the progID for the addin, they can be found in the registry for each app in the suite:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftOfficeOutlookAddins or HKEY_CURRENT_USERSOFTWAREMicrosoftOfficeOutlookAddins
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftOfficeOutlookAddins or HKEY_CURRENT_USERSOFTWAREMicrosoftOfficeOutlookAddins
To block Adobe out of Office altogether:

Another option (less harsh) is to change the load behaviour to 2 via registry after install or possibly a preference. This makes the plugin not loaded by default but allows the user to load it manually.

Using PDFMaker in Microsoft Office (Windows)
The Windows version of Acrobat 9 automatically installs a set of tools into the Microsoft Office suite of software (Figure 4.4). These tools are known collectively as PDFMaker.
Figure 4.4 Acrobat 9 installs PDFMaker, a set of PDF-related controls into the Microsoft Office applications.
PDFMaker's appearance and abilities vary depending on your version of Office. In Office 2007, it installs tools that let you do the following:
- Create a PDF file out of the current document.
- Email the current document as a PDF file to an address of your choice.
- Send the current document to a list of people for a PDF-based review.
The Create PDF and Email PDF functions are available in all versions of Office, making it very simple to convert Word, Excel, and other Office documents to PDF.
The instructions below are for Office 2007. Earlier versions of Office have the same functions, but they reside in a PDFMaker toolbar, rather than an Acrobat 'ribbon.'
To create a PDF file in an Office application:
- With your Office document active, select the Acrobat ribbon.The PDFMaker commands become visible, as in Figure 4.4.
- Click the Create Adobe PDF button.Office presents you with the standard Save dialog box.
- Specify a name and location for your PDF file.
- Click OK.Acrobat creates the PDF file, displaying a progress bar while it works.
To email an Office document as a PDF file:
- With your Office document open, click the Create and Attach to Email button.The standard Save dialog box opens.
- Specify a name and location for your PDF file.
- Click OK.Acrobat creates the PDF file, displaying a progress bar while it works.When it's finished, PDFMaker launches your email client software and opens a blank email window with the new PDF file already attached (Figure 4.6).Figure 4.6 The Convert to PDF and Email tool launches your mail client and opens a blank message that has the new PDF file attached to it.
- Fill out the destination address and subject in your email client.
- Click your email client's Send button.
