Well, since any recent version of Acrobat gives you an Adobe PDF printer instance, you can create PDFs from any application from which you can print. But that's not the question.
The question is: Does Acrobat 9 install the PDFMaker COM add-in into the Office applications, enabling the Acrobat menu, which provides significantly more features, functionality, and control than you get from merely sending docs to the Adobe PDF printer?
