SYMPTOMS
When you try to upload a Portable Document Format (.pdf) file to a meeting in Microsoft Office Live Meeting 2005, you receive the following error messages:

&quot;Live Meeting cannot automatically import this document into a Live Meeting resource.&quot;

&quot;To import this document, you must open it in its native application and print the document, choosing 'Microsoft Office Live Meeting Document Writer' as the printer. You can then import the .mdi file into your Live Meeting.&quot;



CAUSE
This issue may occur if Adobe Acrobat Reader 7.0 is installed on the computer.



WORKAROUND
To work around this issue, follow these steps:
 * 1) Open the .pdf file in Adobe Acrobat Reader 7.0.
 * 2) On the File menu, click Print.
 * 3) In the list of printers, click Microsoft Office Live Meeting Document Writer, and then click OK. The Save As dialog box appears.

Note You can accept the default file name and storage location. Or, you can change these values. Do not change the default Microsoft Document Imaging Format (*.mdi) file type.
 * 1) Click Save. You can close the .pdf file when the conversion is completed.

Note The new file will have an .mdi file name extension. Additionally, the file icon will show the image of a scanner. The original .pdf file will not be overwritten.
 * 1) Log on to the Live Meeting 2005 conference center as an organizer.
 * 2) On the My Home page, click the name of the meeting that you want to edit under Upcoming Meetings to display the Meeting Details page.
 * 3) On the Meeting Details page, click Join As Presenter under Actions to start the Live Meeting 2005 console.
