The latest edition of Acrobat PDFMaker appears to be incompatibile with Word and PowerPoint. To fix this:

  1. Start by closing Word
  2. To open your hidden user Library folder, Go to the Finder (leftmost icon on the dock with blue/white face) and hold down the Option key while clicking on the Go menu and choosing Library. The folder will open.
  3. Open ~/Library/Group Containers/UB48T346G9.Office/User Content/Startup/Word
  4. Drag the Acrobat add-in file LinkCreation.dotm and possibly also SaveAsAdobePDF.ppam to your desktop, then restart Word to test that the crash is gone by opening a new blank document.
  5. If the same error occurs, go to the Tools menu>Templates and Add-ins, and untick the boxes for the add-ins. If there are others for EndNotes or Zotero, leave those alone. 
  6. Quit again.
  7. Restart Word
  8. Repeat steps 1-4.

For PowerPoint, the path is almost identical, but look in Startup/PowerPoint.
