Microsoft® Word for Mac 2011 does not produce accessible PDFs. However, the free open-source programs OpenOffice, LibreOffice, and NeoOffice can open Word 2011 documents, and export them to a tagged, accessible PDF. After installing one of those applications, use it to open your Word document. Then, from the File menu, select Export as PDF. I'm using Microsoft PowerPoint 2011 on a Mac. When I use 'Save As.' And choose PDF format, I would like a PDF that has all the slides except for slides marked as Hidden in my slide deck. But I always get all slides in the PDF. This is a problem, of course, because hidden slides are hidden because they aren't ready for public viewing. Starting PowerPoint. Click the Start button on Windows taskbar and point to Programs. On the Programs submenu, click Microsoft PowerPoint. (Slide #1). A blank presentation will open (Slide #2).

Support for Office for Mac 2011 ended October 10, 2017. Rest assured that all your Office 2011 apps will continue to function—they won't disappear from your Mac, nor will you lose any data. But here's what the end of support means for you:

• You'll no longer receive Office for Mac 2011 software updates from Microsoft Update.
• You'll no longer receive security updates. Security updates are what help protect your Mac from harmful viruses, spyware, and other malicious software.
• You'll no longer receive phone or chat technical support.
• No further updates to support content will be provided. In fact, most online help content will be retired.

Why is Microsoft doing this?

Office for Mac 2011, like most Microsoft products, has a support lifecycle during which we provide new features, bug fixes, security fixes, and so on. This lifecycle typically lasts for 5 years from the date of the product’s initial release.
