Hello Eduardo, We've faced a similar problem with mixed A3/A4 pages. FM will use the page size of the chapter from which you start printing for all the following pages. Two ways to do this: - save the book chapter by chapter to PDF and glue the chapters together in Acrobat. - save the book to PDF, save the chapter(s) with the larger size pages separately to PDF, remove the chopped pages from the PDF and replace them with large separately saved chapters.
But if anyone knows of a better method, please share it.

Cidade Sr. Sent: donderdag 1 september 2011 23:03 To: framers at lists.frameusers.com Subject: Distilling Mixed Sizes Live from New York! Good afternoon fellow Frame Templars and Acrobats I'm looking for that proverbial magic bullet whereby I can distill FrameMaker pages of different sizes without chopping them down to size. First, the system: Frame 9 unstructured Acrobat 9 Pro Windows XP SP3 Next, The setup: A FrameMaker book, including 13 chapters, 7 appendices, and several key indices. Mostly a 8.5 X 11 inch with about 6 pages embedded with 8.5 X 14. After using every setting in Distiller, all pages are distilled into 8.5 X 11, literally "chopping" off the tops and bottoms of the 8.5 X 14 pages. I've done this before and didn't change any settings, so I'm thinking there has to be a bug somewhere either in Acrobat or due to a recent Windows SP3 upgrade. If there are any suggestions, please let me know. All the best, standing tall, sword and shield....
