Hi,
Using Windoze XP SP2 and Ooo 2.1.0
I have a 3116 page document all pages are portrait and updating the Table of
Contents does not affect the number of pages. When I export as .pdf there
are no changes that I am aware of. The pages listed in the TOC are the
actual pages before and after the export to .pdf.

Well I'm glad it works for somebody. Unfortunately I need to have
several landscape pages. If I could figure out how to rotate a table I
could likely remove the landscape pages. I don't see any reason for pdf
export to repaginate (it tells you it is repaginating). There is no
problem with updating the TOC. That works fine. The problem is with pdf
export. If repagination occurs automatically then the logical thing to
do is to update all the indicies automatically before creating the pdf.
My solution is to avoid pdf export and instead to print to a file (after
making sure everything is updated), and then use ps2pdf to convert to a
pdf. ps2pdf doesn't try to repaginate and everything looks perfect and
I've saved myself a nervous breakdown.
Someone has said that there is a way to stop pdf export from inserting
blank pages - but I can find nothing about this in the Help system.

Rick: Maybe you've said this and I missed it, but have you tried PDF
Creator? (a free program) It would be interesting to see if that worked
any differently than OOo's PDF exporter.
I fully agree with your contention that there is no reason that OOo
should be repaginating as part of the pdf creation process. So something
seems amiss. I can't remember what system you're on (Windows? Linux?) If
there would be any way of trying it (either yourself if you can, or
finding someone else) on the other operating system, the one you're not
using, it might help figure out if this is a general OOo bug (or very
annoying feature, depending on how you look at it), or if it's something
specific with your system or setup.
