Hi Greg and Ruben and others

Thanks very much for the suggestions on how to make the pdf files work. I downloaded and used Combine PDFs from Versiontracker and it worked very well indeed. I thoroughly recommend it.

Many thanks once again to the list, I very much appreciate your help

regards

Yes, I've come across this one and it's easily solved. Print to PDF will always split a Word file at a section break but will see in the directory
you save the file to that there are other files with the same name with
numbers added eg printfile.pdf, priintfile1.pdf, printfile2.pdf etc
depending on how many sections your document has.

To make a single file of them download CombinePDF from versiontracker or similar. Bring the files in to CombinePDF and save to one - it's a great
little utility, really easy to use and free!

PDFLab will do the same but is more complicated to use - on the other hand
it is more powerful.

Cheers

Greg

Subject: word to pdf

Hi everyone

For the last hour I have been trying to save a 20 page doc from word X
(G5 with 10.3.8) to PDF, so I can send to a client. I have been using
print to pdf. It works ok with other docs I have.

There is no worries with the first 12 pages, but then it stops. the
reason I think is that there is a section break which corresponds to
the start of some landscape pages with a table on them. Sure enough, I
check my folder and half the doc is in pdf format, but without the
attached landscape tables.

Has anyone overcome this problem and can let me know what to do?

Many thanks for any help

regards

chris
