Multiple designs in one file

[jrenz81]

Hi,

I am trying to create one Publisher 2003 file that contains different
designs. For example, I want to include a flyer, a brochure, and a custom
design in one file. When I try to add another design, it changes the layout
of the first design. Is it possible to do this one file, and if so, how do I
do it?

Thanks,
Jen

Open another instance of Publisher, copy all (Ctrl+a) of the brochure, paste to
the new Publisher publication. Make a note of the color scheme in the original,
apply it to the new. If you have a mix of landscape and portrait you will have
to manually rotate pages 90 degrees.

Do this for all your pages. When you use a template you will experience your
issue.

I'm not sure I understand exactly what you want to achieve, but I wonder if
it might work to make each project a separate Publisher file, convert each to
PDF format, then combine the separate PDFs into one file. pdf995, along with
other free converters, allows you to do this.

With Acrobat Pro you can concatenate several different pdf's into one.

You can also do that with tools available for free online such as pdftk.

Primopdf can concatonate files.

Primopdf can concatonate files.

Last time I checked, it could only do it if at least one is being
created with PrimoPDF.

Yes I guess you are correct.
I have only ever concatonated several Word or other files into one big pdf.
Never thought of concatonating existing pdfs.
I did one job for a student's (sic) doctorate where she had her thesis in
about 20 files and wanted one document.

If you preferred the output from Publisher's PDF module to PrimoPDF's,
then you'd need a different solution. (Of course I've now noticed that
this thread is about Publisher 2003, so that argument holds as much
water as a colandar.)
