Multiple-page PDF

M

I have created a three-page Word document on my Mac, running OSX. When
I try and print to PDF, it creates two separate PDF documents, one with
the first two pages, the other with the third page. I can find no
reason for this and I've tried re-creating the document, looking at
page breaks, ensuring that in the print window, all pages are printing,
but can find no explanation. Is there one?

Thank you.

Yes, this is a well known buglet. You almost certainly have a section
break where a page size related feature is different across the page
2-3 section boundary. If you watch your document print in the print
monitor, you might see it emerge as two documents.

If you want to preserve the document layout, try versiontracker.com for
a utility to join the PDF fragments up again. There are a few out
there.
