How many colors is this document? You may encounter RGB issues, too.   Rich From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kory Hagler Sent: Thursday, March 18, 2004 9:22 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PDF-Basics] Printing Publisher Booklet in PDF Format I'm not sure this is the list to ask this question, but here goes:   The principal of my children's elementary school asked me to create a yearbook/annual, booklet style 8.5 x11 (which means printing on paper 11 x 17 and folding/binding, etc.) of approximately 44 inside pages and 4 pages of cover (front, front inside, back inside, back)   I am using Microsoft Publisher 2003 on a windows PC to create the booklet.  Where we are priting the booklet (the public school's print shop) they use ONLY mac computers so they want the file in PDF or Postscript format.   The problem I am having is that behind the scenes, Publisher creates the pages in the proper order for printing, even though what you see on screen shows the booklet pages in numerical order.  When I save the publisher file in PDF format (I'm using a printer driver called pdfFactory (http://www.fineprint.com/products/pdffactory/index.html) as I don't have Adobe Acrobat, the pages don't get set up in "booklet" fashion, therefore they are not in the correct order for the print shop.     This is what the print shop told me to do and it is a lot of extra work on my part:                   You'll have to make a 11x17 page in Publisher                 and then copy and paste the pages in the correct                 printing order, not consecutive order.                 For example the front cover will be on the "right" side                 of an 11x17 and the back cover on the "left" side.   Is there a way to do booklet printing in a PDF document besides redoing my Publisher file by copy and paste?
