How do I convert publisher booklet to PDF with the pages in order

L

LITTLEDIVOT

PLEASE HELP! I have a 28 page booklet created PUBLISHER. (two pages on each
lettersize landscape sheet of paper - both sides). When I convert it to PDF
the pages are not in the correct order. HOW CAN I SOLVE THIS BEFORE THE END
OF THE WEEK! MY JOB IS OUT THERE!

What order ARE they in? And what order do you want them in? What version of
Pub are you using? Are you printing this or is a print house printing it?

It would be helpful to know the version Publisher you are using. 2007 has issues
all its own.

I am using PUBLISHER 2007 as part of Microsoft Office Professional Plus
(Government).

I have 28 pages (7 landscape letter-size pages front and back). We are
printing the document in-house but distributing PDF version to 500 staff via
email (dry government funds). I'm thinking now that I will need to recreate
the entire document....

Thanks for your response. Are you saying that I need to start all over and
NOT use the wizard? I am confused....

NO. Just change your print setup to not booklet.

File > Publish as PDF or XPS > Change... > Print Options > One Page per
sheet (and set the paper size to your page size - probably 8.5x5.5")

Did you read Ed Bennett's response? He suggested you change your publication to
a plain setup rather than booklet.
Create a custom page size in Acrobat, 5.5 x 8.5.

Tried it. It works for print preview but the PDF conversion results in a
weird formatting. Each PDF full page shows a right half of page 28 and the
left half of page 1, and the same for following pages...

You're changing the settings in the wrong place. Please re-read my

Thank you so much. Changing the custom page in Acrobat worked. I didn't
know that could be done.

I have this same problem: I have been reading your solution and can't figure it out. ( i don't seem to have the same options anywhere) I have publisher 2002. DO i need to load the deluxe media content? (I never did)
i created a booklet in publisher catalog.i need to save it to pdf as it appears in sequential order, like when i set it up. I want the two page spread, not a single side of the booklet to print seperate. I feel like if i can view it in sequential order, I must be able to save it that way in order to turn it into a pdf file. I have the primopdf. please help - I am not that computer savvy so please outline every step very specifically so I can follow it to the letter.
Any help or recemmendations will be appreciated!

What you have now is a file when printed will assemble into a booklet on paper
What you have now is a file when printed will assemble into a booklet on
paper ready to be stapled. If you want a sequentially paged booklet to be
viewed on the monitor, don't use the booklet wizard in Publisher. Make your
page size 4.25"x5.5". When this is viewed the pages will be in sequential
order and if printed out will be in sequential order and ready to put into a
ringed binder

Create a custom page setup 5.5 x 8.5 in your printer. Change your page setup to
5.5 x 8.5.
If your booklet is letter size, convert the page setup in your printer to
letter, convert your publication to letter. Publisher will keep the pages in the
correct order.
