I need to save an 11x17 publisher document as a twp page 8.5x11 pdf document
without having to lay it out again. Any suggestions?

Ack --- a sort-of-answer here --- but I did this very thing this morning.
Some Epson photo printer (I was on someone else's computer)I had emailed my
Pub 2000 file to take advantage of the "magic wand" in Publisher 2002. I
thought I would have to copy and paste, but I didn't! I changed the page
orientation from landscape to portrait. And I changed the size to 8.5 x 11 (I
think I did it in print setup?)It printed out on the 8.5x11 except for the
loss of about half an inch that would have been in the midline of the 11x17.
(I did have to play with the setting -- the first time I printed - I got a
weird page that had an 8.5x11 carved out of the middle of the 11x17 page.)
(Sorry, not at work to check it out.)

While waiting for decisions from his 6 university choices, Ed sees a
message from ChamberSolutions
Try setting the paper size to 8.5x11 and telling Publisher to tile-print it,
setting the overlap to zero.

Turn OFF "bookfold" (booklet) in page setup (select "normal"); set "Portrait"
In "print setup" select 8.5x11
I think that is the formula.

Open a new instance of Publisher, insert a page, from your 11x17 publication, select
half the page, copy/paste to the new document.
If you have created your tabloid document out in such a way it can't be done as
above, then, yes you will have to lay it out again.

(Instructions are for Publisher 2003, earlier versions may require slightly
different instructions)
File > Page Setup > Printer and Paper.
Select your PDF driver in there (perhaps Acrobat Distiller)
Set the paper size to Letter.
Now go to Layout, select Custom as your page size, and set it back to
Tabloid size.
Then click Change Overlap. Set "Overlap Sheets" to 0.
Now print to your PDF. It will be split across 2 Letter-sized pages.

Will this work, Ed, if the document is one long publication? I can see it if it is
already setup as two halves. Where do you put the break and will it look okay split
in the middle of, say, an image?

You will be designing in 11x17, but in print it will tile it to two 8.5x11s.
The images will split across the pages. It is exactly the same mechanism as
printing a banner.
