Are the pages that are NOT printing contain content from the old original
that was emailed to you?
I'm thinkin' there's some junk from the old file in the new file.
What I would do, since you still have some time...is set up a NEW pub file
with your printer, then open a second instance of Publisher with the problem
document and group each page's content and copy/paste into each new page.

| Well, I can't remember how to print to a PDF - it's been about three years
| since I've done it and I can't seem to remember!
|
| I double checked to make sure I had "all pages" selected to print and,
yes,
| it was already selected. The book is set up to print page 1 and 44 on the
| same sheet, pages 2 and 43, 3/42, 2/41, etc. I'm only getting to pages
11/34
| and then nothing else prints.
|
| What I did with the original booklet that I got via e-mail, was to save it
| as another file and then add/deleate some pages as well as simply change
some
| information on some of the existing pages. Once I finished my new book, I
| deleated (yikes) the origial file. I have another, unrelated project
(though
| not in book form) that is printing ok.
|
| Just as a reminder, I could not get my book to print correctly on atwo
| different printers at FedEx/Kinkos either.
|
| The original document was created on an older version on Publisher. I am
| using Publisher 2007 on Vista. Do you think that could have something to
do
| with it?
|
| I really appreciate everyone's time and help on this mystery. The goal is
| to be able to print this book by my 11:00 lunch meeting tomorrow - I've
been
| trying for a week!
