split published pages

[ljwmis]

I have been given a completed 14 page book view (double sided) that I want to
convert to .pdf.

My problem is that I want to split the double sided book view pages and save
to .pdf as single sided pages i.e. from 14 pages to 28. I'm new to Publisher,
but have tried changing the master to single page and applying but it doesn't
make any difference. As soon as I convert to .pdf it reverts back to the 14
page book view.

Where am I going wrong?

Changing to a one-page master and changing the view options won't help.
Here's what you need to do:

File > Page Setup > Printer and Paper
Set the printer to your PDF driver and the paper size to half the paper
size that you print on (probably 8.5x5.5 or A5)
Go back to the Layout tab
Ensure that the layout is set to Full Page.
Click OK
Print your publication.

Are you using Acrobat?
In page setup, printer and paper, select PDF, properties, Adobe PDF Settings
tab, Adobe PDF Page size, add. Type a unique name in the Paper names, type width
5.5, height 8.5, okay. Click the layout tab, click portrait if it isn't already
selected.

In page setup, click custom, should reflect the printer settings.

I don't if it makes any difference, but in your publication screen, view, clear
two page spread.
