RE: Acrobat Not Following Word Page Breaks

["Robart, Kay" <Kay -dot- Robart -at- tea -dot- state -dot- tx -dot- us>]

I have had the same problem with Save as PDF, though. 

I always suspected that Acrobat couldn't tolerate a bottom margin
narrower than 1 inch, as that seemed to be the problem.

Thanks!  I was using the Adobe plug-in for Word.  Save As a pdf worked
perfectly.

I still wonder why, but at least I have a way to circumvent the issue.
Thanks again!
