1. Re: Acrobat pages don't match original pages in Word Document
William LaMartin Jan 4, 2010 8:02 AM (in response to William LaMartin)The problem is solved.
In Word, I originally had the printer set to my default printer, an HP LaserJet. When I changed that to Adobe PDF and let Word recalculate the pagination, the pages in the Word document matched the pages in the Acrobat document. Furthermore, by deleting the index in the Word document and having Word recalculate and insert the index, the index now had correct pages to match the newly repaginated Word document.
This is something I had forgotten. Normally, I don't worry about whether the line count on a page in the original document is the same as the line count on the corresponding page in the Acrobat document. But, since there was an index involved, the discrepancy in page numbers was a problem.

2. Re: Acrobat pages don't match original pages in Word Document
Bill@VT Jan 5, 2010 2:33 AM (in response to William LaMartin)This is a common problem with WORD prior to OFFICE 2007. Office 2007 set the default to ignore printer metrics. You can go into the options menu in previous versions of WORD and select to not use printer metrics (it is in a long list of options and is not easy to find). Otherwise, setting the printer before printing editing is a good idea. Another option would be to make the Adobe PDF printer your default. Then you would print to PDF and from there to whatever printer you have - bit clunky, but a workaround.
