Saving 2-page word document results in 2 PDFs

I tried to save a 2 page word document as a PDF (print -> pdf -> save as pdf) but what I get are 2 separate PDFs instead.
So, a CV.doc file becomes CV.pdf & CV.2.pdf
Any ideas on what's going on? This seemed to be working all right till quite recently.

Are there mixed orientations in the original pdf? If so, these threads offer information on Apple's inability to handle mixed orientations.

Not sure if any of the alternatives to Office (word) for Mac are near the feature set you require.
There are a few listed here at this page, in some ways aren't exactly like Office or Word; the feature you seek may (or may not) exist. I'd try & see about neooffice compatibility...

Acrobat XI Pro Won't Convert 206 Page Word Document into PDF

Hi there
As menetioned above, Acrobat XI Pro Won't Convert my 206 Page Word Document into a PDF. The Word document was originally a PDF file that I converted to Word and it has split all the text into sections.
It sounds like converting a PDF into Word isn't the best way to edit, re-format and then save as a PDF again. I would love to hear your advice on this.
Thanks very much for your help!
Fiona

First before you recreate the PDF from the Word Document.
In word: Open Document
Next open a new Blank docment
switch back to Word click on the ¶ button
scroll to of go to very end of docment.
click just to right of the perion in the last sentence.
now go to very beginning of document
Hold down the Shift and click to the right of first letter in document.
Now choose copy.
Now switch to Blank document
Choose Paste special.
Now choose Text only.
If works all the words will be there spaced correct but with no ¶'s.
Now insert returns as desired.
Now save as a docx file under a different name.
IF you are on a Mac use the following directions:
go to File menu > Print > PDF Hold down PDF button until Context menu pops up.
Choose adobe PDF.
follow steps when the first window opens.
Save as PDF in desired location.
Now open the PDF in Acrobat. Document should be properly formatted and ready to go.
AS you've found The conversion is not seamless. Acrobat doesn't distingish between automatic end of line breaks and Returns and you have to put the pieces back again. I wish Adobe and MS would get over the jealouscy of each other and share howcode works so Thatapplications could work seamlessly together. BUt they never will.

I have Office 2011 which includes Word. Ever since downloading Mavericks, when I try to send a two-page word document, some recipients get only one page. Also sometimes when I burn an image from iPhoto on to a disc, only part of the image appears. Why?

I have Office 2011 which includes Word. Ever since downloading Mavericks, when I try to send a two-page Word document by email, some recipients get only one page. Also when burning an image from iPhoto (usually no larger than 1mb) on to a disc, only part of it appears. It appears to have been magnified so that only a part of the image appears. Can anyone enlighten me as to what is happening? And how to fix it??

Inserting a 2 page word document - captivate 4

Hello All,
I have created an eLearning module for a client, and they are requesting i attach or insert their Terms and Conditions of Use document to the module, which will have to be printed and signed by their users. It's a 2 page word document with a ton of information on it. Anyone have any input or ideas for me?
Linking isn't really going to be an option for me...This is something i'm going to have to embed in the module.
It looks like someone asked for help with something like this years ago and didn't get anywhere. Hope you guys can hook me up.
Thanks!

There isn't really any good way to insert a two page word document into a Captivate project to be honest. The best way would be to convert it to a PDF and have it open in a new window when the user clicks a button in Captivate.
Alternatively you could use a widget that allows you to insert a large text and use scroll bars to navigate the content. Chris Dorna create a widget like that - http://www.dorna.nl/?p=338 - but putting a two page document into this would be a disaster seen from an instructional design perspective. Also I have no clue on how to get it printed and signed.
In my view the best solution would be to break up the two pages into more accessible chunks of information over several slides. On the last slide of this text you can have the user "digitally" sign that they read and understood it and then have a widget send an email to the HR department or relevant person that would recieve the regular printed copies. Of course it would require a custom widget and also access to either PHP or ASP on the server where the content is being delivered from.

Sent multiple page Word document containing photos

I had a 22-page Word document containing a table with small photos of dvds on my old Dell Inspiron laptop. I forwarded this Word document to my Apple iMac Desktop as an attachment. When I opened document it only shows page 1 and not the remaining pages. I thought that it was because it was all one continuous document, but there were page breaks on original document. What is the easiest way to send a Microsoft Word document from a Dell computer to my Apple iMac?

Most likely the table is the problem. Try making sure it is inline (in the text not floating), then it will flow from page to page in Pages.
First try selecting the table:
Inspector > Wrap > Object Placement > Floating
Which might fix it.

You probably have to subscribe to the ExportPDF service. You can ask in the ExportPDF forum on how this would be done.

How to make a movie in, Pages, that works when it is saved as a Word document?

I made a pages document, then saved it as a Word document, but the 10 second movie I saved in it doesn't play when you start it in Office and use it. I used an MP4, should I try to get something that creates a .WMV since PC doesn't play well with others?

I use Libre Office all the time. It can only "recognize" file formats that you have installed players for.
Install VLC media player (open source, cross platform) and it should be OK.
I have to wonder if your using the best medium for what you want to accomplish. What do you need besides the movie? Maybe you should be creating a web page? Certainly, HTML has far better support for embedding media in a document than anything else. Better as in will work on Windows, Linux, OS X, etc.

Export problems with pages/ save as word document results in corrupted text

This may be a new problem with Pages as I have not seen this happen with previous versions but, when I export a page made with a template, it ends up with merge problems - headers end up at the foot and invisible text regarding merge showing. When saved, a error box opens saying that merge fields are not save or similar, and I end up with a non friendly .doc file.

Printing multiple double-sided Word documents results wrong side being used

When printing from MS Word (Office 2004 11.2.5) several Word documents in rapid succession (so the first has not finished by the time the second has been received by the printer) in double-sided layout (as per the Print Dialog option) and the first document is an odd number of pages then instead of the final page of the first document being printed with stuff just on the first side it actually contains [incorrectly] the first page of the second document on the second side.
That is -
Document 1
1-2 3-4 5-6 7
Document 2
1-2 3-4 5-6 7
end up like
1-2 3-4 5-6 7-1 2-3 4-5 6-7
instead of
1-2 3-4 5-6 7-blank 1-2 3-4 5-6 7-blank
This happens when printing to both a HP Color LaserJet 4600DN (with built-in duplex unit) and a Konica-Minolta Magicolor 7300 (also with built-in duplex unit).
The HP Color LaserJet has 160MB of RAM and a hard disk, the Konica-Minolta Magicolor has 256MB of RAM and no hard disk.
Has anyone else seen this happen and does it happen in other programs (Microsoft being notorious for the number of bugs in Office for Mac they have).

Hi John,
This sounds odd as each print job would exist as a separate spool file with its own job number. If it wasn't for both machines doing the same I would have said it was the printer. But as you have said Word is a rogue when it comes to printing (and man other things). In order to get the next document printing so quickly after the previous, do you have both documents open? Also, are you using the Print icon in Word, or goinf File > Print? If you are using the icon, then I would suggest trying File > Print (or Command P ) as I have seen some strange results when the icon is used.
I have also seen the "Collated" option cause unwanted results. Try disabling this in the Copies & Pages menu of the Print Dialog (and maybe saving a Preset with it disabled so it can be defaulted to this).
Regards,
Paul

Pages 'Word' documents can no longer be opened in LibreOffice

I used to be able to open documents created and saved as 'Word' documents in Pages with LibreOffice Writer.
This is no longer possible.
I can still open documents created with Microsoft office and saved with the .doc extension in LibreOffice Writer.
Is Pages now saving the documents in a non stanard 'Word' format?
I have the latest version on the Word App on my iPad and I am using LibreOffice Writer Version 3.6.2.2 (Build ID: 360m1(Build:2))

No, there was no time-limiting on that feature, it should still be there. It sounds like you're having a problem with Word files no longer being associated with Pages as the default. I'm guessing that dragging a Word file onto the Pages icon on your Dock would open it... is that correct? If so, select a Word file and choose File -> Get Info. In the Open With section, change the selection to Pages and click the Change All button. (Note that this is assuming that the Word files have the appropriate .doc or .docx extension.)

Printing a selection from a web page, word document etc.

It embarrasses me to say, I cannot find a way to print a selection--a paragraph for example--from a web page or a Word document. In Windows it's done with a few mouse clicks: file/print/selection. I'm sure there must be a simple way to do it in Leopard, but what is it?

While there is no "print selection" command, you can use one of the globally available services to open a new window in textedit containing your selection, then print it.
Select something and then go to Safari>Services>TextEdit>New Window Containing Selection
and a new textedit window will open with your selection pasted in. Now you can print it.
I suppose if you do this a lot, you could write a short applescript that'll do this, print it, and quit textedit, and then stick the script in the script menu. Just a thought.

Saving changes in Word document

Hi all,
I am using the 30-day trial version of Iwork '09 and have been running into the following problem: Whenever I save a Pages document as a Word document, as soon as I make changes to the document and click Save just to save these changes, the computer asks me where I want to save the document, which is really annoying because it just takes so much time. I don't know if this is a common problem? When I work on the same document in Pages, this never happens, I can just make changes and click Save and the changes will automatically be incorporated into the document. I would really appreciate your advice on the matter!!!

Hi Thien
Welcome to the forum.
The .pages version is the only real Pages document.
The Word .doc is a copy/exported file.
Don't work with a Word document in Pages, that is what Word is for. Wait till you have finished, then export the Word version for sharing with other workers.
There are other programs that let you work in native .doc files, such as OpenOffice, Bean and TextEdit (all free), but Pages is not one of those.

Saving a modified word document without user intervention

Dear Reader,
I have successfully opened a template (MS Word document), and
modified the bookmarks using DDE; however, now in attempting to
save the document without the user having to respond I am having
problems. I have attempted to use DDE.EXECUTE(ConvId,'[Save
()]',1000); but this drops into the VB debugger and nothing is
saved. If I remove the "[]" then an error occurs. If I attempt
to place something with the brackets () an error occurs within
the VB Debugger.
Looking for a simple coding example using DDE.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Tina,
I would first suggest installing all available updates to his/her system and Office installation, including updating the video card driver to the latest version. Then try again.
Also try to do a Windows clean boot to determine if the issue was caused by any applications/services conflicts:

It's recommended to download and install
Configuration Analyzer Tool (OffCAT), which is developed by Microsoft Support teams. Once the tool is installed, you can run it at any time to scan for hundreds of known issues in Office
programs.
