Greetings,

When I have a word document in the horizontal page position, and I try and export to PDF [via print >> save as pdf] it gives me this error message ....

"The margins of section 2 are outside the printable area of the page. Do you want to continue?"


.... if I continue, then I'm missing the 3rd page [horizontal page], while pages 1 and 2 comes out okay [normal/vertical pages]


...... any suggestions on how to get that last page to be a PDF ?

thanks!

I'm not exactly sure what you're asking ... but did you try printing page 3 separately ? (choose print pages from 3 to 3 ??

the last page is layed out horizontally, so it'll print out fine, just in the horizontal direction.......

Can you change the orientation in Page Setup to convert it back and then save it?

by doing that, the text/image would get misaligned?

You could check that in Print Preview, no?

That would be my test to see if the realignment messed up the formatting in any way.
