It isn't just when I am printing the pdf. The page numbers don't show up on
the screen when I view the pdf file, either.

Are you using Adobe Acrobat? Do you have *Ignore Master Page* checked in the

I just clicked the pdf icon on my Publisher 2003 program. THe document is a
volunteer club newsletter and we would like to do it just using Publisher and
not have to buy Adobe Acrobat, too. We will be changing to Publisher 2007
next year and hope to use the conversion tool to change it to pdf so we can
email it to our members.

There are other PDF converters, many are free. www.primopdf.com is mentioned
here a lot. Again, page numbers will not print if you have *Ignore Master Page*
checked in the View menu.

"ignore master page" on publisher is not checked. Also when adobe acrobat
professional opens the pdf that I created by clicking the pdf icon in
publisher I have the option of Editundo headers and footers. Whether it is
checked or unchecked, no page numbers appear.

Thanks so much for your efforts, Mary--By suggesting I use freeware, I
assume you implying I should give up the idea of Publisher putting the page
numbers on the pdf? THe capability to convert to pdf is the main reason we
were going to purchase a new version of Publisher. I guess there is no sense
in that.

The Ignore Master Page is not checked in Pub. In Acrobat I have tried Edit
headers and footers at both the on and off settings and the page numbers
don't show up either way.

Mary, thanks for your help and for the suggestion to try another pdf maker.
It's disappointing, tho, that I am not able to use that feature of MS
Publisher.

Default Footer from Master page not converting to PDF

Hello Sue,
When you go to Print, if you select the Adobe PDF rather than using the icon on
the menu, does it make a difference? My add-in was disabled long ago from the
menu because it caused problems with Publisher, but the AdobePDF worked
flawlessly. I only know my page numbers always print.

The reason I suggested a different PDF converter, I wasn't familiar with the
term PDFmaker. I did look at my disabled com add in items and discovered Acrobat
was called PDFmaker. Sorry I lead you astray.

YES!!! That worked. Fiile Print Adobe PDF saves the file with the footers
but oddly, will not print it. I had to use the saved copy and select Print
in the Adobe screen to get a printed copy. Still, very doable. Thanks so
much. I never would have tried Print when what I wanted to do was SAVE it as
pdf.
