Default Visio 2007 changes page breaks in vsd created in Visio 2003

Visio 2007 changes page breaks in vsd created in Visio 2003. We are
upgrading from visio 2003 to 2007 and it seems to have trouble with the order
of the page breaks. Which in turn is causing the drawing flow to acros to
the next printer page. Any help would be gratly appreciated. What it
actually looks like is. The drawing is 8.5 x 31. The top page in 2003 is
10.5" the second page is 10.5", the third page is 10". In Visio 2007, for
some reason it puts the 10" page at te top followed by the 2 10.5" pages.

It's not the order of page breaks, just the way that a page canvas is
allocated on the printing canvas, 2003 starts from the top, 2007 from
the bottom.

How about flipping your drawing vertically, cntl-J? The first shall be last,
and the last shall be first.

I think we're having more fun than Tazzytaz. OK. Cntl-J doesn't work, but
after everything is selected, either grouped or not, rotating 180 deg (cntl-R
twice) does rotate text direction as well.

Thanks for keeping me honest.

Default Visio 2007 changes page breaks in vsd created in Visio 2003

Well I have tried this new rotation Idea. Not good news. Some of the
drawings have a problem with text boxes that don't rotate. Beyond that just
rotating is not enough everythng then needs to be shifted up in order for it
to line up correctly. Then a print preview shows another problem. The files
have been set to print header and footer info, which ends up being upside
down and page order is reversed.

Any more help would be appreciated.

Personally, I think the only answer is a bug fix from Microsoft.
