Churchy Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 My document has several blank pages in between pages with printing elements. They do not appear on the exported PDFs. How can I be sure to make them appear? Standing Stone sans E.afpub Standing Stone sans E.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff stokerg Posted March 17, 2023 Staff Share Posted March 17, 2023 Hi @Churchy, Where should the blank pages be? Your file is exporting to PDF exactly how it's laid out in Publisher, you have a total of 3 blank pages in the attached file and they are all in the PDF. Did you attach the right file?

firstdefence Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 I can't see any difference between the afpub file and the exported PDF?

Churchy Posted March 17, 2023 Author Share Posted March 17, 2023 I don't know what happened; it certainly didn't seem to have the blanks when I looked at it. Now it doesn't export most of the front matter, though I've asked for all the pages. Standing Stone sans E.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As when I check your newly attached PDF, the text matches up to the afpub file you attached in your first post. Also how are you checking the PDF?

Churchy Posted March 17, 2023 Author Share Posted March 17, 2023 The entire first section of eight pages is not appearing in the PDF when I open it in Acrobat. There should be a total of 34 pages. when I open Acrobat to check it there are are 29. There is no blank after the half title, and there should be. I don't understand why everyone else seems to see the correct version and I don't. Is this a problem with Acrobat? I've never had it before; the PDFs were correct until yesterday. I am attaching reduced size screen captures of the PDF as I see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Churchy Posted March 17, 2023 Author Share Posted March 17, 2023 Well now that I've posted the problem it seems to have disappeared. All pages are showing in the PDF. I restarted the computer; perhaps that helped. Thanks to all who answered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you are on a mac: For unexpected PDF display issues it can be worth to check in macOS Preview.app, too, or any other PDF viewing app. Even opening the PDF in Affinity may be a useful option.
