Question

FrameMaker won't export properly to PDF turning external cover to internal left first page

Document covers assigned Right side, have all translated to first page left side in the PDF conversion.
Save as PDF

Save Book As

reset my PDF settings

and it won't print to PDF, crashed the system every time, so nothing going there.

Each document set up, recognizing that all chapters start on the right, including the cover.  Formatting in document and book.

This is a new problem, I don't know what happended, but making the starts on the left, throws off the entire technical document.  The documents are correct in FM, just not converting properly.

Please help.

I can't seem to fixe it from Acrobat Pro 9, or from within FrameMaker11

This is highly frustrating.

Thank you for any and all input.

    What are your Book setings for the Pagination?

    To expand on Arnis's question -- you said that each document is set up to

    open on a right page. But the component files in a Book are controlled by

    the Book settings -- the book trumps individual files' settings. So right

    click the component files in the book window and look at the Pagination

    settings.

    Second, if you can't print to the Acrobat printer, there's something

    critically not right in your system setup... but you may want to delay

    fixing that until you get the pagination issue resolved.
