Hi Gail, We had a similar problem and were not able to get any assistance from Adobe support (they were not able to reproduce the problem). In our case, we were using a small nonstandard paper size. We noticed that the problem occurred whenever we tried to use any paper size other than A4. We got around the problem by designing the page layout in Word as A4 and setting large margins to simulate the real paper size we were after. After creating the PDF file, we used Acrobat to crop the paper size to the desired dimensions. Hope this helps.

I'm converting a Word 2002 document to Acrobat 6.0. The conversion itself seems to be pretty normal, except that the Word document keeps telling me that it is repaginating over and over again. When the conversion is complete, all of the xref links are there, but they're positioned slightly askew (some are a couple of lines too high or too low, some are a few spaces too many to the left or right, and some are a combination). Other links in the document (e.g. TOC or URLs) are in the correct place ... it's only the xref links that have the positioning problems. I've tried recreating the Word file just incase that was the problem, but it hasn't made any difference. I've also attempted to manually edit the PDF and move all of the link boxes to the correct places ... but the file won't save (error 116 -- which isn't documented on the Adobe website!). Has anyone else had this problem? Do you know what I'm doing wrong, or have any suggestions? Thanks!
