I work with both Word and Excel files from different departments in my company that need to be combined as PDFs. I also came across this problem when doing research to figure out how to put my organization's board books (500+ pages) online for their quarterly meetings. Is there any way to keep Acrobat from recognizing the Word headers as headers so they'll remain permanently in the document? I can't re-create the PDF document each time one of the zillions of pages change.Įdited to add that I know this would be easier in InDesign or some other program, but I'm the only one who has these programs, so the original files have to remain in Word so other employees can access the documents to make changes. It inserts the new page without the overall Acrobat header, so I update the Acrobat header and Acrobat then deletes all of the headers that were originally created in Word.

The problem occurs when I need to insert a new page into the document. Then I can add additional header/footer using Acrobat with no problem. When I merge the files togeter using Acrobat, everything is fine. Each document has it's own header and footer in Word, which I need to remain in the PDF file. I have a loooong pdf document created from many separate Word documents (Word 2007).
