Converting PPT notes page to PDF: frame around "slide" is missing

[Guest]

My office recently upgraded me to Adobe 7.0.5 from 6. I have PowerPoint 2003
SP3. Previously, when I generated a PDF of Notes Pages from a PowerPoint
presentation, the PDF of the Notes Pages looked exactly like the PowerPoint
Notes Pages : there was a frame around the "slide". Now there is no frame. I
like the frame -- I don't care for the "free-floating" appearance of the
frame-less lide. Suggestions?

Adobe Acrobat, that'd be? Adobe is a company that makes lots of different
sofware. Or a kind of brick made of mud and stuff. ;-)

When you print have you put a checkmark next to "Frame slides"?

I've tried that. I put a check mark next to "Frame slides." When I preview
the Note Page in PowerPoint, there are frames around the slides, the notes,
and around the entire page. Then when I distill it into Adobe, I get a frame
around the notes, around the whole page, but not around the slide.

Other suggestions? Thanks for your reply.

Sorry, yes, it's Adobe Acrobat. OK, I've tried printing. It's printing the
frame, but does not show the frame onscreen... That's a drag. I'd prefer it
to be WYSIWYG...

Weird. Let's have a look at exactly how you're making PDF.
What steps do you follow?

And does this happen on a new blank presentation as well?
