I submitted the following problem to Adobe and it is not yet solved, so I'm looking for users who experienced the same issue. Thanks! --- The problem: When working with file "Livre 5_B.fm". I goto "View / Master Pages", change nothing. Do "View / Body", a dialog ask me if I want to keep overrides, I check "Keep Overrides". The layout should stay identical but it doesn't. I have included (by FTP folder "0180131678") 4 files : - "Livre 5_B_before.pdf" (the resulting PDF before checking the Master Pages) - "Livre 5_B_after.pdf" (the resulting PDF returning to the Body view keeping overrides) - "Livre 5_B_compare.pdf" (a PDF compare of before and after, reflecting the changes) - "Livre 5_B.fm" (the FrameMaker 8 file before checking the Master Pages) Operating System: Windows XP --- The answer from Adobe Support: "Does this behavior stop if you change your default printer to the Adobe PDF printer and then re-launch FrameMaker?" Unfortunately not, I changed the default printer to Adobe PDF and restarted FrameMaker, I still have the same problem.

It sounds like the Body pages have been adjusted so that they do not match the default Master Page Right/Left pages.

Gabe, without examining your files, my experience is exactly the same as Arnis indicates, that the body pages have been adjusted so they don't match their master page layouts. It's incredibly easy to do this by inadvertently click+drag one of the body flow text frame(s), either moving the original frame or -- even worse -- duplicating the text frame so that there is one directly "on top of" the other.

Gabe, I had a look at the files. There is one Body page (2471) that is sized slightly differently that is causing the message. However, that wouldn't explain why there are differences on other pages in the PDFs. One thing I noticed though is that your "before" PDF has a much later timestamp then your "after" PDF. So this has me wondering if there were some other changes or things got mixed up. Anyway, I tried to trigger changes and didn't see anything different happen (in the PDF using Document Compare) with any version of FM that could read the file. I also was wondering why it's a structured file, yet there is no structure being used in the content?
