Jason:

The problem is that Pagemaker saves a copy of the last-saved version
so that you can "revert" to it. The solution is fairly simple, albeit
a kludge: 

1) delete everything you want deleted
2) save it
3) register a small change (eg, type a space onto a page, then
	delete the space)
4) save it again

This should work. If not, you could make (4) be a "save as", and
then save it as a template.

Good luck!
