My guess would be that the Aldus printer driver that PageMaker uses is
causing this problem.  Try holding down the option key when you choose
Print... from the File menu.  This will get you the standard Apple print
dialogs.  Then, after you click OK to start printing, press the F key.

I haven't tried this, but it should work (in theory).
