      Hello everyone.

      I am attempting to export or print my portfolio as a pdf. I have facing letter size pages in landscape format that I would like to read as (1) 8.5″x 22″ page. It should resemble a digital book.

      Please help me print or export my pdf in spread format. I know how to export, but an error message appears.

      My first attempt was to print my document to pdf, but it only prints the odd pages or even pages. It does not print the pages as a spread. I am unable to print custom paper sizes for some reason. The only print drivers I have are Microsoft print to pdf, One note, and Microsoft XPS Document Writer.

      When I attempt to export or package my document, an error message appears saying, “Failed to export the pdf file”.

      My final method of solution was to package my file to try exporting on a different computer, but alas I receive the same error message.

      Has anyone been able to fix a file with an error like this? I have tried saving as a new file, but that did not help. Or can you help me print with custom page sizes? Maybe there is a pdf driver, preferably free, that has custom page sizes.

      I will forever be indebted to you if you can fix this! I am ready to switch jobs!

      File > Export, and in the Export Adobe PDF dialog, under Pages, choose the Export As Spreads radio button.
