I created a 297-page manual for a client in WORD, designing a new template
for it. This document will be PDFed and printed. I used hard page breaks to
allow for how the PDFed version can be condensed and sometimes include the
first couple of lines of the next page on the output.

When two clients opened the file I e-mailed to them, it was 324 pages,
rather than the 297 pages in my version. Were all running WORD 2003, SP2.

The client sent the file (which opened at 324 pages on his machine) back to
me and its still 297 pages on my machine. We verified the margins on our
respective computers, and theyre the same. Were all set to print on 8-1/2€�
by 11€� paper. Since I havent sent them the new template yet, I tried
attaching my file to Normal template to see if that would change anything.
When I re-opened it, the file was still 297 pages.

The page numbers and cross-references are dynamic, of course, so this may
not be a problem, but Im concerned since I set the hard page breaks. Im
scratching my head. Would someone please shed some light on this?
