Default Number of Pages changes between PC Word 2007 and Mac Office 2008

I have a document that I would love to be able to work on both my laptop Mac
and also my desktop PC. The bulk of my work is on the PC because I have
Adobe Acrobat installed there that will convert it to .pdf for publishing
reasons. (The .pdf produced by microsoft has not been confirmed to work with
the printers yet so I don't want to waste time experimenting).

I want to be able to work on the document on my laptop Mac while out of the
house.

However, I found that my document grew by 10 pages when I moved it to my
Mac. I checked all the margins, all the margins of the headers/footers.
Nothing has changed as far as I can see except for the increase in the number
of pages. The document has 360 pages on the PC and 370 on the Mac.

Somewhere there must be a change in formatting between the two computers but
it's not obvious to my naked eye.

Am I the only one that moves between two platforms? Am I the only one
encountering this problem and finding it an issue?

Since I am publishing the document, the number of pages can't change as that
will change the spine width .
I have the same Adobe font installed on both computers but of course, the
right format for the right computer.

I asked this question on the Mac Office Forums but no one answered. This
forum is much better at giving feedback.

Hope someone can give me a hint as it would simplify my life a lot more!

By the way, the number of pages increases between the two computers even
though I haven't even touched the document yet.

Thanks
