Easiest fix: Download CombinePDF or Merge PDF to re-join the files.

Long fix: You could use StyleRef fields to create running headers without needing the section breaks. Scroll down to the Beyond Numbering section of this page:

I'm using Word in Microsoft Office 2004 on OS 10.4.11 to create a book PDF for a printer. The author has given me chapters as separate documents that I need to edit and format. I am copying and pasting these into my book document and using "Section Break (Next Page)" to create headers for different chapters and sections.

When I go to "File - Print - Save As PDF," I'm a separate PDF document for each section. I have used this process before without this problem--is something embedded mysteriously in the original Word documents?

Thank you.
