??? Normally it creates a table in Word with several slides per page. What exactly

Again, this sounds very odd. If you print slides to PDF you'd probably get one
*page* in the PDF per slide in your presentation, but not a pdf per slide.
You need to choose File, Print and choose your PDF printer driver instead of the
regular printer, then choose "Handouts" in the Print What area and pick however many
slides per page you want. That creates a PDF file that you can print, attach to
email or whatever you like.
