Why isn't my portrait page numbering showing up on landscape pages after creating PDF from Word?

I have a lengthy Word document that has portrait and landscape oriented sections. The landscape sections have page numbering set up so that on screen it appears on the left, but in the printed book will have the page numbers in the same place as the portrait pages. For some reason when I create a PDF using the Adobe tab in Word and embed the fonts though, the portrait page numbers on my landscape pages do not show up. Does anyone know if there's a box or something I'm not checking?

 

I'm using Microsoft 2010. Let me know if any other details are needed!

Try saving the document as a pdf by using File>Save As and select PDF (*.pdf) from the Save as type dropdown in the Save As dialog:
