WORD 2013 will not print to PDF -not enough memory or disk space to repaginate or print this docment

Is there any reason that you are not just using the Save As pdf facility or the File>Export>Create PDF/XPS Document facility.

As you say that you can print to regular printers without the same problem, it would seem that the issue is with the Adobe Acrobat application itself.

Thanks Doug.

It takes a very long time when I use the save as and often many of the pages don't get pdf'd. Besides there are times when I need to pdf, select pages from the document and I thought print to pdf is the only way to do that. Are there other ways?

I posted on Adobe as well but they seem to think it's a Word issue since Acrobat does not repaginate. So I'm left between a rock and a hard place it seems.

It sounds like there might be some problem with the document itself.  Try copying everything EXCEPT the final paragraph mark and paste it into a new document.

Another thing that you could try if the free PrimoPDF converter, that will install as a printer and try using that to "print" the document to a pdf file.

Oh, Doug that would be quite the task for me to copy and paste 374 pages. I'll give PrimoPDF a try and post back the results.

One thing of note though. Many of the pages have background shadows around the text boxes, objects or images and when I remove the back shadow from one of the pages it printed fine without the 'memory-disk' error popping up. Don't know if it's just a fluke or if the cough is cured. It would be nice to think so.

I note that you may no longer have the issue, but you don't need to copy and paste the pages one by one.

To do what I suggested, turn on the display of non-printing characters so that you can see the paragraph marks (¶)

Then

1. use CTRL+END to move to the end of the document
2. Use CTRL+a to select everything
3. Hold down the SHIFT key and left click with the mouse to the left of the final ¶ in the document
4. Use CTRL+c to copy to the clipboard
5. Start a new document
6. User CTRL+v to paste the contents of the clipboard into that document.

Oh, I'm still having the problem. Thought it was gone but not at all. I suspect it could be as Guessed suggested below. I did try copy and paste a few pages and I suspect because it was only a few, they printed as opposing to a 374 pg doc.

Thanks for all you help Doug.

Just upgraded to Office 2016, never got this message before.  Now trying to print a 4 page newsletter.  some pictures in it.  Still file is only 1.46MB on onedrive.

Now I get this message.  "Support" on twitter has been beyond useless.  Yet, if I open the file using Word Online, and hit "print" which is really just a PDF creator.  Easy peasy, and then the Reader program will print this puppy like real quick.

So why NOW.  Been doing complicated newsletters forever.  Graphics Driver is up to date, and it's a Serious Nvidia GFX 760.

Progress at MS always means going backward.  They seem to work nights FINDING ways to inconvenience their customers.  HATE IT.
