While it pains me to say it, your best bet is to design in Word and
export it to PDF. As I mentioned before, the best tool for this is
NetCentric's PAW. Currently, you need to use the legacy text boxes
versus the new types for them to be seen by PAW and to be put into the
PDF. While I haven't dug into it much, the new "textboxes" aren't
actual textboxes but are simply placeholders that vanish.
