When I convert a 2 page document, 1 side colour 1 side B/W, to pdf and send to a photocopier via the pc so it is printed the photocopier counts each page as colour, as we are charged for each page we print and colour is much more expensive I wondered if anyone knows why or how to prevent it.
Word documents count correctly but not those via draw.
I spoke to the photocopier tech guys today and they can't explain it but also don't know draw.
I also have to turn the second page upside in draw otherwise it prints upside down - but not from Publisher is this a pdf/draw mismatch?

Same here color copy/print is 7,5 times more expensive than greyscale (I expect that by B/W you mean GREYSCALE model).
If I have file with color&greyscale pages then I’m creating PDF with settings:
output color as native
no color profile embedded
