Text disappearing in tagged PDFs

I recently upgraded to Acrobat Professional 9. When creating PDFs via ''Convert to Adobe PDF'' in Word with tagging enabled,?I'm sometimes seeing text disappear in the conversion process so that whole lines are missing from the PDF.

Using the print dialog to print to PDF works fine and does not result in missing text. However I need tagged PDFs to meet high accessibility requirements, so should be converting from Word. Has anyone else encountered this problem? The version of Word I'm using is 2003.

Usually when this happens it is related to the printer reflow that WORD does. There is a setting in WORD to select to not use the printer metrics for sending information to the printer. The other solution relates to selecting the Adobe PDF printer before you finish your layout, but you have already said the printer works fine.
