Data Merge to PDF (using the new single page export feature) does not work properly
Using the packaged folder attached, go to the Data Merge panel and select Export to PDF. Click OK on the first dialog box and in the second dialog box, make sure the "Create Separate PDF files" checkbox is checked.
Expected result - 6 PDFs that have correct content in each PDF.
Actual result - 6 PDFs that have incorrect content. PDF 1 is fine, but PDFs 2-6 are the same content as PDF 2.

This issue was fixed in an earlier release of InDesign.
Marking this as Fixed.

Merging to PDF is still broken. It doesn't matter what pages or records you specify, it will always result in a PDF document with all the pages.

SAME!
Having to create an InDesign file for 6000 records, then turn around and make a PDF takes hours I don't have.Then again... to merge and have NO page numbers, my bindery department is about to KILL me.

This is still broken and defeats the point of being able to PDF directly without creating a new InDesign file first.
