    how did you make the PDF? What app did you make it in.
    Best way to make solid PDFs in my exp is:
    Print to a .PS file, then run through distiller to make PDF

      Thing is Baskerville, I create so many PDF's this is the quickest and easiest way. Plus you have the same control as DistillerDancer2/2

    are the characters and face(s) embedded in the PDF, or simply calling to system installs?

    • by default will embed characters used, but this can be omitted, so it might be your issue...madirish
