Are you using a lot of drop shadows and other translucent graphics? These can really make a PDF crash and burn on other machines.
I usually have to use trial and error, deleting certain elements, creating a new PDF, and narrowing that down until I find an element that is causing the problem. There is also a whole PDF troubleshooting section on Adobe's website. I can't find the URL right now, but go and search for PDF troubleshooting for more suggestions. > I create pdf's by printing my Appleworks document and instead of hitting > the print button I save the document as a pdf. > > Several people, to whom I've sent these pdf's via email, and who have > PC'S can open them but not print them.

Don't tell everyone everything you know 2. The software box said, "Windows XP or better," so I bought a Macintosh. "Macintosh.
