Harry, Just a possibility: I've noticed that using the approach you described to create a pdf seems to create substantially larger files than when I'd do it on OS9 with "Print to PDF." Perhaps that's a clue that the "save as" approach is creating files with too much resolution, and perhaps it's the too-much-resolution that's choking your friends DOSasaur machines.
