PDF creation Problems

[dude K]

Hi, I'm new here and was wondering if any of you guys could help me.

I'm having major problems trying to create PDFs on my Mac (OS 9.2) using QuarkXpress 4.1 and Freehand 10. Seems to be a font problem, but some of the files I'm converting don't have any fonts in them at all! Please Help!!

The error message I'm getting is shown below:

%%[ Error: limitcheck; OffendingCommand: findfont ]%%

Stack:

Any ideas?

Hello,

Are you using Acrobat as a printer, or are you distilling? I found it best with Quarkie to save the file as a postscript output, and then run the file through distiller to make the .pdf
