Are you converting to PDF by using the save function - or did you define an
Acrobat Assistant printer.  NSF changed its system about a year ago, and
even 3 gave problems if you use distiller to save as.

When you define the printer and print to the printer it brings up a menu and
asks for a file name.  Also, imbed your fonts.

> Hi,
>
> Here at the College of New Jersey we ran into a real problem converting
> files to PDF in preparation for NSF Fastlane submission.  We used the
> Adobe Acrobat Distiller 4.0 to do the conversions, then we view the
> whole proposal and saw that not all the parts were readable as Fastlane
> warns.  We then went to the Hints page and followed their step by step
> instructions but the results were the same.  When viewing and printing
> the whole proposal, we again had distortion and unreadable text.  Can
> anyone give us hints as to what went wrong! You can respond to me
> directly or to the list.  Thanks.
