I do a church newsletter that I have to send out for printing and I send it to a mailing list as well. I never have any problems with PCs reading things right. Do you embed the fonts? That seems to be the key because without it, it messes up.

Has anyone else seen errors in PDFs created by OS X, when viewed on a Windows machine?
I keep running into it - to the extent that I have to output postscript and then have my husband distill it with Acrobat on his work PC to get output I can count on being right.
I create the weekly church bulletin and monthly scuba club newsletter in PDF, all used both for downloading from their respective web sites, and for someone else to print final copies, of course :-( from PCs
99+% of the file will be fine - but then I'll have things like (text in parentheses) come out as )text in parentheses) or -text in parenthesis-
REALLY annoying!! I've had similar problems with dollar signs (in my most recent newsletter, one printed as a dash) and dashes - not special-character m- and n-dashes, but plain-vanilla standard-character top-2nd-key-from-the-right dashes.
