Good Evening

I am new to the PDF requirement from Commercial Printers -- I'm Old School and have always just sent them everything on CD.

I'm trying to distill a .ps generated from Quark 5.0, Mac OS 9.1 (I know, way behind the times). Even the simplest of documents (the word "test" in 120 point anything) get caught up with the message:
"Helvetica not found, using Courier." then the distiller icon just spins until I stop it.

The font locations points to my hardrive:system folder:fonts and Helvetica is right there waiting to be found. I clicked off of "embed all fonts" but still get the error.

I'm sure it's pretty simple, but like I said earlier, I am new to the PDF requirement.

Thank you.
Tom.
