Try changing the font - if pdf will save ok with a different font the original font may be either partially corrupt or missing data.



A workaround would be to save the file as a copy and convert all text to outlines before saving as pdf (Select all, Type>Create Outlines).



After doing this do a Find Font for the font as spaces and other artefacts may remain after converting to outlines which could still cause errors.



Converting to outlines cannot be undone and text can no longer be edited as text so be sure to work on a copy of the original file so you retain the ability to edit the text later on if need be.

Your question is too vague. What version of CS are you using? It may be a preference setting or the settings in your PDF preferences. Be sure to check legacy in your pdf settings.



Without knowing what kind of machine you're using, the OS and more info on exactly how you are attempting to save the pdf's I can't help you.



Go to Adobe.com and look for the CS version help forums and ask your question there. Be sure to include the type of machine (MAC or PC) and OS and CS version you're using in your question. Tell them exactly what the error message says.



Good Luck

visit function/eliminate classes and uninstall all your Adobe Acrobat Reader utility. Then visit Adobe's information superhighway internet site and acquire the maximum modern one. installation that and it *could* restoration your challenge. in any different case, save it in yet another format and convert to a PDF with something different than Illustrator.
