Fonts get funky when I send a PC PDF file to a printer with a MAC-based system
When I prepare a PC PDF file to go to a printer the fonts "default" ( some of the text, not all is uneven) when a printer with a Mac-based system uses the file. How can I prevent it from happening?

How are you creating your PDF? Are the fonts embedded? What is the subset threshold (should be 100%)? How are the Mac users opening the file? If they are opening the file in Illustrator, then the problem is that embedded fonts cannot be edited, and do not show up in Illustrator.

There is no such thing as a "PC PDF" or a "Mac PDF." A PDF is a PDF and will view on any platform, provided you have a viewer for that platform and your PDF is not corrupt.
However, there are differences between how the two platforms handle fonts (particularly with determining font names), which will be a problem if you aren't embedding all of your fonts. If you embed all your fonts, you shouldn't have any trouble printing your PDF (at least, no font-related issues).
