Hi everyone.

I'm going in circles.

I have 2 documents in Illustrator format. I want to create a two page PDF
from the documents. From Illustrator I can open each and print to PDF
(include fonts). Each PDF looks fine. I open the first PDF in Acrobat, then
add another page (the second PDF I made). It looks ok on my PC, however on a
Mac it looks like the fonts were not included on the second page. I've even
converted each Illustrator file to an EPS, then created a PDF from multiple
files in Acrobat. Looks good on PC, font issues with Macs.

New plan. Open Illustrator file, select all, convert text to outlines then
save as EPS. Use Acrobat to create PDF from multiple files. Fonts are messed
up in PDF. In all copy, the letter "l" is very heavy bold while the rest is
normal.

What am I doing wrong here. Why all the font trouble?? Whats the best way to
create a two page PDF from my two Illustrator files that will look good on a
PC and a Mac???


Subsetting? Here is what I'm doing:
When creating a PDF from Illustrator, using either "save as PDF" or printing
to PDF, it would appear that I am subsetting when percent is less than 100
(just discovered that setting).

If I use Acrobat to begin the process using "create PDF from multiple files"
I don't know what the settings are. I can't find a setting regarding fonts
(does this use distiller in the background?).

Should I fully embed the fonts to ensure compatibility on a Mac?

What is the best way to create a two page PDF from two separate documents in
Illustrator and ensure fonts will be preserved??

Thanks for any suggestions.
