    Default Problem making a PDF <windows >MAC

    I have a site which is devoted to Madrigals and the like: I created
    it using a program called Noteworthy Composer
    ([url]www.noteworthycomposer.com[/url]) and it shews the music on staff with
    words and stress marks as well as playing the music for the listener
    in a modified MIDI file.

    MAC users cannot take advantage of this as there is no port-over for
    the MAC from the developers, so I thought to make PDF's of the files
    by printing to the Acrobat Distiller to produce same. (Acrobat 4.05 /
    WIN98SE)

    On my WIN machine I get a PDF which prints correctly for me, but
    several MAC respondents (for all I know it's ALL of 'em but three have
    emailed about it)get gobbledy-gook instead of clefs, signatures and
    notes. Letters are placed instead of the note-heads and I'm at a loss
    as to what is happening.

    One lad suggested something called "font-substitution" was occuring...

    I'm a musician, not a computer guru (no matter my wife's opinion,
    eigh?) and am stumped on this. I have 5.0 available but since I don't
    use XP I can't load 6.0 to test it.

    I've put the files I made up at [url]http://www.sosyourmom.com/kitchen.html[/url]
    and the main files are at [url]http://www.sosyourmom.com/madrigals.html[/url] if
    anyone would care to have a peek and perhaps castigate me for
    overlooking whatever it is I've overlooked.

    Be kind... I'm old and feeble, but very grateful in advance for any
    assistance rendered.
