Bill, Thanks for answering. I had the original Word PDF open in Acrobat, then I did a Save As PDF/X. The original PDF fonts were not embedded. I went into the Settings in the PDF/X Save As box and chose the SWOP color format, and allowed it to do all the "fix-ups" which includes embedding the fonts. The resulting PDF/X file showed all fonts embedded--yet had these weird spaces in it. The really weird thing is that I had done this exact thing once before and had no problems. I will try the conversion through PreFlight if I can figure out how to do it, and see if I get the same issues. I just cannot go through the aggravation and wasted time of this problem again!
