Here's some details of what I'm using:

* Platform/OS: Windows NT

* Program/version of source doc: FrameMaker 7.2

* Software/version/process to create PDF: I create the PDF in FrameMaker
7.2 using the following process:
1. File Menu ... 
2. Save As ... 
3. Save As Type (choose PDF)
4. I leave all the FramMaker default settings when making the PDF.

* Primary purpose of the PDF: Online viewing or low-quality printing (no
high-quality printing required at all)

What platform and OS? What program and version is the source doc in?
What software, version, and process are you using to create the PDF?
What's the primary purpose of the PDF -- high-quality offset printing,
office-quality laser printing, online viewing, ...? 

You'll have to give the list more specifics to get a specific answer.
