1) Make sure you are using a font that is also available in Windows.
2) Make sure both you and your client have the proper (and latest) versions
of print drivers.
3) Don't format your column widths (and page attributes) with so little
tolerance.
4) Test the appearance in Windows before sending the file to your client.
