pdf document becomes blank

R

I'm having a perplexing problem. I've been using Word to make
documents then selecting PRINT then SAVE AS PDF then uploaded them to
a website for others to access. I did this for about 30 different
documents with no problem. Suddenly, beginning on a certain date, each
time I repeated this same process, the pdf document looked fine on my
computer but when I posted it onto a website for others to download
and they brought it into their computer, it was blank. I went into the
website, downloaded the same document to my computer and it was blank
on my computer as well. Now every time I try to create a pdf document
his happens. This is the error I get in Adobe Acrobat Distiller when
trying to convert one of the Word documents to a pdf

%%[ Error: undefined; OffendingCommand: –œ‡°±· ]%%
%%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%
%%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %%

Please help!

Hi Whatever Your Name Is:

That error seems to indicate that something is feeding an undefined command
into Acrobat.

What happens when you do a Print to PDF from within Word using the default
printer instead of the Acrobat Distiller printer?

It looks like a printer driver problem, but is it the default printer or the
Acrobat printer that's bad? Or both?

Cheers
