If you have the Acrobat 7 and Microsoft Visio, using PDFMaker in Visio (vs. 
printing  to a ps file and distilling) is recommended if the PDFs are to be 
used on-screen.  When using the PDFMaker add-on in Visio, you will have the 
option of converting Visio layers to PDF layers, and also have 
object-specific metadata carried over to the PDF.
