Especially because the font is part of your standard template, have you gone into the Distiller options and manually included the TT font?

It only happens with the parts that use our company standard font (ITC Stone Sans, a TT font). I hate to admit it but MS Word 2003 to pdf using the same font works perfectly. An added embarrassment is that the font is part of our company's standard FM template.
