Topic awaiting preservation: Jaggy Fonts

I have Illustrator 7 and I'm printing to PDF with a resolution of 600dpi... Most all of the fonts appear jaggy...WHY?

Is Adobe Type Manager turned on?

I have only *very* limited experience with PDF and Illustrator, but there are two options when saving - screen and print, right? Plus some options for embedding fonts. Have you made the appropriate selections there?

Does the problem exist when viewing on screen? Just when you print?

I don't have Adobe Type Manager turned on or even installed....

I have 600dpi chosen in the Print to PDF options. I will check to make sure the fonts are embedded, thanks.

ATM 3.2 is turned on, the fonts are embedded and they still are outputting to PDF extremely jaggy.... HELP! Where's Twitch when I need him.

Try this. Select all and convert to outlines before saving as a PDF. VOILA.
Control-shift-o on the pc.
