Kelli has successfully PDFerated her doc, but has the
font oooglies.
First thing to check, Kelli, is whether Georgia is a true-type
font. If so, I'd recommend replacing it with the closest
approximation in Type-1 world.
When you PDF files (I know, I know ... but it's a GOOD
verb), TT fonts are interpreted as bitmaps. This results in
the jaggies, the oooglies, and the runnies. If your stuff is
destined for PDF delivery, always use Type-1 fonts.
