What PS driver are you using to feed data to PrintPDF, and what optimization
settings are you using?
If you're using PS3, have a read of the PS3 manual, in particular the bit
about PrintPDF at the top of section 3. You might find that if you follow
the advice on settings, the problem will disappear. Martin has explained it
on this list before, IIRC.
