We are using 10.5 and have also noticed patchy results printing pdfs from VW files. Although the pdfs may look fine on our own computers, and on some other outside the office computers - they end up displaying as severly out of whack on, naturally - our client's computer screeen. I have checked up on the client and he is using fairly up to date Adobe software, so that isn't the problem (I don't think). If you look at how pdfs redraw themselves on the screen you can often see evidence of invisible layers - graphic information you had no intention of displaying that is hidden behind other graphics. My suspiscion is that this complexity of layered, redundant graphic information can overwhelm selected computers. Does someone have a good way of collapsing complicated, multi-layered VW documents into simple 2D single layered graphics? If so - I think doing this before printing pdfs could help.
But looking for your input on this problem - suggestions anyone?
