Can you tell what you mean by "fuzzy"? Acrobat will use anti-aliasing
if the output is made using Type-1 font files (which looks fuzzy by
some definitions). If using PK files, you will get jagged characters,
which also doesn't look very nice.

What kind of printer does she have? (what resolution?) At what
resolution did you generate the PDF file? Which version of ghostscript
did you use?

The best way to generate PDF is to use Type-1 fonts (they were posted
to the list some time ago) and to use ghostscript 6.0 or better.
