I don't know about 10.3 (out today), but 10.2's pdf converter sucks.
Create a graphic in Mathematica (Plot[x,{x,0,1}] will do). Copy it as PICT with
Embedded PostScript. Paste it into a MS Word document. Now 'Save as PDF.'
Guess what. No PostScript. OS 8 and OS 9 worked fine (with a copy of Acrobat
Distiller).
