Some PDFs print REAL BAD!

I have an OpenOffice original that I "print" to a postscript file th=

at=20
looks (in "gv") and prints (via "lp") correctly. I then use "ps2pdf" to=20
convert it to PDF and, in "acroread" and "xpdf" it still looks fine. Prin=
ting=20
from OpenOffice of the original, or using "lp" on the postscript file loo=
ks=20
great. But when I print ("lp") the PDF version, it looks like all the tex=
t is=20
overprinted (in very large point sizes) in the bottom left-hand corner of=
 the=20
page. My system is RedHat 8.0 and printing is via CUPS (which I think is=20
irrelevent). Other PDFs created via this same path print fine.
     The "data" is my professional resume which needs to go to prospectiv=
e=20
clients and/or employers as PDF: I am hesitant, therefore, to send someth=
ing=20
that may or may not be printable. (It looks and prints correctly from a=20
Windows 98 machine, too.)
     Any clues where I should begin?
