I've never had satisfaction with  "Save as Adobe Illustrator PDF".
So far as I know, the "Illustrator Development Team" at Adobe,
and the "Acrobat Development Team" are separate work groups.
The products have developed largely independently.

If you want PDF generated by Adobe software, then use Acrobat,
as a distiller -- it's under one of the menus, in Acrobat 5.

This is a more reliable route than PDF from Illustrator, in my experience.

Which revision ?
To find out, do:   pdftex --version   from a command-line,
or look at the first few lines of the  .log  file.

All the best,
