Excel VBA "Rely on system fonts" error

Question

Based upon what I read in another thread, I may be missing some information on going directly to PDF rather than through a PostScript file. You tell me.
I'm driving multiple Excel VBA processes via MSAccess. I wish to print multiple charts from the same workbook to separate PDFs.
The first iteration works fine, creating a PDF of the chart with a specified filename. Subsequent iterations produce this error message:
When you create an Adobe PostScript file you must rely on system fonts and use document fonts.
Please go to the printer properties, “Adobe PDF Settings” page and turn OFF the option “Rely on system fonts only;
do not use document fonts.”
Note: Turning off the "Rely" option doesn't prevent the abend on the second iteration. Conclusion, a switch is being set that isn't being turned off. The real question is, how can I reset that switch, or avoid the issue altogether?
The code below creates a PostScript file:
  .ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintOut Copies:=1, collate:=True, ActivePrinter:="Adobe PDF on Ne00:", printtofile:=True, collate:=True, prtofilename:=PSFileName
Note: Another thread in this forum indicated that it was unnecessary to create a PS file and that Excel VBA can create a PDF directly.
If this is a distiller issue, and I can avoid distiller that would be great! But this is the code I use to convert the PS file to a PDF.
Set myPDF = New PdfDistiller
myPDF.FileToPDF PSFileName, PlotPath & PlotName, ""
Any solutions?

Yes. The Registry is locked down according to IT. I can't even access a command line.
I tried a VBA routine that calls SHELL to invoke regedit to add an entry for creating a pdf. When I ran it, it belched on the SHELL call with an error message indicating that regedit was only available to an administrator.
I somewhat doubt that the inability to update the registry has anything to do with the fact that the creation of a PostScript file is successful the first time, but unsuccessful the second time.
I've included the code I've tried below.
Any other ideas?
