I am trying to convert my Quark 4.1 document to A PDF. It's not working. 

I have converted my Quark document into an EPS to make it compatible. Still nothing. 

I have even printed it to the Adobe printer and then tried to convert it to PDF per Adobe's instructions. After it goes through its process of uploading and converting status, I will get a message stating: Error. Could not convert document. It does not state why or list any suggestions. 

What am I doing wrong? And how can I do it right?

Please give more details. We can't see your computer or what you are
doing, so "not working" doesn't give us much to go on.

>I have converted my Quark document into an EPS to make it compatible. 

Not sure what you mean.  You should not be distilling an EPS.  Or are
you using the CreatePDF web service instead of Acrobat>

That may be good, but please let us know which instructions you mean.
There are an awful lot of different ways one might try to do this.

Apologize for the confusion. 

I am using Create PDF web service. 

I can easily convert my .doc files and it converts beatifully. However, I cannot convert my Quark files nor my .eps files. 

Please provide instructions on how I can convert these files? I am a Quark 4 user.

You cannot convert Quark files directly. You should make PostScript
files, by printing to file with the PostScript driver. Don't use Save
Page As EPS.

You may find it helpful to make sure the file is called *.ps, rather
than *.prn.  Not sure.  There is a forum dedicated to the CreatePDF
service.
