Lots of experience with this. Here's my educated guess:

The font you ARE using is not acceptable to Distiller, and it wants to 
substitute Helvetica (the default sans-serif substitution font). But you 
have Helvetica turned off, or not the version of Helvetica Distiller 
expected to find.

Go back and change your print setup to NOT substitute fonts. That should 
do the job.
