You probably shouldn't leave the text as text, but convert it to lines.....a vector shape. This aids the printer, making it unnecessary to have the font loaded on his computer. By converting the text to a vector shape, his computer will read it as a vector shape, not as a font, thus minimizing the chance that his computer will ask to substitute a different font.
To convert text to vectors in Photoshop, just select each text layer and go to Layer > Type >Convert to Shape. Then when you save this as a PDF file, be sure to check the box to include vector data. The printing program will see the "text" as vectors, not as pixels, and the image should come out sharper and clearer than rasterized text made of pixels.
Be aware that doing this makes the type no longer editable as text.

Trying to design a business card for a business I am setting up.
Hers a rough copy:-

Anyway - no matter if I change it to 300 dpi & CMYK colour (need those set for printing), I cannot get the text as script like on this pdf document here, mine is a bit blurry:-

Any ideas?
