Does the error occur too if you don't output directly in the hot folder of
Acrobat distiller?
Try to write first in another directory and copy then the output into the
hot folder.
This worked for me:

options fmtsearch=(sasuser)
symbolgen mautosource sasautos=(cmacros,sasautos)
center nodate nonumber orientation=landscape papersize=legal
leftmargin=.25 topmargin=.25 bottommargin=.25;

ods _ALL_ close;
ods ps style=minSmall
file="c:\my sas files\pdf output\in\High.ps";
proc report data=sasuser.class nowd;
run;
ods printer close;
options notes;
