make sure turn off "preserve illustrator editing" on pdf options, embeds entire ai file inside pdf. given destination i'd them use pdf/x-1a:2001 preset flatten transparency , ensure everything's in cmyk.
the default raster resolution of 300dpi perfect commercial printing, newsprint tends run lower-quality; if can't 300dpi file small enough ask paper resolution require (150, 100, etc.) , change pdf export settings match.
