Surface texture in elevation won't publish to pdf

When I publish this layout to pdf and open it in Acrobat Pro, all of the surface textures and colors are bogging down and will not display on the pdf. I have actually had this problem for years, ever since I started publishing elevations with surface texture fills and colors. I sent the plan set to the client and he could not open the elevation layouts either. How do I make sure that all the graphic information in my elevations publishes easily to pdf?

Operating system used: Mac Apple Silicon Tahoe 26
