I'm working in Windows 10 using the latest version of Adobe inDesign.
Having trouble using Publish Online or printing to PDF wit hmy catalog.

Here's the error I get while attempting to Publish Online
An error occurred while uploading your document. Please try again. Error #16 ID: 17ee1940-cd93-11ed-bc18-839406b93b9b

The Adobe Print to PDF gives me the following error leading me to believe it could be something on page 99.

Would appreciate any assistance as I'm trying to get a catalog ready for publication.

Did you try and package the file. It may explain where the problem is.

Don't use "Print to PDF" at all, unless it's the only option an app offers. (It's the last-ditch way to get PDF output to all apps that aren't sophisticated to support direct export.) From InDesign, use Export | Print PDF instead.

Also note that PDF and Publish Online have very little to do with each other in result or functionality. But it does sound as if your document has a structural or content error. A "big hammer" method for fixing many problems with ID documents is to save or export them to IDML, then open that IDML document and save it (under a new name) as a regular INDD document. See if that fixes your export problems.
