This has been a long-standing issue with PS and Acrobat. In my experience, the first character in the last line of a paragrph always seems to partially get the ax. It only happens with san serif fonts and only with text set flush left (go figure.) The work-around I've found that has worked so far is to do a soft return (shift+return) at the end of the line above. Good luck!
Best current workaround to this phenomenom I found is to:
In "Save Adobe PDF" box, check "Acrobat 8 (PDF 1.7)" under "Compatibility:"
That seems to do the trick and not require "shift+enter" on each text line.

Is it substituting fonts? It may be substituting unsupported fonts to a default which is causing the cut off.

Wen you save a PDF make sure it is supporting the fonts. PS is trying to handle it better.
Tune in to Adobe MAX October 19-21 for new updates!

I agree his works. Thanks! The default setting for Print Quality in PS was saving a PDF with compatibility back to Acrobat 5. Acrobat 5 was released in 2011. Even Acrobat 8 is old, it was released in 2006. I don't think people need to plan compatibility with software that is 16+ years old.

Thank you. I have spent hours trying to figure this out. This worked!

It seems like it would be common sense for Adobe to start with the most commonly working preset, instead of the other way around... Hopefully they will see this and make changes. I have also spent tons of time trying to figure this out, also spending hours doing work-around fixes and not knowing how to make this change, until finally I tried this.

Changing the compatibility still didn't work for me so I ended up rasterizing the text and that DID work.
