Tammy, are you accessing the default Print service that you can create in ArcGIS Server 10.2.2? I have been messing around with creating a custom print service, which I may still need to do to get some additional text on the map. In doing so, I tested the output pdf and realized that is it in fact a geoPDF. this is the case using when using my print service thru ArcGIS Online too (as AGOL administrator, I set my organization to point to our local service).
To test, save the .pdf and open it in Adobe Reader or Acrobat Pro.
- In Reader, you need to "Enable All Features", then in the Edit tool bar, select Analyst->Geospation_Location_Tool. You coordinates should display at the bottom
- In Acrobat, under tools, in the pulldown, check to display the Analyze toolbox (if not showing). Expand the toolbox and select Geospatial Location Tool. (side note: The adding of the Analyze toolbar "sticks" for me, vs the Reader which seems to ask me each time to enable all features.)
On my mobile device (ipad) I was able to open up in the free Avenza app by using the built in "open in" options of both Safari and Chrome.
I also tested this using some of the samples in Print webmap | ArcGIS API for JavaScript In particular I explored this one, "print webmap" using the "explorer in the sandbox" option. I changed 1) the mapid to one of my own (from ArcGIS Online), 2) the extent and special reference (mine is not the standard web mercator). and 3) I again pointed to my local service). I then test this, and it also came out as a geoPDF. My guess is it would do the same with the Print | ArcGIS API for JavaScript sample, but that will take a bit more testing to get my data and service inserted.
I hope this helps.

(p.s,..IF this does answer the question, please make it as such so others can find it.)
