Pdftops produces postscript which relies on the PS engine having
the fonts /Times-Roman and /Times-Italic built-in. Ie, if this
works then the pdftops output also should:
%!
/Times-Roman 24 selectfont
100 200 moveto (Times-Roman) show
/Times-Italic 24 selectfont
100 100 moveto (Times-Italic) show
showpage
%
Adding pdftops’ pdfMakeFont procedure should lead to a simplified ps
which demonstrates the error.
Pdftocairo, OTOH, uses fontconfig to find a substitute and embeds that
in the postscript. Here it ends up with the URW++ fonts from ghostscript.</pre>
