I'm not seeing a ps2pdf package to emerge.  Does it go by another name?

 I emerged gimp, but am still emerging krita and kde.  From gimp, as
 advertised, I was able to insert text and save the file as foo.xcf,
 but need krita, apparently, to convert the xcf file to a pdf, at least
 according to the tutorial.

I don't understand. Why don't you have gimp export it to postscript and then
use ps2pdf or somesuch? Or directly print it to cups-pdf, if installed?
