        As the person who originally suggested it, it IS worth the
effort if you look at it as a bridge to "smart PDF documents".  By
generating our own Postscript (on ANY platform) we can incorporate
PDFMarks - PS extensions that allow one to specify PDF features to
Distiller/Ghostscript.

        Agreed.   I believe the latest version of pdfTeX now supports
TTFs and properly writing them out to PS and PDF, so that's probably
a good place to look.
