I have a script that's used as a printer. It converts postscript to pdf and
sends it to the user by mail. The mail is pre-filled to be send to the final
recipient. For this, the PostScript's contents is searched for text. This does
no longer work because text is somehow encoded.

Example: Print the text "CDBA" in older Versions of OOo this produces output 
like
<43444241>
now it produces
<01020304>
This is absolutely unusable for searching.

A print of that file is absolutely okay because the PS contains an assignment of
each byte to the correct glyph. A PDF is okay for reading for the same reason.
But try to search the resulting PDF or to copy text out of it. It's hopeless.
