from the man-page:
The one current great shortcoming of ps2pdf is that except
for the fourteen built-in PDF fonts, it converts all fonts
in the PostScript file to bitmap fonts in the PDF file,
and scrambles the character codes so that the output is
not searchable. (Normally it produces 720dpi bitmaps, but
you can change this using Ghostscript's -r option.) We
intend to mostly fix this by the end of 1998.
Perhaps you can try with Adobe Distiller if you really need good PDF
files.
