Suppose I set as default font (Options - Set Default Font) "Lucida console". The buffers are rendered in this new font. Then I do

  M-x ps-spool-buffer-with-faces

for the current buffer and save the Postscript buffer in a file, say foo.ps. Finally I convert this Postscript in PDF (ps2pdf).

The PDF is not rendere with Lucida console but, if I read corectly, with Courier New.

Is this to be expected. How can I have a PDF with the font I have set as default in Emacs?
How does the PS display? It's possible the problem is introduced by ps2pdf.

No, I just discovered that 'ps-font-family' is 'Courier', and it seems that things cannot change much. See for example:

https://www.gnu.org/software//emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/PostScript-Variables.html

"Legitimate values include ‘Courier’, ‘Helvetica’, ‘NewCenturySchlbk’, ‘Palatino’ and ‘Times’."

Wow. So basically `ps-spool-buffer-with-faces' does not quite do what is says on the tin?

Perhaps the documentation should be modified?
