Do not use bitmap fonts (i.e. computer/european modern, the default LaTeX
fonts), but type1 fonts like palatino (i.e. mathpazo), times (i.e. mathptmx),
cm-super or -- the best type1-version of computer modern itself imho -- latin
modern (which you have to install and load in the preamble with
\usepackage{lmodern}).
There are also the ae and pslatex fonts, but they are deprecated have ugly
glyphs.
You'll find lots of information in the tug faq:
