FWIW, I have the same problem: eps files produced on OS X are huge, and somehow broken. My guess is that the fonts that come with OS X have some advanced features, which should somehow be stripped out when embedding into an eps file. Perhaps one way to address the problem would be to use fonttools¹ to read the font file, prune the resulting data structure to include just the characters needed, and again use fonttools to output the structure into the eps file. ¹ http://sourceforge.net/projects/fonttools/ -- Jouni K.
