We here at my lab have had problems with scalable fonts when using just dvi
to pdf writer, so we use dvips but with the following (already supported,
don't know ver. number) batch file code, then use Adobe Distiller on the ps
file to get a pdf file. The dvips version is
@ECHO OFF
ECHO dvips optimized for pdf distiller (M. Steurer)
rem DVIPS.EXE -j0 -Pcmz -Pamz %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9
DVIPS.EXE -Ppdf %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9
pause
Hope it helps...
