this also means that such a dvips file will *not* work with pdftex because that
looks at the FontName when doing inserts, i.e. the CMR12 name is used for
identifying the font and then lmr is used as replacement (else we end up with
files where there can be lots of cmr fonts embedded); mostly related to
graphics using cmr fonts
