http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=897284 --- Comment #35 from Ulrich Deiters <ulrich.deiters@uni-koeln.de> --- The fonts I was using are "standard fonts", which should be known to each PostScript interpreter. Hence there should not be any need to embed them. If glyphs are missing in the final document, this might indicate that something is wrong with the way how dvips handles encapsulations, or that the font dictionary gets messed up. But I am not an expert for the innards of PostScript interpreters. I made some tests as required: (1) I ran the EPS file through eps2eps -dEmbedAllFonts ..., mentioned the transformed EPS file in the LaTeX source file, and then invoked "latex" and "dvips": The result was a white page. (2) I mentioned the original EPS file in the LaTeX source file, ran "latex" and "dvips", then used gs ... -dEmbedAllFonts -sDEVICE=pdfwrite ... With the option "-c .setpdfwrite", I got an error message. Without the option, the missing glyphs problem persisted. (3) I did the "sed -ri ..." to config.ps, and the problem disappeared!
