Hi,
I may not be the best person to comment on this, but I think it has something
to do with Czech beeing unsupported by plain tetex-* packages in Debian.
There are four packages which add Czech support to TeX - csplain, cslatex and
cstexfonts and cspsfonts.
There should be one more package cspdftex. I didn't want to upload this
package as it edit pdftex config file and I didn't have time to investigate it
more.

This may concern also hr, pl, ru and maybe other languages too. You can see
the difference by looking at the resulting pdf files. .en, .de have nice
looking font, where .cs, .hr have some strage bitmap-rasterd look.

I'm looking into it right now.
