Indeed, resolution 8000 is extremly large. This is a direct consequence of
using dvips-option -Ppdf together with a document that uses
pk/bitmap/pixel fonts. THe best solution would be to use Type1 fonts,
which in this case I think are provided by the cm-super package. Does
installing that package help?
This does not explain, why these problems only happened after the texlive
update. AFAIK config.pdf, which is read when -Ppdf is used) has not
changed resently. But maybe there was a modified version before?
