Try making your ps file with dvips -Ppdf file.dvi -o file.ps . That
will use outline fonts for Computer Modern, which is probably what
the problem is.

Last I looked at it, KWord's PS output outputted PostScript Type 3
fonts, which display poorly in Acrobat Reader. I don't know if it
still does this, though, I'd need to see a sample PDF from kword to
tell. (I don't have it installed.)
