How do you generate your .pdf compared with your .ps, or is it a menu

fonts) then use a converter (there are several) to generate a ps from

I get a ps file huge in size. Apparently, the whole document is being converted in to a bitmap file.


that?  Are there any that don't use gs, that would use the fonts in the
pdf file?

This may sound stupid (but it may work): there's a pdf to html converter
that turns each pdf page into a graphic that then a browser can display.
Would this round-about method work if the image could then be turned
into a ps?

Given what I wrote above, ODT->PDF->PS is already an equivalent path as this.
