Then it may possible it includes bitmap, and not outline, fonts. These will render poorly in PDF. If you have the original tex file you need to recompile it and run it through dvips. The FC TeX setup should automatically use Type1 fonts except if you use T1 encoding. If you only have the PS file you are out of luck.
Thanks, Gérard. Yes, I only have the PS file and I am truly convinced that it was created with LaTeX+dvips. Paul
