Your PS file contains subsetted TrueType fonts; the windows PS driver uses to assign character codes in ascending order as needed without conforming to any encoding schemes. On the other hand, the font snippets itself contain the propoer glyph names. Ghostscript uses the "ad hoc" encoding as setup in the PS file when creating the PDF, but Acrobat Distiller tries to reconstruct a reasonable encoding and/or a unicode table, which re-establishes the searchability of the resulting PDF file. You could try the latest version of Ghostscript instead (8.54), but be warned, I haven't tried it yet. Helge
