You gotta be kidding.  If I wanted to plagarize any prepublished papers,
I'd simply scan them in, and use OCR to get the text.  Now, if you are
sending the raw postscript file out, it seems likely that postscript
would indeed obscure the source text, but certainly if you are dealing
with sending or giving someone a copy to critique or review, you would
be giving them a final i.e. printed page, not the Postscript code.
I think it is harder to read TeX source files with all the embedded
junk in them (at least the last time I looked, TeX was a nightmare to
specify anything in.
