The pdf-files viewed with xpdf look exactly the same with the same number of pages. pdffonts show the same list of fonts, besides the names are shown differently, e.g., "RUKMHG+CMSS10" and "YPMWQI+CMSS10".
The third column of the pdffonts output (emb) tells you whether that font is embedded in the file or not. If you use dvipdf, you can use the options documented in the ghostscript manual to tune the output. I've no idea how to do that when using pdflatex. -- Kushal
