According to what you said, the fonts used in dvi and ps differ.
So I assume you are not using virtual fonts.
In this case, dvips checks the map file to see what PostScript
fonts to be used to replace pk fonts. Here are some entries
from Bakoma cmfonts.map:
cmb10 cmb10 <cmb10.pfb
cmbsy10 cmbsy10 <cmbsy10.pfb
cmbsy6 cmbsy6 <cmbsy6.pfb
[...]
The first column in each line is the alias and the middle one
is the real name of the font. The last column means "download
the font", so that if you use cmb10 in your document, then
dvips will embed cmb10.pfb into the ps file. If the first line
reads
cmb10 cmb10
then dvips does not download the font (from the hard disk) into
your ps file, so the printer font of the name cmb10 will be used.
(If you are using Ghostscript, you do not have to download psfonts,
since dvips and Ghostscript usually searches for the same directory
for the fonts.)
If the entry for the font you used cannot be found, dvips embed
a bitmap font (generated from the pk font) into the ps file.
What font map files for dvips should be used can be specified
in your config.ps with the command "p" (small case) like this:
p +amsfonts.map
p +cmfonts.map
Further question must be addressed to the real experts on the
list, rather than me :)
