[MiKTeX] Size of pdf files

[Delmotte-Liseron <del...@ti...>]

Hi,

I created pdf files from the same LaTeX source, once
using pdflatex, the second times creating a PS file
and then in GhostView creating the pdf.

I was really astonished that the first had a size aroud 300kb
and the second 150.

Reason? Is pdflatex including the font definition? It is
important to know as, if there is no font included from PS,
then, I think, the display and printing could be bad on a
machine which doesn't have the fonts installed (ex.: cm-super).
