I have no idea but believe this will be as in latex -- you have
some font definition at the beginning of the document and then
macros to recall the chars. So you might be have one copy of each font
EXPANDED in the postscript file, but this is is irrelevant since
you can gzip the file, and "gv" and most serious viewers do parse
gzipped files on the flight.
