OK, I found part of the solution. It was a dvips problem after all: It
seems the type1 fonts have to be "downloaded" into the document.
I had to put a <myfont.pfb into the respective lines of myfont.map
under /usr/share/texmf/dvips/psnfss and I added a softlink to
myfont.pfb under /usr/share/texmf/fonts/type1
I think there should be a more elegant way to add the fonts than
adding softlinks, but anyway, it works.
