To sum this up: 
  
  Problem with pdf2ps: fonts are converted to bitmap fonts 
  
  With pdftops [...], the conversion takes less time, the resulting file
  is smaller, and fonts are better preserved. 


If this is true, LyX configuration should choose "pdftops" if both tools are
installed. 

However, on my system this seems not to be the case:

* I have both, pdf2ps and pdftops (via package dependencies)

* still, the LyX-determined converter for 2.2dev is
  pdf2ps $$i $$o
  
Can someone confirm/refute this finding?  

Should I file a bug report?  


Thanks,

Günter
