I remember that you are using the SVN trunk, aren't you?
If yes, then instead of passing the fontmap information to the texrunner
(which is still possible, but which you rarely want to do; use the new
fontmap keyword argument, then), you should be able to pass it to the
ps/pdf writer. This way, the fontmap can be set differently for PS and
PDF output. However, I'm not sure whether this works already - you're
using an unreleased version...
What should work is usinmg the new option psfontmaps and pdffontmaps in
the .pyxrc file.
