In pdftex.map the internal PS /FontName should be omitted. If you
include an external PDF file which, say, uses the font
/Palatino-Roman, the current version of pdfTeX tries to substitute the
font. It looks in pdftex.map for Palatino-Roman, but it does not
check whether the font is transformed and might fetch the wrong one.
Maybe this will be fixed in the future.
dvips neeeds the PS /FontName. It doesnt need it to find or load the
font but to tell the PS interpreter to use it.
So, at the moment we need two different map files.

Microsoft isn't the answer. Microsoft is the question, and the answer is NO.
