Ubuntu 8.04, ghostscript 8.61.dfsg.1-1ubuntu3.

ps2pdf turns Courier into Courier Bold Italic.

    echo foo |
    a2ps --borders=no -RB --columns 1 -o foo.ps
    ps2pdf foo.ps

evince displays foo.ps correctly, but foo.pdf shows the fault.

    bash /usr/share/doc/libcupsys2/examples/pstopdf job-id user title 1 '' foo.ps >foo.pdf

also produces faulty output in the same way. Using
http://launchpadlibrarian.net/20954728/pstopdf instead produces a
PDF with the same font as the PostScript.

So 8.04 LTS apparently also has the same fault.
