Ralf,
 in the latest TeXmacs from svn the pdf and ps generation are independent. So they could produce different output. Can you try to export directly in PDF and then check (for example via acrobat) if Type 3 fonts are still present. In general they are due to some mathematical symbols. You will recognize them easily if you look at the generated output at medium/small magnification since they look somewhat blurred with respect to the other glyphs.

I have run into another font problem: The postscript or pdf file exported from my texmacs file contains Type 3 fonts, which the publisher says is not allowed. Looking at the postscript source this appears to be coming from a postscript macro 'TeXDict'.

Could someone understanding the export machinery help me here? I have checked the exported pdfs from a number of smaller texmacs files and they don't contain Type 3 fonts. What might it be in the document at issue, that causes the TeXDict macro to be used?
 
Relatedly, does anyone know a tool that could help me find the text or symbols set in a Type 3 font?

Thanks,
Ralf

Please try with the latest version of TeXmacs; we have been working a lot on Pdf generation.
Both Max' native converter and the old converter (enabled from the preferences)
might produce better results.

Best wishes, --Joris
