Well, you will have to get some genuine Adobe/whoever fonts.  PS fonts
delivered with gs are an abomination not suitable even for CRT's
(they have been generated from bitmap fonts from X11 distribution,
without hinting nor anything.)

If you get some true PS fonts, I wish you good luck finding AFM files in
order to generate tfm files needed for tex.
