I am converting pdf files to ps files using gs. I am able to create
valid ps files, but it is embedding the fonts in to the ps file. Then
when I concatenate a few of the ps files, it almost doubles the size of
the data. Is there something that I'm missing? The command lines I'm
using are:

gs -dBATCH -sDEVICE=pswrite -sOutputFile=filename.ps -q -dNOPAUSE
filename.pdf

Then to concatenate the files I am using:

gs -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -q -sDEVICE=pswrite -sOutputFile=catfile.ps
file*.ps

Any suggestions about reducing my file sizes would be greatly
appreciated.
