title: ps2pdf creates a very big pdf file from paps-created-ps file
body: <p>In linux, I use ps2pdf to convert text file report to pdf in bash script.</p>
  
  <p>To feed ps2pdf for ps file, I use paps command because of UTF8 encoding.  </p>
  
  <p>The problem is pdf file from ps2pdf is about 30 times bigger than ps file created from paps.</p>
  
  <p>Previous, I used a2ps to convert text to ps and then fed to ps2pdf, and the pdf output from this is normal size and not big.</p>
  
  <p>Is there any way to reduce the pdf size from paps and ps2pdf? Or what am I doing wrong?</p>
  
  <p>The command I used is as below.</p>
  
  <pre><code>paps --landscape --font="Freemono 10" textfile.txt &gt; textfile.ps
  ps2pdf textfile.ps textfile.pdf
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Thank you very much.</p>
