{Searchable \PDF{}s with Type 3 bitmap fonts} {Tomas Rokicki} {Searching and copying text in \PDF\ documents generated by \TeX\ works well when Type~1 versions of the fonts are used, but works poorly, if at all, when Type~3 (bitmap) fonts are used. This is due to decisions made in 1986 by your author. We improve this situation with some relatively small changes to dvips.}
