It might be better to use the usual PostScript LW35 fonts (Times,  
Helvetica, Courier, AvantGarde, Bookman, NewCenturySchlbk, Palatino)  
and add this line as first of the \usepackage lines:

	\usepackage{cmap}

This way all TeX glyphs will be mapped to Unicode characters, so they  
can easily be copied from a PDF viewer's window to some editor. It  
would make it necessary to use pdfTeX instead of simpdftex (latex,  
dvips, ps2pdf) though.
