With the following I can use ©,€, ¢, etc in postscript:
    /Bookman
      << /Bookman findfont {} forall >>
      begin
        /Encoding ISOLatin1Encoding 256 array copy def currentdict
      end
    definefont pop

I have two questions about this.

- Is it possible to write a function that receives a font that has to
  be converted?
- I need to use \251, because if I use © in the generated PDF I get:
  ©. Why?
