To illustrate, ghostscript comes with its own fonts. Else it would not,
to my knowledge/recollection, know how to draw them.

A postscript file does not carry any font descriptions, only font
names. So someone (the postscript printer, or the preview utility) has
to have the font descriptions. I suppose the previewer could get them
from the system, but I seem to recall ghostscript having its own
fonts. 

A non-postscript printer will typically receive only job description
commands, along with the job data. From thereon, it has to use its
loaded fonts to actually do the font rendering.
