Font type changes after using the command dvipdf dummy.dvi

Question

When I try to change my document type from dvi to pdf, font type changes. To show this change, hereby I put two pictures from the dvi and pdf files, respectively.

I use this preamble in my document:

\documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{report}  
\usepackage{OkanFBEStyle}  
\usepackage{graphicx}  
\usepackage{subfigure}  
\usepackage{srcltx}  
\usepackage{boxedminipage}  
\usepackage{enumerate}  
\usepackage{cite}  
\usepackage{wrapfig}  
%\usepackage{natbib}  
%\usepackage{FBEbib}  
\pdfminorversion=5  
%  \usepackage[T1]{fontenc}  
%  \usepackage{winfonts}  
%      \usepackage[none]{hyphenat}  

There are more packages, however I could not type here because of the letter constraint. I hope this information is enough to identify the problem. Can anybody help me on this please?

Answer 1

This error is caused by microtype package. This package is compatible only with pdfLaTeX (and partially with XeLaTeX and LuaTeX), but not with anything that uses dvi format. However, the output of dvi->png and dvi->pdf conversion can differ, since the microtype instructions can be used in the resulting pdf but the measurements can be wrong.

Conclusion: Never use microtype with dvi.
