It's the way that the fonts are encoded in the PostScript stream vs. as an EPS.

There is no logical reason to export PostScript or EPS from InDesign CS2 and then normalize (Distill) it. There are "old" reasons to do so but those come from improper implementation of features in RIP/printers by the manufacturers (as in get the damned upgrade) or as some at Adobe call it "ignorant workflow habits".
