Here are some issues i had encountered with prosper that could get included in 
some "common troubles" section on the wiki:

- the infamous space after "fi" in pdf version, whereas ps version is OK
This is caused by the tex ligature mechanism. You have to use f{i} in your 
document to get rid of this.

- the awful fonts in included eps files produced by dia in pdf version, 
whereas ps version is OK
This is caused by rendering of fonts as bezier curves in eps produced by dia 
in default eps exporter. You have to use eps-builtin instead, see 
http://www.lysator.liu.se/~alla/dia/faq.html#ExportFormats for details
