2 possibilities.

textcomp induces the use of some TC PK font or you embed PDF images that
have Type 3 fonts included (e.g. PDFs made from EPS with some low-tech
software)

For fonts embedded by pdftex itself, just look at the bottom of the log
file : a list of the embedded font files appear. If there is a pk there,
then that's the thing.
