Everything which is not a type 1 font is called type 3. This is not 
always correct.
PSTricks creates "on the fly" a vector font for the dots (a so-called 
softfont,
which is loaded into the printer) which is a vector font and _not_ a 
bitmap!
But it has not the same structure as a type 1 font. This is the reason 
why you
get it listed as a type 3 font.
