Well, the help tells you, so please read it. E.g.
      Note that unlike ?postscript? and ?pdf?, ?cairo_pdf? and
      ?cairo_ps? sometimes record _bitmaps_ and not vector graphics: a
      resolution of 72dpi is used.  On the other hand, they can (on
      suitable platforms) include a much wider range of UTF-8 glyphs,
      and embed the fonts used.
