It seems that .findfont can't find a font file that the PS file is
asking for. Is it possible that your Windows 10 is printing using some
new fonts that your CentOS doesn't have?

I'd try:
1. Use ps2ascii instead of ps2pdf+pdftotext.

2. Copy all font files from Windows 10 to your CentOS. Maybe put them in
~/.fonts and see if that could make ps2pdf happy.

Just my shot in the dark.
