Hi, dvips scan you graphics for font resources and *if* you have the correct font entries in your map file dvips will include the fonts. The Map file comes with your Mathematica 4.x as well as the virtual fonts to for LaTeX/dvips. You must add the wolfram.map file to the config.ps of dvips and add the Mathematica type 1 directory to the search path of dvips. Or better make a directory TEXMF/fonts/type1/wolfram and copy the contents of $TopDirectory/SystemFiles/Fonts/Type1 into the texmf tree. You can't force Mathematica to use Computer Modern fonts, but you can typeset the whole document with the Mathematica fonts using the virtual fonts in the Inlcude directory of Mathematica, or you can use psfrag and the kernel alone to generate EPS files for psfrag package -- than the labels are typeset with TeX and no Mathematica fonts are used. But you have to use the kernel direct (without the Frontend) to use psfrag correct.
