Hi,


your first problem may fixed by reading

http://support.wolfram.com/FrontEnds/Export/TeX/UndefinedMacros.html

in the FAQ's.

There is a long description *how* you get Mathamtica's
symbols from the extra fonts into PostScript graphics, in the FAQ

http://support.wolfram.com/FrontEnds/Printing/FontsInGraph.html

In principle you have to ensure that your PostScript interpreter
find the fonts and don't replace the unknown fonts with Courier.

Regards
  Jens
