Paul J. Hinton mentioned the appropriate support page at Wolfram that
was
very helpful. GS has to be informed, where the Mathematica fonts are
stored
by adding a few lines in the fontmap file. Just a small addition. Under
Windows NT the GS 6.5 installation comes with a lot of fontmap.* files.
The
directory-entries for the fonts of Mathematica have to be made to
"fontmap.gs".
Thank you very much. Also thanks to Alois Steindl for the hints.
