Hi, the SystemFiles/Include directory include already the map fiels for pdflatex and dvips. The Math1 <-> Mathematica1 ... Math4 <-> Mathematica4 are mostly unchanged but the Math5 font has the gothic, the double struck and the caligraphic alphabet inside. Now Mathematica5 hold the caligraphic characters, Mathematica6 the ghotic characters and Mathematica7 the double struck characters. And so your trick work for greek letters but not for ghotic, double struck and some of the caligraphic letters.
