We use our own fonts because we want the parentheses to display
consistently whether they're being displayed at normal height, as in your
example, or whether they're being stretched vertically (and similarly for
brackets and curly braces).
But the behavior is easy to turn off. Choose Format->Option Inspector...,
set the scope to global, and look for the "OperatorSubstitution" option.
Set it to False. Then re-evaluate the graphics-producing commands, and
re-run the Export[] command again.
Sincerely,
