Hi,
a) the FrontEnd used the Mathematica2.pfa font to draw (), [] and
{}. Since your printer can not find the font it replace it
by Courier and [] in Mathematica2 are @ and D in Courier
b) find the wolfram.map file and replace the .pfb with .pfa
when I prepare the file I had the binary fonts and it
was not clear, if WRI will include the ASCII or the binary
type 1 fonts.
Regards
Jens
