symbol font not expoting correctly to EPS from iplot in OSX [message #71295]

Hi,
i'm generating a bunch of graphs in which the title includes greek
symbols (using the !9 + !X way).
They show correctly, but when i export to EPS in vector format the
greek symbols appear empty. However, if i open the file with inkscape
(a vector illustration editing program) i can select and change the
type and the text is there.

This behavior seems to happen only under OSX (my version is Snow
Leopard), it also happens with different versions of IDL (i've tryed
6.3 and 7.0).

My guess is that there is some kind of font conflict, but don't know
how to solve it.

Any hints?

by the way, I'd also like to know how can i programmatically export
the iplot to EPS in VECTOR form. I just found how to do it in bitmap
(which incomprehensibly is the default format).

Thank you in advance for the response!
