Did you try printing it on a PostScript printer. I think it will be
fine. :-)

In any case, the code you gave us shows the Angstrom symbol looking
"correct" both in my PostScript and PNG files. Because you mention PDF,
I tried that, too. It looks OK, except that the little circle is
touching the A in the PDF file. You can still tell what it is, though.

Cheers,

David
