Try this and tell me if it works:

Go to

 Control Panel | System | Advanced | Environment Variables | User
 Variables

and create an entry GS_FONTPATH and point it to

 C:\Program Files\Mathematica\SystemFiles\Fonts\Type1

or similar.

I remember that I also had to edit the [DVIPS] section of miktex.ini
(PSPath variable) in order for dvips to work correctly. But perhaps
this is not needed any more.

The trouble with Mathematica EPS files is that they don't embed fonts,
I think.

Best regards,
