Dear Statalisters,

When exporting a graph to PDF format Greek letters seem to vanish and 
when exporting a graph to EPS the italics formatting on Greek letters is lost.

* Here is some code to illustrate the problems:
gr twoway function y=x+0.1, text(0.5 0.5 "{it:{&pi} = Q}", align(baseline) )
graph export "MyGraph.emf", replace // THIS IS FINE
graph export "MyGraph.eps", replace // GREEK LETTER PI IS NOT IN ITALICS
graph export "MyGraph.pdf", replace // GREEK LETTER PI IS MISSING

Are there elegant fixes within Stata to these problems? 
(I am running Stata MP 64 under Windows).
(I know about manual solutions such as importing to 
Word and creating PDF from Word and EPS files. )

sincerely,
