Yes you are right, by looking into the eps file I can see that the fonts are embedded in there (as a side note does anybody know of a convenient tool like pdffonts for eps?). So the problem is obviously not with PyX. Apologies for bothering you guys then... I will just need to figure something else out, as the text in my figures does not show up in the merged pdf compiled from my tex file by the system. I would prefer not to use a standard font for the figures, as the rest of the article is in computer modern too. I use the graphicx package to include the figures if it matters. Anyway these are problems I need to solve for myself, thanks for your help and keep up the good work with PyX.
