Apple's `Symbol' font is noticeably different from Adobe's.

I would recommend using URW++'s version, which is visually the same as
Adobe's but is free and ships with Ghostscript.  To do so, you can for
instance convert your PostScript file to PDF such that all required
fonts are included:

  $ ps2pdf -dPDFSETTINGS=/prepress foo.ps

The resulting PDF file should use the right font.

Thanks,
