   You have to look at the postscript file, that is generated by the 
   commands I gave in my mail!
   The problem is that, even when using cex=0.4, the symbols have a 
   different size! Also, symbol number 1 (the circle) is *not* effected 
   by the cex-option (maybe because it is too small to be made any 
   smaller).
   This all concerns only the postscript device.

   The only solution I see is not to use the circle-symbol for the
   postscript device

I have encountered the same problem and reported about 5 months ago.
