I don't think it is a problem: see ?plotmath.  But the problem here is 
that you seem to want glyphs not in the plotmath set.

You have neither told us your platform nor the R code you used (as 
requested in the posting guide), so we cannot reproduce this.  But see 
?postscript and its section 'Encodings'.  You need to specify a 
PostScript encoding which contains your glyphs ... if there is one. 
Note too

See Also:

      ‘cairo_ps’ for another device that can produce PostScript.
