The text ran fine on my QMS, using the postprocessor I wrote for QMS.
The only thought I have is that eqn needs to know the resolution of
the output device.  Does it correctly know 300/inch?

There's also a comment in the eqn manual about it being tuned for
Roman, Italic, and Bold.  If your fonts are of significantly different
widths and/or aspect rations, that could be the problem, too.
