I have to make eps files with fonts embedded.
I use the following postscript command:

postscript("fig3a.eps", width = 5.2756, height = 7.27, pointsize =
7,horizontal = FALSE, onefile = FALSE, paper = "special",family =
"Times")

plot(...)

dev.off()

Are fonts automatically embedded in this way?

How can I see that?
If not, how to do it?

Let me read to you the help page:

     The software including the PostScript plot file should either embed
     the font outlines (usually from '.pfb' or '.pfa' files) or use DSC
     comments to instruct the print spooler to do so.

In the case of the Times family, all PostScript interpreters should have access to the fonts, but the DSC comments will list them to ensure this.
