Equation Editor not showing symbols

When I use the equation editor, all the greek symbols (alpha, lambda, etc.) don't show either in the equation editor, the word document nor the saved PDF file from the word document. They just appear as blank spaces. This annoys me, as I have a physics lab report with lots of greek letters-involving equations due in a short period of time and I am stuck at doing all the equations on another computer and take screenshots of them.

Because it works on my father's laptop (macbook pro), just not on mine (macbook).

With Equation Editor open, click Style > Define. These styles should
be set to Symbol font: LCGreek, UCGreek, Symbol.
