So now you can choose between the old BaKoMa fonts and any Unicode fonts. Unfortunately, I managed to get the PS filesize for the BaKoMa fonts to be even bigger (over 2 MB for mathtext_demo.py). Can you see the changes to backend_ps.py I made John, and comment? However, the filesize is 1+ MB with the Times New Roman italic fonts (MS, Unicode aware). The StandardPSFonts (afm) don't seem to work, and it's not because the changes I made. One naming question. Is it OK to change the name of the classes like: Fonts -> FontBundle etc.? It's much more intuitive IMO. I have created a patch against the SVN. You can try changes I made by uncommenting the appropriate lines in the function math_parse_s_ft2font_common in mathtext.py, and you can change the MyUnicodeFonts class by adding your fonts. Does anyone now what fonts does OpenOffice use for its math stuff? And AbiWord? Feel free to comment Have fun, Edin
