Hi Erik, when MathJax cannot use its custom math fonts, it replaces each character with a pre-rendered image (I think it has each character available in a handful of different sizes). At normal font sizes, the disadvantages of image fonts are not that noticeable to me (except that math symbols in links appear black instead of blue, because the images are only available in black). The main disadvantage is that font quality degrades when you zoom in. I have not tested if one can notice a difference when printing (theoretically, real fonts will look better, because the printer has a higher resolution). In the context of Static MathJax, the disadvantage is that the script cannot embed image fonts into HTML files, which is why I mentioned this in my email. The change to .htaccess had certainly not happened when I announced Static MathJax, as I used the installation at orgmode.org for testing.
