MATHML in Mozilla products is still buggy in Debian (old bug, see
#401533 and others).

To get correct MATHML display, you can edit /etc/iceape/iceaperc,
changing MOZ_ENABLE_PANGO=1 to MOZ_DISABLE_PANGO=1. However, this
only cures the *display* of MATHML. *Printing* MATHML still does
not work correctly. Also, disabling Pango has side-effects. Some
non-Latin scrips (like Devanagari) are not displayed (or printed)
correctly when Pango is off.

If printing MATHML is important for you, you can try to install
the Fedora Core version. FC cured the bug in December last year.

cannot get mathml fonts to work in Iceape or Iceweasel

[H.S.]

Hello,

I am trying to follow instructions to install TrueType mathml fonts in
Debian Testing from this web page:
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/mathml/fonts/

I think I have succeeded in installing the fonts (see the output of some
commands below). But I am not able to get proper rendering on this page:
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/mathml/demo/texvsmml.xhtml

Basically, I copied the ttf files to my ~/.fonts, ran 'fc-cache -fc ./'
in that directory and listed the fonts. Mozilla also sees the Math
fonts, but it seems to not know about them when it comes to using them
on a web page. Any suggestions what I could be doing wrong?

thanks,
-HS

After installing ttf fonts, here is what I get in my ~/.fonts directory:
$ ls
fonts.cache-1  math1m__.ttf  math2m__.ttf  math3m__.ttf  math4m__.ttf
math5m__.ttf  texcm-ttf
fonts.dir  math1___.ttf  math2___.ttf  math3___.ttf  math4___.ttf
math5___.ttf
math1b__.ttf   math2b__.ttf  math3b__.ttf  math4b__.ttf  math5b__.ttf
