Hi DL,

   I would suggest getting the SVN version of Batik.  There were recently 
a number of
fixes put in for dealing with 'complex' true type fonts.  Some of the 
problems you are
describing sound like they may be due to this.

  Also are you sure that Matematica1 has 'latin' chars?  By default 
ttf2svg just converts
the latin1 subset.  There is an 'auto-range' feature which causes it to 
emit all the chars
in the font, or you can specify a range to emit.  This could also be your 
problem.
