Printing MATHML

[Jan Willem Stumpel <jstumpel@planet.nl>]

I am trying out MATHML (e.g. using Firefox and Mozilla for viewing 
and printing the "MATHML Torture Test" at 
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/mathml/demo/texvsmml.xhtml), and 
while by now I have good results displaying the formulas, printing 
them does not work at all well. There are problems with "big" 
symbols (extending over several lines), like summation and 
integral signs, roots, brackets, etc.; they are missing 
altogether, printed too small, and/or printed in the wrong location.

This is rather galling because MATHML displays and prints well 
under Windows XP, both with IE and with Firefox.

Did anyone succeed in making "web math" printing work in Debian? 
With which fonts? Any special tricks? xprint or PostScript/Default?

note 1: my system uses UTF-8 by default.
note 2: I start Firefox by means of MOZ_DISABLE_PANGO=1 firefox,
        otherwise Firefox makes a complete mess of MATHML display.
        This is a known bug (361183).
