Re: STIXfonts & Mozilla MathML?

It seems to me that the right way to do this on a per-user basis is to
create/edit the file
~/.mozilla/firefox/<profile>/chrome/userContent.css and add something
like the following to it:

math {
  font-family: STIXGeneral, STIXVariants, STIXIntegralsSmall, STIXIntegralsDisplay, STIXIntegralsUp, STIXIntegralsUpSmall, STIXIntegralsUpDisplay, STIXSize1Symbols, STIXSize2Symbols, STIXSize3Symbols, STIXSize4Symbols, STIXSize5Symbols;
}

This overrides the corresponding MathML font selection in the
stylesheet Urs referred to, and displays variables in math italic and
not text italic (and not text italic as with Urs' method).

This does not list all available fonts, and I'm not sure which of
these are actually needed (probably all available in general), but it
seems to render my math correctly, including math bold italic and
stretchy characters.

I also removed my font.mathfont-family preference.

Thanks,
Justus
