I am looking for a font that provides mathematical symbols of the form
commonly used by statisticians. These symbols are different from those
available from the GenMath and Symbol fonts in that extensive use is made
of accents. I require a font capable of providing the following, for
example:
_ ^ ~
X and Y and Z .
Moreover, the font must be capable of adding these and a few other
accents over top of all the Greek letters and both Latin and Greek
letters in Boldface.
If you are user of MacEqn, I would appreciate discovering if MacEqn has
this capability before I buy MacEqn--otherwise MacEqn is useless to me.
I believe my only other option is to pay CAN$1200 for MacTex and to invest
in a 30 Mb hard disc if no such fonts exist and MacEqn doesn't handle the
problem.
I'll post the results of this "questionnaire" in a few weeks to
"net.micro.mac" after giving some time to receive responses by either
mail, telephone, or e-mail.
