I tried the Xft enabled Mozilla build. MathML looks generally better now, but
also often wrong. For example a <mo>+</mo> or <mo>-</mo> is shifted upwards.
Also some characters as &notin; are anti-aliased, others like &in; are not.
Sqrts are displayed as two parallels lines, etc...
I have installed the Math and TeX fonts, both as TTF and Type1. I am using
RedHat 8.0.
We are working on an online course, so this is very important to us.
In fact Mozilla on MacOS X displays fine. But it would be nice to have an
anti-aliased version on Linux (the aliased one is mostly right).
