            Bug ID: 101174
           Summary: Enable means to change Formula Editor default font
                    from OpenSymbol via Expert Configuration
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: Inherited From OOo
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Formula Editor
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

Current the Math Formula Editor is hard coded to use OpenSymbol [1] and
assigned variables FONTNAME_MATH and then as FNTNAME_MATH [2] and used as
FNT_MATH [3][4] 

There are a number of high quality font faces that have complete coverage of
the Greek and Character Like symbols that the formula editor makes use in its
specialized Symbols catalog, e.g. Cambria Math, Asana Math, STIX, etc. Any of
which might be preferred by users as functional replacements to the bundled
OpenSymbol font.

Suggest an ability in Expert Configuration dialog to change the font assigned
to FONTNAME_MATH, or used as FNT_MATH would be useful. It might be grouped with
the other org.openoffice.Office.Math StandardFormat stanzas.

This would be as an alternative to the general Tools -> Options -> Fonts:
Replacement Table GUI where the replacement is global for all use of a font,
OpenSymbol in this case. And if it proves popular, the ability to change the
default font could later be added to the GUI settings panel for Math.
