Hi all,

Currently mathtex does not have support for anything other than  
TrueType fonts. However, matplotlib can make use of the 14 'core'  
fonts that are part of the PS/PDF specs. The metrics for these fonts  
come from AFM files.

The question is how important are these as a feature? While I can add  
support for them into mathtex I am unsure exactly how useful they are.  
Mathtex will always be built with FT2Font (FreeType) so it does not  
have any advantages dependency-wise.

Hence, I am interested if there is a demand/need for them.

Regards, Freddie.
