lol fixed

so, you get the error message but it displays the proper characters?

doc gets some characters?

meh, I blame this entirely on the lack of good support for dynamic fonts - oddly enough it probably wouldn't be a problem for IE _if_ IE didn't need something extra to support mathml anyways

so no problem once those hacks get dynamic fonts working, until then I'll still prefer downloading a few fonts over Acrobat, waiting for it to load and losing so much of the bonuses of a website

In addition to the s, You're using a p, not a rho.

And the stuff isn't really in the same place printed. (NOTE: I didn't print it out, I looked at print preview)

it's just a p to me, I can make it a rho if you like

if you like I can make it a peacock

it's the same place printed based on Firefox default margins

This ussually is the resonposinble for causing font error - download font messages of sorts.

[meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"]

When I make pages in a tool like frontpage or do a save as on a website, since I'm at Israel it sets the encoding to the charset of hebrew (windows), causing anyone who wish to view it to be "asked politely" (not so by IE) by the browser to download the conforming charset fonts.

Technicalities...*shrug*

It shouldn't have been a charset problem because SuSE used the HTML character codes, not a specific charset.

it's just new is all

(plus the lack of dynamic font support - never going to stop being pissed about that)

The error messages proved my basic point. PDF has its place, and it complements HTML.

...no it doesn't

It proves this is somewhat newly supported by moz, that the web needs a dynamic font standard and that you may need to download a few fonts (as opposed to a PDF viewer).

Wow.

Non-supported != Nonexistant.

...what's that mean? You using IE?

Obviously not.

I'm amazed at Brain's opinion that if IE doesn't support it, then it "doesn't exist" and you need some 3rd-party slow-as-crap program to do the same thing less efficiently.

Heh. Pretty much the _only_ thing I like about IE is that it has a solution for dynamic fonts. Other than that, generally if IE supports it, it's bad.
