+Optimal typographical results for documents containing
+mathematical symbols can only be hoped for with math fonts
+specifically designed to match a given text typeface.
+Although the list of freely available math fonts (alongside
+the Computer Modern and AMS extension fonts) is slowly
+expanding (fourier, kpfonts, mathdesign, pxfonts, txfonts,
+and others...) it remains limited, and the situation is even
+worse with Unicode fonts (XeTeX/LuaTeX). So if you can't
+find a math font which fits well with your favorite text
+font, and wish to still be able to typeset mathematical
+documents, perhaps not of the highest typographical quality,
+but at least not subjected to obvious visual incompatibi-
+-lities between your text font and the math fonts,
+try out mathastext: it will simply use the text font also
+for the math!
