Dec 12, 2012 at 21:30 comment added Silvia As I use sans-serif for section titles only, serif fonts like Times and Constantia looks good enough in Mathematica TraditionalForm for me, so I never digged into your problem before. Sorry for not helping :(
Dec 12, 2012 at 21:03 comment added Jens @Silvia Thanks for your efforts. Mind you, I'm not against sans-serif fonts per se, but I can get much better sans-serif equation typesetting in LaTeX than I get in Mathematica, so I usually consider LyX my main typesetting environment and look at Mathematica as the external tool. Before that relationship can be turned around (with Mathematica the main typesetting tool), questions like this have to become a thing of the past first.
Dec 12, 2012 at 20:48 comment added Silvia Aurora is a LaTeX editor with output be graphics which can be inserted as an Object into any windows app accepting it. (I don't know whether it support other OS or not. In Mathematica nb on windows, it's something like Cell[OLEData["verylongencodingstring"], "Graphics"])
Dec 12, 2012 at 20:39 comment added Silvia For the Frankenformulas-taking-over-the-world problem, personally, I'm a great fan of serifs:) I use serifs and old fashion figures for text and formulae exclusively. So no, Frankenformulas will never take any tiny pieces of land from me :D
Dec 12, 2012 at 20:32 comment added Jens Is Aurora an Word equation editor? If we've come to that point I think it's a "Iosing" battle ("Iosing" spelled with capital i, of course, and displayed in Arial).
Dec 12, 2012 at 20:28 comment added Silvia I tried changing the UnicodeFontMapping.tr just now, and I'd say the result is far from pretty. While the font style looks OK, the weight and height is not consistent at all. So the only way to work around it would be using external formula object such as Aurora..
Dec 12, 2012 at 20:22 comment added Jens @Silvia So you're saying that Frankenformulas will take over the world after all. But I want to stop them before it's too late. Before I do mixtures like that, I'll revert back to Times overall.
Dec 12, 2012 at 20:00 comment added Silvia Mathematica uses its own fonts for special characters. You might want to check the mono version, which are something like Mathematica1m.ttf on windows.

Changed the second picture due to typo. Comments on typesetting quality.

Clarified "disjoint appearance"
Dec 12, 2012 at 7:36 comment added Rojo What do you mean disjoint from the equations in inline or displayed maths?
