I'm not certain that my previous message will get through as the
attached example
was too large.

Here's a simple example from the W3C test suite:


http://www.w3.org/Math/testsuite/testsuite/Presentation/TokenElements/
mo/mo1.xml

On the same machine running Mac OS X (Panter), I do not get the correct
results with
Firefox but Netscape 7.1 renders the document correctly. Firefox drops
the minus sign.

I've checked the font settings and they are the same between Firefox
and Netscape.

I can't quite figure out why it would do this... :(

Any ideas of why this is happening?

I recall having the same problem a while ago... I think it has
something to do with the installation location of the fonts (not
necessarily the browser settings). It was a while ago, but I think
the font installation, and links to the installed fonts, were the
problem. Sorry I can't be of more help.
