Hi, I'm lookinf for a postscript font, to use with IDL, that has
math symbols, integral sign, partial derivative, etc. I asked
a similar question earlier and received some useful responses
explaining that the postscript symbol font has some math symbols.
Although it has many of the symbols that the Hearshey math font
has, some important ones are missing, in particular a symbol
for partial derivatives. I was wondering if anyone knows
of a postscript font one could use with IDL that has a more
complete set of math symbols. I'm trying to write a hearshey-to-
postscript converter so that I can print inputed math equations
using postscript fonts, which look much nicer printed out than
equations using the hearshey fonts IMHO.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance
