Font project for scientific and engineering community now released

I am sure there are many science teachers around the world jumping up and down about this project!

The mission of the Scientific and Technical Information Exchange (STIX) "font creation project is the preparation of a comprehensive set of fonts that serve the scientific and engineering community in the process from manuscript creation through final publication, both in electronic and print formats."

Designed to work with all web browsers, word processors, and other scholarly communications software, as well as all general purpose software - this development is a huge step in scientific, mathematical and engineering communities.
