Stefan,

FYI, I use the FOP/Jeuclid combination to satisfy my XML+MML to 
PDF  needs. That way I can use MML directly or xinclude the equations 
as needed.

OK, thanks for the 
  info. I'm happy to adjust the build rules to get this
working. So far I 
  couldn't find any instructions on how this is done,
though. Do I need to 
  process the original .fo file to substitute the
MathML by SVG, before I 
  pass it along to the FO processor ?

Also, what are the issues that 
  makes the MML->SVG->PDF only
"acceptable", as opposed to "good" ? 
  Does this affect all equations, or
just specific expressions ?

Many 
  thanks for the help,
        Stefan
