what you get in the first example is reasonable: examine
the log file and you will see what is wrong. In the second
case, I have used the following code
 
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\usepackage{xunicode}
\usepackage{xltxtra}
\setmainfont{Minion Pro}
\begin{document}
abcdef (line 1) \newline
αβγδεζ (line 2) \newline
$ \alpha \beta \gamma \delta \epsilon \zeta$ (line 3)
\end{document}

to just get the expected results. BTW, I do not understand
why you are loading all these packages and why you declare
all these fonts when you are not using them?
A.S.

Subject: [XeTeX] Problem with greek characters in math

I 
should 
say 
in 
advance 
that 
i 
have 
almost 
no 
experience 
with 
Tex. 
So 
my 
problem
is 
the 
following.

When 
i 
compile 
this:

\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
abcdef 
(line 
1) 
\newline
αβγδεζ 
(line 
2) 
\newline
$ 
\alpha 
\beta 
\gamma 
\delta 
\epsilon 
\zeta$ 
(line 
3)
\end{document}

logically 
i 
get 
the 
first 
and 
the 
third 
line 
correct 
but 
not 
the 
second 
(the
second 
has 
the 
same 
greek 
letters 
as 
in 
the 
math 
mode).


However 
when 
i 
use:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\usepackage{xunicode}
\usepackage{xltxtra}
\setromanfont{FreeSerif}
\setsansfont{FreeSans}
\setmonofont{FreeMono}
\setmainfont{DejaVuSans}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{amsfonts}
\usepackage{latexsym}
\begin{document}
abcdef 
(line 
1) 
\newline
αβγδεζ 
(line 
2) 
\newline
$ 
\alpha 
\beta 
\gamma 
\delta 
\epsilon 
\zeta$ 
(line 
3)
\end{document}

I 
get 
correctly 
the 
first 
two 
lines 
but 
nothing 
in 
the 
math 
mode.

i'm 
totally 
confused 
with 
this 
and 
any 
help 
is 
more 
than 
welcome.
