<br>
I've posted this to the math-font-discuss list earlier, but nobody<br>
seems to be there or willing to help.<br>
<br>
Although I have a lot of experience writing .tex files, I have no<br>
experience with the tex-live source codes. Hope I'm at the right<br>
address.<br>
<br>
The attachment shows that the rendering of the brackets in the<br>
different formulas is not very consistent. In my opinion, somebody<br>
ought to have a look at the rendering engine. <br>
