<h3>I have written a document containing a formula. I gave it to a
friend and when she opened it the user-defined symbols didn't work.
What's the matter?</h3>
<P>This is a known issue with <I>Math</I>. The user-defined symbols
are part of the user settings and are <I>not</I> saved with the
formula.</P>
<P>Furthermore the predefined user-defined symbols have localized
names, for example<KBD> %alpha </KBD>might be<KBD> %alfa </KBD>in
other languages, so that even these symbols can cause trouble.</P>
<P>There is currently no solution to the problem, but it is being
worked on.</P>
<P><I>Note</I><SPAN STYLE="font-style: normal">: When you export
formulas to MathML the user-defined symbols using the StarMath font
are correctly exported, other user-defined symbols are currently not.</SPAN></P>
