That's very surprising, since when the characters are embedded, there's
no notion of characters (<text> elements) in the file at all -- it just
uses references to paths in the file that have non-meaningful names like
c_a2.

Too many variations --- yes embedded fonts work fine on Adobe SVGViewer.

The mathtext comes through in red on Safari, Adobe and Firefox.
Is this intended?
