Description:
A PNG forced and rendered math/TeX Greek letter (for example: \Alpha\,) does not look like the same not-forced letter (e.g.: \Alpha) if you have chosen the “Math | Always render PNG” option in the settings. The first one gives an italic, the second one an upright letter. This problem appears only with Greek capital letters. With the standard settings (“Math | HTML if very simple or else PNG”) both variants are printed upright. In de:WP we have a list with Greek letters [1], where you can compare the difference between PNG forced and not-forced capital letters (settings in German: “TeX | Immer als PNG darstellen”). I have made a screenshot of this page section [2] with the above mentioned (not standard) settings.
