Well then, Poly, I must be Mr. Nobody, because I always at least look
at, and usually actually do modify default configurations to suit my
particular work habits.

To bring this whole conversation to a quick end, whenever I send a
document to someone that absolutely, positively has to look exactly how
I created it, I use PDF. It eliminates all the problems that you and
others have been describing. Email, at least in my estimation, was never
intended to be used a a means of conveying high level, complex
mathematical formulas, etcetera.
