Hi Dan,

From what I understand, no, the javascript and fonts have to be on the
server.

I just installed an instance on orgmode.org:

Great!  So to use mathjax on orgmode.org (Worg etc.) :

  #+options: latex:verbatim
  #+style: <script type="text/javascript" src="/mathjax/MathJax.js"></script>

I'm not sure.  Maybe MathJax is faster once reasonably tweaked.

You mean org -> HTML -> ps?

Is it not possible to call firefox (or Xulrunner) in batch mode to
convert an HTML page into .ps?

If so, we can have two ways of producing org->pdf, one through LaTeX,
one through HTML...
