LaTex not rendering correctly with macOS Ventura update

[sophial05]

Current behavior
After updating to macOS Ventura, the latex equations in my previous notebook failed to display correctly. Specifically, the \theta looks different, \tilde is now misaligned, and most importantly, all \mathcal are showing up as a squares.

Sounds like a browser/OS font issue with the upgrade. Our best guess is this is a MathJax issue, but we'll take a look when we can get our hands on Ventura.

Interesting bug.

\mathcal uses STIXNonUnicode-Italic which should be in Ventura per https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT213266

I don't yet have Ventura but will dig in when I can get it. It would be helpful if you can verify that you do indeed have that font.

Upon checking in my font book, I do not have nor could I find STIXNonUnicode-Italic, but in the link https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT213266 it also says that "These fonts are available only to documents that already use the font, or to apps that request the font by name.", so I'm not sure the font could be downloaded with font book...

As I compare MathJax(v2.7) rendering with Chrome and Safari on Ventura13.0.1 (22A400),
Safari has no big change, but Chrome has a lot.
Here is my colaboratory note with some mathematical formula:

After installing "Native MathML" from chrome web store, the rendering used to work well.

Not for me. Installing Native MathML still leaves me with squares. Though I have Sonoma not Ventura:

Safari is fine. Viewing with Chrome sites on GitHub or NBviewer is fine. Just the combiations Mac+Colab+Chrome is the problem.

Also, manually pasting in MathJax javascript src via display(HTML('<script src="..." had no effect.

I'm also eager for a permanent solution to this - I've been able to temporarily fix this in my own colab notebooks by creating a bookmark with the content below. I then have to click this every time I open a colab notebook ...

javascript:MathJax.Hub.Queue(["setRenderer", MathJax.Hub, "CommonHTML"]);MathJax.Hub.Queue(["Rerender", MathJax.Hub]);
