Most of the fonts and symbols necessary for mathematics are
available in the (plain)TeX system of Donald Knuth and even better in
AMSTeX of the American Mathematical Society.  In particular slanted
letters and appropriate Greek characters for equations.

Kellerman and Smith of Portland, Oregon provide an excellent version
for the Mac and it is marketed by Addison-Wesley and called "TeXtures".
It supports the laserwriter and comes with a complete set of bit-mapped
fonts (which look better than the laserwriter built-in fonts).
