how to select the fonts when using mathJax to generate SVG from the command line

[caramelizedonions]

I am trying to make SVG formulas from the command line, like so:

>>> tex2svg '\sin^2(\theta) + \cos^2(\theta)' > test.svg

So far this works fine, but I would like to adjust the fonts. Specifically, I would like STIXGeneral for the numbers and math symbols, and Baskerville for the math operators and all "roman" font.

Update: by doing

>>> tex2svg --font 'STIX-Web' '\sin^2(\theta) + \cos^2(\theta)' > test.svg

I am able to get STIX fonts for the math symbols, but I still don't know how to change the "roman" font...

This is not possible with mathjax-node at the moment.  See  this discussion

https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/mathjax-users/0vn2WP6kT9c

for some details on why this isn't possible.  The discussion is about in-browser use of MathJax, but the issue is the same, and in fact your situation is even harder to deal with, because mathjax-node can't even measure the widths of characters as you can in the browser.  So this is not something that you are going to be able to do.
