You cannot just use any text font as a math italic font, you need to have
a special Math Italic font. If you have one installed and know it's TeX
name
(say from mathtime or mathptm), is should be very easy to use the font by 
using the whole block that's about math in type-siz.tex (from
\starttypescript 
math to \stoptypesccript). Put that section in a separate file and replace
the 'mi' font with yours.
