This is typical a question for taco since math italic fonts may have a
different char set than normal text.

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.
