I've got "C:\TeX" listed there. I'm assuming that's okay since that
should include all the directories under it.

They're there.

It worked, but not entirely as I thought it would. I attached the TeX
file, and the log and pdf. The \exp, \cos, and \sin are all in Computer
Modern, but the x and dotless i are in mtp2. I haven't set up mtp2 in a
while - obviously - but I don't remember any special commands needed for
making stuff like \sin typeset in mtp2. Does the log file indicate why
that's happening?
Thanks,
Stan
