Using '-f fo' is undocumented, but gets the job done.

With Prince XML as css print processor:

* Install prince from https://www.princexml.com/
* Use 2 system properties for calabash configuration:
 Â -Dcom.xmlcalabash.css-processor=com.xmlcalabash.util.CssPrince
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ -Dcom.xmlcalabash.css.prince.exepath=/usr/bin/prince

I'm fiddling with mathjax generated SVG's now and will post a separate
