    \section JKQTMathTextFontSpecifier_specialSyntax Font Definition Syntax
    JKQTMathTextFontSpecifier::fromFontSpec() defines a special syntax that when parsed allows to seth the font,
    a math-mode alternative:
      - \c FONTNAME : set the text-mode font only
      - \c FONTNAME+MATH_FONTNAME : set the text- and math-mode fonts
 
 
 
 
    \section JKQTMathTextFontSpecifier_specialNames Special Font Names
    This object also implements replacing special font names with actual fonts. Supported special font names are:
      - \c default / \c app / \c application - the applications default font
      - \c application-sf - a font for "sans", based on the application font
      - \c times / \c serif - a general serif font
      - \c sans-serif - a general sans-serif font
      - \c typewriter - a general typewrter/monospaced font
      - \c cursive
      - \c decorative
      - \c fantasy
      - \c monospace
      - \c system
    .
 
    If copiled with Qt>5.3 you can also use these:
      - \c fixed
      - \c smallest_readable
      - \c title
      - \c general
    .
 
    Also some sepcial fonts are defined:
      - xits XITS fonts
      - stix STIX fonts
      - asana ASANA fonts
      - fira Fira fonts
