Right.

Well, I've just opened "p52003l.pfb" from the Ubuntu gsfonts package,
and Asana from the OFLB, and the pxfonts at
http://www.ctan.org/get/fonts/pxfonts.zip from
http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/pxfonts/

That pxfonts zip contains a few dozen small font files, with a lot of
maths related glyphs, and none of the standard roman glyphs "abcde..."

The URW Palladio has all the roman glyphs and none of the fancy maths ones.

Asana has both, but there are often some subtle differences from URW
and Asana, and sometimes not...
