Hi Volker,
I checked it again today and I could download the PDF. 
Maybe last time it was the problem you described.

Thanks!

Günter

The Collection extension [1] supports rendering math formulas.
Actually the Collection extension (with the back-end software 
mwlib/mwlib.rl [2]) is what's behind the "Download as PDF" button.

I just checked that page and exporting to PDF works. The problem you 
probably encountered was that rendering pages with lots of formulas 
takes some time. Now the page (and the formulas) are cached and the 
result should show up pretty much instantaneously (until somebody 
changes the page).

Regards,
Volker
