From the above list we can surmise that AMZ does not know how, or does not want to:

• Convert SVG files (no rasterizing to PNG or JPEG?)
• Display or convert MathML
• Proofread their help pages for duplicate bulletin items.

I can’t understand the “no linear gradient” rule. Does that mean no images with gradients? Are they referring to CSS linear gradients? Or is this a ‘conversion to black and white of gradients always look bad’ because AMZ hasn’t figured out halftone techniques?
