Tammo was perfectly comprehensible to me: he wants to change the maths  
font used for alphanumerics to an OpenType font.

That's a particularly confusing example. I'll have to change that.  
Optima is being chosen as the mathrm font. So \mathrm{X} gives you an  
"X" in Optima. This is clearly not what the OP wanted.
