Hi All, Finally I have found a solution even if I don't know if it is fully correct.
The following document can be typeset with the sans serif font «DejaVuSans» (when xelatex is used) or with the similar font «arev» (when pdftex is used). The mathematical part is correctly set in sans serif font and even a greek text (for an Euclid citation for instance) would be correctly typeset if the font «DejaVuSans» is used.
