in text equations in epub do not format correctly.

Question

Hi folks,I am authoring a text which uses mathematical equations quite frequently. (These are made with Framemaker's equation and not mathml) I notice, however, that equations (say a three by three matrix) leave white space correctly above the matrix, but that the bottom of the matrix bleeds into the following lines of text. Any way to fix that? The document publishes just fine as a pdf with no problem. thanks! Phil Wood

It kind of depends how the equation is set in FM and what paragraph style follows. This affects the CSS setting used in the epub for the line height properties and consequently the paragraph separations. You might have to tweak the CSS being used in the epub.

If you're using an anchor paragraph to hold the equation, then it may suffice to play with the spacings for just that one paratag in FM. It's sometimes necessary to use a different FM template that makes adjustments to the paratags in order to optimize the outputs created by the Publish module. You can then specify that the tweaked template(s) be applied to your FM content during the Publish step.
