Question

No more MathML templates, or study materials?

It's so surprising to suddenly realize that ID2025 has an extra MathML.
But it seems like everything is just starting, maybe later on some common formulas can be used directly with templates.

Are there any learning websites or template resources?


Thank you very much.

MathML is one of the ways to "describe" contents of the equation - there are no other versions of MathML.

 

The other one is LaTeX.

What specific MathML features have you noticed in ID2025?
Are you looking for ways to integrate MathML into documents?
Have found any official Adobe documentation or resources on this?


Previously users needed third-party plugins (like MathType or InMath) to work with mathematical content.

 

As of right now, I think what InDesign produces is an SVG and this format only supports RGB black, so it would possibly convert to 4 colour black in print, not bad for digital, but terrible for larger production in litho printing.

There's only one formula.

I don't know what the screenshot is I don't read that language.

 

I don't know what your point is? There's a sample equation.

Persumably the equations would be bespoke to whatever the content is. 

You have to insert the equation yourself. 

 

Is there an easy way to do it? 

 

Maybe ChatGPT or something could generate the XML required for the input.

 

But I don't really know what you need here.
