MathMagic Pro Edition v5.4
Date of Release: April 7, 2008


* v5.7 - April 5, 2008
  • Added: MathML(.xml or .mml or .mathml) is supported in multiple ways: via File -> Open, drag&drop to MathMagic application icon, or by pasting MathML data in < math> tags into MM editor window. Exporting to MathML is also supported via File-> Export or Edit-> Copy As MathML.
  • Added: Hyphen, en-dash, em-dash, 'n'-width dash, 'M'-width dash, and figure dash('0'-width dash) are supported in Spacing template palette. 'n'-width dash, 'M'-width dash, and figure dash are using hyphen('-') character and enlarge the width to match the width of the corresponding character. 'MM~' fonts do not have en- or em-dash so MathMagic converts to 'n'-width or 'M'-width dash for 'MM~' fonts.
  • Added: option key based special character typing, such as • § ™, are supported when a proper font is specified in Preferences-> Style-> Math.
  • Added: Size and Location info of Main Toolbar floating window is now remembered, and Windows menu has a new menu item for reseting the location and size of floating windows.
  • Added: New compact MMF file format and Web savvy Compressed format added, as well as backward compatibility option.

  • Changed: Some Main Toolbar items relocated and resized for convenience.
  • Changed: Some Image export options are moved from Preferences->Misc dialog pane to File-> Import/Export options dialog.

  • Changed: Unlimited Undo/Redo supported so the Maximun Undo/Redo setting field is removed from Preferences->Misc pane.
  • Changed: All Template and Symbol palettes now have better color image.
  • Changed: 4 new Angle with Underbar symbols added to Triangle Symbol palette. 4 triangle symbols moved from Misc Symbol palette to Triangle palette.

* v5.42 - September 20, 2006
  • Added: A few new StyleSets with old MathMagic fonts setting added for those who prefer MM~ fonts to new MMa~ fonts, for the compatibility with older equations or Windows versions.
  • Added: Show Nesting Level is added to View menu, to help you figure out the depth level of nested boxes.
  • Added: When there is no bold face style available for a certain font used in the equation, MathMagic now manually generate a Fake Bold face by writing the char one more time with shifted 2% to the right. This value can be customized in the Preferences->Define Spacing->Export Margin & Others pane. 0% turns off this Bold face generating feature.
  • Added: PICT format can now be either Vector based(default) one or Bitmap based(new). This can be set Preferences->Misc pane. The setting applies to all PICT images in Copying, Dragging, and Exporting. Bitmap based PICT does not require the used fonts on the target system to display the equation. But the file size is bigger and the printing quality is limited.(It has 600dpi resolution so it should work fine with most display and printers.) Vector based one needs fonts on the system to display the euqation correctly. But the file size is more compact and there is no zagging even though you enlarge it.
  • Added: Align at Comma(,) is added under Format menu mainly for (many European) countries using Comma as Decimal Separator instead of Period.
  • Added: "Treat Comma as a Decimal Separator" checkbox is added in Preferences->Spacing->TeX Spacing rule pane.

  • Changed: About box dialog is improved.
  • Changed: A few of Show ~ menu items under View menu are rearranged.
  • Changed: More than triple clicks remain as triple click selecting a full line so user does not have to pay attention whether it is the 3rd click or the 4th.
  • Changed: The file format version is not recorded in the equation if dragged out while pressing option key. This may be useful for making equation clips so it does not complain about the file format difference when dragged-in later from a different version of MathMagic application.

  • Fixed: A few screen update bugs fixed.
  • Fixed: The right side margin of the Exported PICT equation had 1 extra pixel, which is now fixed. Exported EPS file also had somewhat wider width.

  • Changed: When clicking mouse on a character or template, it determins the position by the width ratio of 1/3 : 2/3, instead of half vs. half, whether to put in front or back. This is to improve the user experience. And the clicking on a subbox or small character finds the position more acurately as well.
