POWERMATH PRICES AND ORDERING INFODownload the new PowerMath standalone application along with the newly released plug-ins for Adobe InDesign CS3/CS4/CS5. These will run in demo mode until licensing keys have been purchased.
Keyboard shortcuts have been enabled for InDesign/InCopy CS3/CS4/CS5. From the Adobe "Edit->Keyboard Shortcuts..." dialog, choose "Other" from the "Product Area" drop-down menu. Available keyboard shortcuts can then be assigned to PowerMath items from the scrolling list of menu items.
This Macintosh version preserves all equations while round-tripping InDesign, InCopy.
You can create new equations fully interactively in InDesign and in InCopy CS3/CS4/CS5 Macintosh (layout view, story view, or galley view).
The standalone application runs completely independently of any plug-ins or host document programs, and can create and edit complex sets of preferences (the PowerMath supersets), as well as create libraries of equation files as prototypes or for particular use within document platforms (such as InDesign) which support PowerMath plug-ins. PowerMath ASCII files can also be created by the standalone with MathML soon to be supported.
When the standalone is accessed by a PowerMath plug-in, fully automated in-document support of the above features becomes available, along with production oriented features such as global updates reflecting powerful transformation capabilities flowing preferences editing, vertical alignment points, and transformation within the document of equations to the alternative data formats.
Legacy PowerMath equations and "Supersets" through Mac OS 9 are fully supported--the equations via PowerMath ASCII import, and the Supersets without modification.
Custom Pi fonts for oversized glyphs which were used very extensively
throughout the very large volume of these legacy books and documents are
also currently supported by PowerMath, including drawing
and accurate derivation of metrics data for any and all of these oversized
glyphs, with no special concerns or workarounds as may still be required
for some related applications migrating to Mac OS X.
NOTE: For OS X, files designated for "System/Preferences" should go to ~/username/library/preferences, and the superset folder should be called simply "PowerMath Supersets".
