                    Overview

                    Equation composer

                    The EquationComposer class, which is available in both Java and Windows-only versions (including 32- and 64-bit versions), is used to generate images from MathML. It can produce EPS (Windows only), GIF, and PNG image types. To illustrate using class, several sample programs have been included in the SDK, as follows:

                    Sample programs

                    • Java
                      • Command Line Example
                      • Sample Java Application
                      • MathFlow SDK Servlet
                    • Windows
                      • Command Line Example
                      • Sample VB.NET Application

                    Document composer

                    The DocumentComposer class, which is available in both Java and Windows-only versions (including 32- and 64-bit versions), is used to transform MathML embedded in documents in order to add additional information (e.g., spoken speech for the equation in the Windows Composer) or replace it with images. It can produce EPS (Windows only), GIF, and PNG image types. To illustrate how to use this class, several sample programs have been included in the SDK, as follows:

                    Sample programs

                    • Java
                      • Command Line Example
                      • Sample Java Application
                    • Windows
                      • Command Line Example
                      • Sample VB.NET Application

                    Java runtime options

                    When using the Java version of the EquationComposer or DocumentComposer classes, the following Java runtime options may be necessary:

                    • Headless support
                    • Memory and large images
