Processes a document and either adds additional information to the MathML (e.g., speech text or image links) or replaces MathML with equation images.

Both Windows composer classes have the option to include speech text for the equations. This is an accessibility feature which generates phonetic text allowing screen readers to speak the equation.

You'll find documentation for the Java Equation Composer API and Java Document Composer API in the javadocs folder, which for Windows is specifically C:/Program Files (x86)/MathFlow SDK/2.1/java/docs/javadoc/com/dessci/mathflow/sdk/editor/. For other operating systems it's similarly in the SDK installation folder. You'll find the API for Windows components in this guide: Equation Composer API and Document Composer API.
