Supported MathML elements and attributes
Reading time: 3minReference for the MathML elements and attributes supported by MathType.
Summary
MathType supports a large subset of both Presentation MathML and Content MathML. This reference lists the supported elements and attributes for importing, editing, rendering, and exporting mathematical expressions.
Support may vary depending on the operation being performed. Unsupported elements or attributes may be ignored or simplified during processing.
MathML support
MathType supports three categories of MathML:
| Category | Description |
|---|---|
| Presentation MathML | Describes how mathematical expressions are displayed. |
| Content MathML | Describes the semantic meaning of mathematical expressions. |
| Mixed markup | Combines presentation and semantic information using <semantics>. |

Notes
- Unsupported elements or attributes may be ignored during import or rendering.
- Behavior may vary depending on whether MathML is being imported, edited, rendered, or exported.
- MathType implements a large subset of the MathML specification but does not support every element or attribute defined by the standard.
