Import Formula from File

This command opens a dialogue box for importing a formula.

The Insert dialogue box is set up like the Open dialogue box under File. Use the Insert dialogue box to load, edit and display a formula saved as a file in the Commands window.

You can import MathML files created by other applications as well. The MathML source must have a math element with an xmlns attribute with value "http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML". The languages MathML and StarMath are not fully compatible, therefore you should revise the import result. For details about the language MathML see its specification.

To access this command...

Choose Tools - Import Formula

Import MathML from Clipboard
