Thanks for your input Justus. I'll certainly take a look at JEuclid.
Interesting to hear about how you embed math ml in docbook too as that's
something I'll also need to address.
Thanks

Nikolai has http://www.grigoriev.ru/svgmath/
I.e. mathml to SVG, then incorporate the SVG into docbook/fo
There is also Apache FOP with the JEuclid FOP plugin.
I have used both methods; both have minor quirks but are pretty usable
and give satisfactory results for all of my current needs. I currently
prefer the latter, as it requires fewer processing steps than svgmath.
Then there is my own baby, http://sourceforge.net/projects/pmml2svg/,
which seeks to provide an XSLT-only solution by converting MathML to
SVG (for non-Gecko Web browsers, FOP without JEuclid, inkscape etc.).
It is currently working as a proof of concept, and I have a student
working on it, hoping to make it an attractive alternative by summer
2009.
AFAIK there is no 'recommended' way to get mathml (either kind)
embedded into docbook... yet.
Yep. What I do is:
- type individual variables and very short equations directly as
mathml
- type more lengthy math in LaTeX syntax into <textobject role="tex">
directly into the docbook source, followed by a
<textobject role="html">
<xi:include href="texmath/whatever.xml"/>
</textobject>
I have makefile-triggered scripts that create the whatever.xml using
a standalone TeX-to-MathML converter.
To reduce typing to a minimum, I use emacs-lisp code to create the
docbook math environments (<[inline]equation> and subtrees).
This setup works very efficiently for me now, but takes some setting
up.
