We want to convert a lot of legacy documentation to DocBook 5. This
includes MS Word documents written with MS Equation Editor 3.0.
Fortunately, these equations can be converted to MathML, similar to the
example below. The conversion is done inline, so the equations in the
Word document are replaced by their MathML text (no rendering). Now, I
have not found any convenient way to get these converted equations into
db5 documents using XXE. My naive hope was that I could simply copy the
MathML text to the clipboard from MS Word and then paste it into an
equation element in XXE. But, I cannot get this or any of the other many
variations of this that I have tried. There are hundreds of equations,
so this really must be done with as little manual intervention as
possible for each equation. Any suggestions on how to proceed?
Best regards,
Magnus
