+Thank you for using MicroPress Equation Magic Lite.
+
+EqM Lite has two very different parents.
+
+From TeX it inherited quality equation formatting;
+from OLE -- the ability to work together with such programs
+as MS Word, Excel, PowerPoint, WordPad, and anything else that supports
+OLE.
+
+EqM Lite requires WinNT 4.0, Win95, or Win98.
+
+To Install EQMLITE, unpack the eqmlite2.zip file and run the INSTALL.
+The installation will take about a minute; be aware that you would
+have to reboot after the install.
+
+To try EqMagic, click on its icon (the install will create a group).
+
+To use EqMagic, go to the "Insert Object" in the menu of your OLE
+application (it may be called something else) and chose "EqMagic 2.0"
+from the list of objects.
+
+======================================================================
+
+If you like EqM Lite, be aware of its two bigger cousins:
+
+ EqM Pro
+ -- OLE client with additional features
+ Click on [About EqM Pro] in the HELP menu of EqM Lite
+ for details.
+
+ VTeX Visual Equation Editor
+ -- Part of VTeX Pro
+ -- Equation Editor designed for visually editing TeX source
+ rather than OLE objects within non-TeX apps.
+
+======================================================================
+
+For additional details on this and other MicroPress products, please
+go to

+or write to
+ support@micropress-inc.com
+
+======================================================================
+Support:
+ EqM Lite is a free and unsupported product.
+ EqM Pro is a commercial and supported product.
+======================================================================
+
+ EqM is the result of 3-year effort by
+
+ M I C R O P R E S S
+
+ B.S. -- EqM 1.0
+ S.P. -- EqM 2.0
+ K.L. -- Interface library
+ A.K. -- Testing, Fonts
+ A.L. -- General supervision.
+ M.V. -- TeX import/export filters, general design.

+Y2K issues: Equation Magic is blissfully unaware of time.

+MicroPress is looking for Beta-testers for our new and experimental product,
+MicroPress IMP (Interactive Markup Processor).
+
+IMP is similar to EqMagic in offering WYSIWYG editing; but unlike EqM it is
+not limited to equations only: it allows to create complete LaTeX documents
+with the easyness of a Word Processer. No \backslashes and \commands to
+remember. The output of IMP can be exported as LaTeX, or PDF, or PostScript;
+IMP also supports all of MicroPress math font families.
+
+If you are interested in trying IMP, please email to us:
+ support@micropress-inc.com

+This file describes enhancements & fixes in the version 2.10 of
+Equation Magic, released on December 16, 1998.
+
+1. EqM 2.10 now automatically does the vertical positioning
+ of the equation within MS Word 97. This greatly simplifies
+ the use of the program.
+
+2. EqM 2.10 allows one to define the colors for the equation and
+ the background.
+
+3. Improved support for PowerPoint (previous version worked
+ incorrectly with some versions of PowerPoint)
+
+4. Added option : [Beep On Error].
+ Previous version produced (sometimes massive) beeps when
+ the TeX equation became temporary invalid. Now, beeping can
+ be turned off.
+
+5. Old WordPad support. EqM worked incorrectly with WordPad supplied
+ with the _original_ Windows 95. [Talking about all OLE clients
+ being the same...]
+
+6. MFC statically linked. This decreased the size of the distribution;
+ also it fixed the problems on the computers that had some versions
+ of MicroSoft Visual C installed.
+ [MicroSoft, in its infinite wisdom, released several _different_
+ versions of MFC42.DLL; EqM 2.00 would not work on the computers
+ that had other version(s) of the DLL installed.]
+
+7. Selectable Toolbar size.
+
+v2.14 additions/corrections
+
+\eqalignno will not any longer work in ordinary math mode.
+
+\eqalignno will not any longer draw (unneeded) vertical line.
+
+Background color selection added.
+
+\frac supported.
+
+An installation glitch that sometimes showed up under NT is corrected.
+
+
+v2.22 additions/corrections (4/10/00)
+
+Compatibility issues with Office2000 on NT SP4/5 resolved
+Compatibility issues with Corel9 resolved
+Large number of misc. bug fixes & corrections
+
+v2.30 changes:
+Support for other MicroPress' font families added.
+ [hvmath, tmmath]
+Please see
+ http://www.micropress-inc.com/fonts
+for additional information on MicroPress' font sets; see
+ http://www.micropress-inc.com/eqmfsets.htm
+for the details/examples.
+
+Resource leak in some versions of MS Word plugged.
+Workarounds for several other bugs which plague MicroSoft
+ office programs.
+
+v2.31 changes:
+MS Word 97 on German-only Win32 systems blocked access to the '\'
+character (needed to enter TeX text) -- a transparent workaround
+added.
+A demo PPT file added (ppsample.zip); this file shows a sample
+EqMagic based presentation which uses the new fontsets.
+[you need to have PowerPoint installed to view it.]
