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.

        [hvmath, tmmath]
Please see
        http://www.micropress-inc.com/fonts

        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.]
