Thickness of lines in PDF from mellel with MathMagic

Hi everyone. I use MathMagic and Mellel. I compose the equations in MathMagic and copy/paste it in Mellel an then I generate the PDF from Mellel. Everything work fine. But the default bars thickess (in fraction or in bra and ket) is too thin. I can easily increase these thicknesses in MathType (usin...

What is the best font.

Hi everyone, Since I presume many of you know a lot more than me, please allow me to ask you this. What would be the best font for a book (textbook in physics) intended to be printed AND read on a tablet (like iPad)? I know, an easier question would be "What is the meaning of life":-) It d...

MathMagic equations chopped in pdf or when printing

Hi everyone, I use Mellel more and more. I use it particularly for scientific documents. I use MathMagic for equations. Everythings work very fine. Everythings look very nice. I appreciate more and more both software. But... But it seems that there is a problem when printing. The top of equations ar...

The same sad answer to both of your questions is: No. It is not possible. That's a shame. The auto-titles in tables would be really useful for me, especially as I am often using two images side by side, and need to put the images in a two cell table (anyway that's the way I had to do it on word 200...

I have tried to define a paragraph style with the automatic equation number at the beginning of the line on the left side (with a center tab) and I associate the style to the "equation automatic numbering". It works pretty well. And when I hit the "right to left" button, the equa...

Yes it is a problem. I can position the equation number at the right, but when I try to insert something (an equation) at the left of it, it jumps to the next line. Very weird!!! BUT, maybe there is a very simple workaround. I position the equation number at the left. With a tab I position the equat...
