Hi

I am trying to save a word document containing some equations as a single
web page. The problem is, during the conversion, equations became raised
text like superscript. The layout becomes awful.

Anyone can help advice how to prevent this from happening?

Thanks

MathType, the full-featured version of Equation Editor, has a
feature that lets you turn the Word document into a nice-looking
web page. The equations are perfectly aligned, print nicely, and
have a feature that lets you click on an equation and zoom in
150%. It's a commercial product, but there's a 30-day fully
functional evaluation that you can download and try.

Someone else suggested first turning the equations into images.
This won't work because either the images still won't be aligned,
or you'll have to manually align each of the equations
individually. Even so, the alignment won't be perfect unless you
use relative positioning, and if you do that, you first have to
determine the baseline value for each equation. On top of all
that, they look sorry when printed.

I'm "not sure" if the following is an effective solution to your dilema or
not?
Many of my web pages use "fifths of a second" and I have been unable to find
an effective solution for expression away from normal fonts, in accepted
html. For quarter, half and three-quarters, there are alt-codes.

My suggestion is to attempt changing the fonts Word uses for web pages to
ASCII.
With Word open:
TOOLS / OPTIONS / GENERAL / WEB OPTIONS / ENCODING / US-ASCII

On Word's end of creating web pages, this could possibly add more mess to
the standardbloat of Word created web pages.
