[Blindmath] Capital letters in MathType equations?

[Frankel, Lois E]

The preferences set when creating or editing an equation in MathType should be honored by supported browsers if the document is output using MathPage to an html file. That is, the preference-settings "live" in the MathML. There are some limitations for IE in particular. Neil Soiffer would be better able to describe what works in what browsers.

BTW, I did notice that while the rule does change pitch for capital letters in the Roman alphabet, Greek letters do not get the pitch-change treatment, nor (I think) do other alphabets such as Fractur.

Hi Frankel,
if I understand what you say, to configure math player, we can use preference-settings  in math type.
In this case, maybe that preference-setting in math type can modifing math player behavior in Internet Explorer?
Thanks, Mathieu
