Right. It appears I am not adequately equipped to answer your questions. I
contacted Sam Dooley, who is responsible for innovating the equation editor.
He said that anyone can feel free to contact him with questions. Please be
courteous. His email is sam.dooley at pearson.com if you have questions.
Thanks! Apologies for the misleading info.

Best,
Cricket Bidleman
