Review text

Dealing with fine mathematical text was for a long time a major problem for the internet browsers. It was common use to hand the data over to a third program that would process them locally to get a good result, typographically. Another approach was to produce little graphics entities to be included as pictures in the flow of the text. Now that MathML is getting more and more mature and as the major browsers are able to display MathML-code it has become much easier to present mathematical text inside an internet session in high graphical quality. MathML code is, to be very careful, hard to read or edit for a human, the treatment of MathML will in most cases be done by using appropriate software for its generation and maintenance.
