Word document to mathml?

Question

I have lots of word documents which contain math equations, some tables, and some expressions written in superscript and subscript. Is there a good tool besides MathType for converting my equations to mathml?

Answer 1

If the expressions are entered as mathzones in Word 2007 or later's in-build math formatter then Word includes a transformation to MathML built in, you can select (by an option in the ribbon) that if you cut and paste any math expression then they MathML version will be placed on the clipboard. If you want to bulk convert all the expressions in a document rather than manual cut and paste there is an old blog of mine on the subject at
