Professional Publications, Inc. (ppi2pass.com) publishes content in print, web, and e-book forms containing significant mathematical content. Originally, we were a TEX-based publisher, but we have been steeped in XML/MathML for about a decade. We are trying to implement a process whereby authors who have developed content in Microsoft Word with a MathType plug-in can cut and paste that content into a web form running on a Linux server. The goal is to retain all/most of the XML/MathML coding of equations, or to have post-processing where we end up with that coding after the submission. That's the bottom line.

Retaining the coding after cut-and-paste on a Linux-platform has stumped us. (This is specifically a MathType issue, not a Word Equation Editor issue.) Can anyone in this group (a) offer a ray of hope, (b) point to something, or (c) make themselves available for consultation?

We'll appreciate any guidance for moving forwards.

Thank you.
