On Office 2007, Math Editing And
Producer Display
By Vinayak Nandikal
Planning for
Microsoft Office 2007..??
Why Do We Need a Plan?
It’s coming, we want to be ready
Licensing changes
Substantial changes to the interface
Potential support issues
Proactive planning ensures your feedback
is considered
When Is Office 2007 Coming
Coincides with MS Vista release
November 30 corporate release
January 30 release to general public
On campus license changes will vary
Not tied to Vista – will run on XP SP2
U of G Office 2007 Licensing
MS Campus Agreement
Will remain as Office 2003 for now
Can choose when to move to 2007
MS Student Select
Currently on hold until corporate release
new license and old media with downgrade
rights
Academic Select – other MS apps
Minor price reductions
Licenses discontinued (XP, Server 2003)
Changes to the Office Suite
New interface
Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access, and
Outlook
Home tab
Office Button access to file menu Ribbon
replaces menu and task bar
New and improved functionality
New functions lost if files opened in older
versions of Office suite
Changes to the Office Suite
New file format
Default is MS "Open XML" format (.docx)
Save to older file format (.doc)
Some newer features may be lost
Can import older files to new format
Some functionality lost
Reduced file size, better data recovery,
reduced file corruption
Potential Support Issues
Licensing changes
Old version, new licenses
New interface and file format
compatibility, collaboration, consistency
Training requirements
Activation
Grace period of 25 uses
Reduced functionality after grace period
without activation
Your Input Matters
Become an early adopter
We can provide licenses
Provide input on your experience
Compatibility issues
Potential support issues
Your feedback will help direct
recommendations to the community
Next Steps – Dates TBD
CCS/IT Admins as early adopters
Train CCS Help Services staff
Gather feedback on issues, etc.
Recommend a date for campus migration
- Spring 2007 or later?
Lab upgrade decisions
Change MS Campus Agreement license

Overview on Math Editing
8 math infrastructures inside and outside
of Microsoft enable better math
display/editing
New math edit/display environment
Interoperate with popular mathematics
programs such as Mathematica, MathCad
and Matlab
Incorporate into Office apps, Encarta
calculator, eventually IE
Complex Project
Intricacies of math typesetting
Creating/using myriad glyph variants
Vagaries of math notation
Embedding math zones into international
text environments
Interaction with complex scripts
Math in other objects like links, ruby
Input with nonASCII keyboards
Eight Math Infrastructures
[La]TeX: Current tech-doc standards
Unicode: Includes ~2000 math symbols
MathML 2.0: Math K – 12 and beyond
OpenType font technology: Special
math tables
New math font (Cambria Math)
Math layout handler
Shared math input components
MS Office environment, autocorrect
Math Spacing
Operators have math spacing given by
extended TeX spacing rules
Function object gives correct spacing for
math functions
n-aryand object gives correct spacing for
n-ary expressions
Automate much TeX “tweaking”
Handle context-dependent spacing of
operators like + - . , :
Vagaries Of Math Notation
Choice of subscript/superscript base
Function arguments like
Integrands and n-aryands
Absolute value ambiguities like ||a|-|b||.
Actually this example is unambiguous, but
|a|b - c|d| has two possible meanings
Context sensitive ellipses: … vs ⋯
Math Input Methods
Linear format input and manual buildup
Formula autobuildup (FAB)
Math ribbons
Recognition of handwritten formulae
Hex code input
WYSIWYG editing
Hybrid editing (combination of WYSIWYG
and FAB)
Autocorrect Examples
Type delta and get δ, Delta and get Δ
Define quadratic to be
x = (-b ± √(b^2 - 4ac))/2a
Then typing quadratic<space> inserts:
Formula Autobuildup
User types formulas in linear format in
a math zone
Expressions are built up as soon as
they’re syntactically unambiguous
Expressions can be edited in built-up
form or in linear form
Roles Of Space
Spaces are rarely needed inside math
formulae, since spacing is automatic
Use to terminate autocorrect entries and
expressions
Use as command to build up math objects
A space builds up one subexpression;
other operators build up as many as
they can
Font Math Tables
Specialized math tables have been
created to control glyph placements
Position subscripts/superscripts
horizontally using cut-ins and italic
corrections
Many math constants: axis height,
fraction rule thickness, etc.
Compare kerning of
The math tables are formalized as
OpenType tables
Conclusions for Math editing
Eight infrastructures allow better math
display and editing than ever before
High quality math handler and font
enable typography competitive with or
better than TeX
Methods such as Formula Autobuildup
Incorporated into Word 2007, Math
graphing calculator
Plan to add to PPT, Excel. Hope to add
to IE, …, and maybe future compilers
